Can I live in a static holiday home at Cosgrove Leisure Park all year round? No - Cosgrove Leisure Park is a seasonal holiday home park, therefore we do not have any residential caravans or mobile homes.
Our site licence permits us to open from April 1st until November 1st each year.
Can I visit during the winter closed period? Yes - the Park is open from 9.00am until 4.00pm daily throughout the winter period, however the electricity, water and sewerage services are all switched off during the winter. During this period you may visit to fish or to inspect your caravan, but you can not under any circumstances stay beyond 4.00pm or overnight.
We no longer take tents, trailer tents or folding campers. All of our touring pitches are for touring caravans or motorhomes.
If I have a static holiday home, do I have to pay Council Tax? No - because the Park is only seasonal it is not classed as residential. You should therefore pay your Council Tax on your permanent UK residence i.e. your usual home.
Yes, as long as they are kept on a lead and you clean up after them. Dog Bins are located around the Park and we also have exercise areas where you can let them off the lead for a run.
The following information was obtained from www.tvlicensing.co.uk "If you or any other person uses a TV in your static caravan or mobile home and another is being used in your main home at the same time, you'll need a separate TV Licence. However, if a TV isn't being used in your static caravan or mobile home at the same time as in your home, you don't need a separate TV Licence. In which case you'll just need to complete a declaration form The TV Licence for your main address will, however, automatically cover any TV used in a touring caravan, vehicle or boat, or any televisions operated by their own internal batteries. For more information, or a declaration form, phone 0870 241 6468".
Do you rent out any caravans or holiday homes? We do not rent out any holiday homes or caravans and owners on site are not permitted to rent out or sub let their holiday homes.
When does the swimming pool open? Our heated outdoor pool is generally from April until the end of September.
