BUY YOUR OWN LODGE OR CARAVAN

Buying your own holiday home will give you more opportunities to enjoy a break, whenever you want - and you can share it with your family and friends.  You can try before you buy by taking a short break on a park which looks right for you and make an appointment with the owner or manager to talk about the choice.

Several Thistle Parks have new and pre-owned holiday homes and lodges for sale.  Before making the purchase, talk with the park-owner about the terms and conditions for owning a caravan or lodge, because there are legal implications.  Parks make an annual charge, which varies depending on the facilities available. Make sure you understand all the charges.. The Park will issue you with a Site Licence detailing the terms of the agreement for you to occupy the pitch.  You also need to consider insurance and the number of years the licence extends to..  The park-owners are responsible for the maintenance and security of the park; you pay for this in your pitch fees.

Depending on whether you want two or three bedrooms, brand-new or second-hand:  a new 3-bedroom caravan will cost from £30,000, whereas a 2-bedroom second-hand one will be from perhaps £10,000.  These prices are for guidance only..
