Find a Residential Park Home Where Your Pet Is Welcome
For many people, whether a park accepts pets is one of the first questions they ask.
A dog or cat may have been part of your family for many years, so moving somewhere that welcomes them is essential. Many EKOS parks allow well-behaved dogs and cats, usually up to a maximum of two pets per home.
Pet policies can vary between locations, so the EKOS team will confirm the current rules for your preferred park before you reserve a home.
Our team can help you understand:
- Whether dogs and cats are accepted at the park
- How many pets are permitted
- Any relevant park rules
- The outdoor space available with your chosen home
- Nearby walking routes and open spaces
- Whether a particular plot would suit your pet
This gives you the reassurance of knowing that the park, home and location are right for every member of your household.

Why Park Home Living Can Work Well for Pet Owners
A residential park home can offer several practical advantages for people moving with a dog or cat.
01
Single-Storey Living
Residential park homes are generally arranged across one level, meaning there are no stairs to navigate throughout the home.
This can make everyday movement more convenient for owners and may also be easier for older pets who prefer to stay on one floor.
02
Your Own Outdoor Space
Depending on the park, plot and home selected, you may have your own garden, decking or another manageable outdoor area.
If you're moving with a pet, consider whether you need the space to be enclosed and speak to the EKOS team about permitted boundaries, fencing or other changes.
03
Countryside & Coastal Locations
Many EKOS parks are located close to countryside, beaches, canal paths and local walking routes.
This can make it easier to enjoy time outdoors with your dog without necessarily travelling far from home. Always check the accessibility, terrain and local rules for the walks you plan to use.
04
A Quieter Residential Setting
EKOS parks are designed around peaceful residential living, providing an alternative to busy town-centre environments.
For many pet owners, a calmer setting with less traffic and more open space can be an important consideration when choosing a new home.
05
A More Manageable Property
Moving to a modern park home can mean less general property maintenance compared with looking after a larger traditional house.
With less time spent maintaining your home, you may have more time for walks, hobbies, travel and enjoying everyday life with your pet.
Choosing the Right Park and Plot for You and Your Pet
Finding a pet-friendly park is only the beginning. You should also consider whether the individual location and plot are suitable for your needs.
Before deciding, think about:
- The type and size of pet you have
- The number of pets moving with you
- Access to nearby walking routes
- Traffic around the park entrance
- The size and layout of the plot
- Whether the garden is currently enclosed
- The distance to a local veterinary practice
- Your pet’s age and mobility
- The location of doors and outdoor access
- Space for food, equipment, beds and storage
A visit is the best way to assess the location properly. You can walk around the park, look at the available plots and discuss any pet-related requirements with the on-site team.
Modern Park Homes Designed Around Your Lifestyle
Choosing a residential park home does not mean accepting a standard layout that does not suit the way you live.
EKOS offers a choice of one, two and three-bedroom park homes, with different designs and customisation options available depending on the home manufacturer and park.
When planning a home around life with a pet, you may wish to discuss:
- Practical and durable flooring
- Easy-clean entrance areas
- Storage for leads, coats and pet supplies
- Direct access to a garden or decking
- A utility or boot-room-style area
- Space for pet beds or crates
- Secure outdoor boundaries
- Washable interior finishes
Available options vary, but discussing your needs early can help you select a home and layout that work for you.
Permanent, Year-Round Park Home Living with Pets
EKOS residential park homes are designed for permanent living, rather than short holiday stays.
This distinction matters when you are searching for pet-friendly residential park homes. Some online results may relate to holiday caravans, touring sites or short-term rental accommodation rather than somewhere you can make your main home.
A residential park home provides:
- A permanent home address
- Comfortable year-round accommodation
- Your own private living space
- A managed residential environment
- Access to a settled community
- A more manageable alternative to a traditional house
Always check the licence and occupancy conditions of a park before committing to a purchase.
Understanding the Park Rules for Pets
Pet-friendly does not mean that there are no rules.
Residential park rules are intended to help protect residents, pets, wildlife and the wider community. Requirements may vary, but owners are normally expected to keep pets under proper control and avoid causing disturbance to neighbours.
Before moving, ask for the current written park rules and check:
- Which types of pets are permitted
- The maximum number allowed
- Whether approval is needed
- Where dogs should be kept on a lead
- How outdoor areas may be enclosed
- Waste disposal expectations
- Noise and nuisance provisions
- Whether any specific restrictions apply
Do not rely solely on a general statement that pets are welcome. Confirm that your particular pet is accepted before signing an agreement or making a financial commitment.
Are All EKOS Parks Pet-Friendly?
No. Pet policies differ between EKOS locations.
Many parks accept up to two well-behaved dogs or cats, but Harvey’s Nurseries in Berkshire is currently a pet-free park.
If you are unsure which locations are suitable, tell our team about your pets when you enquire. We can help you narrow down the appropriate parks before you arrange a visit.
Make Your Move Easier
Once you have found the right pet-friendly park and home, EKOS can also help you consider how to manage the sale of your existing property.
Our moving options include:
Part Exchange
With EKOS Part Exchange, you may be able to sell your existing property directly as part of your park home purchase.
This can reduce the uncertainty of waiting for a buyer and help create a clearer route towards your new home.
Managed Move
With Managed Move, EKOS can help coordinate the sale of your existing property through the open market.
This may suit buyers who want support with the process while retaining a conventional property sale.
Eligibility, valuations and terms apply. Speak to the EKOS team to understand which option may be suitable for your circumstances.
