This three-bedroom holiday caravan in Merlewood Country Park offers a compact, turnkey countryside escape just off the River Wyre. Built in 2016, the unit features an open-plan kitchen and living area, a main bedroom with ensuite shower, a separate WC, and off-street parking — ready for short breaks or occasional residential use.
The park provides useful on-site facilities including a laundrette, dog shower and walking area, resident alpacas, and complimentary weekend access to Acresfield Health Club & Spa. Local attractions, pubs and the weekly market in nearby Great Eccleston are a short drive away, while the setting delivers sweeping rural views and a calm community atmosphere.
Important practical points: the home is leasehold with only five years remaining, and an annual ground rent of £3,720. That short lease term and high ground rent make mortgage lending unlikely; buyers should expect purchase to be cash-only and factor ongoing park fees into ownership costs. The caravan is small with modest ceiling heights, suitable for holiday use or short-stay rental rather than full-time family living.
For buyers seeking an affordable, low-maintenance holiday base in an attractive rural park, this caravan presents clear appeal. Those expecting long-term security or mortgage finance should be cautious and obtain specialist advice on lease transfer, lender requirements, and park terms before committing.
