Verdant Leisure

Before you buy a holiday home on a Verdant park

Verdant runs 5 holiday parks across 3 counties in Scotland and the north of England. These are holiday parks, so the home is for holidays rather than a permanent address. Everything below applies wherever you buy.

Ask how long the season runs. Holiday parks close for part of the year and the dates vary from park to park. Get the opening and closing dates in writing before you commit. Can you live in a static caravan year-round?

Ask what the site fees cover and when they are reviewed. Site fees are the running cost that catches people out. Find out what is included, what is billed separately, and what the last three years of increases looked like. A guide to static caravan site fees

Read the licence agreement. It sets the term, what happens at the end of it, whether you can sublet, and any limit on the age of the caravan on the pitch. Holiday park contracts explained

Ask how you would sell it. Selling a holiday home works differently from selling a house, and the answer is easier to get before you buy than after. Selling a static caravan

Go and stand on the pitch. Where the sun falls, where you park, how far the facilities are, who is either side. Photographs will not tell you any of that.
