When considering a move to a residential park home, understanding the site rules is essential. Before making the move, always ask for a copy of the site rules from the park owner or Quickmove.
What Are Site Rules?
Park site rules are designed to maintain a peaceful, safe, and well-managed community for all residents. Site rules are legally enforceable guidelines set out by the park owner and approved by the local authority.
They apply to all residents living in a residential park home development and are often part of the Written Statement (the agreement between the park owner and resident). These rules ensure consistent standards across the site and help create a harmonious living environment.
Common Site Rules for Residential Parks
Age Restrictions
Many residential parks are aimed at retired or semi-retired residents, often with a minimum age requirement such as 45 or 50+. Let the experts at Quickmove find you a suitable property in one of our popular coastal or rural locations using our park finding service.
Pet Policies
Most parks allow pets under certain conditions, while some may not allow them at all. Common rules include limiting the number and type of pets and ensuring they are kept under control.

Noise Control, Vehicle and Parking Regulations
There may be limits on the number of vehicles per household, restrictions on commercial vehicles, or designated visitor parking areas.
To maintain a peaceful atmosphere, parks often have rules about acceptable noise levels, particularly during evening and night-time hours.
Home Maintenance and Alterations
Residents are usually responsible for keeping their homes and plots tidy. Parks typically provide guidance on how to manage waste and recycling, including where to place bins and collection schedules.
Any structural changes or external decorations may require the park owner’s permission.
Subletting and Guests
Most residential parks prohibit subletting. Rules often outline how long guests can stay and whether they must be registered with the park owner.
