Shamba Holiday Park

Me gustó Swimming pool and good sized pitches

No me gustó The shop is limited. The evening lounge and games rooms are only open Thursday-Sunday. Constant smell of weed, chavvy families who were up late and walking around wanting to start arguments. The park needs a huge update and wouldn’t class it as a park.

Me gustó Staff let us check in early as I didn't read it was 2pm check in (seems late when check out 11am).

Pool was free to use & open from 9am to 5pm. It was also partially covered so have best of both worlds, shelter & sun if wish.

Close to amenities should you need them, Lidl, Sainsburys, Halfords etc.

No me gustó Pool had no lifeguard, so some children unsupervised were ruining it for others bombing in the pool & screeching at top of their voices.

Toilets at 7:00am were in a bad way. No cleaned from what looked like a busy night before & no toilet paper. Showers were push button which was fine but water temp needs checking as just to say warm enough to not be unpleasant.

Food truck was closed on a Saturday night & shop closes at 4pm. Not end of world but think they missed some customers they could have had.

Pitches quite close together & not a lot of walkways between pitches. So people would wander through your pitch quite often. Again not end of world.

Bins overflowing on the Sunday.

I think more staff on site would overcome all these issues. Especially as it was a completely full site.

Me gustó Electricity worked. Young staff positive but let down by Management / Owners

No me gustó Facilities not cleaned or restocked. Wifi couldn't be described as working, poorly stocked shop, Clubhouse, when it did it opened late and shut early. Blamed on staff shortages which is not a legitimate excuse as this sis down to lack of management, uncaring owners and poor planning not the young staffs fault.

Me gustó It was our first time camping enjoyed the experience.

No me gustó The showers were dirty and a shame not a bit more on site shop was pretty empty and we had a family set up a goal next to our tent with the footballs flying everywhere which was not very relaxing.

Me gustó How close the site was to local attractions. Generous pitch sizes.

No me gustó Campsite seemed run down.
Over the whole weekend, there was not one loo roll available in the women’s or men’s toilet.

Me gustó Nothing the place is rotten and sickly and the staff were on drugs

No me gustó Every bad review is true do not let any good review change your mind this place is has been in administration for 3 years

The staff will happily tell you all of the bad that’s been happening here and how many complaints they get when you tell them your leaving


Children’s bikes and scooters and footballs being taken including my sons football

The campsite was completely understaffed there did not seem to be anybody properly managing what was going on and one of the women who was actually staying on the campsite was having to tell people arriving where their pitches were because there were no staff there to do it she told me all about what had been going on in the previous days

When trying to get hold of any manager or owner they didn’t answer

The whole campsite was filthy dirty poorly managed and nothing like what I would expect from a campsite

Someone opened our battery box and tried to take our battery

The Staff were on drugs or drunk a woman staying there told me what she had witnessed in the days before


I find this shocking on a campsite where families and children are staying and these are not things anybody should be hearing about or witnessing when they have paid to stay somewhere they expect to be safe and clean and the little children not be where drug addicts are

regarding the swimming pool there was no lifeguard present and children were standing around the edge of the pool and going backwards and forwards for a toilet around the side of the pool

There were men in the toilets giving them a wipe around never a female

The whole place was rotten and was completely run down we had booked for 4 nights left after 1 expecting a safe clean and well managed place please stay away from this campsite

The campsite was filthy dirty the lack of staff the arguments and rows loud parting through the night and pulling at our awning the drug use the lack of supervision around the swimming pool and just a dirty place and the fact the whole campsite was smoked out from the smell of drugs and there were so many people complaining
One of the long stay women on there her dog tried to bite my child and bit another child children beating there bikes into peoples motors I’ve stayed on some campsites

No refunds for early check out apparently this is stated


This campsite needs shutting down and taking off of pitch up I witnessed 2 elderly people who didn’t speak English who had paid over £500 for a stay pitch up needs to contact all people who have booked through them as I’m sure the good reviews must be fake or from someone who would be happy with this type of environment
