Naming our New Development
Alongside the regular competitions for Best Garden, Best Garden Pots and Fishing, our residents also had the opportunity to name our new development here at Willowgrove Leisure Park. The new development will consist of 34 exclusive premium pitches. Nestled amongst beautifully landscaped gardens and open green spaces, this area will become home to state of the art, energy efficient luxury lodges.
The winner of naming the new development was park manager Garry Turtill and we can announce that the name of our newest development will be…
Nightingale Heights!

I’m a Resident Get Me Out of Here!
Willowgrove also held an I’m a Resident Get Me Out of Here competition this year, which was about as messy as it sounds – we really put our residents through it! Though we didn’t have the obscure celebrities, Aussie bushtucker or Ant and Dec’s one liners, we still enjoyed plenty of good-natured public humiliation – all in good fun of course!

After a day of (literal) trials, we could only crown one King of the Jungle – That slime-covered honour went to Simon Taylor!
Congratulations to all our winners! Same time next year?
