Discover the Great outdoors with a stay in
a Chalet Park Home...
Self catering Holidays in a park home, mean
one thing -Freedom. Come and go as you please, relax and enjoy your
surroundings. Park Homes come in all shapes and sizes, from the modest little
mobile home (we mean with wheels removed and plumbed in) to strongly constructed
timber buildings through to property that is more reminiscent of your standard
bungalow. Types & Styles of building do vary from site to site but most will
come fully furnished with everything you need to have an enjoyable holiday. Many
are now even equipped with fairly sophisticated entertainment equipment and
several even have access for computers and the Internet. Kitchens may be in some
cases be fairly basic but you should have all the necessary pots & pans and
cooking equipment as well as bedding. If you are taking smaller children with
you, it is as well to check on the facilities on offer and to put in any special
requests in good time.
Whatever the type or its construction, these buildings, located the world over
and are immensely popular as Holiday Homes. Its not hard to understand why this
type of property attracts an ever growing band of loyal owners & renters. Often
located in areas of outstanding natural beauty, a stay in chalet park appeals to
anyone who has a love of the great outdoors. Out door pursuits and activities
are popular in and around most chalet parks and there are so many activities to
choose from , Often simple appreciation of the local scenery is enough to make
someone seek out a chalet park stay and parks are usually located within areas
where, fishing, sailing, walking horse riding & cycling are are all easily
available.
When seeking to rent a chalet from a holiday park, it is essential to do your
own research as to the facilities on offer. Standard and Legalities vary the
world over and what you can take for granted in one country you may find
applicable in another. In the United Kingdom for example there is now an
official star based scheme where park owners can prove the facilities they have
on offer to renters. To achieve star status, the holiday park must have been
visited by an official inspector from the local tourist board who will have
carried out a full review of the facilities on offer. After this visit, the
inspector will make a report and if applicable award a grading. The scheme
covers all different types of holiday park or chalet park accommodation and can
be used as a trusted benchmark when deciding to rent or buy a property at a
particular location. If you are interested in buying a property on a chalet park
and deriving a second income from your purchase, having it located on a park
with a higher star award should in theory make it easier to rent. The
inspections are quite rigorous and range from a single star award (which still
means the site has achieved passes on over 60 separate points) up to 5 stars
which is currently the maximum:-
-
Two/One Star-Good and Acceptable, to achieve
these basic grades, is still an achievement in itself and the site will have
to have passed a number of tests and even minor details are taken in to
consideration by the Tourist Board. Much focus is placed on cleanliness and
any site that has attained this status will have exceed the provisions
required.
History of The Holiday Park Homes
- Holiday chalets are beloved the world over, the name
originated in Switzerland and loosely translated means the house of a herder.
Traditionally, the construction of a chalet was wooden and the dwelling had a
sloping roof and widely overhanging eaves to help cope with the adverse weather
conditions found in Alpine regions. In common with modern chalets on holiday
parks, these buildings were used as temporary accommodation in the summer months
and during the winter months the occupants would descend in the valleys below to
seek shelter for the winter. These buildings were built to withstand extreme
weather ranges and when you think about it, what material is better to withstand
harsh winters than natures own wood. People simple ,love staying in this type of
building as it imparts a wonderful feeling of being part of the great outdoors.
