Newlands Holiday Park

Clean toilets, facilities, maintenance

–

Shower facilities were good, well kept and clean. Clubhouse and pool were fantastic. Well kept pitches. Lovely park and arcade for younger children. Shop was very reasonable with freshly baked baguettes and croissants and stocked with fresh bread from the local bakery. Within walking distance to Charmouth beach.

Our pitch was slanted so we had to adapt to living wonky for the week. WiFi didn't work but that's not such a bad thing, kept the kids off their phones.

Clean shower blocks, very friendly staff, londis on site, inside and outside pool, easy walking distance to village main street and beech.

Being really picky now but would be nice if pitches were spaced bit further apart and nothing to do with campsite….more than 3 places to eat in charmouth would be nice, still plenty of places near by.

Cleanliness of site

Liked the location, clean holiday park, plenty of facilities (Spar shop onsite) We was able to walk 10-15 minutes down the road and found a place to get hot food for less than £30 in total. The beach is in walking distance, a camping shop is down the road if you need to buy last minute items (needed a airbed).

Price of restaurant and cost of swimming pool. I went with my 3 boys (the Mrs stayed at home) after setting up camp we went for a wonder with the kids and decided to buy us all a pint of coke and ended up paying £14 for a round of coke. Food was expensive (menu can be found online) didn't use the restaurant because as expected the wait for food would be long in the evening which was confirmed by talking to other guests whilst I was there. Second dislike was £3.50 to access the swimming pool per session so would need to pay in the morning then in the afternoon if we came back we had to pay again and as I was paying for myself and 3 boys, it's £14 for a session. Your told you get a hour but was able to stay in longer because the outside wasn't that busy so this is a bonus. I would prefer the option to pay a one off payment to cover us for the week and unlimited access rather than paying each time we go in.

Facilities and night activities

–

Clean site, Bathrooms are ok but can do with an additional clean during the day or paper towels for people to clean up the counters. The Pools was great and the Restaurant was nice but doesn't cater for fussy children. The kids loved the play area. The beach is only a 20min walk away.

Out pitch was a bit down hill, this made sleeping a bit difficult. I would have liked to be made aware of the swimming pass when we checked in at reception as this would have saved me some money. All the games and vending machine requires cash and there is no cashpoint on site and the resturant and shop will not do a cash back.

The facilities and cleanliness

Not allowed gazebos as it was very hot in the tent with little shade.

Picturesque, clean facilities, peaceful, outdoor pool and park.
