Owning a holiday home in one of your favourite retreat locations can be a dream come true. Retreating from the chaos of regular life to explore the country or relax near the coast is a luxury that can help to balance and fulfil your life. Holiday home investment, however, is a bigger decision to make; unlike booking a one- or two-week holiday, owning a holiday let is a long-term financial commitment that you will need to make.
To help you make the right decision about this investment, we’ve compiled a comprehensive guide to holiday home ownership in the UK.

Are there finance options available?
There are no mortgages available for these types of holiday homes, but we use specialised funding from Blackhorse so you can choose to spread the costs into affordable monthly payments. Our deposits are 20% of the value of the holiday home.
Are there any other expenses?
As with owning any home, there are running costs. Site fees depend on your park location and vary from park to park. They not only cover your refuse collection, park upkeep, maintenance & security, but your entrance to all the park venues and facilities.
Costs to considerWhich area of the park would best suit my needs?
Decisions, decisions? Whether you prefer a quieter life perhaps in a quiet cul-de-sac, being close to the facilities for a bit of a buzz, or on one of our exclusive developments.
Can we choose the holiday home pitch on the park?
Subject to availability yes! But some plots do have differing site fees, but we’ve got something for everyone. Most of our pitches have allocated parking, piped mains gas and the neighbours are pretty friendly too!

Our Merley Court park now offers Residential Licences, so if you are looking for a park home that you can live in all year round, please get in touch here
All our other parks have holiday park licences, therefore they cannot be used to live on (Residential), but you can mainly come and go as and when you like during the 10 - 11 months (depending on the park) we are open. Our parks are subject to a 56 day maximum length of stay, with at least 7 days where you will need to be off park prior to returning. Typically, our parks are closed early January to early February.
Sure thing! You can either fill out this form or call our office on 0800 214080 to arrange a visit. We are currently only accepting visits by appointment only, in order to manage numbers and help us keep you safe whilst social distancing. We kindly ask that as per Government guidelines you ensure that face coverings are worn whilst in our ownership offices and on your park tour. You can find out more details on all our ownership locations and available holiday homes on our About Ownership page.
We find that more and more purchasers now are not just only thinking of how the holiday park could work for them but also for their children, grandkids and friends. You will receive Ownership passes that can be allocated to these so they can either come and visit you when you are at your holiday home or use it when you are busy and cannot make it down.
