This article sets out what the company declares on its public website and puts it beside what Green Village offers, so that you can choose by objective, verifiable information.
What Waterside Holiday Group states on its site
According to its ownership page, buyers can choose from a wide range of holiday homes for sale, including static caravans, lodges, new models and pre-owned holiday homes, across three parks in Dorset and one in Cornwall. One example listing is a pre-loved Willerby Mapleton at its Tregoad holiday park, and another is a two-bedroom 35x12ft unit.
The page presents holiday home ownership as designed purely for leisure, family escapes and personal holidays, rather than a primary permanent address. It says site fees cover the right to position the home on the park and that annual pitch fees vary with the choice of its four parks. It also offers a fully managed subletting service to help offset costs, and part-exchange options.
