For many people, their home is their happy place. It’s a sanctuary where they can relax and unwind after a long day. It’s a place to entertain friends and make memories with family. So, what exactly makes a home feel like home? Is it the location? The people? The features and décor? Let’s explore some of the factors that make buying an off site lodge like buying a real home from home.
Lodges – what factors make them like a home from home?
People: Of course, one of the main things that can make a house feel like home is the people who live there. When you live with someone— whether it’s your spouse, your kids, or your pet— you naturally start to develop a sense of connection to the space. It becomes less about the actual physical structure of the house and more about the relationships that you have within it. If, for example, you’re thinking of buying a used lodge off site as accommodation on your private land for a friend or family member, or for your park for paying guests, you’ll be providing them with the closest thing to very comfortable bricks and mortar home. Although secondhand lodges such as twin lodges are portable structures, their comfortable home from home features mean that your family member or friend will feel as though they are in solid bricks and mortar, modern home.
Décor: Another big factor in making a house feel like a home is how you choose to decorate it. After all, décor is one of the main ways that we express our personality and style. By adding interior design touches, we turn our houses into homes that reflect who we are and provide a really pleasant environment. Most lodges for sale off site were manufactured as a particular model which had already been given its own design theme. Lodge manufacturers take great care in matching the interiors and giving buyers of lodges a modern, tasteful interior that has a touch of luxury. When you think about it, off site lodges are designed primarily for a leisure market where customers expect a great looking and comfortable interior with all mod cons and home comforts. Since many used lodges for sale off site have had previous use on a holiday park, its often the case that the owners would only have been in the lodge for a relatively small part of the whole year, and would have been careful to look after their holiday home. This means that many of the off site lodges you may look at are likely to still be in good condition and to feel very much like a home from home.
Location: For some people, the location of their home is just as important as the actual structure itself. If you’re lucky enough to live in a place with beautiful views or close to loved ones, that can definitely add to the feeling of “home.” Buying a new or used lodge off site means that it is transported to your chosen location. This means you’re able to site a comfortable lodge, already with electrics, plumbing, and heating fitted, in your chosen place with the view you want. It’s a lot quicker, cheaper, and less trouble than trying to build structure to offer similar home from home features.

Lodges provide a ready made, ready to transport, fast to site and set up accommodation option that already have most of the home from home features and benefits.
