A NEW water park is being created in North Yorkshire as the Dawnay Estate invests in its offering at Wykeham Lakes.
Plans have been submitted to develop the site, near Scarborough, into a visitor attraction over the next two years, with an Aqua Park set, featuring inflatable obstacle courses, due to open in July.
Over the summer North Yorkshire Water Park will offer a number of open water activities as well as the AquaPark.
Robert Sword, Estate manager of Dawnay Estates, said: “North Yorkshire Water Park is a significant investment for the Estate and great opportunity for Scarborough and for Yorkshire.
“Our plans will result in the creation of at least 15 full-time jobs and will mean that we will be able to offer a wide variety of water-based activities for people of all ages.
“We are especially excited about the inflatable AquaPark opening next month which will be a fun activity for everyone this summer. We hope people and families will visit the Park, bring a picnic and enjoy the Lake and beautiful surroundings.”
