The place is yours and the choice is yours too
Are you curious about what it is really like to be a holiday home owner? It’s easy to have your head in the clouds, daydreaming of a life filled with summer parties and unicorn floats, but you might be starting to wonder if it can all be sunshine and rainbows.
We’re pretty confident that once you get the keys to your holiday home you will never look back. But don’t just take our word for it, hear it straight from some of our happy owners who are already living their best lives, basking in the joy of ownership. They’ll share the real deal about what sparks joy in being an owner.
Your holiday home doesn’t need to be miles away from home to be a great escape. In truth, the closer it is, the quicker you can switch on those holiday vibes. Imagine having your happy place within easy reach. This was exactly the case for Andrea and Neil. When hunting for their ideal holiday spot, one important item was at the top of their checklist: it needed to be right around the corner:
“We were looking for something that wasn’t too far from home, close to the coast, pet friendly, with a hot tub and a great range of facilities and amenities.” read more.
Choosing a holiday park location that’s not too far from home will make it much more likely that you will get good use from your holiday home and really make the most of your purchase.
One of the very best things to look forward to as an owner is bringing a little bit of positive disruption into your routine. Put a little zest into your work week, knowing that the weekend is going to whisk you away to your second life. Become the master of your holidays, commanding good times on a mere whim! Andrea and Neil discovered the magic of this when they set their sights on their chosen location: Finlake Resort & Spa.
“Throughout our search, it became apparent that some other holiday park operators were able to dictate how often and when you could use your holiday home, but with Haulfryn we were given complete flexibility. We could choose when we wanted to visit and how long for…” read more.
If you’re a bit of a social butterfly, or love nothing more than being surrounded by family, a holiday home can wrap you up in the warm and fuzzies all the more often. Get closer to those you love by taking them along with you or maybe you are like Mike and Paulette, wanting a base close to family, so you can visit more frequently:
“Our permanent residence is up in Scotland, and with both of our children now living in the south, we thought that having a holiday home close by would enable us to visit them whenever we wanted, without having to pay huge amounts of money every visit.” read more.
Very often our owners enjoy creating new friendships at their chosen holiday park and Mike and Paulette have discovered this delightful cherry on top during their stays at their Brokerswood holiday home:
“All the other owners around us are really friendly, giving a somewhat community feel which we truly value whilst we are there.” read more.
Being a holiday home owner can transform you into a seasoned explorer of your favourite spot. With each trip wander off the beaten path, triumph over fresh new walking trails, stumble upon heart-stealing beaches and feast at the tastiest restaurants in town. Every visit is just like a treasure hunt, revealing new secrets and sparking exciting quests for next time. Just ask a very happy Jackie and Frank Dennett, who found this aspect particularly enticing at Devon Hills:
“We love the location of Devon Hills Park as it has so much of Devon on its doorstep. The staff are always friendly and helpful and we are still pinching ourselves that we own our beautiful lodge here.”
If you are worried about meeting the ongoing costs of ownership you will find that subletting is a simple and easy way to earn a little bit of extra cash which could take care of your annual costs, without you having to haul out the abacus. Take it from Beth Adlam, a proud owner at Devon Hills – she’s been riding the sublet wave and it’s all smooth sailing, sans stress.
“The occupancy rate is about 70%, and the income this gives us more than covers the site fees, general upkeep and any maintenance that is not provided by the park. Our lodge has always been well serviced by the excellent housekeeping and maintenance teams, and the bookings have been organised through Hoseasons/Haulfryn. This means that we have no responsibility for the ‘day to day’ running of the lodge, and that it is all ready for us when we arrive for our own holiday.”
If you want to earn a little bit more and enjoy the certainty of knowing what your return will be, speak to us about our Guaranteed Rental Agreements which prioritise a solid return in the early years of ownership but still allow you to enjoy personal use as well.
Maybe becoming a holiday home owner will unleash your adventurous side. Picture yourself testing out cool activities like archery, horse riding, or wakeboarding. Got a curious palate? Try some adventurous cuisine (whelks, anyone?). Or perhaps, wander off into the enticing unknown of the countryside. Owning a holiday home isn’t just about having a place to relax, it’s about unlocking a world of new experiences.
Whatever your reasons for buying a holiday home, it should pave the way to you doing more of what you love. Alarm clocks can be replaced by leisurely mornings, you can pour time and attention into creating a meal from a favourite cookbook or just sit down with a cup of tea and some of your favourite peeps. Whatever you love, have more of it with a Haulfryn holiday home.
