Liked Big play area for the kids a bit more suited to 4+ I’d say climbing stuff, a woods to wonder around, kids liked hearing the monkeys from the zoo in the evenings 😜 very tidy site, clothes washing facilities. Book swap and games to borrow modern showers. Very helpful staff that go out of their way to help you. We got there and were worried about getting stuck so she kindly moved things around so there was room for us to stay on a hard standing at no extra cost. Discount on the soo next door. Shop and chip shop over the road. Another park down the road too. We were a large 6 berth seater motorhome.

Disliked Maybe trim some branches of the trees along the roads leading to the pitches as it hits the top of the motorhome and some places unavoidable. Only negative at all :)

From the manager: Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! We’re really glad your family enjoyed the play area, woodland walks, and even hearing the monkeys from the zoo.
We’re especially pleased our team could help by moving things around so you could stay on a hardstanding pitch with your larger motorhome. It’s wonderful that you made the most of the zoo discount and nearby amenities too.
We really appreciate you choosing Applewood and hope to welcome you back again soon!

Liked Cleanliness of showers and toilets

Disliked Wi-Fi was weak

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback — we’re really pleased to hear you were happy with the cleanliness of our showers and toilets.
We’re sorry to hear the Wi‑Fi felt weak during your stay. We’ve been reviewing the system following comments like yours, but it’s worth noting that getting a strong signal inside a motorhome or caravan can be difficult due to the insulation and materials used. Even so, we’re continuing to look at ways we can improve coverage around the site.
Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience.
We hope to welcome you back to Applewood soon.

Liked Family friendly site with a great play area for children. The site and facilities were kept amazingly clean. Super friendly and knowledgeable staff. Park wardens on site 24/7. Zoo in very close proximity. Pub, butcher, take away and local shop all within a couple of minutes walk. Would recommend this site and we will be back ☺️

Regarding your comment about the electric hook‑up on pitch 11 — thank you for bringing this to our attention.
We’re pleased to share that all electrical hook‑ups across the main park have now been upgraded to 16‑amp. We have also moved the positioning of the hook‑up points to ensure guests no longer need to pass cables through hedges or encroach on anyone’s privacy.
Thank you again for your helpful feedback. We look forward to welcoming you back to Applewood soon!

Liked Welcomed by the office and site well thought out.

Disliked Would have preferred to have been spaced out away from others if possible. Due to time of booking ie the end of season there was empty pitches but we had someone beside us and in front of us.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for sharing your feedback — we’re pleased to hear you felt welcomed on arrival and found the site well thought out.
Regarding your comments about pitch spacing, we completely understand your preference for a quieter area.
To clarify, guests are able to choose their own pitch at the time of booking, and we don’t allocate pitches on arrival. That said, we’re always more than happy to discuss pitch locations when you check in, and we will always do our very best to find a spot that suits your needs, subject to availability at the time.
Thank you again for your helpful feedback.
We hope to welcome you back to Applewood and help ensure your next stay feels perfectly placed.
