Take a look at
https://www.park-resorts.co.uk
The sites are generally a bit smaller than Haven sites, but they are very similar. I can recommend California Cliffs ; Cayton Bay or Ty Mawr ( 3 of their larger sites). I have went to California Cliffs last weekend ( It was only £79 for Fri- Mon on may day bank holiday weekend). There was very good entertainment at night and the club was not crowded.
Prices are much cheaper than Haven.
Forget Centre Parcs if you are on a budget. Its very pricey. I go regularly but get very cheap deals as my partner works for them. Its not worth the price in my opinion ( though it is very nice). Even nightime entertainment ( of the standard that is free at Haven, Butlins , park-resorts etc) costs extra.0 -
Many thanks - looks promising!!!!!!!!
What sort of standard accommodation is it - similar to Haven???????:wave: :rotfl: JRP0 -
Were you after one where all the entertainment is on site? Have you thought of a self catering or b&b cottage in the countryside - that way you could be near to all sorts of activities and yet also have a relaxing quiet time?Weight Loss - 102lb0

Yes accomadation is just like at Haven sites. Though unless you are going for a 12ft wide caravan don't pay extra for silver above bronze. I have been in both and found no discernable difference ( it all depends on the make of caravan ).
I had a bronze 2 bed last weekend and that had heating in bedrooms, microwave , separate freezer and fridge ( i suspect it was a silver caravan). But as i say its just pot luck with which caravan you are allocated.
With Park Resorts you always get bed linen and entertainment passes included ( unlike Haven that sometimes charge extra on their cheaper deals).0
