FAQ's
Is buying a Holiday Home a good investment?
A Holiday Home is an investment in your private leisure time.
Owning a Holiday Home at Coquetdale provides a lifestyle choice for you and your family.
All Coquetdale Holiday Homes are privately owned, sub-letting for investment income is not permitted at any time.
Do I own the land?
No, you are buying a Holiday Home along with the right to occupy a pitch on the Park, providing you pay the annual pitch fees and adhere to the Park rules.
You are not purchasing the land.
Can my friends visit me at the Park?
Yes. Only close friends and immediate family can use your Holiday Home at Coquetdale.
The Park is exclusively families and couples only, no groups are allowed at any time.
Can I choose the location of my Holiday Home?
Yes. However only with selected new Holiday Homes.
Approved used Holiday Homes are sold on site as advertised & are not available for re-location.
Can I move my Holiday Home to another pitch on the Park?
No. Once you have purchased either a new or approved used Holiday Home you are committed to that pitch.
However, you may part exchange or upgrade your Holiday Home at any time where you can re-locate to a different pitch.
How much do Holiday Homes depreciate e.g. after 3 yrs?
Holiday Home ownership is a long term commitment. We advise you not to think about less than 5 yrs. minimum.
This is because purchasing a Holiday Home is very similair to purchasing a car. They both depreciate and the fisrt 3-5 yrs. are the worst.
The value of pre-owned Holiday Homes in future years depends on the state of the economy and how well you maintain your Holiday Home.
What annual costs do I have to pay?
Pitch fees: Annual site fees include a winter storage fee.
Site fees are reviewed annually and notified to customers in September / October each year for the following season.
Do you allow pets onto the Park?
Yes. No dangerous breeds are allowed. All pets must be kept under proper control at all times.
What is the length of the season?
Mid March through to Early November each year. Coquetdale is a private Holiday Park, NOT a Residential park.
Who decides the length of the season?
The local planning authority sets the maximum period that the Park is permitted to be open for business each year.
However, it is up to the Park to decide, within that period, the actual dates during which the Park will be open for you to visit.
Why should the Park decide a different period?
There may be a number of reasons, but often the closed period is used to carry out essential maintenance and improvement work so that
residents can enjoy the open period without being inconvenienced by any disruption on the park.
Can I move permanently into my Holiday Home?
NO. You are restricted to using it for holiday or recreational purposes.
If you were to live permanently in your Holiday Home, this would be in breach of the planning permission & site licence with serious legal consequences.
In addition, a caravan Holiday Home is not designed to be a permanent residence.
What about insurance cover?
It is important to bear in mind that the cover provided for Holiday Homes is not the same as that for residential park homes when it comes to providing 'alternative accommodation'.
For Holiday Homes, the insurance cover reflects the fact that the customer's permanent home is not the Park.
The cover does not extend to providing temporary re-housing in the event of damage to the Holiday Home.
