When we think of holiday homes, many of us many imagine places outside our own country, such as Spain, Florida, or other popular destinations on foreign shores. However, more and more people are buying homes here in the British Isles, specifically in Wales. As a beautiful country with much to offer, this should come as no surprise, yet some people may not have even considered the possibility. If you’re looking to buy a holiday home in a fantastic location, take a look at some of our favorite reasons to choose Wales:
Stunning Scenery
Wales has some of the most beautiful scenery in the world, with many a hill to climb, a forest to explore, and an ancient castle to visit. As more and more people begin holidaying closer to home rather than going abroad, Wales has become a favorite for many UK families. Whichever region of Wales you buy a home in, there will be some amazing sights to see and places to explore—one day you can go to the beach and have fun in the sand, and the next you can climb Mount Snowdon! Whatever your age, fitness level, or hobbies, you’ll find plenty to keep you smiling.
A Second Home Close to Home
Wherever you are in the UK, owning holiday homes in Wales ensures you can just pack up the car and be there within a matter of hours, whether you’ve got a week with the family or a romantic weekend with your partner to enjoy. You can also use your holiday home whenever you want, without having to worry about booking flights or organizing timeshares.
You can also visit the local towns and cities—North Wales, home to various static caravan parks, offers easy access to some of England’s most famous locations: Liverpool, Manchester, and historic Chester. Further south, holidaymakers can visit Cardiff and the Brecon Beacons national park. And, of course, taking the family and pets is much easier when you can all fit in the car, without having to deal with passports, airports, or currency exchanges.
The Price Tag
Buying a home on any one of the holiday parks in Wales is much more affordable than buying one further away, whether you want to buy a small static caravan or a lodge big enough for the whole family. Holiday parks also offer various facilities to keep the whole family entertained at affordable prices, and are also open throughout much of the year, offering a fun, relaxing getaway whenever you need it.
