Although our Holiday Parks vary slightly, for most of our parks our season is from 1st March until around the 16th January, so you can enjoy your holiday throughout the Summer and Winter!
The number one cost associated with owning a static caravan is the site fees. Site fees vary across our Parks - we bill annually, but you can opt to pay within one of our payment plans, which will spread the cost for you. There will also be other associated costs such as gas, electric, insurance water & rates. For further information on this please get in touch and we can provide details of the site fees for your chosen park.
This is a hot topic at the minute and the simple answer is no. Static holiday caravans are not built to residential standards, and more importantly, you won’t be afforded the protection of the mobile homes act. If you’re thinking of living in a mobile home, make sure you choose a residentially licensed park with the appropriate written statement.
We can supply all leading manufacturers of holiday homes including, Willerby, Carnaby, ABI, BK Bluebird, Atlas, Swift, Victory and Pemberton. Offer a range of Brand New and Pre-loved Holiday Homes. To see a list of the holiday homes we currently have in stock please visit our caravans for sale page.
Yes, it is a condition of your pitch licence to insure your caravan or lodge. It’s vitally important that you have public liability insurance, and all good static caravan insurers will include this within their policy wording.
No, you don’t own the land. You are buying a luxury caravan holiday home with the right to occupy a pitch of your choice for as long as you like, providing you pay the annual site fees and abide by the Park rules.

When your caravan gets to 20 years old (15 years old on Green Pastures) we will be delighted to help you upgrade your caravan into a newer model. However, should you wish to leave the park you will be able to sell your caravan privately or you can look at our Buy Back scheme - please consult your park Sales Team to discuss this option.

Yes, you may sub-let your caravan on all of our parks apart from Maenan Abbey & Green Pastures, providing the caravan is not over ten years old. Sub-letting is entirely your responsibility. Thornley Leisure Parks do not take any responsibility for any aspect of the private sub-letting of your holiday home. All owners who do choose to sub-let their holiday homes are obliged to obtain an annual gas landlords certificate (which we can arrange) and a copy of this must be held by us.
We have facilities for Tents and Tourers on our Dinlle Caravan Park and Morfa Lodge Holiday Park in Caernarfon, and Gallaber Park, North Yorkshire.
Our preferred supplier is AB Sundecks – one of the market leaders. The quality of their products and service are second to none, if you need help organising this please get in touch with our park team who will be happy to assist.
Occasionally we allow this depending on the Park location and age of the Caravan. Enquire with your chosen park for more details on this.
