Sandford - Reviews

Nice site but not sure we will go back again, caravan very dated, windows & door not closing properly, leaving gaps. Oven seal not all in place & again leaving a huge gap so had to cook pizza for longer. Fire in lounge obviously been taken out, no thermostats on radiators so couldnt regulate individual radiators, so either had to have radiators on or off, temperature dropped at night but too hot with radiators on !!! Nice fish & chip shop on site, arcade was great, couldnt book general swim ???? kids soft play & activities were upstairs, no lift to be able to take a pushchair up there. Been to better Parkdean sites than this one.

Good , very spacious access

Dated . Caravan in shade most of the day.Could do with good deep clean.... sofa stained

Nice caravan, ok site .

Lovely holiday overall. Staff were friendly and helpful. Lounge carpet absolutely filthy but maintenance cleaned it immediately when I drew it to their attention. Unfortunately the pre-occupation check was poor. Pleasant setting, a short drive to beaches and sites of interest

The caravan we stayed in needed a bit of TLC - the table top was peeling back off the table. There were a few holes in the walls where the door had obviously been pushed back too far and the handle had gone through the wall. But it was comfortable, big enough for us. The only issue was ants coming in but that was rectified by the staff once we let them know.

We had such a lovely stay at the cottage! The location is perfect - really peaceful and relaxing, surrounded by gorgeous farml and. We loved seeing the horses and the owners were super friendly, making sure we had everything we needed. Definitely recommend it if you're after a quiet getaway, its fantastic!

Had an amazing week! The weather was perfect, lots to see and do. We loved it so much, we're returning soon! x

We loved the peaceful vibe here, perfect for a relaxing getaway. Hosts were friendly and helpful and the hot tub was just fantastic. Pets are welcome too!

Caravan had everything you needed. The twin rooms much bigger than most caravans we've stayed in. Everywhere was nice and clean. 2 toilets was a bonus with teenagers. Took us a while to work heating, in the double bedroom was a dial which we didn't realise at first. Soon got warm then.

We had a lovely stay! The house was super well equipped and kept us warm during that cold rainy December day. The bath was just perfect and the shower was nice and spacious. Being on a flight path didnt bother us at all-thats not a big deal. Perfect spot for dogs that dislike fireworks, since its quite remote. Really pretty and well-renovated place. Thanks a lot!

We had a really relaxing stay at this lovely place. The hot tub was fantastic and the setting was so peaceful. The hosts were friendly and welcoming. Perfect for anyone needing a break from the chaos. Highly recommend!

Very cosy place, had everything we could possibly need.

We stayed at a lovely cottage run by truly welcoming hosts. They were so helpful and friendly, making us feel right at home. The place itself is adorable, with charming half-timbered decor and a nice, powerful shower. The cosy kitchen and comfy bed made it perfect for relaxing. Parking right outside was a real bonus and the location is ideal for peaceful walks in the fields or exploring Thaxteds historic streets. Would definitely return!

We just got back from a week at Goddards Mead and honestly, it was lovely. The cottage had everything we needed and felt really cosy. The hosts were super friendly and even though its on a farm, its so peaceful - a proper escape!

Really enjoyed our stay here! The cottage is cosy and well-kept and the location is just perfect-peaceful but still close enough to explore easily. The owners are super friendly without being too hands-on, which we appreciated. The hot tub was a great bonus after a day out. Honestly, theyve got it just right! Would definitely recommend for a relaxing break.

Really enjoyed it, will buy again.

Really enjoyed our stay here, the place was charming and perfect for a relaxing weekend away. Would definitely return later in the year!

We stayed at Goddard's Mead recently and were really impressed. Rob, Sharon and Bonnie made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived, which was lovely. The building itself is beautifully restored, blending history with comfort perfectly. The location in Essex is perfect for exploring Thaxted and nearby villages-so many charming spots to wander around and soak up the history. Definitely recommend this place for a relaxing getaway!

We had a fantastic time! Sharon and Robert truly went out of their way to make us feel at home, which was much appreciated. The place was spotlessly clean, super comfy and perfect for Archie with secure grounds. The location was great, with plenty of lovely walks and charming villages nearby like Thaxted. Honestly, it was just what we needed to unwind and recharge. Would definitely come back!

We really appreciated how much thought had gone into the place. The hosts were super friendly and helpful, making our stay all the more enjoyable. Such a lovely spot-definitely booking again soon! Highly recommend it.

The owners were genuinely lovely and very welcoming. When the storm knocked out the power, they went above and beyond to help. The cottage was spotless, cosy and well-equipped. Our dog loved the secure garden and we enjoyed the hot tub too! Amazing stay!

Stayed for a weekend with my girls. Accommodation was clean through out, beds comfy, but could of done with a thinner quilt. Location perfect for beaches and Corfe. Will certainly be back

We had a lovely time! The only reason it’s a 9 not a 10 is because you’re limited to time in the pool. We had planned for a pool day as if abroad and we got an hour. Otherwise the facilities and park were lovely.

Great site plenty to do in and around the area. Lovely Lodge and a well kept clean site. ?

Had a great time at Sandford Holiday Park. We were there during the heat wave, so the outdoor pool was much needed and used! It is a lovely site, situated amongst trees and pines. Nice walks up through the woods and back even on the hottest days. The nearest beach was about a 10 minute drive away at Hamworthy, but it is worth it when you get there. A very quiet stretch of beach with just a few paddle-boarders in the water. Actually went for a swim in the sea (first time in about 30 years!). We had a really lovely holiday and I would give the site 10 out of 10.

The Staff made this holiday for us they were so friendly and helpful and nothing was too much for them they went up and beyond to help.Even to the staff on the ticket shop who was so nice to the children when they cashed the weeks tickets and asked them what colours they wanted.Every night the security staff would ask if we were o.k and chatted as we went into the show bar.When the children did activities they were encouraged which brought out the best in them.So can I thank all the staff at Sandford for a very happy and relaxing holiday.We certainly will come back.
