Holiday Home Ownership

Ownership At Silver Sands

Silver Sands Holiday Park has been operating since 1950 and after 74 years, we are offering holiday home ownership for the first time. Whether you have holidayed with us in the past, or are looking for a special bolt hole, we have a wide range offering of holiday homes and lodges available to suit you.

Silver Sands is just a stones throw from Kennack Sands beach, located within The Lizard Area Of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Whether you’re looking for somewhere to spend quality time relaxing with your significant other or a place to bring your family and friends to enjoy long country and coastal walks, then Silver Sands has a lot to offer you.

The Cornish coast is famous for a whole host of reasons; whether it be; secret beaches & coves, long walks along the famous South West coastal path, fantastic choices of places to eat and drink or simply sitting in peaceful surroundings and losing yourself in a book.

Kennack Sands stands out in Cornwall for its unique blend of natural beauty, family-friendly atmosphere, and accessibility. In essence, Kennack Sands isn’t just a beach; it’s a multifaceted coastal haven that caters to a variety of tastes and preferences. It’s dual coves, inviting waters, surrounding landscape, family-friendly amenities, and accessibility all contribute to its unique charm within the diverse tapestry of Cornwall’s coastal treasures.

If you could ‘sea’ yourself here, then owning a holiday home will mean you can come and go as you please, enjoying the delights of the surrounding area but returning to your special place time after time.

For the first time in 74 years, you can be part of our ownership community at Silver Sands Holiday Park. Your experience as an owner is of the highest priority to us.

FAQs and Running Costs

When I buy my holiday home at Silver Sands, will I be able to live in it?

Siver Sands operates as a holiday park and not a residential park. This means the holiday home you purchase is meant to be used as a second home for the purposes of having holidays/breaks away from your residential property.

Do I have to remove my holiday home from the park once it becomes 15 years old?

Holiday parks generally offer on a licence period for a specific set amount of time. When you buy a holiday home caravan, we will offer a term of 15 years (20 years for a holiday lodge). When the term comes to the end, this doesn’t necessarily mean that we will ask you to leave, providing you are still meeting the licence conditions, we can look to extend your licence at no additional cost to you. Some parks do operate age policies on holiday home, we don’t.

Can I let my Holiday Home to offset some of the running costs, like my site fees or utilities?

Silver Sands offers a holiday home letting programme, whereby we fully manage the service of selling the holiday, customer communications, holiday home cleaning. You are not permitted to let your holiday home privately on a commercial basis in exchange for monies. You can of course have friends and family use your holiday home.

Are there advantages to buying a holiday home on a holiday park as opposed to property in the area?

Holiday home ownership on a park is less stress and worry for you, with all the maintenance and grounds taken care of, even when you’re not here. You also do not pay any stamp duty, legal fees or second home council tax rates.

What do the site fee’s cover?

The site fees are for the arrangement of your holiday home to be sited on a pitch on Silver Sands Holiday Park. They also include all of the grounds maintenance around you holiday and home and the park. They also ensure you have access to the park reception team, whenever you need them whether in person, on a call or by e-mail.

Can I buy a holiday home as investment to make money?

Owning a holiday home is a lifestyle choice and this should be your main consideration when deciding to buy a holiday home. Holiday homes are depreciating assets, however we do offer holiday home letting which can help cover your running costs subject to the among of letting you do with the park.

Can I let my holiday home out?

Subletting your holiday in a commercial sense, must be carried in partnership with the park. This ensures the park holds one register of all guests who are visiting the site and can maintain overall safety of all park users. This means you cannot let with any agents i.e. Air BnB or a local agent. Silver Sands has operated for nearly 75 years and has a loyal base of holiday makers who return year after year.
You can of course allow your friends and family to visit your holiday home, however this should not be done a commercial letting basis where you are selling stays in your holiday home.
