Our story so far...

We pride ourselves on quality, speed and communication. Below shows the process that we go through to deliver your custom luxury lodge

The Family Farm

The beginnings
of innovation

The story begins when Sam Greaves built a holiday lodge on his family farm in Rosendale, distinguished in both form and function. This stunning creation quickly garnered glowing reviews and high occupancy rates, setting the stage for something bigger.

The Formation of YourRetreats

A serendipitous
partnership

Fate intervened when Sam met fellow cofounder, Andrew Hardman. Recognising the synergy between their skills, the duo launched YourRetreats, embarking on an ambitious journey to revolutionise the holiday park business.

Building Beyond the Ordinary

The quest
for perfection

Unsatisfied with the offerings from existing manufacturers, Sam and Andrew decided to evolve Sam’s original designs. Their goal was clear: to set a new standard of excellence in lodge construction.

A Pivotal Shift

From initial success 
to outside interest

In February 2023, the tide turned. With mounting interest from fellow holiday park owners, Sam and Andrew decided to pivot towards manufacturing. Their mission? To tackle industry challenges head-on and redefine the lodge-buying experience.

First Round of Funding

Securing the future

September 2023 marked a milestone as YourRetreats secured its first round of funding. This investment was more than financial; it was a vote of confidence in our innovative manufacturing processes and a commitment to delivering superior residential park homes and holiday lodges for years to come.

A New Home for YourRetreats

Expansion and evolution

December 2023 was a time of growth and change. We moved to a new 60,000 square foot facility in Accrington, a leap forward in scaling our operations. This move represents our dedication to investing in the people and processes that will cement YourRetreats as an industry leader. Click here to learn more about our factory.
