Eyefor Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Our house is sold and our new build is being delayed by some last minute design changes and the shortages of some materials. Not wishing to hold up the (truly carp) English house selling process, I was thinking about buying a mobile home or static caravan - but the cost of relocation and re-siting it is so prohibitive plus they depreciate faster than a falling brick. So, would anyone have (or know of) a large 5/6 + berth Winnebago / Motorhome that I could rent for about three months that I can park on our site (concrete hard standing) just for my wife and I to live in. A touring caravan is too small as I need to work from home and SWMBO needs to lie in bed until the crack of noon. If you're paying storage fees it would save money and we can come to a reasonable rent agreement? We have electric, water, LPG and mains drainage on site. Alternatives thoughts appreciated.

Vince Green Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 The only company I know that rent out Winnies do it for the film industry and they are eye wateringly expensive. It would probably be a lot cheaper to stay in a travel lodge Have you considered a couple of older touring caravans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fern01 Posted August 29, 2021 Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 An older Static caravan that has to be moved off its site due to site owners rules on age etc can be bought reasonably cheaply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
