Model history
Willerby launched the Linwood range for 2019 as a starter holiday home, with many items such as central heating, a galvanised chassis and French doors offered as options (2019 ex-works price £24,093.65 for a 35 x 12 two-bed). By 2021 layouts ran from a 28 x 12 two-bed to a 38 x 12 four-bed sleeping ten.
Willerby still lists the Linwood in 2026, from £37,600, and dealers advertise a 'Linwood Mk2' from 2025. We have not confirmed how the Mk2 differs.
How to identify a Willerby Linwood
- Start with the plate and paperwork. Check the manufacturer plate, serial or chassis number and any original paperwork, then confirm the model against the measured size, layout and specification.
- Layout: the 38 x 12 four-bed is unusual and easy to spot; the 4-bed has U-shaped seating (2021).
- Options: look for central heating, French doors and a galvanised chassis; early models may not have them.
- Mk2: check the plate for Mk2 wording on 2025-on models.
- Measure it yourself. Advert headlines often round sizes or misstate the width.
Specs and typical layout
This is a summary of the sources we used, not a full factory specification for every year.
- Layouts (2019): 32 x 12 2 bed; 35 x 12 2 and 3 bed; 38 x 12 3 and 4 bed
- Layouts (2021 on): from 28 x 12 2 bed (sleeps 6) to 38 x 12 4 bed (sleeps 10)
- Options at launch: galvanised chassis, central heating, French doors, microwave
- L-shaped lounge with fold-out sofa bed; double glazing
- 2025 example: 28 x 12 with central heating, double glazing and fully galvanised chassis
How much is a Willerby Linwood worth?
There is no single figure for a Willerby Linwood. A cash offer depends on the individual caravan: its year, confirmed size and layout, specification, condition, and what collection involves. Year, layout (2 to 4 bedrooms), and whether options such as central heating were fitted make too much difference for a single figure.
Individual valuation recommended.
What would SCB actually pay?
We do not publish a fixed trade-value band for this model because year, specification, condition and collection requirements can make too much difference.
What we pay for a Willerby Linwood is a trade price for the caravan itself, removed from the pitch. It will be below park, dealer and private asking prices, because those include things a trade buyer does not get (a pitch, siting, site-fee packages, warranties and the seller's margin) and leave out costs a trade buyer carries (collection, transport, refurbishment and resale).
Online prices and price context
- Manufacturer 'from' price, 2026: £37,600 (Willerby website; VAT basis not stated)
- Ex-works, 2019 (35 x 12 2 bed): £24,093.65 (Leisuredays)
These are new prices for their years, not used values. A new caravan bought on a park also carries siting, connections and the park's margin.
Retail vs private vs trade: what the numbers mean
- Manufacturer RRP or list price: what the maker quotes for a new caravan, usually before options, delivery, siting and pitch fees. Check whether VAT is included.
- Ex-works price: the factory price for a new unit before delivery and siting; review sites quote it for the model year they tested.
- Dealer retail asking price: a dealer's price for new or used stock. Off-site dealer prices usually exclude a pitch; dealer margin is built in.
- Sited park asking price: what a park asks for a caravan already on a pitch. It often includes siting, connections, steps, decking and sometimes a period of site fees, plus the park's margin.
- Private asking price: what an owner hopes to get, often with the caravan staying on its pitch, subject to park approval and any park commission.
- Trade or cash buyer value: what a buyer such as SCB pays for the caravan itself, removed from the pitch and collected. It is lower than retail because the buyer pays for collection, transport, any refurbishment, a new pitch or resale, and takes on the risk.
An asking price is not a sale price, and neither is what a trade buyer pays. None of the figures in this guide is an SCB purchase price.
What affects Willerby Linwood value?
- Year and paperwork. The plate, serial number and any original paperwork confirm the model year and specification.
- Confirmed size and layout. Measured length, width and bedroom count, not an advert headline.
- Heating and glazing. Whether central heating and double glazing were fitted, and whether the heating works.
- Condition. Damp, roof, floors, windows, cladding and chassis condition matter more than cosmetic finish.
- Appliances and fittings. Whether they are present, safe and working.
- Collection access. Ground conditions, access for the transport vehicle and the caravan's width all affect cost.
- Pitch or no pitch. A trade buyer is buying the caravan, not the pitch, so pitch value and site-fee packages do not transfer.
Known features and quirks
- Many items were options on early models, so two Linwoods of the same year can differ.
- The four-bedroom 38 x 12 sleeps ten.
FAQs
When was the Linwood launched?
It was new for 2019.
Does every Linwood have central heating?
No. It was an option on 2019 models. Check yours.
Can I sell it and keep the pitch?
No. A trade buyer buys the caravan and removes it. Talk to your park about notice, any final site fees and what happens to the pitch.
