We welcome dogs on our parks but they must be kept on leads at all times and exercised in the designated areas. Only guide dogs are allowed in the complex and it is the responsibility of owners to clean up after their dogs and use the dog bins provided.
Did you know your holiday home could be earning you money when you are not there? Simply letting your holiday home for the times you are not there could contribute towards your site fees.

Our caravans and lodges are sold as holiday homes and therefore cannot be used as a permanent residence.
All of our parks have an 11 month season, meaning that you can use your holiday home every year from 7th February - 6th January. During the period from 7th January - 6th February, you are able to use your holiday home during the weekends (from 5pm Friday - 9am Monday).

Yes! Hoburne is proud to be a member of the NCC. What this means for you is that we have made a commitment to our customers to operate to the highest standards of customer service, to treat our customers with respect and to deal with them in a fair and open manner.
We are also members of the BH&HPA. All of our parks are graded under the 'Visit Britain' scheme and have achieved a minimum 4 star rating.
Brand new caravans are sold with a 15 or 20-year pitch licence agreement, depending on the park and its location on the park.
Brand new lodges have a 25-year licence from new.
Pre-owned holiday homes are sold with the remainder of their original licence agreement.
Many of our owners choose to part-exchange and renew their holiday home before their Pitch Licence Agreement expires, continuing to take advantage of our fantastic part-exchange rates and to enjoy all the benefits that Hoburne holiday home ownership can offer.
If at the end of your Pitch Licence Agreement you do not wish to continue with ownership, we have a number of trade contacts who may be interested in purchasing your holiday home.
Alternatively, you can remove your caravan from the site and the park will arrange for your caravan to be removed from the pitch and made available for collection by your chosen caravan transportation company.
There is a disconnection and de-siting charge for removing a caravan from its pitch which can vary depending on the location and whether a crane is required.
Any charges paid in advance (site fees, local authority rates, water charges, etc) are refunded on a pro-rata basis.
No. This activity is called “fronting” and is prohibited under FCA responsible lending regulations.
Flat rate interest is charged on the full, original loan amount for the entire loan term, while APR (Annual Percentage Rate) includes both interest and fees and is charged on the outstanding balance. This means flat rate loans can appear cheaper at first glance but end up costing significantly more than APR loans over time. APR is a more accurate representation of the total cost of borrowing and is required for consumer credit agreements in many places, like the UK.
If you’re unable to make your re-payments for any reason you should contact your finance provider as soon as possible. They have specialist teams who can advise you of your available options.
We can carry out a soft credit search which will give us a good indication of how likely you are to be accepted if we propose you. It’s not 100% foolproof, as it doesn’t check your entire credit file but is highly accurate.
We can settle your existing agreement for you as part of your part exchange so you’re not paying off two lots of finance.
We don’t often have the capacity to accept holiday home bring-on’s or park moves, however when we do it is dependent on the finance company and the park it’s coming from whether it can be moved.
Where we’re unable to take a bring on or park move with outstanding finance, we can often offer a part exchange option which would include settlement of any existing agreement.
Currently Santander Consumer Finance do not permit movement to another park.
Yes. You can make a lump sum payment at any time during your agreement to reduce your monthly payment. Or you can settle the agreement early in full. However, it’s important to understand that HP finance is not a bridging loan and should not be used in this way.
There is no penalty charge for settling your finance agreement early, but you will still have a portion of interest to pay on the balance – this is calculated as approximately 45 days’ worth of interest.
We work solely with Santander Consumer Finance for holiday home purchases and can only refer you to them. You can source funding from an alternative lender but would not be able to secure your borrowing against the holiday homein that situation.
Our park teams can provide you with finance examples to help you compare finance with other funding options you may have available.
There are many ways you could fund your purchase, and finance isn’t necessarily the right option for everyone. We’re not here to tell you what the best option is, but what we can do is to make sure you have all the information you need to help you chose the funding option that is right for you.
Hoburne acts as broker on behalf of Santander Consumer Finance, offering Hire Purchase finance.
Of course! We may ask your permission to advise the Santander Consumer Finance team. This is to ensure they make reasonable adjustments for you – e.g., large-print documents for visually impaired customers.
No. Currently, Santander Consumer Finance doesn't have a joint application facility.
No. To get the most competitive APR possible, Hoburne do not take any commission for the sale of holiday home finance, and haven’t done since 2017.
We ask for a minimum 10% deposit (20% for special offer APR rates), and find that many people often chose to increase their deposit above this.
If you are part-exchanging an existing holiday home, motorhome or touring caravan, the value of this can also be used towards the deposit.
There are lots of great reasons why our customers use finance. For the many customers considering finance, they like that HP can give greater borrowing power, with a longer repayment term than a personal loan, and is secured
against the holiday home rather than borrowing against your own home.
Our park teams can take you through all the potential pros and cons of using finance to fund your purchase.
We offer terms ranging from 24-months (2 years) up to 120-months (10 years), depending on the age of the holiday home and the remaining time available on the licence agreement.
We currently have a special offer rate of 7.9% APR for new holiday homes and all twin unit purchases, up to an 84-month term.
Our standard holiday home finance APR is 10.9% representative for agreements up to 120-months.
Hire Purchase – or HP for short – allows you to purchase the holiday home in fixed monthly instalments over a set period. You can take possession of the holiday home straight away, with ownership transferred to you by Santander Consumer Finance once the final payment has been made.
