Park lovely and quiet as not peak season. Excellent location. Lovely walks for dog on park. Luxury caravan for 6 but 3rd room very very small with hardly any room between the two single beds. Dining room table only had 4 chairs even though for six. Lots of storage space in kitchen. When stripped the bed, mattress not particularly clean. Hot tub private but had to buy a light for safety as no external light outside by it and couldn’t see a thing out there! Despite this we had a fabulous break and the staff were really friendly.

Value for money

Value for money for our type of stay. Spacious it being what it is, you can not get this in a B&B or hotel for that price. Very central on the island which was great for us.

Fabulous holiday

We had a fabulous stay. Only thing I didn’t understand was why pay more for a pet friendly caravan and then have to pay again for a dog? Surely it should be included in the price of a pet friendly caravan as they are generally more expensive than a non Pet friendly caravan? Other than that, I couldn’t fault the place, everyone was friendly, the service was next level. Would defo stay again.
