Visitor Reviews of Oakdene Forest

vanessa & richard
we read a lot of reviews of the site before we wnet and agree with many of the positives. it is great having an outdoor pool, there is loads for children to do, the views are amazing and the lodges are nice and big. The kitchen had everything we wanted and our children liked that it had a dvd player. We had a couple of rainy days but you have to expect that if you dont go abroad. There was still plenty to do.

Date of stay: 27th July 2020
The Supreme 2 caravan is a very good design with the 2 bedrooms at either end of the caravan and both had en-suite bathrooms. Also, the bathrooms were a bit bigger than you normally get in a caravan and not too cramped.

Date of stay: 27th July 2020
The caravan was very nice and clean. Well done to the cleaning staff.

The caravan was fabulous, much improved from when I was a kid, with L- shaped sofa, microwave, and full cooking facilities. There was every piece of equipment in the drawers you would of needed there. Shower was great, nice pressure and hot water . Spacious bedrooms with en suite facilities. Perfect

Great memories created!!
Andrew, Egham
Date of stay: 21st February 2020
Only mark down on cleanliness is that the caravan was clearly a dog friendly one and had a smell of dog ingrained in carpet. Got used to it after a couple of days.
Amanda, Luton
Date of stay: 21st February 2020
Couldnt beleive the high standard of caravan .
Philip, Cardiff
Date of stay: 21st February 2020
It is a nice but small site. The noise from the entertainment can be heard in the caravans closest to the centre. The entertainment in the bar could have been better for the kids

John, Bransgore
Date of stay: 21st February 2020
We had a very enjoyable holiday over the Feb half term. The caravan was modern and very clean, the whole site was clean and well maintained (including gym and pool). The restaurant served good food and was served promptly. Considering being half term the cost was very cheap and would definitely consider going there again.
