Beverley Holidays is leading the way in eco-tourism in 2025, with the UK’s first ever entirely solar powered caravan.

Created in a collaboration with Victory Leisure Homes and Rix Electrical Services, it is situated in the English Riviera UNESCO Global Geopark.

Bookings are now open for the caravan at Beverley Holidays, a fourth-generation family-owned holiday park in Paignton, South Devon.

The Signature Eco blends cutting-edge renewable energy tech with luxury and comfort.

“This initiative is a reflection of our family’s values and our commitment to keeping Paignton clean and green,” said Nicola Furneaux, Director of Beverley Holidays.

The Signature Eco Solar caters to families, couples and solo travelers offering both comfort and sustainability.

Equipped with a 10-panel, 4kW solar system, it generates clean energy, while a 5.2kW Sunsynk battery ensures efficient storage.

It features superior insulation, double glazing, and energy-efficient appliances as well as a Sunamp heat cell which provides hot water for up to 10-days with minimal energy use.

Additionally, an energy management system prioritises power allocation, reducing reliance on the grid by up to 80.

The Signature Eco has been championed by the English Riviera BID Company, which continues to promote sustainable tourism in the region.

Beverley Holidays guests can enjoy sustainable adventures at local attractions such as the South West Coast PathPaignton Zoo, and Berry Head Nature Reserve.

The English Riviera is also home to a thriving holiday park industry, offering a diverse range of accommodations, including modern caravans, lodges, chalets, and touring pitches.
