What you pay to hire a static caravan for a week
Static caravan hire prices depend on when you travel and where you book. Park-run breaks start from around £99 for two nights off-peak at major operators. A week in a mid-range caravan through a park like Parkdean Resorts typically runs from £200 to £600 depending on season and location, with premium weeks in Cornwall or the Lake District reaching higher. The same caravan booked privately from an owner who lists on platforms aimed at holidaymakers often comes in lower.
The gap between peak and off-peak can be substantial. Peak periods include school holidays, May half-term, and the summer weeks from mid-July through August. Off-peak covers term time from September through to Easter, excluding Christmas and February half-term. Some parks also use mid-season pricing that sits between the two. The difference for a week in the same caravan can run to hundreds of pounds.
- Park-run bookings from around £99 for a short break off-peak
- Typical week costs between £200 and £600 depending on season
- Peak weeks (school holidays, summer) command the highest rates
- Off-peak means term time outside Christmas and February half-term
Entertainment passes are usually extra
One cost that surprises first-timers is the entertainment pass. If you book through a promotion or a private owner, access to the swimming pool, kids' clubs, evening shows and other park facilities is not usually included in your caravan hire. You pay for the pass separately when you arrive or in advance through the park.
