Living permanently in a holiday lodge.

I think you will find that different councils have different rules depending on where you live.
The lodges near me are sold for a 50 week occupancy and you have to vacate on 14th February returning on 1st March (two weeks). You are allowed to go in during the day 10-4 but not sleep there. The council in my area do actually go walk about to make checks. Details about occupancy should be on their T&C's received when they purchased the lodge. I hope this helps in some way :-)0 -

No one needs to join MSE to read the threads, nor does this poster write anything that cold be construed as providing some personal advantage, so isn't it a little early to be questioning their motives?sammyjammy wrote: »How very strange, you joined the forum to search for a post that hasn't been active for nearly six months ....

It's best to start your own thread. This one hasn't been posted on since 2019.coop08 said:My sister is buying a lodge on a holiday Park with 12 month licence. She has said my parents can live in it if they want as long as they pay any bills, can they do this???
The terms and conditions would need to be read to know what they can and cannot do2 -
A 12 month licence means that the lodge can be occupied for holiday purposes on any day of the year. It does not mean that the lodge can be occupied as a permanent residence.coop08 said:My sister is buying a lodge on a holiday Park with 12 month licence.

As lincroft says.But best to read the lease/licence for the precise rules. We can't see them!0
