Cornwall remains one of the UK’s most in-demand counties for a holiday lodge, thanks to its beaches, surf towns and consistently strong staycation demand — which also means it’s a competitive market to buy into.

What drives price in Cornwall

Proximity to the coast, the park’s season length, and whether sub-letting is permitted all move the price more than lodge size alone. A shorter season (some Cornish parks close over winter) can mean a lower purchase price but also less letting income if that matters to you.

Buying to let vs buying to use

If you’re weighing up a holiday home to buy in Cornwall partly for rental income, ask the park directly about their own letting scheme commission and occupancy figures rather than relying on general estimates — every park’s numbers differ.

New vs pre-owned

Pre-owned lodges for sale in Cornwall are often on already-established pitches with the plot’s landscaping and decking already done, which can be worth a premium over buying a new unit on a bare plot.
