Charming reception, lovely holiday park, good mix of residents and short term visitors. The place had a 'cared for' feel with personality and the location was fantastic, lovely hearing the forest birds. River and swimming pool a bonus. Really enjoyed our retro cabin. Everything was fantastic, essentials available from reception though 'town' only few minutes drive. Surprised had to pay for warm shower ($1). Would definitely go back, would like to live there :)

The property was good, it was just the fact Expedia got my booking wrong so when i arrived instead of a 2 bed cabin i was given a 1 bed caravan so i asked to have the cabin and i was charged when it was no fault of my own, and Expedia didn't make it clear dogs couldn't go in cabins or caravans it just said pet friendly so again went all that way for a holiday to be expected to leave my dogs in the car, it needs to be added no dogs in facilities.

Close to Thames and very affordable. Sadly the Wotif payment hadn't gone through by the time I checked in at 4:30pm. Fortunately I had a copy of my Bank Account Statement showing when it was paid. This is not fair on the Park owners and their clients. Should have been paid by the earliest check-in time of 3pm. Lift your game Wotif.
