Buy a holiday home with your eyes open

Own & Roam helps you research static caravans and holiday lodges before you speak to a sales team. We focus on real parks, real published ownership information and the costs and restrictions that are easy to overlook.

Static caravans

Research static caravan ownership

Compare regions, annual costs, park rules and real ownership routes before arranging a viewing.

Holiday lodges

Research lodge ownership

Higher purchase prices make site fees, licence terms, specification and resale questions even more important.

First live ownership cluster

Buying a static caravan in North Wales

Our North Wales guide now includes real parks currently publishing holiday-home ownership information, including current pricing and site-fee information where the operator makes it public.

The parks are listed editorially. They are not paid placements unless we explicitly say otherwise.

What we compare

The bits that still matter after viewing day

Annual cost, not just purchase price

We keep site fees, utilities, insurance, maintenance and likely fee increases beside the headline price.

Licence and park rules

Season length, caravan age limits, subletting, resale arrangements and residential-use restrictions all matter.

The park and location

The right caravan on the wrong park is still the wrong purchase. Journey time, atmosphere and local area are part of the decision.

Real operator routes

Where we have verified an operator's ownership page, we link to the official source rather than inventing stock or pretending a listing is live.

Buying guides

Browse by region or buying priority

Compare Cornwall, Devon, the Lake District, Yorkshire and more, or start with what matters most to you: beach access, quieter parks, family facilities, walking or lower advertised entry prices.

Park research

Research individual holiday parks

We are building independent buyer profiles for parks offering holiday-home ownership, with published costs, season details and the awkward questions worth asking before a viewing.

Run the numbers

Calculate the true ownership cost

Model site-fee increases, insurance, utilities, maintenance and resale rather than deciding from the purchase price alone.

Before you sign

Take the buyer questions with you

Ask about site-fee history, season length, age limits, resale commission, subletting and every charge that sits outside the pitch fee.
