Great quiet getaway

We were very impressed with our stay not knowing what to expect booking last minute with Hoseasons. We had a really nice clean, spacious and comfortable cottage. Good wifi so we could watch films as a family at night. Our dog normally struggles with holiday accommodations but quickly settled into this one. The site itself was very clean and quiet. We felt relaxed at all times not witnessing any antisocial behaviors.

 

The staff were hardworking and friendly. The lifeguard and whoever else responsible kept the pool water temperature and quality tip top. My partner normally opts to not swim on holidays feeling the water is cold and not good but we were all really happy with the whole pool area. As well as the sauna that was always great temperature and clean. Booking was also made easy.

 

The location was beautiful with plenty of things to do with the kids and our pet. Not much to offer in terms of evening entertainment compared to other holiday camps but that’s what we wanted. A relaxing fun quiet getaway.. but they really made and effort for the kids at the Halloween party they put on. We didn’t want to come home! We will definitely consider returning. Hopefully see you again!
