Living the dream in luxury

For many people who go on holiday, it is the view, the accommodation and the on-site facilities that attract them to a destination – at Seaton Estate in Arbroath you have all this and more

With the rise in popularity of Scottish staycations, Seaton Estate is the perfect choice for those holidaymakers who crave a summer escape, without the hassle of an international flight and huge queues at passport control.

If you have always dreamed of owning your own holiday home, then you and your family could be one step closer to making this happen because there is an Open Weekend at Crown Park’s

Seaton Estate over the May Bank Holiday Weekend, from Friday 29 April to Monday 2 May.

And, it is the ideal time to make this investment as there will be a 20% discount (and FREE TV) for those who buy a holiday home or static caravan during the four-day celebration.

The estate’s two new fivestar development of holiday homes and residential park homes have to be seen to be believed. So, the park’s operations manager Krystian Mlynarski and his sales manager Craig Robertson invite those who are considering buying a holiday lodge or residential park home along to discover the benefits of holiday park life and all that goes with it.

Krystian said: “We want to give people a taste of the lifestyle on offer here at Seaton Estate, so we hold a big open event each year to let people experience it for themselves.”

Craig added: “We have recently spent £2million on refurbishing the holiday park and Country Club, so we would also like to invite people to come and see the changes. Our two new developments are located in a private cul-de-sac with more plot space than any other holiday park home: they also boast a driveway, Victorian lighting and panoramic views.”

Spread across 80 acres, Seaton Estate sits on a hillside overlooking the fishing town of Arbroath, and has picturesque views across the bay. The holiday park itself is well-known, for it was established 40 years ago, before being taken over by Crown Park in 2007.

Since then Crown Park has invested heavily in revamping the park’s permanent and temporary accommodation and the on-site facilities which now includes Seaton Estate Country Club and its trio of entertainment venues: a cocktail bar, a show bar and an Irish bar. You are guaranteed a lively night, especially on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays when there is live entertainment.

What’s also special about the Country Club is that it is open to all, whether you are staying at the holiday park or elsewhere during your time in Arbroath.

Also you can enjoy dining at the newly-refurbished on-site restaurant, The Kilt & Tartan, which has recently appointed a new chef from Carnoustie Golf Hotel and Spa.

Unlike many holiday parks, Seaton Estate has its own spa, so you can book a relaxing massage, facial or pedicure during your time here.

There are many benefits of investing in a holiday home (which starts at just £19,995 for a pre-owned and £29,995 for a brand new one) at Seaton Estate, explained Craig.

“Our static caravans mean you are buying your own holiday home within Scotland, which is easy to get to, and you and your friends and family can come and go as you wish, without the hassle of going abroad. Plus, the cost of living here is more affordable.”

Interestingly, Seaton Estate is an owners-only park, so you won’t need to worry about your neighbours letting out the next-door caravan. Besides the fantastic facilities and high quality of homes, it is also the community feel that appeals to people who come to Seaton Estate to spend a holiday, or retirement.

Craig added: “This is why people want to live here, permanently. There is a separate residential park for those who relocate here to one of our luxury park homes, perhaps after downsizing and selling their main property. They buy something like this because it has a low maintenance way of living and you instantly become part of the community. The park homes also have a BS3632 residential spec and come with a ‘written statement’ giving you the right to live here permanently.”

*At Seaton Estate Open Weekend, which runs from Friday 29 April to Monday 2 May, there will be up to 20% off holiday homes and residential park homes (saving up to £40,000 on some plots), and all those who purchase will also be gifted a FREE smart TV.
