We have a fully managed sublet service that can help with this, we cannot guarantee with how often we can sublet your holiday home out, but your best chances to help with this would be to give us as many peak periods like Easter, school summer holidays to give you the best chance. Our charge for this is 25% of the holiday price, plus VAT. Our Reservations team will be happy to help you can contact them on 01590 648333.
You have various options to you, the best option to get the most back will be to sell your holiday home privately, this may take longer but will get you back the highest value for your holiday home as customers like yourself are buying not only the holiday home but also the lifestyle you brought into, we do have first refusal on the sale price to match your figure after the transfer fee, so please bear this in mind. the 2nd option is to look at selling your holiday home offsite, there are many traders out there that you can arrange to visit your holiday home and quote you a price, you then need to let the park know who can arrange to send you out a ‘Owner removal form’ and give you an idea of disconnection costs, which can vary depending on if you have a veranda. Lastly, we could look to offer you a buy-in price, which will not involve any disconnection costs or commission, we will just arrange with the accounts team to raise any final bills that are due.
