What’s the difference between a Residential Park Home and a Holiday Home?
The difference between a residential park home and a holiday home is the standard that they have been built to comply with.
Most holiday homes are built to EN1647 standards, whereas all residential homes will comply with the British Standard BS3632, which ensures a home can be used for permanent living.
Do I need a specific driving licence to tow a caravan?
There isn’t a specific driving licence needed to tow a caravan but you will need to hold a driving licence for your vehicle. However, you might need to sit an additional category test, depending on the weight of the caravan, to be able to tow your caravan legally.
If you passed your test after 1st January 1997 and have a regular category B license you can drive a vehicle up to 3.5 tonnes or 3,500kg Maximum Authorised Mass towing a trailer of up to 750kg MAM. You can also tow a trailer over 750kg MAM if the combined weight of trailer and vehicle does not exceed 3,500kg. If you want to exceed the limit then you need to obtain a C1+E licence.
