Willerby has announced two new models for 2024 saying they will “fill an important gap in the park home and lodge markets”.
Willerby’s New Forest park home was unveiled at the Scottish Caravan, Motorhome and Holiday Home Show at Glasgow’s SEC this month.
Its design and key features have been influenced by a major survey exploring what matters most to people buying a residential park home.
Value for money, ease of maintenance and style were among the top requirements, with owners keen to avoid expensive refurbishment work without sacrificing on quality, style and comfort.
The Willerby New Forest park home features two bedrooms, a spacious living room, a separate kitchen/dining space, and an ensuite bathroom to the master bedroom and has a clean, classic interior design.
It’s also the first Willerby residential park home to be built to the new BS 3632 (2023) British Standard, which sets out updated regulations for the manufacture of park homes for use as permanent homes.
Willerby says the New Forest is cheaper to run and maintain than traditional or second-hand park homes, as building to the new BS 3632 (2023) standard sees superior thermal efficiency, reducing the energy consumption and cost for the owner. A new high-grade steel-coated roof provides strength and weather protection, and the render effect cladding is easy to maintain and clean.
Released at an entry-level price point, the Willerby New Forest is available in two different sizes – 36ft x 20ft and 40ft x 20ft.
Willerby Product Manager James Burling said after detailed feedback from owners they’d focused on three key areas with the New Forest – value for money, build quality and desirability.
“The New Forest is competitively priced to give customers an alternative to a second-hand park home,” said James. “It offers all of the benefits of owning a brand new residential park home at a more affordable price, saving the cost, time, and hassle of refurbishing and maintaining an older home.”
The Scottish Show also saw Willerby launch the special edition Boston – a spacious entry-level holiday lodge.
The Willerby Boston comes as either a two or three-bedroomed lodge, both at 40ft x 20ft. The layout features improvements to open up new space in the kitchen and the bedroom dressing areas.
Balancing practicality with a modern style, the Willerby Boston’s colour scheme is on trend, with blush pink and graphite accents adding visual interest to a palette of khaki, grey and dark oak.
Willerby has designed both its new models to be low maintenance, with contemporary build materials delivering a consistently high-quality finish.
Willerby Sales Director Keith Holland said the two new entry-level models brought a desirable lifestyle choice to more people, offering a superior alternative to second-hand units.
“The New Forest and Boston are stylishly designed, offering modern living spaces to which owners can add their own touches,” said Keith. “We’re delighted to have launched two new models which will fill important gaps in the market, enabling even more people to realise their dream of owning a new park home or lodge and enjoy the fantastic lifestyle this offers.”
