Newlands Holiday Park

Liked: Big clean showers Close to the beach Friendly staff Bar, arcade room and kids entertainment at half term Swimming pool is very well kept and fair booking system

Disliked: Suffers from boggy areas because of the tiered hillside Nowhere flat for kids to play football or ride bikes

From the manager: Hello, Thank you for your lovely review. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us. Sorry to hear that you didn't find the big area of grass that is usually used for games like football and even cricket! Sadly we can not control the British weather and we do our best to make the drainage on the pitches the best that we can. Best wishes, Newlands Holidays

Liked: Facilities were very clean, staff really nice and good location for walking into the village

Disliked: Unfortunately we were put in the middle of 8 pitches that had all travelled together making it rather loud. When we complain they were very apologetic and told us who to ring if we had any trouble. Pitch sizes were very deep so we didn't have a massive amount of room at the back of our van conversion

Liked: Our stay at Newlands Holiday Park was fantastic, with pleasantly changeable weather we managed to enjoy the entire stay at this great campsite, we took advantage of the attractions at the campsite - swimming pools, game rooms and more, and we also went for a wonderful walk to the nearby beach which took a few minutes walk and we enjoyed wonderful views of the sea from the campsite, the campsite was clean and well-kept, the staff was very nice and helpful😊, we were at this campsite for the second time and of course it was a success

From the manager: Hello, Wow - thank you so much for your amazing review and such lovely photos! We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your holiday with us and hope that many happy family memories were made. We look forward to welcoming you back soon! Best wishes, Newlands Holidays

Liked: Lovely site. Great facilities for kids. Beautiful setting. Not far from the beach. Clean and well kept

Disliked: We weren’t allowed our gazebo. If you don’t use a gazebo, this will not affect you but I know some campers do. It rained for some of the weekend we were there, which meant we had to sit in our tent instead of sitting under our gazebo with our cups of tea or glasses of wine. Also the man that told us to take it down, was a bit mean. I’m not sure of their reasoning behind it but it rather put a dampener on our weekend and for that reason we won’t go back. But other than that, it was a lovely site

From the manager: Hello, Many thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us overall. We do not allow gazebos in high season due to them being such a fire risk; this is advertised before you got here and so I am sorry to hear that it was a surprise to you. Sorry to hear that the gazebo issue will stop you from returning. Out of high season, we do allow them. Best wishes Newlands Holidays

Liked: Clean pool Great food in clubhouse Amazing views

Disliked: Unclean toilets by black field Small pitches

From the manager: Hello, Thank you for your review. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your holiday overall and such fab photos too! I'm sorry to hear that you found the toilets to be cleaned and that you thought the pitches were small. Maybe next time you'll be able to book a larger pitch. Best wishes Newlands Holidays

Liked: Lovely, clean site with great facilities and just 1 mile walk to the beach. Meals in the restaurant were good and plenty to keep the children entertained.

Disliked: Grass pitches with electric hook up felt a bit crammed - by the time your van is parked and awning pitched, you are sitting on top of the neighbours vehicle. Swimming pool prices are a bit steep by the time you have paid for the whole family - particularly as sessions are only 45 mins

From the manager: Hi Jess, Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and it looks like the new play park was a hit with the children! Sorry to hear that you felt it was a little crammed. In busy times, when the park is full, it may seem like a lot of people are around you but please be assured that we stick to strict pitching rules which abide to fire regulations. We do not also hide the fact that swimming is an extra charge. Best wishes Newlands Holidays

Liked: Brilliant holiday park. The facilities were great, enough to do when the weather wasn't great. The swimming pool was lovely. We pitched 2 tents together with friends and had enough room to have space together in the middle. Other campers were respectful of the rules which isn't always the case at larger sites. Showers were warm and clean. The restaurant/bar was welcoming and family friendly. The kids loved the play park.

Disliked: The only complaint I have is the hand dryers! Our pitch was below the toilets and the hand dryers were so noisy at night! It would be great if they could be turned off at quiet time or even if the door/windows were kept closed at night. Be aware there are some steep hills to walk up! Great exercise though! If it rains your pitch may get very muddy, nothing could be done so not a complaint just the drainage when you're pitched on the bank isn't amazing.

From the manager: Hi Louise, Many thanks for your lovely review and fab photos of the views that we are so lucky to have from our site. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and hope that you made many family memories. We have had quite a lot of rain to contend with which has kept us on our toes but we are pleased you had a great time nonetheless. Best wishes, Newlands Holidays

Liked: Location and shop on site

Disliked: Pitches are all on a slope making it very difficult to sleep as constantly rolling off the beds. Site was overcrowded and there was nowhere around the tents for children to play. Everyone was on top of each other. Not a good park for someone with physical disabilities.
