Freqently Asked Questions...

Holiday home ownership is an investment in your family's leisure time. Here are some facts to help you make the right decision, and choose Flusco Wood as your holiday location.

Can I live permanently in my lodge?
You may only use your lodge as a holiday home and you must have a permanent address elsewhere in the UK. Unlike many parks, at Flusco Wood you may use your lodge all year round and many of our owners regularly stay at Christmas and New Year.

Can I let my lodge?
To provide a peaceful and relaxing environment Flusco Wood has had a policy from the outset not to permit sub letting. Of course the lodge can be used by family and friends at any time.

What else will I need to consider when owning my lodge?
Things to consider include the site maintenance charge, rates, metered electric and metered or bottled gas. More information on these items can be given on park when you visit us.

Do you offer any Finance Options?
Our sales team would be happy to discuss a variety of ways to source finance for your lodge purchase, or perhaps you may consider a fractional purchase scheme with family or friends taking a share in the investment.

Can I sell my lodge?
You may sell your lodge at anytime, subject to the conditions of your licence. The new owner will be given a new licence for the balance of years left on your existing licence.

Can I leave my lodge in my will or gift it?
Yes and the new owner will be given a new licence for the balance of years outstanding on your license with all the same benefits.

Who looks after my lodge when I am not there?
We have a resident park manager who not only keeps an eye on things but also maintains the grounds and can help you and your guests with any aspect related to your stay at Flusco Wood.

I have heard lodges are depreciating assets, is this true?
At Flusco Wood there have been a number of re-sales of pre owned lodges since the first was sited here in 2001. None of these has sold for less than the original purchase price. Don't forget even freehold bricks and mortar has fallen in value in recent times so we believe a Flusco Wood lodge will always be a good investment.

What Insurance Cover do I need?
Your holiday home (and its contents) must be appropriately insured at all times. Flusco Wood can introduce you to our broker who will provide a competitive quotation.

Will I have to pay Council Tax?
No, but there is a nominal Rates charge to pay to park as a contribution to our local authority charges for local services provided to Flusco Wood.

What is there to do when I am there?
Not only will you enjoy your own home from home, with spectacular views of the Lake District Fells but you are on the very doorstep of the premier summer and winter holiday destination in the land.

There are a myriad of indoor and outdoor attractions suitable for all ages and of course fell walking, cycling and all those other activities the Lake District is famous for.
