Let’s explore how to choose the best caravan for you.
Your Ultimate Guide to Caravan Sales in Scotland
When looking for a caravan, it’s important to think about how you plan to use it. Will it be a weekend getaway, a summer retreat, or a year-round holiday home? Knowing this helps narrow down your options.
Consider Your Budget
Caravans come in a wide price range. At Speedy Caravan Sales, we have models starting from as little as £9,995. This makes holiday home ownership affordable for many families. Remember to factor in additional costs like site fees, insurance, and maintenance.
Size and Layout
Think about how many people will stay in the caravan. If you have a large family or often host guests, a bigger caravan with multiple bedrooms is ideal. For couples or small families, a compact model might be perfect.
Location and Park Facilities
Our parks on the west coast of Scotland offer a choice between woodland and coastal settings. Each park has its own unique charm and facilities such as swimming pools, play areas, and social clubs. Choosing a park that fits your lifestyle enhances your holiday experience.

What is the Age Limit Rule? We Do Not Have An Age Limit Rule On Our Parks!
Understanding the 15 age limit rule is crucial when buying a static caravan. This rule states that a caravan can only be sited on a park for up to a certain amount of time before it must be removed or replaced. This ensures that parks maintain high standards and that caravans remain safe and modern.
When purchasing a caravan, check its age and how long it has been on the site. Newer caravans or brand new lodges offer longer usage periods and better features. At Speedy Caravan Sales, we provide brand new lodges at affordable prices, beating competitors on value.
Knowing this rule helps you avoid unexpected costs or the need to move your caravan sooner than expected.

Why Choose a Pet-Friendly Caravan Park?
If you have pets, finding a pet-friendly park is a top priority. Our owners-only parks welcome pets, creating a friendly and inclusive community. This means your furry friends can enjoy the holiday home just as much as you do.
Pet-friendly parks often have walking trails, open spaces, and nearby beaches, perfect for daily exercise and fun. Being part of an owners’ community also means you can share tips and experiences with fellow pet lovers.
Choosing a pet-friendly park adds value to your holiday home and ensures everyone in the family feels at home.
