What are the benefits of a park visit?
We can't recommend a park ownership visit enough, it'll give you the opportunity to see the park through the lens of an owner and discover the lifestyle that ownership could bring. Our team love to show off the brilliant aspects of the park that our current owners love too, but they also enjoy matching the right caravan to the right people.

The team know all the the crucial information and they'll take you through this in an easy-to-follow manner. You'll also get plenty of time to ask any questions you may have.
Will I get time to explore?
We want you to enjoy the experience of being on the park and you'll have time to explore on your own. This is a great time to think further about your needs and elements such as:
On-park facilities - you'll be guided around all the facilities during you visit and you could always factor in some time to enjoy some of them while you're there. Availability will vary by season and park, so please ask the park team about what you can do on the day when they call you just before your future visit.
Things to do near the park - are there enough dog walking areas for the furry family member? Are there attractions nearby if you like to explore? How far is it to the nearest town, village or beach and can you walk to it?
The atmosphere of the park - this will depend on time of year you visit so you may also need to think about seasonality here.
The journey to the park - making the journey will give you an idea of the length and complexity of the route. Can you imagine yourself making the trip multiple times and can friends and family easily get to the park too?
What are the next steps if the park is for us?
We want you to make an informed decision regarding ownership so when you're ready we can go through all the financials around the holiday home and pitches you're interested in, including:

Let2offset - make no site fee payments until 2031
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 when using Let2offset until 2031’ 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 when using Let2offset until 2031” is applicable to new and existing customer purchases of new Atlas Sahara 3 Bed or equivalent or superior 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. It is available across 40% of eligible Parks and applies when letting a new Atlas Sahara 3 Bed holiday home (or equivalent or superior grade for 15 weeks.
An example of how “Make no site fee payments when using Let2offset until 2031” operates under Let2offset is the purchase of an Atlas Sahara 3 Bed holiday home at Primrose Valley with a monthly site fee of £585.00 (includes purchasing discount of £45) and monthly letting income of £803.67. The monthly difference equates to £218.67, which will be credited to the owner's account. Both letting income and site fees are subject to yearly pricing reviews and the monthly site fee costs and letting income shown in the example are based on 2024 figures.
Modelled assumptions on expected annual site fee and letting income charges over the 7-year lettable life of the Atlas Sahara 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.
