RIVERSIDE CARAVAN PARK
WAINFLEET
LINCOLNSHIRE PE24 4ND
Riverside Caravan Park occupies an attractive location off Wainfleet Bank, some one mile from the town of Wainfleet All Saints and close to the road bridge over the River Steeping. The ancient Market Town of Wainfleet All Saints, home to Bateman’s Brewery, offers a comprehensive range of local amenities and is approximately one mile to the east, whilst the park itself is located some 6 miles south of Skegness and 15 miles north east of Boston. The coastal resorts of East Lindsey District stretch for a distance of approximately 15 miles, from Skegness in the south to Mablethorpe in the north and are amongst the most popular destinations for retirement and caravan holidays on the east coast of England.
An attractive detached country cottage of brick construction under a pan-tiled roof, the owners’ house is capable of providing 3 / 4 bedroomed accommodation. The property maintains its original charm but will require comprehensive modernisation and improvement to bring it up to modern day standards.
Planning permission (reference number 281/66) dated 23 May 1966, permits the use of land as a caravan site at Old Riverbank, Wainfleet St Mary, OS Sheet 91.8, Field No. 309. This planning permission provides that the caravans shall not be occupied at any time for human habitation during the period from 10th October in any one year until 15 March in the following year and during such period may be used solely for the storage of personal effects and camping equipment. A Site Licence dated 12 June 1967 confirms that the property has the benefit of planning permission reference number 281/66 permitting the use of the land as a caravan site. The remaining area of land, forming Field No. 310 has the benefit of a Certificate of Lawful Use or Development dated 18 December 2015. The Certificate of Lawful Use confirms that this area of land may be used as a caravan site.
The Certificate of Lawful Use does not contain any restriction as to the type of caravan that may be sited which would indicate that any form of caravan (including caravans that might be occupied on a residential basis) may be sited over this area of land provided they comply with the definition of a caravan as contained within the Caravan Sites and Control and Development Act 1960 (as amended) and standard Site Licence conditions. The original planning consent that relates to the remaining area of land does not specify the type of caravan that may be sited, hence permitting any form of caravan to be accommodated however it does contain a restricted season.
The business has only traded as a “hobby” in recent years prior to the demise of its long term owners. There are no trading accounts available, though the location and planning consent is such that a purchaser can quickly re-establish the touring caravan site and may choose to further develop the property to accommodate static or residential caravans in the future in line with the planning consent.
