Aermont Capital agrees to acquire Park Holidays UK from Sun Communities

Aermont Capital has agreed to acquire the UK assets of Sun Communities, Inc., including its Park Holidays UK business, which is a major holiday park provider with more than 50 parks across the country.

The agreement is an all-cash transaction, with the total cash consideration received at closing subject to certain customary locked box adjustments, inclusive of the cash profits of Park Holidays up to the completion of the transaction.

Sun Communities is a real estate investment trust that owns and operates in the manufactured housing and recreational vehicle markets and says that this strategic transaction will allow it to fully focus on its core North American business in both portfolios.

“We are grateful for Sun’s partnership and support over the past several years,” said Park Holiday CEO Jeff Sills. “Together, we have continued to build and strengthen Park Holidays, and I am incredibly proud of what our team has accomplished. We look forward to the next chapter for the business under Aermont’s ownership and remain excited about the opportunities ahead.”

Charles Young, CEO of Sun Communities, added: “This exciting transaction allows us to focus on and drive growth through our core North American MH and RV platform. We will remain disciplined in our capital allocation approach, which includes investing in our high-quality communities, identifying attractive external MH and RV growth opportunities and returning capital to shareholders.

“We would like to thank the entire Park Holidays team for their commitment, partnership and contributions throughout our ownership. We appreciate all that we have accomplished together and believe the business is well-positioned for continued success under Aermont’s ownership.”

The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions and approval from the UK Financial Conduct Authority.

Originally founded in 1984, Park Holidays UK began in Rye in East Sussex. It was acquired by Sun Communities in April 2022.
