We loved the park. Made some great memories.
Electric grass pitch (large)
Liked Had an amazing holiday here in our tent. Lovely site. Right near the beach, great for walks. Saw the sunrise. So much to do on site. Loved Joes American grill and the chippy. Saw sparkles the bunny show and played bingo. Outdoor pool great. Definitely coming back. Went into Lowestoft and Great Yarmouth. Must see is the Hippodrome Circus. Amazing.
Disliked Toilets could do with a few more cleans a day. Use more bleach and air freshener. Would be a good idea to leave a squeegee mop, so people can mop up the water after a shower, as the water runs into the middle between the showers and toilets.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked I liked that it’s a very big place, and we didn’t feel alone in the middle of nowhere.
Disliked There are more things we didn’t like about this place. Firstly, the toilets were quite far from the tents and not in great condition. To access the swimming pool, we had to wait almost an hour at the entrance. The staff member checking our pool passes told us we could only enter at 2 o’clock, so we were left waiting. In the meantime, we tried to sit on the chairs by the outdoor pool, but another staff member asked us to leave, saying their policy doesn’t allow anyone to stay there before the opening time. Even when I asked if at least the children could sit, he insisted we leave.
On top of that, the sea is quite far away, the beach is full of stones, and there was also dog waste around, which made it unpleasant. Overall, I don’t recommend this place at all. We really disliked our stay and will not come back again.

Would not go back
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Evening entertainment
Disliked No hot water showers in the pool area freezing cold. Was not able to shower my 5month old baby after swimming. Even the taps in the toilet had no hot water. Had to boil a kettle when we got back and bath him in a paddling pool. The camping showers were often cold no hot water if more than one person in there. The toilets were very dirty. This was not acceptable no apologies from staff either!

Electric grass pitch (large)
Liked The swimming pools and the animal activity which are free.
Disliked One shower block which needs knocking down and rebuilding, dirty/old and outdated. The washing up facilities are outside and again, dirty/old/outdated and although there is a small roof there outside. Pitch was also on quite a large slope.

Plenty of water taps
Decent shop
Proximity to the beach
Ice cream was lovely
Disliked Toilets were a 2/5. Often had pee on the seats, no loo roll or soap.
Showers were lukewarm warm with flashes of hot.
Chip shop on site was mediocre.

Friendly staff, level pitches, shower/toilet block needs updating.
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked The campsite area was well kept & tidy. Pitches quite close together but ok. The staff were all friendly and helpful in all areas. The restaurant food was a decent standard. Activities were all booked up online before we even arrived but we did always manage to get a walk-in at the swimming pool. But crazy golf etc available. Nice beach. Good location with plenty to do in the area.
Disliked The toilet/shower block needs updating and the hot water runs out. It is also quite a walk from the camping area and set nearer the static caravans that don't need it, so really feel an additional block needs to be provided in the camping area. The wait/queue in the restaurant could be lengthy so must be worse on the weekends, but the staff do their best.
