We have an attractive scheme for Holiday Home Owners to enter into a formal agreement with us to sublet, where it produces an income as well as providing quality holiday time for personal use.
Please note that we do not permit private subletting of Holiday Homes at Garreg Goch or on any of our other Coastdale Parks.
If you join the scheme it will offer you the ability to earn income from your Holiday Home whilst still allowing you use of it at other times. In these days of rising costs, it may be of assistance in reducing financial pressure. If you are considering buying a holiday home it may be a way of assisting you to make that big decision to purchase!
The scheme will be available for any owner whose holiday home meets the required standards.To be considered, the unit must be of a standard that meets our minimum grade level. Entry is also subject to availability.
To apply for the holiday home subletting scheme at Garreg Goch, please contact Phillip Key for further information and/or to register your interest in the subletting scheme.
This can be done by emailing Phillip Key at [email protected] or by contacting Garreg Goch Holiday Park directly.
No. To successfully manage our scheme there is a need to have designated dates agreed in a formal contract that will need to be signed before the start of each season.
To try to ensure that the income generated is of a worthwhile level for both parties, the minimum time agreed should consist of; 6 full weeks in high season (or 8 short breaks), 6 full weeks in mid season (or 8 short breaks) and 4 full weeks in low season (or 6 short breaks). This can be subject to some negotiation, depending on individual circumstances.
Details of the season dates and length of short breaks can be obtained from the office.
The company will clean the holiday home after every let, provide and launder the linen, carry out basic and routine maintenance (chargeable) and look after the guests as we would in our own hiring fleet – including check in and out and marketing.
Operating expenses as identified in the agreement are included, but there will be a 5% charge on the total annual income achieved to cover the cost of cleaning and laundry. There will be a ´per booking´ charge of 40.00 for cleaning the hot tub - if applicable.
You will need to provide the full inventory to meet the ‘platinum’ standard and ensure all safety testing is carried out (which is a condition of the licence anyway) and have public liability insurance. You will be responsible for gas and electricity usage and any repairs/breakages.
No. There are no guarantees because it depends on how busy the park is and how many weeks you have made available for letting. However, the dates stipulated have been designed to provide a good opportunity to receive a reasonable level of income.
The commission rate (including VAT) due to the Company will be:
Low, mid and high season 35%.
There is also a 5% cleaning charge and hot tub cleaning charge, as identified above.
Based on one of our parks, the following is a reasonable example of a Platinum unit with no hot tub.
Low season 2 weeks and 4 short breaks
Revenue = £3382.00 – commission = £1183.70 ….. owner £2198.30
Mid season 4 full weeks and 4 short breaks
Revenue = £5438.00 – commission = £1903.30 …. owner £3534.70
High season = 6 full weeks
Revenue = £6300.00 – commission = £2205.00 …. owner £4095.00
Operating expenses as identified in the agreement are included but there will be a 5% charge on the total annual income achieved to cover the cost of cleaning and laundry. There will be a weekly charge of £40 for cleaning the hot tub - if applicable.
These examples are based on full occupancy for the minimum periods identified in the agreement, with VAT levied at 20% (subject to change by the government at any time).
Contact us for further information and to register your interest in the scheme. This can be done by contacting the park or by emailing Phillip Key at [email protected].
Low season 2 weeks and 4 short breaks:
Revenue = £3040.00 – commission = £1064.00 ….. owner £1976.00
Mid season 4 full weeks and 4 short breaks:
Revenue = £5256.00 – commission = £1839.60 …. owner £3416.40
High season = 6 full weeks:
Revenue = £6138.00 – commission = £2148.30 …. owner £3989.70
Operating expenses as identified in the agreement are included but there will be a 5% charge on the total annual income achieved to cover the cost of cleaning and laundry. There will be a weekly charge of £40 for cleaning the hot tub - if applicable.
The above figures are dependant on the number of weeks available for let, but are based on accurate costing figures as at 2024 prices and fees. The letting revenue cannot be guaranteed and we will discount booking tariffs if and when necessary, to optimise the revenue (as we do in our own hiring fleet). The pitch fee example is based on a standard pitch and may vary depending on the grade of the pitch.
Please remember you will need to purchase a separate TV licence for your holiday home.

1. The agreement must be signed and agreed by all owners of the Holiday Home and a representative of the Company, prior to the relevant season.
