Purchasing a lodge as a ‘buy already let’ investment gives the owner the
best of both worlds – a secure return on investment and the opportunity
to enjoy the use of their own, log built lodge, during the year.
Our lodges are assembled on site using solid logs sourced from
sustainable forests, built to approved building standards and designed to
last a lifetime. They are comparable to ‘bricks and mortar’ and should
appreciate in value in line with the local housing market. These stunning
contemporary lodges provide an ideal investment opportunity, located at
Roydon Mill Estate offering 5 star accommodation set in beautifully
landscaped gardens surrounded by stunning waterways and lakes.
The lodges can be let privately or through our management company
with returns predicted to show between 7-10% on your investment.
Essex has always been a very popular holiday destination and this market
has continued to develop and has remained strong over the last few years.
At Roydon Mill Estate we operate our holiday lodges through Hoseasons
& The Holiday Cottages Group, who, with a combined £30 million
marketing budget, promote our lodges nationally & internationally.
This superb holiday park is situated within Roydon, on the edge of The
Essex/Hertfordshire border, Roydon Mill Estate offers you an idyllic place
to escape and get away from it all surrounded by the peace and tranquility
of some of the finest waterways scenery in Britain. The resort's prime
location, exquisite leisure lodges and excellent hospitality combine to
offer a superb investment. We expect occupancy levels to be at least 30
weeks in the year once the development is complete. If you wish to
operate the letting of your lodge yourself, we can offer a management
and cleaning service to ensure that your lodge is prepared to the highest
standards in anticipation of the arrival of you or your next
guests.
