Do the sums, including depreciation and site fees, then compare the annual cost with what value you are getting out of it for your own holidays. You may or may not be quids in - probably not - but an investment it ain’t.
Bricks and mortar have to be the best investment. Depending on your mortgage costs, you might cover all your outgoings with, say, six months of rentals per year, i.e. interest, council tax, insurance, cleaning, laundry, repairs, etc. That leaves plenty of weeks/weekends for your family to enjoy it, effectively free of charge. And here’s the thing: the capital appreciation is all yours. Over a number of years it could be a brilliant investment.
