| Looking at static caravans 19:00 - Dec 21 with 4332 views | CountyJim | Mrs and me really fancy one we can't really go abroad as she's now caring for her mum, So we've been looking fairly local Jesus wept!! Looking like a minimum 5k a year in fees alone. Any recommendations in Gower area for example. As I said we can't travel to far perhaps hour to hour and a half |  | | |  |
| Looking at static caravans on 19:07 - Dec 21 with 1946 views | Flashberryjack | I thought about getting a static a while back, but the ground rent is eyewatering, some sites insist that you must renew your caravan after so many years. Decided against in the end. |  |

| Looking at static caravans on 19:10 - Dec 21 with 1940 views | JACKMANANDBOY | Getting more expensive these days. Whiteford Bay is a decent site, owners and family only and 50 week occupancy. You can sometimes get a deal on a short term static where someone has cut their lease short. There are cheaper options further West if you can travel a bit further. |  |

| Looking at static caravans on 19:21 - Dec 21 with 1923 views | majorraglan | There was an article in Walesonline last month where an owner in Kiln Park was looking at a £9k annual fee - an increase of £2k. The full £9k fee equates to paying almost £180 a week which is serious dibs. I’m sure there must be sites out there which are much cheaper than that. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/ |  | |  |

It’s no fun. They shake like Billyo I also short circuited half the site in Royan by overloading the electrics which weren’t adequate Ablutions can be distracting too . No fun enjoying Cornflakes and croissants the sound of faecal bombs getting jettisoned into the septic tank . I’d rather stay in a Badgers sett |  |

| Looking at static caravans on 20:27 - Dec 21 with 1860 views | Whiterockin | Jim think about a large tourer and site it on a 12 month deal. If you dont like a site you can move it. You dont even need to tow it, there are people who will do it for you. It works out a lot cheaper, it doesn't need to be new and you can always sell on if it doesn't suit you. PM me if you like. |  | |  |
| Looking at static caravans on 20:31 - Dec 21 with 1848 views | majorraglan | It may be worth exploring the possibility of buying a big touring caravan and going for a seasonal pitch at a camping site. Could work out much cheaper and if you didn’t like the site you could move your van elsewhere. [Post edited 21 Dec 2022 22:18]

Most of Swansea upsticks in the summer and head down there , tidy site , good club house ( saw Razor Ruddock and an even bigger Nev Southall there a few years back ) |  |

I've found the closer to the sea the more expensive , certainly in the case of Tenby etc . there's nIce and very popular site (caravanners Club ) in Rhayader, a mix of statics and tourers . Narberth north of Tenby has quite a few with good travelling times to the far west coast etc , ideal for us |  |

| Looking at static caravans on 13:27 - Dec 22 with 1604 views | lifelong | Have one in between Solva and St David’s for the past 25 years, within easy walking distance of the Coastal Path, 2 miles from St David’s harbour (Porthclais) where I have a mooring for a small boat. Changed the caravan 7 years ago, ground rent £2.5 K a year, a well kept site with no club house or swimming pool. Very quiet site for most of the season except for school holiday time because the owners have opened up 2 large fields for campers. Wouldn’t want to be anywhere else when the weather is good..just love the area. |  | |  |
