2011 EDP Tourism in Norfolk Awards - Sustainable Award
Kelling Heath Holiday Park has again been recognised for its green credentials, triumphing in the Sustainable Tourism category at this year’s EDP Tourism Awards.
Recognising that the park puts sustainability at the heart of its operation and profitability the judges, including Archant Anglia Business Editor Paul Hill, said: “The environmental ethos throughout the company is endorsed by customers and staff alike, but has been implemented on the strength of cost-saving and economic benefits, resulting in true sustainability rather than superficial “tokenism."
Kelling Heath Retains David Bellamy Gold Conservation Award

Rufus Bellamy, British Holiday and Home Parks Association environmental advisor and one of the judges, added: "Blue Sky Leisure is a real pioneer when it comes to sustainable tourism. They are also leaders when it comes to welcoming wildlife onto their sites. They do everything they can to make sure that the parks are bursting with biodiversity."
