frequently asked questions
You are open for 11 months of the year, are we able to stay in the home continuously for those months?
You can come and go as often as you like over the 11 months but your lodge can’t be your main residence. We will check prior to purchase, and annually thereafter, that you have a legitimate permanent home address.
Are we restricted to when we can arrive on park to use our holiday home; do we need to report in on arrival?
As an owner you can come and go whenever you like, there is no need to report on arrival.
Can we invite family and friends to our holiday home at Silverhill Woodland Retreats?
Of course, a holiday home is the perfect way to bring the family together. Silverhill Woodland Retreats has something for everyone and we would love you to invite friends and family to spend time with us.
Are there options for the number of bedrooms in the holiday homes at Silverhill Woodland Retreats?
Yes, there are options for two and three bedrooms. We do find that two bedrooms are more popular. Some of the lodges have other options especially if you are buying off plan.
