    A day park

    I only got to spend about two hours there, but the facilities in the day section are really limited, one swimming pool, a few jumping castles and expensive food for what you get.

    Excellent short break

    All the staff was very friendly and the camp manager swiftly dealt with some inconsiderate noisy campers.
