| Mobile homes have evolved from the static caravans British
families once piled into at Scarborough. Modern designs and materials used by British
manufacturers such as Willerby, BK Bluebird and ABI have massively increased the life
expectancy of mobile homes, with spacious interiors that make you feel as though you’re
stepping into a villa.
Mobile homes also offer advantages such as extremely low maintenance needs and on-site
security as standard. The initial transaction can take place in sterling in the UK, or
if you prefer, Euros, so you don’t need to consider fluctuating currency rates, plus
there are no legal fees involved. Once you’ve chosen the model that meets your needs,
Hotspotz (www.hotspotz.co.uk) have a number of sites along Spain’s Mediterranean coast,
plus Portugal, France, Tenerife and Sardinia to choose from. Location types vary from
secluded meadows to those with everything on site, from supermarkets to swimming pools.
Hotspotz take care of everything, from delivery and installation to final checks.
As the manufacturers are constantly updating their designs, some specifications and
prices may change, check prices and details are current. It’s also worth remembering
that you’ll need around £6,000 for extras like air conditioning, decking and landscaped
gardens, plus site fees, but even with these extras, a modern high-quality mobile home
gives you the chance to move to Spain for a fraction of the cost of buying a villa,
without economising on style.
The new generation of mobile homes offers facilities to rival luxury apartments
without the equivalent price tag. This way, moving to Europe’s beautiful southerly
regions is a highly affordable option. |
