Forest Park Hotel - Platres - Cyprus - Simply Brilliant

Advantages: Family Friendly - Exceptional Service - Great Value and Location
Disadvantages: None

..., the ski runs on Olympus do brisk business and as such, Platres is an ideal base. The Milomeri and Caledonian waterfalls are also a short drive (followed by long walk in the case of the latter) away. The famous Kykkos monastery is within easy reach, as are a number of picturesque mountain villages such as Omodos and Kakopetria, most of whom have festivals and markets during the summer months. CONCLUSION If you are looking for a great get away within a get away in the Cyprus mountains, and are looking for a brilliant, family friendly hotel experience at reasonable rates, you can do no better than the Forest Park Hotel. As we are self-catering for the rest of our holiday, its nice to have a ?hotel? experience for a couple of days when someone else is doing the cleaning, washing, cooking and tidying up. We have never had any issues on our...

Solway Holiday Park

Advantages: the farm and hot tub
Disadvantages: people in our hot tub

...I have just come back from a week in the Lakes and have decided to try and have a go at reviewing the place we stayed. Solway Holiday Park is situated in Silloth Cumbria (about 22 miles west of Carlisle) which is small village with a population of around 3000. If you want a town with lots going on then Silloth is not for you, it has a lovely large green and a great sea view although it is not a beach. It also has cafes and the odd take away along with some little shops and of course a Spar (everywhere seems to have a Spar). Near the green is amusements which also sells refreshments. The park itself was quite easy to find I got the directions from greenflag. As we drove in through the entrance the reception was quite well sign posted, when we booked we were told booking in time was 4pm (which I thought was a bit late but...

Greenwood Forest Park

Advantages: Something on offer for the whole family
Disadvantages: Need dry weather to appreciate all that is on offer.

For Sat . Nav users the postcode is LL56 4QN. The park in open from February half term to the end of October but the opening times vary, for example, from mid March to beginning of September the park is open from 10 am to 5.30pm.

However, you can get good discounts on family tickets. e.g. for 2 adults and 2 children the prices range from £22.50 in the low season to £33.60 in the high season. This price includes all rides...

Sandford Holiday Park

Advantages: Good family centre with lots of on-site facilities.
Disadvantages: Not as good in the cold wet weather of UK

...I have been to the wonderful Sandford Park in Poole, Dorset, three times now. I went twice when I was younger, with my dad and brother and then returned as an adult, in 2001, with my husband and our kids. My husbands mum and dad also came with us and I will base this review mainly on my experiences there in 2001. ##THE PARK## Sandford Park is set in 64 acres of woodland, close to Purbeck Hills. They cater for all sorts of holidaymakers and their varying budgets. They offer a variety of holiday homes there, which include one bedroom caravans that sleep 2-4, two bedroom caravans that sleep 4-6, three bedroom caravans that sleep 6-8, then the lodge style caravans that sleep either 4-6 or 6-8, depending on number of bedrooms. There is also space for holidaymakers with tents. We?re not really a camping sort of family so cannot...

Review of Sandford Holiday Park

Great Holiday Park

Advantages: Lots to do, beautiful area
Disadvantages: couldn't fit everything in.

...Grizedale Forest and went on the tour of White Scar Caves. We have a lovely day on a Windermere lake cruise, ice creams and general fun down by the lake. My parents and I also thoroughly enjoyed the dove cottage and Wordsworth museum while the boys took the kids to the Lakeside and Haverthwaite railway. We managed to do so much in our holiday but there is so much more that we could have done, we have all said that we will definitely take a trip back (which we did to White Cross Bay, the sister site) and say loads more - plus returned to some of our fav. attractions too. * Recommended? * I would definitively recommend this holiday park, we have a fantastic time, and the kids absolutely loved it....

Warmwell Holiday Park

Advantages: Excellent for the kids
Disadvantages: Park was quite hilly

...In May we went to Havens Warmwell holiday park, near Weymouth, for a midweek break (mon-fri). At Warmwell all the accommodation is in lodges. We had no idea what to expect as we've never been on a holiday like this before (my hubby is strictly an abroad man!). We've got 2 children so really needed a lodge with 3 bedrooms. To get a silver lodge with 3 rooms it cost us £126. You get discounts for children under 5 (£10 for a midweek break and £20 for a full week, for each child). You also get discounts for over 55's (same as childrens) and as my mum came with us we got that one aswell! My hubby works for John Lewis and so we got another discount through them and I think another discount for booking early!! Any more discounts and they would be paying us to go there!! Anyway we arrived at Warmwell (very easy to find, not much else in...

Craig Tara holiday park

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: everything about the place

...We went to Craig Tara holiday park in Ayr this year for our summer holidays ( July 2007), I went as I thought it would be a fun holiday for my kids, at that stage they were aged 8 years, 6 years and 5 years. Looking for a family holiday It was October 2006 and we were looking up different holidays on the internet as we wanted to book well in advance we came across Craig tara, I must say by the look of their website it was brilliant. The chalets looked amazing and there seemed to be loads to do and the prices didnt look bad either. Booking We decided to book a week, half board in a silver chalet, we rang Havens them selves and asked for more details, they told us the price, which was £526, the check in time (2pm) The price included funworks passes for us all, so we booked there and then and paid through debit card.

Haven Holiday Park - Wild Duck

Advantages: There is camping/caravaning facilities
Disadvantages: Our tent was quite away from the toilets, not good at night

...Myself and my family went on holiday last September to Haven Holiday Park - Wild Duck. Which is located about approx 10-15 miles away from Great Yarmouth. This not not one of the big Havens, but is a very friendly and had everything we wanted. We did not stay in one of their holiday homes or chalets we went camping in our tent. As we were going just as the school holidays had finished, the 1st week in September, we were only charged £23 for 5 nights. This price included fun passes for the whole family so we were able to enjoy all the facilities on the park. The children were able to join in with activities in the mornings, which included painting, drawing and general childrens games. There is 2 swimmming pools on site, an indoors one and an outdoors pool. The outdoors pools was such as it was not peak season, but...

Review of Havens holiday parks

Great holiday with the family.

Advantages: Fun, plenty to do, great resort.
Disadvantages: It rained :-(

...I have stayed over night at Ocean Edge Caravan Park with my brother and his family. When they come north they usually stay in a caravan or holiday lodge or cottage, because now that he has kids there just isn't enough room for them all in our house. Ocean Edge Leisure Park is a caravan park on the coast of Morecambe Bay in the historical Heysham Village. The park is a short drive from Morecambe which has supermarkets and shops as well as tourist attractions for the family. The holiday park also had many facilities to keep us all occupied including: An arcade which entertained both us and the kids, An indoor soft play area which my two nieces absolutely love and spent most days in there, a swimming pool, A family lounge which was great for early evening, a beer garden which was great for the adults while the kids played in the outdoor...
