Guide to owning a holiday home
If you are thinking about becoming a holiday home owner, there is a lot to consider before taking that step in to a new lifestyle.
Site fees
These are fees which you pay for the pitch you keep your holiday home on, the upkeep of the park, which include maintenance, grounds keeping, street lighting, bin collections and more. They are paid once a year, before the season starts. A question that comes up often with those interested in a holiday home is about the site fees to pay per year on the parks. Our site fees change yearly, so please ask our team for more information.
What is included in the price?
To make things nice and simple, we show you a total price to buy the holiday home. Included within that price are the current season’s site fees, steps to your holiday home with a handrail, siting and transport, your connections and gas safety test, and VAT. You also get a key fob for the barrier entry, WiFi installation and the first year of data, plus a TV aerial.
What other costs are there to think about?
Depending on the extras included in the holiday home you are buying you may need to consider things such appliances, a drain down at the end of the season, and caravan insurance. All of these you can discuss with our sales advisors and they will point you in the right direction.
