Welcome to The Leisure Company’s ultimate guide to buying your first caravan! We know that buying a caravan is more than just a purchase; it’s the start of a lifestyle full of adventure, relaxation, and unforgettable memories. In our latest YouTube video, “Everything You Need to Know Before Buying Your First Caravan – Your Dream Holiday Home Awaits”, we covered all the essentials you’ll need to consider before making your decision. But for those who want a bit more detail, this blog post is here to give you an in-depth look at the steps and choices involved. As a family-owned business with over 30 years of experience, TLC offers everything you need, from selecting your holiday park to our full aftercare services, so your journey is as enjoyable as your destination.


Step 1: Choose Your Ideal Holiday Park

The first step in your caravan ownership journey is deciding where you want to spend your holidays. Choosing the right holiday park is crucial, as this will be the home base for your dream holiday retreat. The Leisure Company partners with over 50 holiday parks across the East Coast and UK countryside, giving you access to a wide range of locations and amenities.

Key Considerations:

  • Travel Time: Consider how far you’re comfortable traveling regularly. We have parks on the coast, in the countryside, and more remote, secluded spots.
  • Location & Amenities: Whether you want seaside views, a pet-friendly site, or access to on-site pools and entertainment, TLC will help match you to the right park.
  • Park Facilities: Interested in fishing lakes, clubhouses, or playgrounds for the kids? Different parks offer different facilities to match your lifestyle.
  • Costs: Site fees vary by location and facilities. Our parks range from affordable to luxury sites with comprehensive amenities, and we can help you budget for utilities and insurance as well.

Step 2: Select Your TLC Holiday Home

Once you’ve chosen your perfect park, it’s time to pick a caravan or lodge that suits your lifestyle and needs. We offer a wide selection of new and used caravans for sale, with various layouts, styles, and features.

Factors to Consider:

  • Usage: Will this be a cozy getaway for you or a place for family gatherings? Knowing how you’ll use it helps in choosing the right features.
  • Bedrooms: Do you need two bedrooms, or will a larger, family-oriented model work better? TLC offers everything from compact lodges to spacious three- and four-bedroom caravans.
  • Living Spaces: Modern holiday homes come with flexible options – from freestanding furniture and open kitchens to wall-mounted entertainment setups and even surround sound.
  • Bathrooms & Extras: A single bathroom may be enough, or you might want an ensuite. We can help find the perfect setup based on your preferences.
  • View & Layout: Consider the outlook and accessibility; our holiday homes come with options like front-opening doors for panoramic views or extra seating to make the most of your surroundings.

Step 3: Leave the Rest to Us – TLC’s Comprehensive Aftercare
