Your not the only people to look at winterised statics, only last month I helped our friends go round many all year sites up here looking at statics, Amazing prices as well , Beautifully fitted out 3 bedroom statics used from £20 K new from £30 K, Purposed built residential rather than holidays are popping up right across the north, some contain Log Cabin type holiday homes, others static caravans up to 16 ft wide and 40 plus feet long that are fully winterised and connected to the mains. We are considering giving up our house in 8 years to our son and moving into one for ourselves, but i want one with a plot big enough to keep chooks etc on.
Our friend chris met a lady who lives on an adults only site and there is a waiting list for plots, but here friend lives on a neighbouring site that is open 11 1/2 months a year ( helps avoid council tax apparently) and the two weeks when its shut everyone just goes on holiday or visits family. Damn cheap and pleasant way to get out of cities I reckon. Say £30K for a good quality static and £1600 a year for all fees cept gas, thats damn good going for families wanting to get out of town or blocks of flats and live some place green and pleasant.
