What site fees actually cover

Site fees pay for your pitch and the park's upkeep. Rates, what's bundled in (rates, water, insurance) and when they're reviewed vary park to park, so we confirm the current figure with the park before you commit.

Season length and 12-month parks

Most holiday parks open for a defined season rather than all year. Some of ours are open 12 months for holiday use. A holiday licence isn't the same as residential permission — we'll always be clear which applies.

New or pre-owned

New homes come with warranty and current specification. Pre-owned homes cost less and often include decking and furnishings already in place. Both can be a good buy; it depends on budget and how long you plan to keep it.

Buying off site for your own land

If you have your own land or a smallholding, an off-site home can be delivered to you. You'll need suitable access for transport, a level base, and to check planning and licensing locally before ordering.

Running costs to plan for

Beyond site fees, budget for insurance, gas and electricity, winterising or draining down, and periodic maintenance such as roof and seal checks on older homes.

What to check on a viewing

Look at floor firmness, window seals, signs of damp in corners and under sinks, the age of the boiler or fire, and how the decking and steps are fixed. Ask what's included in the sale, in writing.
