Founded on craftsmanship, we have been building British park homes for over 60 years.
A legacy of British park home building
From a small, hands-on workshop to a trusted maker of park homes and lodges.
Made for lasting living
Since 1963, our longevity has been built on a clear understanding of how people want to live. By listening closely to our customers, we’ve continually refined our homes to reflect changing lifestyles, expectations and standards.
This ability to evolve — in both design and manufacturing — has allowed us to remain relevant for over six decades. From layout and specification to build methods and compliance, our homes are shaped by experience, innovation and a commitment to considered design and continuous improvement.
Customer understanding has shaped our homes from the very beginning.
Across generations, families have played a lasting role in our workforce, culture and the care behind every home we build.
Our homes have continually evolved to reflect changing lifestyles, standards and customer needs.
