Neilson Active Holidays has been acquired by LDC
July 2018 — Risk Capital Partners has sold Neilson Active Holidays to LDC. Financial details have not been disclosed.
Neilson is a leading UK-based holiday company offering activity-focused summer and winter holidays. The company operates beach clubs, ski hotels and chalets, and 65 yachts, exclusively for its guests who number almost 80,000 every year.
