Sandford Holiday Park

Positiv Traveled with 2 teenagers, two 10 year olds and a 6 year old. Had a lovely stay. Nice sized pitches. Toilets and showers do need some attention but they were cleaning them just people using them not maintaining them.
Loved both the indoor and outdoor pool, did not need to book could just turn up.
Would return again if we were heading that way. Level pitch.

Positiv Toilets & showers were reasonable for a large site

Negativ Allocated pitch was taken. Reception gave us another pitch but was partly taken by another user. Reception was then shut and had to get security to allocate a pitch. 3 x trips to reception (long walk) and 90 minutes wasted. No real apology and when we asked for an hour late check out, we were told we don’t do them.

Positiv The amount of activities.
Huge place with a lot of people but was still always able to get a table in the club no matter what time we went in.
Thunderbird chicken was great. We went there every night after clubhouse. This is by far better than any KFC you have ever tried

Negativ We had a woman on our next pitch with 6 teenage kids. She was in caravan and kids were in a tent. Screaming swearing and general messing around till early hours Every night. I phoned up to see if we could move pitch or even upgrade. I was told all the pitches were fully booked. I tried to upgrade to the star pitches (fully serviced). And again was told the same. Yet For the rest of our stay there was 3 star pitches empty and quite a few pitches available in the ehu paddocks where we were. I guess they just didn't want to do the paperwork.

Electric bikes and e scooters are everywhere whizzing passed you.

Negativ After paying very expensive pitch fees, it seems that you then have to pay £55 extra for each child.
The toilet blocks were disgusting, filthy and not maintained properly.
No demarcation between pitches, we had another caravan nearly alongside us.
The place was run by youngsters, who were extremely nice, but didn't have much idea how to sort out any problems.
The crazy golf course was covered in stones, twigs etc so you had to clear the course before you could play.
The drain near our van was full and stunk.

Positiv Lovely place, really nice friendly staff, good entertainment lots to do, site nice and clean.

Negativ Showers not the best, nothing in cubicle to put toiletries, towels or clothes on and showers not powerful. No bins for dog waste. There was also campers who had a nasty cannabis habit the smell was awful.

Positiv The blue coat lady entertainer was an amazing singer

Negativ The pitch cost £60 to use between 2pm and 10 am.. not even 24 hours. If you wanted to arrive at 11am it would cost a further £15. .. that would make it £75 for still not even a day. The pitch was littered with fag buts and a rotten watermelon. This would indicate that no people had gone in there to clean from the previous campers and it's just a way of getting more money from you.

Positiv Lots of activities but disliked having to pay for everything! . Food was reasonable suprisingly, and you can take dogs in certain areas which is helpful. People friendly.

Negativ Lack of signage re speed No mops in showers. Water everwhere. Lots of kids unsupervised on bikes but having fun. Showers cold. Push button to save water but no plugs to wash up so lots of water wasted! Charge of £5 for a plug? Health and safety aspects. Road had big cracks and holes. Surprised no kids were injured. Staff were friendly except for booking in was appalling talked over. Twice. Told could not sleep in awning after paying extra which was disputed then given a pitch no 1 right by barrier which isnt a proper pitch so my husband said we needed to be moved. Don't like not able to get onto a pitch until 2pm half the day gone which you have paid for! Off by 10 am???. Expensive for what it is.
