Just returned from a short break. Stayed many times before and loved it but we were slightly disappointed this time around. We decided to upgrade to a 'gold' caravan which was a waste of time as another family in our party had a better caravan with a sea view and didn't pay for an upgrade! Parking is a major problem...

Hiya lisa b, Thank you for your review. We do apologise for the confusion with caravan 206, it has recently been relocated to the area above the swimming pool and our maintenance team had not got round to replacing the number in the window or the fence in front of it, this is due to be done very shortly. 206...

I had a really good time. The caravan park was clean and tidy. If you are a steam enthusiast it there is a heritage line running right alongside the park. The views from the site over the bay are absolutely breath taking. I love walking when on holiday and the park is right on the coastal path. My husband and... More

Stayed here for the bank holiday weekend and wasn't expecting much after reading the reviews on here, we had a silver caravan that was spotless!! The entertainment team were excellent with the children & my grandaughter couldn't wait to go every night, the bar staff were very friendly. Would definately recommend the Waterside Holiday Park.
