Do we buy a Static Caravan? | The Rolling Rucks 

reminds me of many a caravan holidya when my kids were little. YOu kids are so lovey, so excited and remembering to say thanks to you

Very best of luck to you all... a brave move

I have owned a caravan for 14years and have loved every minute till they put site fee's up from £7000 to £8000 This year .

As an unregulated industry, they rip you off when you buy but people are too hooked on the dream till something changes...then they think the park are unfair offering them so little when they upgrade or sell but the truth is you are ripped off massively when you purchase. Statics don't cost a lot, parks buy them for up to 50% discount but make up any selling price they like. They give you the Glass guide (true price when you sell). People need to research before buying as lots of shocks can await.

The new caravan looks just like my inlaws caravan 😊👍

We have got a static caravan in Powys wales had it for 5 years and our site hasn't got any entertainment on but we love it it's go lovely country site all around us .our granddaughters who are nearly 12 love coming with us x

I’m glad it was a treat, I was thinking how is the RU-vid going to work in a static, but obviously it does as a treat 😊

Very enjoyable video. We thought of getting a static last year until we looked into the site fees etc... We will stick with a Moho for now 😂

Another good video. But I watch it with one eye closed

Static caravan is great if you want to keep holidaying in the same place. I'd prefer the motorhome or campervan.

Fantastic guys thanks for another great vlog👏🏻 Tenby is our favourite place it's lush down there! It holds so many fantastic memories for us, it really is and always will be a special place in our hearts❤We had a static caravan (or several) in Kiln Park for nearly 17 years, we were in Sandpiper just behind the putting green, it was amazing we then done the mistake of upgrading and moving to Sandmartin where swiftly upgraded again to Caldey View, next to where you were staying. By this point the children were older and we decided to buy a tourer as well as the static and rent out the Static to cover some of the ground rent. What a major mistake😢 People never respect your stuff like you do and therefore we had so many problems that we lost the love for our static. It also came to the fact that University fees for our eldest had to be paid for and therefore at the time nearly £6000 site fees (when we sold the van) that had to be paid upfront in the march of each year was the final nail in the coffin. So we sold up and put that money towards University fees. Then after both children had moved out and and were set up we decided to purchase the touring caravan again and to spend quality time on us! and we love it! What ever you decide we'll be here on your journey. Thanks👍🏻

We loomed at static caravans but you don't get the same sence off adventure and can get bored off same place no freedom to go other places like abroad you got your accommodation with you all the best donny

I used to own a static caravan at kiln Park for 12 years until couple years ago. They put the site fees up so much it was £6500 a year in end. On top of buying the caravan and they only allow to have your static to be 7 years old or younger.

Hi , love your video . As you we are thinking of buying a static ? Should we buy one

Oh no, Not Tenby, nightmare holiday, in the 90's. That was the site my brothers' took their caravans, we were sleeping in big bruvs awning. It poured down, it leaked, the bbq callapsed, we went home after 3 days coz hubby took ill, he couldnt walk far & used a wheel chair & we hit hills everywhere.(Hubby died shortly after). So never been back. Maybe now I have a new hubby & a campervan I should try Tenby again. Lol.

Thanks for sharing guy’s excellent vlog 👍😎

That caravan isn't actually £40k they are churning out new caravans with very low spec and charging big sums but a 2012 caravan may actually be worth more on the open market because it's higher spec. Not my opinion but one of the trusted traders in the industry who helps people as opposed to ripping them off x

Hi I was thinking getting a static caravan how much do they charge for the year for just a small site. Thanks
