Lodge Living – Why More People Are Choosing Luxury Lodge Homes

In the UK, luxury lodge living is becoming increasingly popular — and not just as a holiday option. Many people are now choosing to downsize, relocate, or even retire into lodge homes, attracted by their style, comfort, and cost-effectiveness.

At the Park Home and Holiday Park Association (PHHPA), we’ve seen a sharp rise in demand for high-quality lodge listings across the country. Here’s why lodge living is winning hearts — and how you can make the most of it.

1. Modern Lodge Design Meets Comfort

Gone are the days when a lodge meant basic accommodation. Today’s lodge homes feature:

Open-plan living spaces
Fully fitted kitchens with modern appliances
High-spec bathrooms and en-suite options
Energy-efficient heating and insulation

Manufacturers like Omar, Prestige, and Pathfinder have elevated lodge living to rival traditional brick-built homes.

2. Location, Location, Location

Lodges are often found in picturesque locations — from coastal retreats in Cornwall to peaceful countryside parks in Yorkshire. Many are situated on residential parks with strong community vibes or holiday resorts with fantastic leisure facilities.

3. A Cost-Effective Lifestyle

With house prices at record highs, lodges offer an affordable alternative. You can often get more space, better surroundings, and lower running costs compared to a conventional home.

4. Flexibility for Owners

Many lodges can be used as permanent residences or as holiday homes you rent out when not in use — providing an additional income stream.

5. Selling Your Lodge

When it’s time to sell, listing on PHHPA ensures you’re seen by a nationwide audience actively searching for lodges. Include high-quality images, clear descriptions, and details about your park and surroundings.
