Park Home & Holiday Living  |  No.649 Living The Dream At Willowgrove
Spring is almost upon us and, like many others at this time of
year, my thoughts inevitably turn to giving my home a seasonal
refresh. If you’re of a similar mind, our comprehensive specialist
suppliers and services directory will make for indispensible reading.
Unless you own a park home, or have spent time researching the
subject, you might not realise how essential it is to engage the services
of a specialist operator. Virtually every aspect of park home living -
whether it be refurbishment, interior decoration, insurance, legal help
and advice or garden design - requires some form of expert knowledge.
If you opt for a refurbisher who’s not familiar with the construction of
a park home, you could run into some serious problems. Fit the wrong
type of replacement window frame, for instance, and the excess weight
could unbalance the structure of your park home (odd-leg frames are
what are required, in case you were wondering).
Go for a decking company with no understanding of park home
legislation or regard for site rules and regulations and the outfi t could
unwittingly put you in breach of the six-metre rule (by law, there must
be at least six metres’ space between neighbouring park homes). There
are many other examples I could cite. Suffi ce to say, our specialist
directory (see page 47) could save you a lot of aggravation! As well as our 39-page directory, there’s plenty more to enjoy in our April issue. We bring you new home reviews on Tingdene and Homeseeker models
(see page 26). We’ve also got an exciting new columnist joining the team! Chris Wildgoose, a park resident at award-winning Pant Mawr, in Harlech, explains more about life at the Welsh park and why she loves it in her
maiden article for PH&HC. Read her debut offering in full on page 100.
