Carlton Meres Holiday Park

Liked: Fantastic site, we all had a wonderful time. The pods were lovely although a little warm so it is advisable to bring a fan with you as this is not supplied. There were two ponds for fishing ( you will need a permit to fish) a lovely play park for the kids to burn off some steam and a clubhouse. The pool was nice, you do need to book on arrival. And the gym was a good touch. Lovely site and loads areas to walk the dog aswel. Would definitely come back again.

Disliked: Down side to our trip which was a little out of the sites control was the mens toilets and showers were out of use. With the amount of pods they have it was difficult to share only 3 toilets with both men and women as often found there was a que.

Liked: We stay in the pods which overlooked the lake perfect for those who want to do fishing, the pods were clean and spacious, they do get warm in the summer so take a fan. Water station is nearby toilet and shower block was nearby I had a lovely little family break and will definitely return to this lovely little campsite

Disliked: Unfortunately when we stayed the men's toilets got blocked so they had to share the ladies, so often running out of toilet roll so just be aware and take your own, food waiting time in the clubhouse was 40 minutes plus so if you have young children I suggest going early, they often only had one bar staff

Liked: The camping pod was great plenary of space 4 plugs and 2 usb sockets.

Disliked: As a mature couple we were shocked to have been put in the middle of 3 pods of families that were together. When I asked about moving I was told we’re full it’s school holidays isn’t it. I explained we had asked for a pod nearer the carpark for mobility reasons and that the 3 families had phoned and emailed asking to be together. The reception knew nothing of this. So sadly we left the next day as it was too noisy and awkward.

Liked: Great location, great entertainment. Great cozy pods.

Disliked: The beds had plastic on them which make sleeping a nightmare, sliding sheets and noisy. Only one male cubical toilet was working at the time of our stay, currently, they have two cubical toilets, I don't think this is enough due to the amount of pods on the site so they need to upgrade the toilet/shower facilities a little more.

Liked: The area was really nice day and night there is 2 lakes in there was really good breath of fresh air cool breeze fishing on the lake plus 2 swimming pools inside and outside

Disliked: Only thing is my children didn’t like the spiders crawling around in the pod and too much spiders webs everywhere in side outside they didn’t clean it properly, I did told them didn’t do much, probably it’s too busy on summer break

Liked: The beautiful and peaceful area makes you forget the city's busy vibes. The glamping pods, while not overly spacious, are designed with simple yet functional furniture. They are adept at keeping the noise out, ensuring a peaceful stay for a few days. It feels safe and it's a short drive to the surrounding towns and seaside, with plenty of trip opportunities.

Disliked: Despite the two pools, play areas, a mini-golf course, and entertainment, the holiday park is aimed at older people who like peace while fishing or for families with more minor children. Our teenagers were a bit bored. The restaurant at the park offers a diverse menu catering to various tastes. However, the average waiting time for dinner was more than an hour, and the food quality was not up to our expectations. Online, we learned that BBQs were allowed but not campfires; however, another glamper has had a fire on for at least two consecutive nights, and no one has stopped them. The lowest point for us was the facilities. We had to call the reception daily, as there was no hot water in the showers and only one working toilet in the male section. The water issue was fixed on two out of four calls. The toilets and showers were not cleaned frequently, resulting in a dirty place with no toilet paper.
