  • "Very expensive to stay and you're really crammed in."
  • "The park is really outdated for the price."
  • "It was expensive. It’s not good for older kids aged- 9/11/13 as it only had the swimming pool for them."
  • "It's peak season and we paid peak season price for the train and soft play not to be open on a Friday and Monday because of switch over."
  • "We was unimpressed with the 4:30pm Check in so you lose a whole day plus check out at 09:30 is too early."
  • "It might be early in the season but lots of things aren't open, despite the cost of the holiday."
