Understanding your park home pitch agreement
Ending the agreement
When you can end the agreement
You have the legal right (under the implied terms) to end the pitch agreement by giving 4 weeks’ written notice. If you do, you also have the right to recover any upfront payments made under the agreement for the period from the agreement end date.
When the site owner can end your agreement
The site owner can only end the agreement if:
- the park home is no longer your only or main home
- the condition of the home harms the site
- you have broken the agreement, such as not paying your pitch fees
The site owner should usually give you a chance to put things right first before they can start the process of ending the agreement.
Disputes
Disputes about ending an agreement are usually resolved by going to court. The exception is if your agreement states that such disputes can be dealt with using arbitration. This means the issue would be dealt with by a tribunal. This can be less expensive than going to court. Look for an “arbitration clause” in your agreement.

Eviction
Only a court can order your eviction and there is a strict legal process a site owner must follow. It is illegal for a site owner to try to evict you without permission from a court.
Important
Always get urgent legal advice if you are at risk of being evicted.
You can get free eviction advice and support from organisations like Citizens Advice or Shelter. You can also get free legal help from the Housing Loss Prevention Advice Service if you have received a written notice that someone is seeking possession of your home.
