What is being bought

Published requirement description

Forestry England will be tendering a concession lease for an independent expert group or company to reinstate, develop, maintain, and operate a Premier Downhill Mountain bike facility. This is an excellent opportunity for the successful leaseholder to bring Aston Hill Bike Park back to its former glory and expand the future potential of this unique site by creating new trails and facilities. The 100-acre bike park adjacent to Wendover Woods, has a 40 space carpark and features graded trails of varying difficulty which are technical in nature. It has previously boasted an impressive combination of moderate to advanced downhill runs, as well as a cross-country loop and pump track for MTB beginners. We anticipate that the lease will be for a period of up to 10 years. A full copy of the draft lease will be available in the tender documents to be published in May 2024. The total value of the Aston Hill Bike Park lease opportunity will be in the region of £500,000-£750,000. Please register your interest with the Forestry England by emailing [email protected] to receive updates on this future tender opportunity. We invite interested companies from the market to provide feedback and potential clarifications on the feasibility of our emerging plans.
