Residential Park Homes Sites
The Mobile Homes Act 2013 was introduced on 26th May 2013. This legislation is specifically related to Residential Caravans & Park Homes and does not apply to Holiday Caravan Parks.
The majority of Caravan Parks in the East Lindsey District Council area are for Holiday use only. There are a small number of sites however, where you are permitted to live permanently, as Planning Permission and a Site Licence have been granted for permanent residential accommodation.
These Residential Parks are licenced under the Mobile Homes Act 2013.
List of Residential Park Home Sites in the East Lindsey Area (in Alphabetical Order)
Below is a table listing of all of the Residential Park Home Sites in East Lindsey where you may live.
If the site you are living on or proposing to live on is not listed here, then the park is for Holiday use only. It does not have Planning Permission to allow permanent residential accommodation and you CANNOT live there. Please note that some holiday parks are allowed to open for 12 months of the year but this does not mean that they are residential as you must have a main address other than your caravan.
Should you wish to purchase a residential caravan or park home, we strongly recommend that you consult a solicitor before signing any agreement and ensure that a full planning history search has been completed to establish that the residential use of the caravan is lawful.
