I think its a great idea, we used to do keycamp holidays abroad in France in these tents.
you would have to make the price competitive to static caravans as i know that families often choose ready tents as they are cheaper option.
I would also consider how you would advertise that you had these tents. Most people who search touring campsites expect to take their own kit. If you have statics on your site aswell then you will find these tents will be popular if they are a cheaper alternative.
In a readytent i would expect a proper mini fridge and ehu so you would need to consider the amps that you would need. Some french sites say no hairdryer or straightners
i would also expect decent campbeds.
you would need to consider how you would maintain the fabric and the pitch would need to be well appointed to avoid waterlogging over time.
I would hire a readytent as an alternative to a static but only if it was cheaper.

I love ready tents as long as they are not over priced. If you look at some of the Dutch websites such as roan.nl and rentatent.nl their prices for a week abroad any time other than July and early August are amazing. You can get a full week for just over £100. Therefore for me to consider camping in the Uk the price would need to be competitive.
I would love to use a ready tent in the Uk but prices have always been ridiculous.
I would expect electric, decent beds, fridge, gas stove and proper crockery.
Good luck and keep us posted
