The Holiday Home Park
Holiday Home Parks I live on a Holiday Home Park, the equivalent being a Trailer Park in the States. Let me describe how it works in the UK. First you find your ideal Park, negotiate with the owners to buy the Caravan or Cabin of your choice. They take a cut of the Sales price and all is done, or is it?
If you see a nice home before you select your park, then the owner of the park will inevitably make you pay his commission. You rent the pitch from the owner and undertake to abide by his rules and regulations. Ours is very strict. When you wish to finish the agreement, you have to sell to the owner at the lowest price he can think of. Having said all that, we live by a lake with wonderful scenery and wild life, including Geese, Swans, Ducks, Moorhens, Crested Grebes and Coots. We see Woodpeckers, Herons, Kingfishers and many other birds. When I sit out on my Deck and look around I appreciate that all the aggravation we went through has been worth it. Oh, did I mention the July Floods of 2006? We are now sitting in our second chalet, the first was written off in the floods, and water 4 feet deep was all around for days. It took nearly a year to get back to normal. The owners obeyed the Insurance Companies instructions and raised all the affected homes up by 2 feet. Sometimes we find ourselves wondering if it will happen again, but generally we are happy to be back home.
