Always wondered what people do when they have to get out for 2 months a year due to not paying council tax.
Obviously not for the full time sites

I thought if you had a small break from living there it got round the tax. Bugger.I thought that but I'm afraid not. If it's a full time residential park home you have to pay council tax.
OP why does it have to be a caravan type home. If you live Alty way your house must be worth a decent amount. Why not buy a small house somewhere quiet, Welsh villages (away from the coast to avoid scousers !) or the North East, stunningly beautiful and a hell of a lot cheaper.
That is something I am considering also. I don't drive so it has to be near decent transport links to get to the match etcetera if we're ever allowed back. This pandemic has altered a lot of people's views too. In the event of restricted travel it would be nice to be near the coast to go for decent walks.
A few years ago my parents had a caravan on a small private site just outside Blackpool, it was about 15 minutes on a bus. Absolutely nothing on the site but next door was Newton Hall with a great social club you could join so it was the best of both worlds I guess. That could be an option as a decent caravan could be picked up much cheaper and lived in ,6-8 months if I wanted and not too far back to Manchester.

A grand for the bit 'o wood, Arthur, 'n £149k for the view!Always fancied firing the old mortal coil in one having been born in a prefab, remember them being about 30 grand at one time, not long after they threw some up at Rossmere 150 grand, ffs they're a bit of timber.

A guy I worked with on the ships lived in one and he went on holiday to Cyprus when he had to be off the site.
