Purchasing a lodge as a ‘buy to let’ investment gives the owner the best of both worlds – a secure return on investment and the opportunity to enjoy the use of a high-quality lodge during the year.

Thinking of Holiday Letting?
Extensive  occupation by an owner will reduce the available letting period, and therefore the income earning potential of your lodge, so most investors tend to occupy their lodge out of season and let us get on with managing the holiday letting business.

Our buy to let scheme involves placing the lodge into our management scheme, allowing the lodge development as a whole  (including your lodge) to get the highest profile in the letting market place with a good quality brochure and internet  advertising. No private lettings are allowed.

Income
We have recent knowledge of letting income levels for lodges on the park and if required this can be backed up by a  minimum income  guarantee.

Expenditure
Management on a day-to-day basis is undertaken by ourselves who will manage a range of functions on your behalf.
• Administration and reception
• Park security
• Grounds maintenance (including grass cutting,
landscaping etc.).
• Maintenance of common areas.
• Provision of leisure facilities and amenities.
• Running costs including cleaning, laundry
• Booking service for holidays
