They say ‘home is where the heart is’. Your Tingdene holiday home can be where the happiness is!
Is buying a holiday home good investment?
That’s the big question for starters. And the answer is ‘probably more so than you think’.
Because now more than ever we know that life is bigger than purely financial matters. It’s about taking time and making memories. But, when it comes back to the balance sheet, buying your own UK holiday home could stack up as a good investment.
First off, we know that property is often proven as a sound bet over decades of differing financial climates. Holiday homes are in a slightly different category to traditional property investment, however projections indicate that income from holiday lettings is set to be higher than the returns you could expect from the ‘buy-to let’ concept.
Interest in UK holidays is continuing to grow, which means owning a UK holiday home right now could be very timely. Why? Because as well as having a place you can enjoy yourselves, many holiday homes are ideal for letting out. And that means the potential for income to offset your annual costs. You’re able to let your holiday home at most of our parks, subject to your licence or lease agreement, so just ask for more information if this is something you’re looking to do.
Most importantly, it’s a lifestyle investment. It gives you the opportunity to create a home from home, spend time with your loved ones and appreciate your down time in some beautiful parts of the UK.
Get paid for your pad with Holidays For Allseasons

You can get paid for your pad by utilising our Managed Letting Scheme through Holidays For Allseasons, whereby we’ll let your holiday home to holidaymakers and handle all of the work that goes into property lettings.
Think about the location of your holiday home first
The UK is blessed with such wonderful coastlines and countryside. Popular places to consider are Norfolk, Suffolk, Lincolnshire and Yorkshire. Tingdene have outstanding offers at all of them.
Think too about what you like to do in your leisure time. Walking, cycling, golf… the sort of activities that you like, and people letting from you might like.
It’s about making time for yourselves, so think less about renovating a derelict cottage and more about a holiday home that’s ready from the get-go. We can certainly help there, we have some superb holiday homes that are ideally located and move-in ready.
There’s Caldecott Hall Country Park in Norfolk for example - if golf is your thing this is your place.
Or the Waveney River Centre; think Norfolk Broads and boating and birdwatching and scenery.
Further north, and in totally different scenery, there’s Redcar Beach in North Yorkshire.
And South Shore in the East Riding with it’s brand new seaside development.
Like walking? The Lincolnshire Wolds are beautiful and Mablethorpe Park is in a wonderful location close to the coast.
What to look for in a holiday home
Start with what’s outside your holiday home. It’s about location. There’s scenery and geography to consider but think as well about being near to attractions and popular places.
Inside your holiday home you’ll need to think about your priorities. It’s fun to decorate and customise your holiday home but ultimately it is a holiday home. So, you want low maintenance and high pleasure, and leisure. You want enough gadgets to make life easy and fun, but not so much tech that it becomes like work.
It’s another area where talking to Tingdene makes so much sense. Superb lodges, chalets and static caravans, in excellent locations, managed by professionals. That sounds more like the easy option. Doesn’t it?
Is a holiday home in the UK a good idea?
Let’s cut to the chase - a UK holiday home means less travel and less hassle. There’s the big one right there.
UK holidays, ‘staycations’, call them what you will; holidays in the UK are becoming more popular all the time. Be honest; do you still crave the hassle and pressure of airports? Does the whole booking, possible cancellation, travel restrictions, and frankly the cost, still hold a magical appeal? Thought not.
More and more of us are realising just how much the UK has to offer. In fact, more and more of us are beginning to realise how little of the UK we’ve actually visited and explored. Beaches, byways, seaside, countryside, there’s so much to see and enjoy.
Should I buy a holiday home?
A holiday home in the UK gives you somewhere to go to when you want to. It’s somewhere to share time with your family and friends. And it’s a possible source of income over and above the return on your investment.
Talk it through with Tingdene, who know all about the best places to be and how best to buy your own holiday home; you can fast track your way to holiday home ownership, guided by professionals at every step.
And when it comes to your heart, your own UK holiday home makes a lot of sense too. This is where you can be yourselves. It’s how to put your savings, or pension pot, to really good use. It’s about you, your family and your future, to make memories, take time and be happy…
