Avon Valley Adventure Park

Mi è piaciuto Proximity to Avon Valley Adventure Park is great and access to the parks non-manned attractions was good fun. The park itself is nice, lots of activities, family friendly.

Non mi è piaciuto I’m not sure more than 1 day at the park itself is necessary and for us it may have been better to stay off site overnight. The idea of camping here is great but not sure they’ve quite pulled it off for motorhomes/campervans as of yet. However, ‘basecamp’ looked much nicer when we wandered by and we heard great things about the pod with hot tub from a family staying there (sounded fab).

Treating the motorhome area as a stand alone campsite (minus £17 park entry fee for 2 days during summer x 3 people = £51, you’re paying £149 for 2 nights camping)
You basically stay in an extension of the car park which isnt desirable with young children. More than £70 per night seems very expensive when comparing to ‘all singing and dancing’ holiday parks we’ve been to within this trip.

Toilets/showers could use some attention/improvements, particularly the toilets doors which are difficult to close and lock.

Mi è piaciuto The park had alot to offer and my 2.5 year old loved it.
The park was run down in terms of fencing,sheds, old containers around the place for storage but the fun my boy and memories made a family will last forever.

Non mi è piaciuto We stayed in our motorhome section, the toilets blocked alot during our stay,and the gravel put in as the hard standing was big stone and prettt dusty as it was a dry spell we had.

Mi è piaciuto We loved our stay at Avon Valley! Amazing that campers can use the park after hours. All the staff we dealt with were so lovely and helpful! The facilities on the park are great, lots of hand washing stations, water refills points and an absolute bonus that everything (expect food and quads) is free!! The kiddos loved their stay from start to finish! The campsite kitchen was ideal as we’d forgotten our mini bbq! If you’re camping and visiting the park, it’s perfect as you can pop back to camp for lunch! The slip and slide and silent disco were a HUGE hit with us and the kiddos! I personally loved the pig racing! The time table of activity’s was super! We also stayed the weekend of the balloon fiesta, such a good view!

Non mi è piaciuto The campsite its self is ok! The facilities are very basic and “rustic” The toilets blocked twice on our stay, I just don’t think they could keep up with the amount of people there. No fault of the park, but most of the campers had ZERO respect for the quiet hours of 9pm - 6am. People still up shouting and partying at 12! If you’re used to a quiet night sleep (like we are!) the train the other side of the campsite goes all night.

Mi è piaciuto The park facilities bring joy to children every day, which is truly commendable.

Non mi è piaciuto The toilets and shower facilities need significant improvement. The restroom doors cannot be locked for a long time, and I have witnessed many awkward situations where people are using the restroom while others open the door. This is completely unacceptable. The shower facilities are too basic. If you want guests to return, improvement is absolutely necessary.

Mi è piaciuto The tents were really spacious and beds comfortable... Having the hot tub was great and very private. Also having access to the park up until 9pm was an added bonus!

Non mi è piaciuto The only thing we were not as keen on were the toilets and shower. The shower was either scalding or only slightly warm. That is our only dislike

Mi è piaciuto Everything, we have been many times and the kids always have the best time, especially as we are able to access everything when all the day visitors leave, the kids love being able to go inti the softplay until late. Stayed in the adventure pod with hot tub and it was lovely

Mi è piaciuto After hours access to park and the bar was great. Food on site was delicious. Was great to hire explorer tent so didn't have to set up our own tent and beds etc.

Non mi è piaciuto Facilities (toilets and showers) were very basic. Toilets in Base Camp overflowed but we're quickly sorted.

Mi è piaciuto Entry to the park 24hrs is amazing, and makes this place unique. Amazing for our kids aged 4&6 yrs. Camping and park felt really safe and relaxed. Great area with lots of amenities close by. Flourish farm shop (which is basically next door) is superb.
Tent was great quality.
Bar food was tasty and priced well.
Lovely riverside walk.

Non mi è piaciuto Rustic toilets kept blocking however you could use the toilets inside the park so not a major issue.
One shower was cold all the time which limited us to one shower however never struggled to get a shower when we needed it.

Dal gestore: Thank you so much for your lovely and thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear that your family enjoyed your stay and made the most of the 24hr park access, it’s something we’re really proud to offer our campers. It’s great to hear your little ones had fun and that you felt safe and relaxed throughout your stay.

We're also glad you enjoyed the tent, riverside walk, and nearby gems like Flourish farm shop, we agree, it’s a fantastic spot!

Thank you for your feedback about the rustic toilets and shower. We’re aware of the issue and are working to improve these facilities as part of our ongoing upgrades. In the meantime, we’re happy you found the park toilets and other options convenient.

We hope to welcome you back again soon for more adventures at Avon Valley!

Mi è piaciuto - Kids were so excited to have after-hours access to the park - a real treat for them. Dinosaurs, trampolines, rides... it was excitement to the max!
- One of the best family holidays - honestly what this site lacks in rural beauty it most certainly makes up for in activities for young kids. We stayed for two nights and could have easily stayed for another 2 nights. There is plenty to do!
- There is a Waitrose within easy walking distance and we had a fantastic Sunday lunch at "Haywards at the Grasmere" further into town.
- The park warden was very helpful and friendly
- Good for BBQ'ing. Good mix of families, very friendly folk. Absolute winner for a family with young kids (under 8). We will be back!

Non mi è piaciuto - The showers are 'rustic' (as per the description). It's not the Ritz, we're talking outdoors shower in single cubicles here. But the water was warm, the shower was clean and the pressure was good, so no complaints.
- Toilets were clean but I don't think there were enough of them to cover the number of people staying at the site.
- Again, not the most beautiful place to stay - we were essentially camping in the extension of the park's parking area. Nevertheless, it was quiet, clean and no one comes here for the idyllic rural setting anyways - it's all about the kids' excitement and it does exactly what it promises to do in that regard!

Mi è piaciuto Kids love the park

Non mi è piaciuto There are 5 toilets blocks, some can’t lock and one can’t flush. And the shower blocks is quiet cold as they’re outdoor blocks…

Dal gestore: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that the amenities didn't meet expectations. As it was our opening weekend, we faced a number of unforeseen delays that unfortunately impacted some areas of the campsite including facility readiness. That said our showers are advertised as outdoor blocks so I'm sorry you were expecting something else, I will review our listing to ensure that is very apparent.

We’re taking your feedback seriously and have already resolved any issues with the toilet block.

While the campsite didn't meet the standard we would usually expect, we hope you enjoyed access to the adventure park and all it had to offer.
