Independent Campsite Reviews

Fantastic site. We stayed there for 10 nights June'05. We had fab weather, our Thomson Al Fresco mobile home was immaculate. The size of the park made it ideal to hire bikes and ride around the site and the lake. The pool area is outstanding. There are small slides for the toddlers and larger slides for the older children. Another bonus for this park was the amount of sunbeds available around the pool, never a problem to get one. We travelled with our two little boys aged 3 and 5. We bought a dvd player for the drive and didn't have to listen to "are we there yet Mum?!" at all. There was a good mixture of international clients here, which didn't give the park the "Brits abroad" atmosphere which we really don't like.

The only negative thing I have to say is that the park is very isolated and you have to drive approx 10 km to reach a large supermarket. Night time noise levels were low but the park was getting very busy by the time we left. Kids facilities were fab. Quad bikes available during the afternoon, a fabulous adventure playground and pirate ship (which you can see from the bar, ideal if you want to chill out with a drink whilst the kids are having fun in full view.) The outdoor seating area overlooks the lakeside beach, a must for watching the sunset!

Overall I would give this park 10/10.

Happy Holidays!

Excellent campsite, spent 10 days in August, weather was good. Facilities very clean, shop excellent. Sporting facilities great, pool very attractive and clean but cold. The children swam in the lake and used inflatables. We didn't want to leave. The reception staff were very helpful and spoke fluent English. The site had a library and visitors were leaving their holiday reads to swell the book stock. We booked again for next year.

We're just back from having spent 3 weeks on this site with our own caravan. Site facilities are excellent and pitches sufficiently big. The staff in general were very helpful...two of the staff kinda let the rest down...one girl in reception and one in the bar. Neither seemed to have any interest in customer care and customers seemed to be an irritation to them. Perhaps I was unfortunate to encounter both on a few different occasions when I was looking for info.

I think the use of large, aggressive guard dogs with security guards to patrol the campsite after 11.00pm was a bit heavy handed and unnecessary. Security and rules seem to be big issues/concern for the campsite owners. There was no evidence that this was necessary although maybe this was due to the rules etc!! The weather was very mixed which didn't help matters but all in all, despite the excellent facilities, the presence of the guard dogs (which gave my youngest nightmares) and the lack of assistance from two members of staff mean I won't be rushing back there next year.

Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week stay in our caravan. Weather was poor for August and we would recommend staying in June / July. Met some great friends but made several enemies (mainly Dutch) and the Dutch made up the vast marjority of visitors.They insisted on following camp rules - total silence after 10:30pm!!(what teenagers want to go to bed at this time whilst on holiday!!!!!)

We also encountered total lack of customer care from one girl at the bar (later informed that she was related to the owner) but Freddy the barman was excellent.

The security and guard dogs were way over the top and in my opinion the site is not yet geared up for teenagers but they are currently building an indoor swimming pool which might help considering the weather in this region!.

Excellent site for 11yrs and under but request sunny pitch near the main pool/ lake area.

Staff on site seem to work in fear of Senior management!

Tip of the day! - do not talk in your awning after 10:30pm or suffer a visit from your Dutch neighbour! ( A fellow Brit had a complaint whilst playing cards with his 11yr old daughter - not just us rowdy Welsh!

We stayed here in August, weather was terrible rained for 5 days. The campsite itself was very good, lovely pools and play areas, but as it was raining there was nothing for the kids to do, except play games in the caravan, which after 3 days got a bit tedious. Couldn’t use the pools (they were very cold), On-site shop wasn’t up to much, restaurant ok but expensive. Even the entertainment was outside so for 2 nights they couldn’t do much and the night they did wasn’t much good. We went with Canvas and I don’t think any of the reps were over 20 and didn’t help much when we asked if there was anywhere to go while it was raining.

But I didn’t see any guard dogs around at night, but saying that our pitch was near the back of the site next to the golf course so perhaps they didn’t come that far.

We went with Canvas in August 06; kids aged 20 months and 4. Our kids loved it - the lake beach is FAB; had the weather been better this would have kept them happy for the whole holiday. It is small enough to cycle round and our son was riding around like he owned the place by the end of the holiday. Good children’s play area; reasonable shop but expensive, bike hire/mini golf, generally good facilities but we found the pool to be FREEZING. Far too cold for us, let alone small children. We tried twice to use it and gave up after 20 minutes when the children turned blue!

Although we didn't go ourselves because our children were in bed, we heard from others that the evening entertainment programme was first class.

We suffered because the weather when we went was pretty terrible - four days of unadulterated sunshine in two weeks. Because this site is in the middle of nowhere, it does challenge you when you have small children who are too small to play board games etc. There are only so many castles toddlers can put up with! We ended up going home a day early because of that, but we had no complaints at all about the site - except please heat the pool!!

Magnificent campsite! The children love it... and hence so do the adults!!!

Thanks to the team, and we look forward to next year.

Another Yelloh that made us happy!

we made loadz of mates there, 30 something! it was amaaaazin best holiday ever!!!!

Goin bak next year ha ha, my mum and dad want to go bak 2!

Just got back from this site, August 07. Although we had a bit of rain, mainly at night, once the sunshine came out it was over 30 degrees. Excellent pool area, though the water was cold. Kids (8 years and 4 years) loved the site and could quite easily play safely in the children's pool with the slides. The bar area was excellent although a little pricey but everyone was very welcoming and spoke English. The shop was well stocked and the restaurant served excellent food. The children's club on site was very good with lots to do and the play area was good as well.

Overall excellent campsite, clean and tidy. The only downside was that it is a bit off the beaten track so you have to drive to the nearest town being 13 kms.

We would visit this campsite again, perhaps en route to the south of France where the weather is guaranteed!
