Site fees are payable in advance of the season start on the 1st of March each year. Generally, site fees start from £2,995 (Check our offers page just in case) and vary based on pitch location and park.

The cost of your chosen holiday home will include siting and connection, and our team can take you through the affordable finance packages and breakdowns with you.

Experiencing life as a Holiday Home owner before you purchase has never been easier. Maybe you’ve had a park visit and now want to spend more time on park to reassure yourself it’s the right park for you. Maybe you want to make sure it’s suitable for everyone in the family, and want to explore the surrounding areas.
Once you’ve stayed, and you decide to purchase your holiday home with us, we’ll double the value of your holiday and deduct it from your chosen holiday home.
Purchasing a holiday home can be a huge decision that can benefit your life in many ways, but if you have any questions about ownership then our friendly team will be available to assist you whatever the query. Or why not take a look at our handy guides below.
Yes of course! However, this will be guided by the size of your holiday home and plot availability. New development areas only allow for new holiday homes.
Yes our parks are all dog friendly. All we ask is that owners ensure their dogs are kept on a lead at all times and waste is disposed of appropriately.
Yes you can sublet* your new static caravan. New static caravans that have mod cons and specs, naturally become more attractive if you intend on subletting, and our owners have managed to earn substantial amounts through subletting. *Subject to Holiday Park
Every park has a 20 year age limit that starts from the date of manufacture. Once the holiday home reaches 20 years of age the park manager will inspect the unit. As long as they are happy the unit meets health and safety standards, along with park standards, then the park operator will be happy for you to remain on the park. The caravan will then be inspected on a yearly basis or before should there be concerns.
Absolutely, holiday home ownership is all about enjoying time with friends and family building memories together.
It all depends on which park you’re at. We range from 7.5 month seasons to 12 month seasons.
Unfortunately as a non-residential park, all holiday homes must be vacated for a short period each year. Please contact the park directly for further details.

A static caravan is a lifestyle investment, not a financial investment. Static caravans depreciate at a similar rate to cars. Owning a static caravan as a holiday home is about lifestyle, jumping in the car on a Friday after picking the kids up from school and making every weekend a holiday, or simply escaping the rat race and having an escape where you can choose your pace.
With monthly repayments from as little as £239 a month for endless holidays, it’s cheaper than paying for a 7-night holiday abroad…
With flights and package holidays soaring in price in the last 2 years, according to data from Travelsupermarket.com. a 7-night getaways to Greece last summer costs an average of £867 per person, this means it would cost £289 a month for a family of four over 12 months for just 1 week holiday, that’s not considering any additional costs like airport parking, additional luggage charges, transfers, the list goes on
