Introduction to Park Homes
What are park homes? Park homes are single-storey residential properties built to exceed British Standard BS3632. These prefabricated homes are situated in specially designated parks, offering a unique blend of community living and independence.
When choosing a location for park homes or mobile homes in the UK, several key factors deserve attention. Consider the site’s licensing and regulations, as well as nearby amenities and services. Assess flood risk and environmental factors to ensure safety.
Examine park rules and community atmosphere to find a good fit. Check proximity to public transport and major roads for convenience. Factor in the cost of pitch fees and utilities, and investigate the long-term security of tenure. By weighing these aspects, you’ll be better equipped to select a suitable and enjoyable location for your park or mobile home.
Purchasing a park home in the UK involves several key steps. Initially, you’ll need to research and visit various parks to find your ideal location. Once you’ve chosen a park and a home, you’ll typically pay a deposit to secure your purchase. The park owner will then provide you with a written statement outlining the terms of the agreement, including pitch fees and park rules.
Legal considerations are paramount when buying a park home. The Mobile Homes Act 2013 provides important protections for park home owners in England. This legislation covers aspects such as security of tenure, pitch fee reviews, and the right to sell your home. It’s essential to understand your rights and responsibilities as outlined in this Act. Additionally, ensure that the park has the correct licence from the local authority and that your agreement includes the implied terms set out in the Act. Being well-informed about these legal aspects will help ensure a smooth purchase process and protect your interests as a park home owner.

Many residential parks have age restrictions, often being 50+ or 55+. This varies between parks. However, All of Charles Simpson Organisation Parks are 25 years and over with the exception of Pine View Park which is strictly over 50’s.
Any internal decoration is fine, if you are thinking of any internal structural alterations we would always recommend getting the advise of a park home surveyor or contacting Park Home Assist to ensure any alterations will not effect your Platinum Seal Warranty.
For any external alterations to your home or pitch you would always need the permission of the park operator to ensure that any alterations will not be in conflict with the site licencing requirements.
Pet policies vary between parks. Many allow pets, but there may be restrictions on number, size, or type. Always check the park rules before making a commitment. Also in some parks you would be required to sign a pet addendum stating that your pet would not be replaced or additional pets are brought on to the park.
You can live in a park home indefinitely, as long as you adhere to the site agreement and the park maintains its operating licence.
