A popular Pontins holiday resort is to close for three years and be converted into a village to house 900 nuclear power plant workers. Brean Sands will be used to house hundreds of workers from Hinkley Point C nuclear power station.
The operator of Hinkley Point, EDF Energy, applied to Sedgemoor District Council to change the use of the site for staff working on the power plant. The site will be used for Hinkley Point for three years before it reverts back to its original use.
The existing facility is made up of 600 chalets , a leisure complex, swimming pool, shop, outdoor facilities including play areas, car parking and green areas, reports SomersetLive.
