Once a popular seaside resort thronging with holiday makers, Pontins Holiday Park in Brean, Somerset, is now a shadow of its former self. Unfortunately became famed for its 'unhygienic' chalets and rundown facilities, it also saw some of its sites across the country sold off or abandoned.
As is the case with many British resorts, the rise in attractive package holidays abroad, paired with the global pandemic and staggering cost of living crisis, local tourism has taken a hit with a steep economic decline.
And now, with Brean's Pontins shutting its doors to house 900 staff from Hinkley Point C nuclear power plant for three years, the area is reportedly more derelict and sad than ever before.
