The pitch was a good size and the activities for the kids were good, especially the swimming. Although our children are a bit older now the park was great with a good space for ball games and lots of equipment for them to use.

The toilets were pretty poor and showers were cold, as was the water for pot washing. Although you can't blame the site for this it was also noisy way past the quiet time of 11pm which might be a consideration if you have younger kids.

Large clean site good amenities food and drink available plus things to do for family groups

Under the impression that there was access to the beach within walking distance but all cordoned off due to coastal erosion
Disappointment for some families we met and talked to

The space and hedge around pitch gave sense of privacy. Clean and tidy site. Everyone friendly.

Cold showers in both shower blocks.

Great site bus stop close by and a lovely little chippy next to the site.

Entertainment areas was good apart from a carpet in the games area was loose and caused a trip hazard

Touring pitches need some TLC ours was surrounded by overgrown and scruffy hedges and overgrown nettles on all sides toilet blocks clean but I need of updating

The second pitch allocated to us was good size

1st pitch was water logged, pitch wasn't very level site very basic toilets weren't very clean

The children's entertainment was good, plenty of shows and activities available. Facilities in the park were nice and clean.

The play parks could be better, the mini golf course was not worth the name of mini golf. To many activities were not included in the stay and pay as you book. Swimming pool slots hard to get.

Pitches are spacious and level. Toilets and showers are generally fairly clean. I like the bar/entertainment area as its big, you don't feel like you are on top of people, there's plenty of amusements and you don't have to battle a queue of people waiting for swimming or what ever to play on them.

My gripe with the site is with people in general, not particularly the campsite. Why can't people use actual bins? There was a lot of rubbish in random places, and it was touring peoples rubbish: a bag of empty tins and bottles and cereal boxes left in the toilets, a load of empty crisp packets and bits dumped by the elsan. There was plenty of bins which weren't full, there's no excuse.
I also disliked how expensive the restaurant and the bar was. Buy pitchers of beer or go next door to the social club!

Friendly staff, location of touring pitch area , wild life and lake side pitch

Where do I start ? Check in for touring caravan area seemed to go smoothly . I had requested and paid extra for a premier pitch with hard standing serviced facilities near shower block as hubby has poor mobility . Was given map and pitch number . Drove over to find someone else in our given pitch plus it was a basic grass one anyway . Back to reception , sorry for error but don’t have one available - another camper must have moved into your space “they sometimes do that ! “ Wait a minute it wasn’t the correctly booked pitch in the first place ! Given different one overnight and had to move next day into another one , happy with that until day 13 when a large motor home sat outside our pitch then sent parkdean staff round to say we were in his booked spot , don’t think so but after a chat with staff discover our amended booking had never been changed at day 2 . Next the ladies shower block , what can I say ? Clean enough but badly need upgraded . I’m sure staff try their best but most of the time the floor was like a swimming pool obviously due to bad drainage . Could never get water warm enough then you ended up standing in a pool of water . No mop to help clear , not toilet brush in loo . Complained several times . Just poor and uncared for for such a big company . Wi-Fi abysmal , glad I didn’t pay to upgrade as made no difference
