Costs

All homes have costs – holiday homes are no different. So, what’s involved? There’s the initial cost of the holiday home, then there are site fees and running costs – these are the annual costs you’ll need to bear in mind when weighing up your finances.

Holiday home

The cost of our holiday homes include the transporting, siting and connections once you’ve found the perfect spot. We also kit out your holiday home with the essentials. From cutlery and crockery to furniture and bedding; you’ll have enough to enjoy your holiday home from the first time you step into it.

We have three ways for you to pay for your holiday home, and can even help with finance too!

Payment in full

Up to £1,000 can be accepted in cash with the remainder paid by cheque, BACS, credit or debit card.

Park finance

A minimum of 10% of the value of your holiday home, or £3,000 (whichever is greater) is required as a deposit when using our park finance option. All details can be processed on the park.

Third-party finance

Through a bank, family member or friend.

As well as the cost of the holiday home, you will also need to pay for your running costs at the time of purchase, and choose from three payment methods to cover your site fees. There are annual charges for these too, and some change year to year, but our experienced team will be able to give you a guide to what these costs are, and when they are to be paid.

Site fees

When you purchase a holiday home, you also need to find your dream pitch to site it. Site fees are charged separately to the holiday home price, and can be paid in three ways:

1. Pay in full before the handover of your holiday home

2. Pay in two instalments

  • First instalment on or before the handover of your holiday home
  • Second instalment by 1 April

3. Pay by direct debit

  • First payment on or before the handover of your holiday home, either by cash or card payment
  • Up to five consecutive monthly direct debit payments, all payments to be made by October
  • Site fees for the following season are billed in October of each year

Water charges

Water charges are invoiced in November for the following calendar year.

Non-domestic rates

Rates are invoiced in November for the following calendar year.

Insurance

Insurance runs from May to April and is included on a pro-rata basis. Insurance renewals are invoiced in April of each year. Alternatively, you can arrange your own insurance. All holiday homes must be insured.

Average gas and electric

The actual charge will depend upon the usage of your holiday home. Gas and electric costs are invoiced in arrears in November. Gas cost is based on metered usage.

Park security alarm subscription

For total peace of mind, the park security alarm provides you with 24/7 security cover all year round. It is a wireless, silent alarm system covering your holiday home, which links to your park security team.

Draining down your holiday home

At the end of each season to protect your holiday home from frost damage, you’ll need to drain it down. We’ll send you the information and costs in September of each year about how this can be carried out. You can book your drain down through the park or arrange it yourself through an appropriately qualified person.

Disconnection charges

A disconnection charge will be payable when leaving the park. Additional charges will also apply when cranes are needed or for dismantling a veranda.

Your owner account

Please note that if your account is in arrears, an interest charge will be applied to your account on a monthly basis until September. If you are having any difficulties and need to discuss your account, please contact the Owner Services team on the park for their assistance.

Site fees and running costs will be reviewed annually for the forthcoming season, all owners will be notified accordingly of any changes. Other park services are available, please ask for details.

The budget planner below helps you understand what deposit and monthly payments are needed if you finance the cost of your holiday home.

The minimum deposit is 10% of the value of the holiday home, or £3,000 (whichever is greater). The monthly costs are calculated over 84 months. Remember that you will also need to budget for annual running costs too.
