David Frost, director of the Grantley Group, said: ‘There is quite a buoyant market for places like this at the moment.
‘We see clients moving to the UK maybe with families and animals are often looking for properties of this ilk.
‘We’ve rented this particular estate for several years and actually sold it fairly recently.
‘The buyer is looking to do a bit of work to it and it just made sense to have it making a bit of money in the meantime.
‘We’d expect any client to be of a fairly affluent background as running costs of a place like that don’t come cheap.’
Anyone who is interested in renting the site should contact the Grantley Group directly.
