Popular Isle of Wight attraction Robin Hill Country Park has been put up for sale, with a guide price revealed as £2.25 million.
Following on from its earlier-than-usual closure, the company behind Robin Hill, Vectis Ventures, which also runs Blackgang Chine, announced the country park was going up for sale in October.
The Park comprises various attractions, including a 4D motion cinema, a 777 seater amphitheatre, a toboggan run, high nets adventure areas and playgrounds, as well as food and drinks options on-site.
Robin Hill is found on 88 acres of rolling parkland, natural woodland and Island countryside gardens.
It also benefits from planning consents for holiday accommodation to include 19 tree houses, 23 lodges and 40 glamping camps. The car park has 1,500 spaces and 12 coach spaces.
The park is also known as the former location of the annual Bestival Music Festival, and, in more recent times, has held nationally award-winning events such as Fiesta of the Dead and the IW Balloon Festival, which encourages tourists to flock to the Island each year.
Kay Griffiths, associate director in the leisure and trade-related team at Savills, says: “Robin Hill offers a unique opportunity to acquire a popular visitor attraction on the Isle of Wight.
"Tourism in the Isle of Wight amounts to roughly 2.6 million visitors a year, with a spend of over £280 million.
"The buyer can expect to benefit from the footfall as well as the local population nearing 140,000 people.
"This property has strong investment features as well as scope for further development with planning consents already approved, so we expect a high level of interest from a broad range of investors and operators.”
Robin Hill County Park has been brought to market by Savills.
