Our intrepid Caravan Sitefinder team of experts is at the Caravan, Camping and Motorhome Show at the NEC Birmingham all this week with our friends from Torp, creators of futuristic luxury lodges.
We're offering friendly advice about your next holidays with a selection of the best holiday lettings in the UK and Europe as well as amazing holiday homes for sale.
Static Caravan Sales Booming
One of the most interesting parts of this year's show is finding out how the static caravan has become so loved in the UK. In fact, the popularity of the static is positively booming. Last year, the static caravan market experienced a 37% increase in sales across the UK!
Travel expert, Simon Calder (from 30 minutes in) discusses the future of the static caravan with Gemma Hunt and says "It is a trend that is here to stay. We have fallen in love with the British seaside again which is absolutely tremendous."
Take a look at the Channel 5 show here.
Static caravans are now more popular than ever since the staycation became our new way to holiday. One static caravan recently sold for over £700,000 in Sandbanks, Dorset on the south coast - known as 'the millionaire's playground' - one of the most expensive areas of the country.
Look inside the top-of-the-range split level caravan with a stunning sea view, outside decking area and bi-fold glass doors. Calder goes on to mention that we're heading for the 'million-pound caravan' but there are more affordable options in other gorgeous locations up and down the country like Lincolnshire and Caithness.
Own a Second Home
You could own a beautiful second home in the countryside or near the coast for a lot less than you might imagine too, particularly if you're lucky enough to find a well-maintained pre-owned holiday home.
The brand new Pemberton Rivendale seen in the video is a luxury holiday home that comes in at around £150,000, depending on the location, of course. This model features a spacious kitchen with an island, dining table and chairs, integrated appliances, a stylish lounge and generous master bedroom with en suite and so much more.
Many parks also offer subletting so you could make a return on your investment or simply escape to the tranquility or adventure of your own private holiday home at every opportunity.
