Somerset’s coastline — including popular spots like Burnham-on-Sea and Brean — makes it one of the more affordable and accessible counties for a static caravan purchase, particularly for buyers from the South West and South Wales.
Coastal Somerset vs inland
Most static caravan parks in Somerset sit along the coast, with a genuinely different feel to the county’s inland countryside — decide whether beach access or a quieter rural setting matters more before narrowing your search.
Access and drive time
Somerset’s proximity to the M5 makes it one of the more accessible coastal counties from the Midlands and South Wales, which is part of its appeal for regular weekend use rather than just annual holidays.
What to check before buying
As with any static caravan purchase, confirm the site fees, the park’s season length, and whether the price includes decking, skirting and connection to services, or whether these are extra.
