Holy Loch Marina on the Cowal Peninsula in Scotland has been sold to Tingdene Group.
The 250-berth marina in Sandbank, Argyll, includes indoor and outdoor hard standing, as well as ancillary services.
Christie & Co handled the sale on behalf of the Downs family. The family had managed the marina since the passing of their father, Matthew Downs.
Originally home to two boat builders in the late 1800s, the site later served as a submarine base in World War II. It has since become a popular boating destination.
The marina also partners with the Scottish Forestry Commission through the TimberLINK project, transporting logs by cargo vessel.
“This is a natural and welcome addition to our growing marina portfolio,” said Ian Collier, Managing Director of Tingdene Group. “Its location and berth holder community make it an ideal fit.”
Alison Downs, former co-owner, said: “We felt it was time to move the business onto a group with a strong portfolio who could take the marina to the next level.”
The sale expands Tingdene’s marine portfolio to 12 sites and marks its first step into Scottish waters.
Operations Director Steve Arber said: “We’re incredibly proud to become part of this well-established boating family and respectful of the legacy built here.”
Christie & Co’s Mark Lavery added: “We quickly identified a buyer who aligned with the seller’s ethos and hopes for the marina’s future.”
