The protections under the Mobile Homes Act 1983 apply to park home owners living on caravan sites with planning permission for residential use.

The protections do not extend to owners of caravans on holiday caravan sites, because the planning permission granted permits the use of those sites for holiday and recreational purposes only.

Holiday caravan owners have protections under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
