Caravan park name change over Trump

 A caravan park is planning to change its name due to the “negative” associations with Donald Trump which they say is costing them customers.

Turnberry Holiday Park, which is near the US president’s golf resort in South Ayrshire, said it was considering removing “Turnberry” from its name to counter “the Trump effect”.

It comes after the static caravan site canvassed the views of more than 1,000 people and found 32 per cent were less likely to visit the site because of its name.

Andrew Howe, the chief executive of Bridge Leisure Parks, which owns the holiday park, said: “We have worked hard to make Turnberry a wonderful holiday park and are concerned that customers are put off due to the Trump effect.” A decision about the name is expected to be made in the next two weeks.
