Fabulous holiday

We had a fabulous stay. Only thing I didn’t understand was why pay more for a pet friendly caravan and then have to pay again for a dog? Surely it should be included in the price of a pet friendly caravan as they are generally more expensive than a non Pet friendly caravan? Other than that, I couldn’t fault the place, everyone was friendly, the service was next level. Would defo stay again.

Good customer service and staff very responsive. Evening entertainment is funny and reps very positive/humorous. Accommodation: Static Caravan fine. Location: Very Central Pool indoor and outdoor, small but adequate. Downside: Drinks prices at the bar are very expensive! No shop on site, although co-op is only a 2 minute walk from yhe entrance.

We asked for a easy access caravan, didn't get one, tried to get it changed but they said that there was none available, couldn't check in before 4pm, they wouldn't even tell me which caravan I was getting which seemed awkward, we paid for a luxury caravan, it wasn't, the carpets and settee, 6 dinning chairs were dirty and stained, the sink work top was stained and had mould around the edges, outside the decking was filthy, we had to walk down some steps despite asking for a easy access, my wife struggles walking, they didn't seemed bothered,

Clean and lovely place

Really clean and spacious caravan, very pretty setting. The only mark down on cleanliness was for the pool and changing areas, it was a nice pool but there wasn't really anywhere to change and leave stuff, and the general changing area/ toilets could've done with more regular cleaning. The caravan and everywhere else was very clean though, we had a lovely stay and would return.
