Entertainment Special: Introducing Our New Friends, The Beach Buddies!

Share it!

Join us next season on our biggest adventure yet with our brand new all-singing, all-dancing team, the wonderful Beach Buddies!

A holiday to the North Wales coast wouldn’t be the same without the well-known Leo, Milo, and Hetty, who have been making friends and entertaining crowds at Lyons Robin Hood for many years. Our well-known trio has been welcoming families to the park for many seasons, have helped create precious family memories with many breakfasts, activities, and have even taught youngsters and parents a dance move or two!

What have the Beach Buddies been up to?

But like every one of our wonderful guests and owners who love to escape for a few days rest, our iconic buddies deserve a bit of a break too! According to social media, the gang took a much-needed retreat at a luxury spa in Kenya. We hear they’ve been pampered from head to toe, partook in lots of relaxing activities and caught up on some much-needed beauty sleep!

This comes as no surprise after such an action-packed 2021 season at our flagship park in Rhyl. They couldn’t stop talking about all the wonderful boys and girls they met and reminisced about the epic weekend event, Party in the Park, where they wowed crowds on-stage. Although they’re born for the holiday park life, we’re super glad to hear they took some time out and are set to come back better, brighter (and lighter, no more Ozzy Stack Burgers!) ready for a cracking 2022 season. Take a look at our entertainment page for the latest information on all of our events.

Being the chatty and friendly bunch of buds that they are, it was beyond easy for them to make friends at the spa in Kenya. And their glow-up and the new look isn’t the only exciting thing to look forward to this season…

What’s new with the Beach Buddies?

Leo, Milo and Hetty were forever talking about their fabulous life on the North Wales coast, where there’s plenty of golden sands, blue skies, and rolling waves to play in. This caught the attention of a particular safari animal who was longing to return to the UK, having toured Kenya for many seasons! It wasn’t long before the Beach Buddies extended an invitation, sorted the plane tickets, and Zoomed our team at Lyons Robin Hood to see if there was room for an extra special someone this summer.

Back home, we’ve been preparing for the Beach Buddies’ return and it’s safe to say that 2022 is set to be our most action-packed season yet. And we’re thrilled to announce that there are not only three little beds being made up, but four…

Keep your eyes peeled and your ears open as we’ll be revealing more about our fantastic fourth Beach Buddy as the start of the season nears. In the meantime, check out the glow-up our favourite friends received in Kenya by checking our Facebook and Instagram pages. You can also sign up to our mailing list to receive all information about the Beach Buddies, including an invitation to their red carpet welcome back party, the types of activities they’ll be getting stuck into next season, and what they got up to on their vacation, of course!

Stay tuned, folks, there’s a surprise in store for all Lyons Holiday Parks friends…

A group of Zebras is called a Dazzle, and ZeZe certainly Dazzles with her hip dance moves and rocking smusic taste

The latest member of the Beach Buddies is ZeZe! After Leo, Milo and Hetty enjoyed the delights of Mombasa Beach and the Chalbi desert on their backpacking trip through Kenya, they made a friend in ZeZe, the sassy, rockin’ and dazzling Zebra. ZeZe has a natural flair for playing any instrument available to her and she loves writing songs for her friends. Much to the delight of Hetty who loves a boogie.

You can catch ZeZe at ZeZe’s Eco Fashion, Beach Buddy Pap Call, Beach Buddy Showtime and ZeZe’s Birthday Party. Check the events calendar for more details.

Milo loves to tell jokes… “Why did the monkey take its banana to the doctors? It wasn’t peeling good.”

A cheeky-chappie who loves to joke, Milo is enthusiastic about EVERYTHING! You will often see Milo bounding around park, full of energy. Milo absolutely loves all things bananas; Banana bread, banana
cookies, banana milk! Milo’s favourite dance move is the “banana split!”, letting his creativity shine when he’s rapping and dancing, Milo loves joining Hetty in making up new, cool moves. The laughter never stops when Milo is around with his funny jokes, friendly pranks and infectious chuckle! Milo’s good-nature and zest for
life, means you just want to be around him all the time.

Cool and smart, Leo is definitely, the “mane” man!

Full of energy, Leo is a probably the coolest guy you’ll ever meet and he loves making new friends! You will often find Leo socialising with all his friends and hosting the best parties. Keeping active is Leo’s favourite way to spend his time! Leo will try any sport or activity from playing basketball and football to archery, becoming a master of them all! Smart, logical and grounded, Leo leads his Buddies, always thinking of games and exciting activities. You can’t help but smile when Leo is around.

You can catch Leo at Leo’s Sports Day, Beach Buddy Pap Call, Beach Buddy Showtime and Leo’s Birthday Party.

Hetty always says, “I’m gonna hippo-pot-a-miss you!” When it's time to say goodbye

The quietest of all her friends with a big imagination, Hetty always has the most fantastical, creative ideas and believes that all dreams can come true! Hetty can often be found dancing around park and making up new moves with Milo for her friends to join in all her dances. Hetty loves all things colourful and covered in sparkles, her favourite colour is pink… all shades of pink! Baby pink, bubble-gum pink, flamingo… She loves them all! Kind-hearted and loveable, Hetty loves to meet new friends and giving them all a big hippo hug. You can’t help but feel all warm and fuzzy when you meet Hetty.
