Change of Name

The owner of the park,having failed to offer a sensible price for the website, has launched one of his own and changed the name of the park to fit with the website address.Under the new name the website has to be admired for its marketing expertise but of course fails to mention any adverse factors.For instance the beautiful view of the caravan overlooking the water has an empty patch of concrete beside it.The unit that was there was destroyed by the flood of 20 July 2007.The pitch is still empty because the occupants refused to return,although the insurance payment was received.This is because they had been threatened with eviction by the camp busybody for the terrible crime of speaking to someone who was not a friend of hers.The occupants were so enraged by this that they phoned the park owner to ask "how dare that woman speak to us like that ?".The busybody is still there but she does not have as many victims left to bully since people started voting with their feet.The ones that are left are still scared of her evil influence and will not tell her what they really feel.Even though she has been relieved of all responsibilities,by the new park owner,people cannot forget that she has managed to force numerous other occupants to leave just because they would not bow to her imagined authority.
There are apparently two used caravans for sale on the park.This is very unusual because they have been empty since last year.They are of course empty because the owners do not want to return.Additionally there are seven empty pitches as well awaiting caravans but nothing will appear unless some unsuspecting prospect commits to signing away his rights to the park owner.
The adoption of a new name is not going to change the main problems of the park which are;1) certainty of further flooding
2)lack of rights of caravan purchasers (you could buy this week and be evicted next week)
3) bullying by the camp busybody.
4) rapid depreciation in value
5) short life of caravans (no sales after 10 years old and removal at your cost after 15 years)
6) ban on bequeathing your van in your will
7) dificulty of reselling to another gullible person in the face of the above obstacles.
You are strongly advised to look very carefully before you decide to buy anywhere but here in particular.

No Longer Registered

Binton Bridges Caravan Park was a member of the British Holiday & Home Parks Association (BHHPA) which promotes caravan parks nationally. It is no longer registered as a member.
This organisation did offer some assistance to holidaymakers because it specified certain minimum standards to be adhered to by it's member parks.Having said that it had no effect on the previous site owners who just ignored them and did whatever they wanted. As far as I can ascertain there was no censure applied as a consequence.
However the BHHPA did operate a postal concilliation scheme which could be used by holidaymakers and park owners in dispute and the loss of this facility could have a bearing on future events at this park.
Practically it will probably have no effect,because the organisation was primarily looking after the interests of park owners,and if you are unfortunate in having a contract with an unscrupulous person then you are basically up a creek without a paddle.
