Taylor Wessing has advised Homair Vacances SA and its majority shareholder, French private equity house Montefiore Investment, on the exchange of contracts for the acquisition of Eurocamp Limited from Holidaybreak Limited (a subsidiary of Cox & Kings) for £89.2 million. The Eurocamp group specialises in outdoor holidays in Europe.  The transaction is subject to approval by the Competition and Markets Authority in the UK.  This is the second transaction on which Taylor Wessing has advised Homair Vacances and Montefiore, having advised on the acquisition of Al Fresco by Homair Vacances in 2011.

Taylor Wessing is also involved, together with Montefiore's French advisers, in their discussions with Carlyle France for the potential sale of the enlarged group during an agreed period of exclusivity.

The Taylor Wessing team was led by Private Equity partners Martin Winter and Emma Danks and included Competition partner Robert Vidal.
