Brighouse Bay Holiday Park

De ruimte om onze tent en de vele toiletvoorzieningen

Veel luidruchtige gasten

Near beach

Noise and rubbish

The beach side location was nice, having direct access through the woodland onto the beach was a plus.

The shower block facilities were excellent, consisting of individual suites with toilet sink and shower, so nice and private. Shower nice and warm and no push button, but A lever you can keep on for duration.

Beautiful starry nights here.

The facilities are CLOSED despite the Covid restrictions being lifted before our stay. The bowling, pool, sauna, jacuzzi, entertainment are all closed. This totally ruined our stay as we picked this site primarily for these facilities and particularly for my son to enjoy as we had already been holidaying in Scotland for over a week by the time we arrived here, as we were doing site-seeing and city tours, we had booked until now, Sites with more basic facilities as we weren’t on site apart from to sleep.

This site was supposed to be our little haven of rest and relaxation from our more adventurous stuff and we choose a sight which *seemed* to have everything on offer for a self contained, relaxing stay with things to do onsite. What a big mistake to choose this site. My son was hugely disappointed and bored and whilst we were not bored, we were disappointed and at a loss of what to do for him there as he is a teen and has outgrown the children’s park, which was the only thing open.

Compounded by the fact that the weather was mostly bad /unreliable and the WiFi did not work and we couldn’t get a phone signal on the park ( something I actually consider a bonus but my teenage son did not given there was nothing open) wee all ended up wishing away the week.

It’s a real shame as it may have been a nice week if the services were open. We will not know as we will never return to this site after this experience. We should have been told before our arrival that the facilities would remain shut even after the restrictions permitted them open- then we could have booked somewhere else.

So if you are a family travelling or these facilities are important to you, my advice is to check before you book! Do not assume they are open because Covid restrictions are lifted. Apparently it is due to lack of staff, so could be an ongoing issue. This lack of staff was felt elsewhere to. The site was generally not well maintained. The pitches were the worst we had had, poorly maintained and Unlevel. The restaurant/bar is very old tired and run down and the food appalling quality ( we only went once) and the patio area, which has a lovely view out to sea, was covered in rubbish and fag buts.

The location itself is pretty and extremely remote - we liked this because we thought we had everything on hand, when you realise this is not the case , amenities outside the park are many miles away. Even to a decent supermarket is about 20miles away or a little Tesco Extra about 10 miles. The site shop is not worth having, it’s tiny and poorly stocked. Cant even get fruit or fresh bread. So expect to travel for supplies.

Overall, a terrible stay for us and one we will never repeat here after this experience. We feel totally misold and would have made different arrangements if aware. It’s a shame as it could be good here, and maybe it was once, but it needs some serious TLC and staffing of advertised facilities to make that a possibility.

Lack of bins/poo bins

Clean facilities. Pleasant staff at reception. Fully serviced pitch is the way to go.

A bit rural for anyone with mobility problems. Phone signal is hit and miss. No WiFi.

The staff were friendly and nice. The caravan park was clean and tidy. It was so close to the beach. And lovely walks and nice golf course. Toilets were clean and working. The play park was really big and looked amazing .

The shop didn't have much in it. The hours it was open was limited. Some of the activities weren't on . Horse trekking. And swimming pool. And the bar and entertainment hall was very limited with hours and things to do. The pitch we were on didn't get any sun at all. Had to move out to the grass area. Not many full service pitches . The toilet block the ladies showers could do with all curtains and not the doors as the doors kept falling off. Needed more hand sanitizers in the bathroom .
