Current Caravan Holiday Homes for Sale Caravan Sales Information
The season runs from approximately mid-March to Mid-November for owners only, this can be extended to 11* months for holiday homes with double glazing and central heating.
It’s effectively “ground” rent and is simply an amount paid for a season under an Annually Renewable Licence to Occupy which is for the provision of the actual pitch itself (i.e. the land) each caravan holiday home sits on, together with the maintenance of the park overall and its utilities infrastructure to supply that caravan. The holiday home itself is owned by you of course but it’s sited at Lakeside and therefore kept on our land all year as well as benefiting from the various ongoing essential services the park provides to enable its occupation. This annual payment is due and payable whether the holiday home is in use by you or not and non-payment, for whatever reason, may regrettably result in the Licence being revoked and not renewed.
2020 season 8 months £3,995.00 & 11* months £4,620.00 – if purchasing partway through the season site rent will be charged pro-rata.
You will be sent an invoice you in December for payment in January or by split payment by arrangement, the choice is yours.
You will be asked to complete our contact form for our records. Prior to completion of the purchase, we will need to see a copy of your council tax bill in the purchasers name, it is required as proof of residence for all names on the sale agreement.
We will accept a non-returnable deposit to secure the purchase and agree on a completion date for final payment. You will need your insurance cover in place by completion date and we will need a copy for our records. Once funds have cleared, which can be almost immediately depending on payment type, you will be able to start enjoying your holiday home.
This will depend on usage. Holiday homes are fitted with gas and electric meters, we read your meters and bill you annually in November.
