Liked The reception staff and Rhyan were lovely, and so was the pools.
Disliked My biggest complaint isn't the actual place itself, it's the clientele! First night, I was verbally assaulted, just for quietly cutting through the hedge opening to go to the toilet at night. The language was appalling in front of my 11-year-old son. Second night, my kids were playing tag with some other kids they'd met (9.45pm), only to be screamed at, called the C word, and told they should be in bed! They're on their holidays, not glued to a screen, doing what kids should be doing on holiday. There was a gang fight which resulted in armed police being called, the list goes on. In the end we paid an additional £400 to upgrade from camping to a caravan to get away from where we were. Granted it's not the site's fault, but nevertheless, it gave us the worst holiday we've ever had.
As for the food, don't bother. We spent over £80 on our first night to get chicken that could literally bounce off the floor, it was so rubbery. My kids even saw the kitchen staff eating food from customers' plates. That in itself is a major food hygiene concern. Then there's the 50-minute rule in the pool. You can't even book until the day itself, and if you're not online the moment bookings open at 9.30am, you can miss your preferred time slot altogether. You pay a lot of money for these holidays, and 50 minutes simply isn't enough.
I also think holiday parks need to be far more understanding when it comes to prescribed medication. I have a legally prescribed medical cannabis vape, which produces little to no smell. After someone complained, security arrived as though I'd committed a serious offence. I was then told it would be "preferred" if I took my medication off-site. In the end, I had to buy a toilet tent, set it up beside our caravan, and hide away every time I needed my medication.
That is not how anyone should be made to take legally prescribed medicine while on holiday. No one should feel embarrassed, singled out, or forced into hiding because of a treatment prescribed by their doctor. We came away to relax, grieve (my father died) and make happy memories as a family, but instead we left stressed, upset, and hugely disappointed. Sadly, despite the facilities themselves being good, the overall experience means we won't be returning or recommending this holiday park to others.
