Situated in the sought-after village of Flockton, between Wakefield and Huddersfield, the park provides an attractive rural setting while remaining conveniently connected to a wide range of local amenities, services, and transport links. Surrounded by open fields and rolling countryside, Manor Park enjoys a tranquil atmosphere that appeals to those seeking a relaxed lifestyle within a friendly and well-maintained community.

Location

Flockton is a well-connected West Yorkshire village located approximately 7 miles west of Wakefield and 8 miles south of Huddersfield. Surrounded by open countryside and farmland, it offers a peaceful rural setting while remaining within easy reach of a wide range of amenities and services.
The village benefits from local conveniences, with more extensive shopping, leisure, and healthcare facilities available in nearby Wakefield, Huddersfield, and Leeds. The area is particularly popular with those seeking a balance between countryside living and accessibility.
Excellent transport links are provided via nearby Junctions 38 and 39 of the M1 motorway, offering convenient access to Leeds, Sheffield, and the wider Yorkshire region, while the M62 is also easily accessible. Rail services from Wakefield, Huddersfield, and Dewsbury provide regular connections to major regional and national destinations.
The surrounding area offers a variety of recreational attractions, including Yorkshire Sculpture Park, the National Coal Mining Museum, and numerous countryside walking and cycling routes. Combining rural charm with strong connectivity, Flockton is a sought-after residential location within West Yorkshire.

Services

All tenants manage and are responsible for paying their own electricity and gas to their chosen energy provider. There are no services contracts for the site owner.

The Opportunity

Manor Park presents an attractive opportunity for an investment-focused owner/operator to acquire a well-established residential park for the over-50s. The site benefits from a strong reputation, an attractive countryside setting, and consistent demand for quality park home living within West Yorkshire.
The park comprises a well-maintained residential community, with homes owned by the individual occupiers and pitches occupied under leasehold agreements. This proven model generates a stable income stream through pitch fees while providing residents with the security and independence associated with park home ownership.
Benefiting from a straightforward and relatively hands-off operating model, the business has no short-term lettings, seasonal fluctuations, or holiday guest management requirements. Consequently, day-to-day operational demands are limited, making the park well suited to both existing operators and investors seeking a secure income-producing asset.
Situated in the sought-after village of Flockton, Manor Park combines a peaceful rural environment with excellent access to Wakefield, Huddersfield, Leeds, and the wider Yorkshire region via the nearby M1 and M62 motorway networks.
There are currently 18 occupied pitches, providing an immediate opportunity to introduce and sell two additional park homes in accordance with the park licence requirements. Once occupied, these pitches will generate additional pitch fee income, offering further upside potential to a new owner.

Staff

There are currently no staff to transfer.
The owner visits the site every couple of months to check over the site and perform minimal maintenance. Each tenant maintains their own surroundings.

Trading Information

The annual rental income for the combined pitches is currently £24,264.
There are also 2 vacant pitches presenting a clear opportunity to position and sell two park homes plus rental fees.
