The market for static caravans is bigger than ever. Across the UK, leisure-loving people and their loved ones are scouring the market for a real place they can call a second home. Buying a caravan of your own is a huge decision, but the benefits are of owning one are awesome.

Although a large investment, buying a static caravan with Haven offers incredible value and a peaceful place you can return to time after time. The back-and-forth process of booking a holiday is made largely irrelevant. Everything is already there for you on arrival, with all the facilities accessible and within easy reach. If you’re thinking about joining our community of caravan owners, read on to find out why purchasing a static caravan with Haven is one of the soundest investments you’ll ever make for you and your loved ones.

2. Loads of locations to choose from

It doesn’t matter where you’re based in the country, there’s a Haven park that fits your needs. Whether you’re looking to travel for short, infrequent breaks or spend multiple weeks on park at a time, our range of coastal locations are unrivalled offering you and your loved a real escape from the hustle and bustle. 

From the rural shores of northern Northumberland, to the much talked about Cornish coast and the hidden gems of Lincolnshire, our parks are conveniently located so you’ll enjoy a reasonable journey to and from them every time. Who needs airports and aeroplanes when you have a holiday home of your own in a convenient and cool place? 



3. A place you can return to time after time

Ownership with Haven gives you a place of your own that you can return to as little or as much as you please. It takes the enjoyment a step beyond that of a break, to a level where it really does become a lovely aspect of your lifestyle with the choice of bringing your loved ones along whenever you want. Just like the real Church Farm owners in this video, Kerri and Gene explain, there's a lot to love about the lifestyle here and you'll want to come back again and again.

Having a place you can return to is also much, much more cost effective, even if the initial figures can look a little scary. Just as importantly, buying in a static caravan of your own is also an investment in your mental health and wellbeing.

4. Our community feel

Becoming an owner with Haven goes way beyond owning something material. By basing your second home at one of our parks, you’re joining a community of like-minded people who are looking to make memories that last a lifetime. You’re providing your younger ones with a safe space to enjoy the environment around them and make friends. You’re giving adults a place to get away to and enjoy with others. 

Of course, our professional team will cater to your every need every step of the way so you can focus on socialising as little or as much as you want. You can hear from our Church Farm owners Alison and William here on how much they love coming to their "happy place".

8. Exclusive owners-only benefits

The benefits to being an owner extend well beyond that of holidaymakers. You’re free to use all the facilities and access the entertainment and activities of your choice, but we go one step beyond and offer our homeowners extra benefits to sweeten the deal on our parks. 

You’ll get 50% off payable activities throughout the season, and our Owners Card gives you 15% off in all our shops, bars and restaurants. There are also park-specific owners-only events throughout the season, ideal for a social or two and a brilliant way to make friends with your fellow parkgoers. 

9. We’re dog friendly

At Haven, we’re keen believers that the furry members of the family shouldn’t miss out on the fun. We’ve got a whole host of dog-friendly parks with features that any canine will love. Check out what real Church Farm owners Derek and Gillian have to say about the park in this video. Or better yet, look at how much their dog, Nelly, woofs their beach walks.

There’s ample space to stretch the legs and enjoy the breath of fresh air, with a whole host of beaches just steps from our owners’ vans. Your best friend will be able to cuddle up and enjoy the interior of the static caravan just as much as the humans at the party.

10. Our 30-day money back guarantee

We realise just how much of an investment buying a static caravan is, so to help your journey to ownership run smoothly and to help you make the most informed decision, we’ve got a 30-day money-back guarantee that means you can rest easy. 

It’s reassurance that should anything unforeseen come up, we’ll refund you in full and you’ll be able to walk away with every single penny you planned to invest. Terms apply and are detailed below.

Let2offset - make no site fee payments until 2032

Let2offset is a contractual lettings product that offers eligible owners a guaranteed letting income at a preferential rate (calculated each year) in exchange for a stipulated number of letting breaks. It also allows eligible owners to pay their site fees and receive their letting income in 12 equal monthly instalments; the monthly site fee amount charged by Haven will be after deduction of the letting income.

‘Make no site fee payments until 2032 when using Let2offset’ is available at 33 Haven parks excluding Burnham, Cardigan View, Far Grange, Garreg Wen, Lydstep Beach, Riviere Sands and Seaview. The letting income received will vary by make, model and location. The monthly site fee payment does not include running costs e.g. utilities, rates & insurance.

“Make no site fee payments until 2032 when using Let2offset” is applicable to new and existing customer purchases of new Victory Ashberry 3 Bed or equivalent grade holiday home purchases made through Haven where customers have also signed up to Haven’s Let2offset contract. It is not applicable to private sales and cannot be used in conjunction with our free Site Fee promotion. An example of how “Make no site fee payments until 2032 when using Let2offset” operates under Let2offset is the purchase of a Victory Ashberry 3 Bed holiday home at Seton Sands with a monthly site fee of £667.08 (includes purchasing discount of £17.08) and monthly letting income of £673.17. The monthly difference equates to £23.17, which will be credited to the owner's account. Both letting income and site fees are subject to yearly pricing reviews and inflation. The monthly site fee costs and letting income shown in the example are based on 2025 figures. Modelled assumptions on expected annual site fee and letting income charges over the 7-year lettable life of the Victory Ashberry 3 Bed indicate that under Let2offset it is anticipated that these customers will continue to receive a monthly credit during this period, however, this is not guaranteed. The modelled assumptions are based on the historical performance of Haven over the past 5 years of trading as of 2024. Images are shown for representational purposes.
