Make your dreams come true with a Tingdene Lifestyle holiday home and appreciate its magical powers - it turns DIY from a chore to an exciting project and it turns a day trip into the trip of a lifetime.
1. Decor - Decorating your holiday home
This is something really magical about owning your own UK holiday home. It’s a mystery - even if you love a bit of home styling and design, sooner or later decorating your home becomes less décor and more DIY. Somehow it becomes less of a pleasure and more of a chore. Nobody knows why, but with a holiday home that never happens. It’s magic...
It could be that having your own UK holiday home, and having the freedom to imbue it with your own style and personality, is such a brilliant thing that you never tire of it. It could be that a holiday home is a fun place, and making it your place is a fun thing to do. Or it could just be that a UK holiday home of your own is, quite simply, magical.
Caldecott Hall Country Park, Norfolk is a fabulous location to decorate your static caravan. It’s close to to the coast, the countryside and the Broads. And it’s absolutely ideal if golf is your thing. And if golf is your thing, why not let it show in how you style your Great Yarmouth holiday home? Add pictures, cartoons, golf themed books and memorabilia to the look of the place. It sets the scene for your holiday time there, and if you’re looking to let out your holiday home, it’s really appealing to like minded visitors.
Broadlands Park and Marina is another Tingdene location that’s loaded with décor potential. Think Norfolk Broads, boats and all things nautical. It doesn’t have to be super traditional. Let’s be honest, a ship’s wheel on the wall isn’t for everyone nowadays. But try some brass and wood, chunky crockery, some rope handled trays - you get the picture.
Further north, Redcar Beach, North Yorkshire is a fabulous Tingdene location for your holiday home. You’re close to the moors so, for your holiday home, you could pick up on the natural and earthy colour schemes that reflect the natural landscape, as well as the seriously cool retro look of the 70s. There’s golf nearby too so you could do that thing here as well. And you’re within striking distance of some great resorts, like Redcar, so a traditional seaside vibe would work well. Striped fabric to echo the deck chairs. Bright colours to reference candy floss and rock. You might want to think carefully though about drawing on the Dracula links to Whitby. It could work, but think it through.
With Skegness on the doorstep you can certainly pick up on traditional seaside style in your holiday home at Tingdene Mablethorpe Park. Some of the super stylish chalets here are built of cedar. That opens the door to a whole Scandinavian palette. Very 2023!
We’re not setting out to write the definitive guide to holiday home décor. But these broad brush strokes will give you the overall picture. Be bold, reflect the local area and, most importantly, have fun with it.

2. Day trips - best day trips in England
The day trip is an essential part of the great British holiday. You know that. The thing is it’s so much more fun when it’s a trip out from your holiday home. You’re going to find places within easy reach, but away from your every day patch.
Getting to know the area around your holiday home is part of the magic. Cycle or walk. Take a picnic or find a great pub. Take your time; take all day. But, and this is another part of the real magic, when you come home to your holiday home, it’s so different to coming home…to your home. It’s more relaxed, more fun and more magical.
Bridlington Harbour, close to South Shore
Take South Shore, East Yorkshire for example. With a holiday home there you can so easily take a day trip to Bridlington. It’s all of the fun of the classic seaside resort, it’s packed with things to do and it’s right there on the beautiful east Yorkshire coast.
Or, from Caldecott Hall Country Park, Norfolk it’s a very simple journey to have a similar seaside resort day at Great Yarmouth. This is the Norfolk coast at its holiday making best. Ride the rides, eat the chips and then relax in the evening at your holiday home in a tranquil woodland setting. Magic!
Did we mention Dracula? Yes we did. He might not be the cheeriest of themes for your holiday home décor but his legend lives on in the lovely town of Whitby. With a holiday home at Redcar Beach, North Yorkshire you can make a day trip to Whitby and savour its history and its hospitality.
Ness Point in Lowestoft, close to North Denes
And for that perfect mix of seclusion and activities think about a holiday home at Tingdene North Denes. The UK’s most easterly point places you perfectly for long lazy days in peaceful countryside as well as busy day trips to bustling towns. And because it is the UK’s most easterly point, you can stay put some mornings and see the sun come up before anyone else. How magical is that?
3. Dream a dream - enjoy a UK holiday home with your family
Owning your own UK holiday home is a dream for many of us. And it’s a dream come true for more of us each year. Yes, we’re facing tough times, and right now the cost of living is so daunting that we sometimes don’t dare to dream.
And yet, the financial pressures we face, and the post pandemic preparedness to face up to the need to plan for a future, have made us even more aware of the need to have a dream. To have some magic in our lives.
There’s no better way of creating memories and magic than spending time with family and friends. Your own UK holiday home can deliver that magic.
The Waveney River Centre in Norfolk is an authentic slice of Broadland. Super lodges, tucked away in the scenery that defines the region it’s the perfect escape. It’s the boats and boatyard world of your dreams.
Tingdene North Denes is the dream place to get away from it all. Caldecott Hall Country Park, Norfolk is where golfers dream of as a go to holiday home.
All over the UK, Tingdene holiday park locations offer you a way of making your dreams come true. Think about your savings or pension pot. You’ve dreamed of turning them into a way of spending more time together, and having more family time. A UK holiday home makes financial sense and family fun.
When you’ve been over the figures time and again (we know!) you’ve doubtless dreamed of having a bit more income. Even post retirement. It’s not selfish - it’s sensible. A UK holiday home of your own could generate income from holiday lettings. No matter how much you love it, you won’t be there all the time. So when you’re not living the dream, your holiday home could help fund the next dream.
And there it is. Even more proof, if more proof were needed, that your own UK holiday home does possess magical powers. It turns DIY from a chore to an exciting project. It turns a day trip into the trip of a lifetime. With a perfect ending, every time. It makes dreams come true.
Come on, admit it. That’s magic.
