Easy to buy
Up until here we haven’t given any main differences in buying a lodge from a holiday house/cottage but buying a holiday lodge is nothing like buying a holiday house/cottage it’s a much simpler process with no stamp duty required or long lengthy processes (a much lesser expense!)
Our team make it simple and straightforward ensuring that before anything is signed and agreed, all your questions are answered, and you are happy with the location and choices. We have had owners start a holiday in their new luxurious lodge within 10 days of making their initial enquiry! (much less stressful than buying a house!) If you have already carried out your research this also could be you if our locations tick off all your boxes. (We do encourage all potential owners to research all options and get all their questions answered).
Questions to ask yourself
We understand buying a luxury lodge is a decision that shouldn’t be taken lightly, they are a high valued product and there are lot so questions you should ask yourself whilst carrying out your research, here are just some to get you started:
Where in the UK do you want to come back to time and time again? Remember you’ll be returning, so the destination you choose for your lodge is an important initial question.
What is your budget? There are lodges of all types out there on the market with a large range of budgets. Make sure you don’t exceed the budget you have affordably set; you’ll end up questioning your decision rather than loving your lodge.
Do your research. It’s a competitive market and lodges come in all shapes, sizes and builds. Make sure you are purchasing from a reputable company. All of our lodges are made of the finest timber, though some in the market even though classed as a ‘lodge’ have not one inch of timber in them.
Who will be using the lodge? Do you intend to bring the whole family or is it just for two? Don’t be persuaded to buy a larger lodge for the one or two family holidays you MIGHT have. If it’s for the two of you having several breaks through the year, accommodate yourself for that.
Write a list of all your questions and concerns and make sure you compare. You will undoubtedly have a number of questions and it’s important to get them answered. Understand what additional costs will need to be paid other than for the lodge itself. Compare with other locations too so you get a clearer picture.
There are more points to consider, but hopefully the above will help you get a step closer to holiday lodge ownership with lots of happy times to be had.
