Running Costs

As with owning a car or a home, there are some additional running costs that need budgeting for. We offer a 10 month direct debit scheme to make payments easy for you. Don't forget that Letting your holiday home when you’re not using it yourself is a great way to earn an additional income which can help towards the running costs.  It’s quite normal to let your holiday home, who do you think owns all the cottages and villas that are in so many brochures?

We will go through running costs in detail when you visit but the following should help give you an idea of the annual running costs you will need to consider.

Pitch Fees

These fees are inclusive of winter storage and are payable in advance. The annual Pitch Fees do vary according to the size, location and views available to a particular pitch.

Rates & Water

The charge for Rates is based upon the average rateable value of each holiday home determined by the Valuation Office and the charges levied by the Local Water Authority. It sounds complicated but isn’t!


Gas & Electricity

Bottled Gas and electricity are charged based purely on how much you consume. Gas is delivered and connected free of charge you simply pay for the bottle.


Insurance

All holiday home owners must be adequately covered by a suitable insurance policy. Most owners choose our recommended scheme as it is specifically designed for owners of holiday homes. You are however free to choose your own insurer.
