Static caravans for sale

Static Caravans for Sale Lake District

The Lake District and wider Cumbria offer some of the most beautiful holiday-home settings in Britain — woodland and lakeside parks with views that coastal sites simply cannot match.

The trade-off is season length and price: Cumbrian sites can be more expensive and wetter than the coast, so the right park is the one that fits how you actually want to use it.

Static caravans for sale in the Lake District

The short answer

How much are static caravans for sale in the Lake District?

New statics on Lake District and Cumbrian parks typically run £40k–£70k and used homes £15k–£40k, with annual site fees around £3k–£6k. Prices reflect the scenery but remain below the South West.

Lakes, woods and the Cumbrian coast

Parks cluster around the southern and eastern lakes — Windermere, Coniston and Ullswater — plus hidden woodland sites and a quieter strip along the Cumbrian coast. South Lakeland has the strongest choice and the highest demand.

The season in the Lakes is driven by the weather as much as the calendar. Confirm winter access, closed seasons and the park’s position on every shortlist.
