Llandegla’s Oneplanet Adventure say they are ‘delighted’ to announce the purchase of the Visitor Centre at Coed Llandegla Forest from the Church Commissioners for England.

Oneplanet Adventure is the UK’s leading Forest Visitor Centre famous for their mountain biking routes, along with their other offerings.

They say the purchase and signing of a new lease for recreational use of the forest will ensure the future of the site as the ‘Gateway for adventure in North Wales’ for years to come.

OnePlanet Adventure said: “The team at Oneplanet Adventure would like to thank CCE and Tilhill for their assistance over the years and we very much look forward to continuing the partnership long into the future.

“We would also very much like to thank HSBC and Development Bank of Wales with assistance from Hillyer Mckeown and the Welsh Governments Accelerated Growth Program who have all played an important part in enabling us to make this happen.

“As passionate mountain bikers, everyone at Oneplanet Adventure very much look forward to sharing our exciting plans for the future with you all early in the new year.”

On social media they posted the news to warm words from a large number of people, adding: “This is most definitely the biggest and best news I have ever had the pleasure of announcing. It’s been a very long road to make this happen. But now it has. Thank you to everyone who has helped us along the way 👍”
