This is just to echo the great comments made by others on the site. We went for a short break with a 5 month old baby. The facilities and activities are great for kids and we will definitely go again when our son is older. The Superior Van we booked was an ok size for a young family, and it was clean and tidy - although the kitchen utensils were not particularly comprehensive...but we didn't go there to cook!!! We went to the pool early and it was not very busy, so was great for us to try out our boy's first swim. He also met the characters at the character breakfast on our last day at the Mash and Barrel, which amazingly he loved and didn't scream the place down as we expected! The food was good, and although they were very efficient and friendly, we did hear a waitress say to someone else it's always very busy on a Friday morning. We've never been on a holiday camp holiday before as a couple, and it was great, just the right amount of cheese for kids! All the staff, from reception to security were really friendly and you could tell they enjoyed their job.
The coastal walk along Chesil beach from the site was great and there seemed to be a good balance between indoor and outdoor activities. The site seemed very secluded and peaceful, despite it being half term, and yet it was very close to Portland and Weymouth and lots of other places of interest in the area. The sunsets across the fleet were amazing.
When we go again or when recommending the site to others we would say to remember to bring things like oven gloves and a bath mat and extra kitchen utensils if you are planning on cooking. The Fish and Chips up by the park entrance were amazing...much better than the ones onsite looked. There is a Tesco express by the Esso garage about 5 mins away from the site - (right when you get to the main road out of the park) which was pretty well stocked, bit better than the Spa onsite.
We had a great time and hope to go again soon.
Room Tip: ask for a van away from the entertainment complex as it could be a bit noisy on "party" ni...
