This is a highly recommended site praised for its cleanliness, excellent facilities, and spacious pitches. Guests enjoyed a wide range of activities for all ages, including pools and on-site entertainment, alongside friendly and helpful staff. While most experiences were overwhelmingly positive, a few minor drawbacks were noted, such as occasional Wi-Fi issues, the cost of some extras, and occasional noise from other guests. Overall, a well-maintained and enjoyable holiday park.

Brilliant! Will stay there again.
Electric grass pitch
Liked Stayed at Crofton for just one night, and it was honestly such a nice little getaway.
The tent pitch was clean, spacious, and easy to set up with everything close by—showers, toilets, and washing-up areas, all kept tidy.
Even though I was only there for a short time, we got to enjoy the heated indoor pool, grab a bite at the Swan Pub and take in the peaceful surroundings.
The atmosphere was super relaxing and the staff were friendly too!
Would definitely come back—next time for a longer stay!
Disliked Nothing

We’re so glad to hear that even with your short stay, you were able to enjoy the peaceful surroundings, the heated indoor pool, and the Swan Pub.

We’d love to welcome you back for a longer stay next time, and we can’t wait to see you again!

Electric grass pitch
Liked Lots to do on site, we couldn’t do activities as didn’t realise you need to book like a month before if you want to do these as spaces go. The kids loved seeing the animals especially the pony and we all loved the tractor ride.
Evening entertainment was good, we enjoyed watching the talent show the most.
Disliked We couldn’t take our 4 kids swimming without asking a stranger if they would watch 2 of our older kids as both little ones 5&2 needed 1-1 adult each. Not that the stranger actually watched them as we made sure they were safe.

Electric grass pitch
Liked Overall the campsite is very good, the indoor pool is great, the evening entertainment is fun. The pitch was flat and well maintained, the shower blocks were clean.
Disliked The chip-shop was a plain nasty money grab, cheap fish and pale chips. Huge disappointment after a long 30 minutes queue which we were told was ‘10 minutes mate’. Avoid as they ended up in the bin.

Electric grass pitch
Liked facilities were very good and very friendly staff.
Disliked Would prefer a separate section for people with dogs. I don't think they should be allowed everywhere. There was a large dog next to our tent and it was barking early in the morning and late at night. Very annoying!
