What customers say
Glamping pods are comfy & clean, grounds & carts are a hit! Staff are super friendly. Washrooms can be hit-or-miss cleanliness-wise & far for some. Food & Wi-Fi pricey. A bed bug issue in July 2025 is concerning, but most would still return.

Anonymous Camping pod
Liked The site location is quite good. The pods are located at the end of the park and they have their own toilet block and car park. The pod had good insulation and heating, so it was a win. Kids play area was also ok.
Disliked Cleanliness of the pods and the bathrooms.
The fact that they don't tell you that you can't use fire pits only charcoal bbq, just inform you at the arrival.
Quality of the mattresses at the pod, they were horribly thin, my camping mat gives better quality sleep than those.
Pool maintenance, they don't tell you that the poll is shut on every Friday, as it is their changeover day, but they don't tell you that until you arrive. Due to "issues with filtration" they also had the pool shut on Saturday, so we never got to use it. Very disappointing.
The quality of the kids entertainment could also be better, it seemed that everything was put on a £50 annual budget by unentusiastic staff.

Anonymous Camping pod
Liked The site has such a lovely, peaceful atmosphere. Even when there are quite a few people around, it never feels crowded or busy. We stayed in one of the pods, which was simple but absolutely perfect for us. I also like that my pod was close to toilets so no long walk.
The kids had a fantastic time, especially enjoying the swimming pool, evening disco, and being able to make friends with other children nearby. It was a wonderful family stay, and we would happily come back again!
Disliked Activities for kids were very short. They will definitely enjoy longer sessions.

Could do with more entertainment midweek.
Anonymous Camping pod
Liked It private and too far away from the toilets and shower block
Disliked The shower block needs a thorough clean, never see any cleaners for the 3 days I was there. Lots of cobwebs, and it needs a good clean in all the corners. It never smelled like it was clean. No disinfectant or didn't see the floors being washed frequently. You have a lot of traffic go through there.

OK for a couple of nights but not set up for longer stays
Camping pod
Liked Pods are a great size and well insulated. Lots of plug sockets, heater, mirror and furniture. The pods are located in a quieter field away from the main site with all the caravans so quite peaceful.
Disliked Showers and toilets not regularly cleaned. Pants left lying around, water didnt drain properly and it was so hot that children couldn't use it.
Booking system for swimming isn't great. We were only able to go once and the swim session is really short.
On site shop is very limited. Food in the bar is overpriced and poor quality.

Camping pod
Liked The campings pods are comfortable and located in a quiet area, with improved parking. Marlie has improved access to its shower block and drinking water facilities since our last visit, which is very welcome.
Disliked The entertainment in the clubhouse is far too loud. The staff at the bar frequently have to shout at each other and customers to be heard. One of our meals was missed from our dinner order, as the staff member didn't hear me.

Staff where friendly pod was clean
Camping pod
Liked We stayed in pod 7 and it was great even in the wind and rain, the staff are 5 star and where really friendly and made you feel at home, only issues was some fixings lose on walls and the mattress, it defiantly needs replacing as it made us both roll to the middle of the bed and is very thin so didn't sleep well but still worth a stay for a pod experience.
Disliked double Mattress
food and drink on the expensive side
