It’s a “Blooming Marvellous” Monday at Coldstream Holiday Park! We are incredibly proud to announce that our park has been recognised with the prestigious David Bellamy Pollinator Patch award as part of the 2025 Pledge for Nature. This award is a testament to our team’s hard work and commitment to creating a thriving environment for Britain’s wildlife.
Our success in this challenge is thanks to our extensive and well-managed planting. We’ve introduced a variety of species, with a special focus on creating a rich, welcoming habitat for pollinators. A key part of this effort has been cultivating an extensive area of clover, which our advisor, Chris, noted has created an excellent forage source. This has led to a remarkable abundance of insects, which are vital for a healthy ecosystem.
This focus on biodiversity has had a ripple effect throughout the park. The thriving insect population has, in turn, supported our local wildlife, including a flourishing population of swallows. We are also committed to the “Special Species” challenge to help protect swallows, swifts, and martins, creating new nesting opportunities and managing the environment to support them.
A huge well done to Brodie, for his efficient and sympathetic management of the grounds, which has dramatically increased our park’s biodiversity. The hard work of the entire team at Coldstream Holiday Park has not only helped us achieve this award but has also enhanced the beautiful natural amenities for all our visitors to enjoy.
Coldstream Holiday Park offers more than just a place to stay—it’s a gateway to adventure in the heart of the UK’s most historic and scenic borderlands. Perfectly situated on the banks of the River Tweed, which forms the natural boundary between Scotland and England, the park provides an ideal base for exploring both the rugged beauty of the Scottish Borders and the enchanting landscapes of Northumberland. Whether you are seeking a short break or a long-term escape, the park caters to every need with a wide range of self-catering holiday options, including luxurious lodges and contemporary glamping pods, some with hot tubs for ultimate relaxation. For those who fall in love with the serene surroundings, the park also offers static caravans and lodges for sale, providing the perfect opportunity to own a holiday home and enjoy unlimited breaks in this remarkable location.
We invite everyone to visit the park and see our efforts in action. Look out for the “We’ve completed the Pollinator Patch” logo to see what we’ve achieved, and keep an eye out for our new trees and hedges as they mature, adding to the stunning landscape.
