Gullivers Campsite. Reviews Summary

Accommodation

Pros:

• "We stayed in the log cabin which was spacious and comfortable for us and our grandsons."
• "The fairy den accommodation was small but comfortable and warm during a wet and windy weekend."
• "Cabin - clean, warm and well presented."
• "The beds in the tents were really comfortable & having the tent made up saved so much time."
• "We stayed in a lodge and had our own bathroom which was rather compact but this was fine for all ages."
• "We stayed in the Fairy Cabin and it was lovely. Beds comfy, cabin was clean and had everything we needed."
• "Pods were comfortable and safe."

Cons:

• "The pods are extremely small for 4 and the top double bunk doesn't have a safety rail."
• "Our bell tent had a couple holes which allowed the cold to enter during the night."
• "The camping pod was an ideal base for a couple of nights stay however a partially eaten sweet stuck to the shelf, a wrapper of some sorts stuck with what I can assume is dried food on the shelf, a good couple of weeks worth of dust, small empty plastic bags (god knows what was in them) left on the shelves… all of this right next to where my children would have laid their heads to sleep… just disgusting."
• "We booked a camper pitch which was fine as well as the small 'fairy den' cabin next to it - a bit pricey for what it was... could do with a revamp!"
• "Just to be aware the single pod beds (4-bed) are quite narrow and half covered by the double bed above."
• "Stayed in a bell tent which was covered in mould."
• "Unclean pod, with a lot of dust built up inside and sticky residue under the built in table within the pod."
