Enter the Quickmove Park Home Gardener of the Year 2024 Competition
Downsizing to a park home should not be the end of your green-fingered hobby. In fact, many park home owners create magnificent displays of easy-to-maintain tubs and hanging baskets, ornamental patios and colourful borders, despite the smaller plot sizes!
That’s why specialist park home estate agents Quickmove are searching for the UK’s best-presented park home gardens, with a range of prize categories to win.
Co-sponsored by Towergate Insurance, Park Home Gardener of the Year 2024 is open to any residential park residents to enter by uploading photos of their garden using the form below.
Our independent judging panel from the park home industry will then select who wins the coveted ‘golden trowel’ trophy and £200 in vouchers.
Prize Categories
There are several new prize categories this year, with winners earning £100-£200 in shopping vouchers.
- Best Ornamental Display (£100 Prize)
- Best Border Display (£100 Prize)
- Best Decking or Patio (£100 Prize)
- Best Basket and Tub Display (£100 Prize)
The winner for Park Home Gardener of the Year 2024 (£200 Prize) will be selected from all entries.
Also new for 2024 is the Park in Bloom award recognizing the best-presented communal park area, with a £200 vouchers prize for the winning park community to put towards a park tea party!

Why not post your garden photos on our Facebook group? #PHGOTY
- Use landscape format and set your camera to a wide aperture so the main subject is sharp, while blurring the background.
- Natural lighting is key when taking outdoor photos. The best-lit times of day are early morning and late afternoon.
- Take photos from different angles, don’t be afraid to zoom in close and step back for a wide shot – make sure your park home is included in the picture!
- Feel free to include any pets in your garden pictures or visiting wildlife such as bees, butterflies and birdlife.
