It has been under the ownership of the Menzies family for 100 years, so is truly entering a new era.<\/p>\n<p>John Morphet, owner of Pure Leisure Group, said: \u201cIt was simply an opportunity we couldn\u2019t miss. Robin and his predecessors have created an impressive destination. The large and loyal customer base is a testament to the hard work of Robin and the staff at Mains<\/p>\n<p>Robin Menzies of Mains of Taymouth said: \u201cWe as a family have put our heart and soul into making the estate the best it can be and are very proud of creating thousands of quality customer experiences over the years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPure Leisure are the ideal custodian of the estate and will bring both experience and fresh ideas to taking the estate forward.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mains of Taymouth will now become a part of Pure Leisure Group\u2019s Royal Westmoreland brand.<\/p>\n<p>Richard Moss, Head of UK Parks Agency at Colliers added: \u201cThe estate has been in the family for 100 years and therefore it was crucial that we found an appropriate buyer. We\u2019re totally confident that Pure Leisure\u2019s arrival will be nothing but good news for customers, staff and indeed the area.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pure Leisure Group intend to continue the development work on park that has already commenced, which includes the addition of further lodges plus some new holiday accommodation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The deal
