Description

Hill Tree Park is a quiet elevated retreat, with wonderful views of the natural landscape of the Pennine Chain surrounding this neatly laid out park, as far as the eye can see. Hill Tree Park is located between Huddersfield town centre and the large village of Marsden. The quaint village of Holmfirth (as seen in 'Last of the Summer Wine') is just 7 miles away. With its rural location, this retirement park (50+) is by no means isolated, being just less than 3 miles outside Huddersfield. This large University and market town is great for its shopping and nightlife.


With all the main cities and countryside of Yorkshire and Lancashire easily reached by car via the M62 and the town railway station, it's a beautiful 'best of both worlds' location. Pets are considered (one dog or one cat) at Hill Tree Park.


All new homes sited are fully furnished and have tiled roofs, mains gas central heating and double glazing. The brick skirt, paths and steps are included in the price quoted.


If you would like to visit this Park, please telephone our Managers, who will be pleased to show you around and advise on up-to-date plot availability.


Park Rules for Hill Tree Park


Preface In these rules:


• “occupier” means anyone who occupies a park home, whether under an Agreement to which the Mobile Homes Act 1983 applies or under a tenancy or any other agreement.


• “you” and “your” refers to the homeowner and any other occupier of a park home


• “we” and “our” refers to the park owner


These rules are in place to ensure acceptable standards are maintained on the park, which will be of general benefit to occupiers, and to promote and maintain community cohesion. They form part of the Agreement by which homeowners occupy the pitch in accordance with the Mobile Homes Act 1983, as amended.


With one exception the rules also apply to any occupiers of park homes who rent their home.


The only rule which does not apply to occupiers who rent their home is rule 30 about the colour of the exterior of the home, as someone renting their home would not be responsible for exterior maintenance.


None of these rules is to have retrospective effect. Accordingly:


• they are only to apply from the date on which they take effect, which is 29th November 2014; and


• no occupier who is in occupation on that date will be treated as being in breach due to circumstances which were in existence on that date and which would not have been a breach of the rules in existence before that date. 1 These rules also apply (for so long as they live on the park) to the park owner and any employees, with the exception of the following rules 13, 15 and 24.


The Park Owner does not accept any liability whatsoever for loss or damage to any property of the Homeowner, including the park home, their family or any visitor to the park.

Note


The express terms of a homeowner’s Agreement contain an undertaking on the part of the homeowner not to allow anything which is or becomes a nuisance, inconvenience or disturbance to other occupiers at the park and this undertaking extends to the behaviour of pets and animals. A similar requirement not to cause a nuisance applies to tenants and again this includes the behaviour of pets and animals. Rule 15 does not apply to pets owned by the park owner, park manager and their family.


16. Nothing in rule 15 of these Park Rules prevents you from keeping an assistance dog if this is required to support your disability and Assistance Dogs UK or any successor body has issued you with an Identification Book or other appropriate evidence.
