It was getting towards early evening when PH&HC arrived at Red Rose’s stand at the recent Lawns Show, in Cottingham, near Hull.

The day was drawing to a close and we weren’t expecting an abundance of activity. However, we were pleasantly surprised to discover a hive of activity around the Lancashire-based manufacturer’s exhibit.

Husband and wife team James and Violet Welch never stand still for long. As we arrived, Violet was busily making sure one of the company’s new homes, England’s Rose, was ready for us to review.

Superb home

We had actually sneaked a quick look at this stylish model at the end of July at the firm’s factory. Back then, it was just a shell with wires and piping being added. We were told that this was the new model for The Lawns and we waited with baited breath to see whether it would be ready in time for the Hull show. We needn’t have fretted. As good as their word – and despite having a full order book to tackle – the Welches came up trumps… and then some!

Along with thousands of visitors to 2017’s Caravan Extravaganza, PH&HC was treated to the finished article... and what a superb home England’s Rose is!

Our A to Z directory is designed to help you find the best specialist insurer, to give you the peace of mind that you are properly covered and potentially save you money into the bargain...
