How Much Does a Static Caravan Cost?

The short answer: a new static caravan typically costs £40,000–£75,000 including standard furnishing, a used one £10,000–£45,000, and then you pay an annual site fee of around £3,000–£9,000 on top.

The short answer

How much does a static caravan cost in the UK?

New statics usually run £40k–£75k; good used ones £15k–£45k. Budget another £3k–£9k per year in site fees plus insurance, maintenance and running costs.

New static caravan prices

The list price varies with size, brand and specification. A two-bedroom family model starts around £40,000; larger three-bedroom models with decking, premium furnishings and higher-spec fixtures sit around £55,000–£75,000.

Brands such as Willerby, Pemberton and Atlas sell through many parks, and the park’s “packages” usually include siting, connection and first-year fees — read exactly what is included.

Used static caravan prices

Used statics are where the value is. A five-to-eight-year-old model in good condition often costs £20,000–£40,000, and older homes can be found below that.

The catch: the park must approve the buyer, transfer the pitch, and older caravans face increasing age limits at some parks. Always check the park’s age rules before buying used.

The annual running costs

  • Site fee / pitch fee: roughly £3,000–£9,000 per year, rising annually
  • Insurance: £150–£500 per year depending on value and location
  • Rates/utilities: variable — some included in site fees, some metered
  • Maintenance & winterising: £200–£500 per year

Frequently asked questions

Do the listed prices include everything?+
Not always. Confirm whether siting, connections, first-year fees, decking and extras are included or priced separately.
Can I finance a static caravan?+
Yes — parks often offer finance, and independent lenders exist. Compare APR carefully; holiday-home loans are generally more expensive than secured borrowing.
Are static caravans a good investment?+
No — treat them as a lifestyle purchase. They depreciate, and the value is in the holidays, not the return.
