Holiday Park Accommodation

WHEN THE STAY BECOMES THE STORY

Posted on February 13, 2026

THE ORRYN LODGE from Pinelog transforms the park landscape with a striking roofline and an inviting, experience-led design. With thoughtful design inside and out, The Orryn encourages guests to relax, socialise and create lasting memories in every season.

The increasing importance of experiential holiday park accommodation…

Holiday park accommodation is no longer a functional backdrop to a break away. It now shapes how guests relax, socialise and remember their stay. Comfort, design quality and usable space increasingly influence booking decisions and revenue.

The Orryn, the latest lodge design from Pinelog, has been developed in direct response to guest demand for memorable, experience-led accommodation. Rather than focusing solely on the internal layout, the design treats the lodge as a complete living environment, inside and out.

A defining feature is its projecting roofline. Architecturally, it creates a strong visual identity on park. Practically, it transforms external decking into a sheltered, year-round living and entertaining space. The extended roof projection provides protection for hot tubs, seating and dining areas, and can even accommodate a sauna, allowing operators to add premium features that remain usable in all seasons.

Like all lodges in the Pinelog range, The Orryn benefits from a fully bespoke approach. Layouts can be adapted to suit different guest profiles and park strategies, with options including integrated saunas, games rooms, accessibility features and pet-friendly additions.

These reflect growing demand for wellness, entertainment and multi-generational stays, while helping parks differentiate their offer and increase per-stay revenue. As experiential travel continues to shape the holiday park sector, Pinelog’s bespoke offering continues to lead the way in helping park operators move their accommodation into a central part of the guest experience, delivering stronger appeal and long-term commercial value.

10 EXPERT TIPS FOR DESIGNING A LUXURY LODGE

Posted on July 31, 2025

With nearly four decades of experience, timber lodge specialists Pinelog Ltd have helped shape some of the UK’s most stylish and successful holiday park accommodation. Their expert design team has shared ten essential tips for creating a luxury lodge that delivers comfort, visual appeal and long-term guest satisfaction.

1. KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE
Design decisions should start with a clear understanding of your target market. One-bedroom retreats with hot tubs or saunas suit couples, while families seek larger lodges with open-plan layouts. Pet-friendly additions like boot rooms and dog showers are increasingly in demand.

2. PRIORITISE SUSTAINABLY
Guests are more eco-conscious than ever. Using responsibly sourced timber, adding renewable energy systems and prioritising insulation all reduce environmental impact and operational costs.

3. HEAT EFFICIENCY
To extend the rental season, modern heating solutions like panel heaters or wood burners should be paired with top-grade insulation.

4. MAXIMISE NATURAL VIEWS
Lodges should feel connected to their setting. Floor-to-ceiling windows and well-placed glazing bring in light and scenery, enhancing guest wellbeing.

5. DESIGN SMART LAYOUTS
A flowing kitchen-dining-lounge “triangle” supports social interaction and suits a wide variety of users, from couples to multigenerational families.

6. INVEST IN BEDROOM COMFORT
Spacious bedrooms with ample storage are a must, even in compact designs. Guests staying longer appreciate thoughtful design.

7. MAKE BATHROOMS BRIGHT
Smart storage, walk-in showers and features like skylights help small bathrooms feel luxurious and practical.

8. HIGH-QUALITY INTERIORS
Durable and attractive materials extend the lifespan of your lodge. High-spec finishes improve resale value and require less maintenance.

9. USE LOW-MAINTENANCE EXTERIORS
Pinelog - bedrooms with storage and pace Natural materials such as timber, ceramics and metal age well and maintain kerb appeal over time with minimal upkeep.

10. DESIGN FOR PURPOSE
Lodges for personal use can reflect individual taste, while rental lodges benefit from neutral palettes, robust finishes and ease of maintenance. Always design with the end-user in mind. Pinelog’s designs are renowned for their timeless style, comfort and robust performance.

Whether you’re looking to add new accommodation or start a holiday park from scratch, their expert guidance ensures every lodge delivers long-term value and guest satisfaction.
