The Botswana demonstrates ingenious use of materials - not unusual for Pathfinder Homes, and we love some of the innovative touches, such as the storage/dressing area in the master bedroom. Yes, this is a marmite lodge - you will probably either love it or hate it, but without manufacturers like this pushing on the boundaries of design and innovation our sector would be much worse off. Bravo Pathfinder, we love it!

Hawthorne Lodges were another manufacturer to debut at the 2022 World of Park & Leisure Homes Show, but already with a great track record of delivery for parks and park groups. Their range of short stay accommodation units is diverse and inspiring, and on the lodge side their bespoke capability will allow the buyer the benefit of input to make their ranges their own. The Blackthorne seen here is a luxury lodge with a few key selling points; The extensive glazing to the front offering virtually panoramic views, the bright, light and well equipped kitchen, a utility room, well sized twin bedded room and master suite with walk-through dressing and storage area and shower room. A solid show debut.

Freshly launched at Stoneleigh's World of Park & Leisure Homes, the Manor Brampton was a sleek model to show, oozing class and sophistication. Manor Park Homes are well-known for their big-hitting models built to a larger footprint, so it was refreshing to see them demonstrate their experience and competency in a size likely to work for many parks. The Brampton epitomises the saying 'Less is more' and shows how that's best done, choosing classic touches and quality over quantity. The result is a mode that feels timeless, classy and good value for money.
