We stayed four nights in a gold caravan. The caravan was really lovely, spacious and had a well equipped kitchen. The caravans are well spaced out, dont feel on top of one another. Ours had a huge window in the lounge area, which gave us lovely views of the surrounding hills. Plenty of parking near the caravans, you cant park beside them, but along the roads which weaves throughout the park, there was always a space which was great. Staff were very helpful and friendly. We used the swimming pool every day, however there is a brown smudge of grime and gunge on the tiles, all the way around the water line, it needs a good clean! The water is also extremely misty, Im not sure why! The life guard was very friendly and welcoming, and gave us a recommendation of a good fish and chip shop in nearby Bude - The Mermaid. I can confirm that the chips here were delicious! Its worth noting that if you want to swim, you have to book a time slot the day before. This ensures the pool doesnt get overcrowded, which was good. There is no WI-FI or mobile phone signal in the caravans. The only WI-FI is in the entertainment club house. This did affect us as I like to research places to go in an evening, and look for things to do each day, usually based on what the weather will do the following day! This wasnt possible and our teenage son found it very frustrating too! I do believe that being off screens is an excellent thing, but Im not sure no connection is suitable for us. The location of the park is pretty. However you need to drive as it would be a long way to walk down to the coast along the country roads, most of which have no pavements. There is a shop onsite, but its quite pricey, however there is a Morrisons, Sainsburys and a Lidl in Bude.

We had a great time overall. Facilities were good and the unit was clean. One recommendation would be for the mattresses to be changed though- these are quite old and become uncomfortable after a few days

Small bedroom door wouldn't shut due to size of bed over hanging, so you would catch your toe each time. Plastic strip on the door kept coming off, and we had to mend the bathroom blind. Oven took ages to cook and the control knob wasn't right so it was guess work. There was only 3 of us and we only just had enough room sat at the table, and the sofa.

Could do with better mattresses. For a gold caravan, I expect to be comfortable. Mattresses are very springy. When I say springy, I mean springs digging into you.

A holiday park I would not go to again. The caravan was good but not the surroundings. I would not go to a John Fowler park again. Parking inadequate. No service or WiFi unless you walk 200 yards to restaurant/clubhouse. Very disappointing overall.

Yes the accommodation could do with a refresh, but everything we needed we had , and all was working.Staff were friendly and always helpful, we stayed a week and went down for the entertainment most evenings, played bingo and kids made friends. The kids entertainment was good through the day and even my older 2 enjoyed things 11&13 year old. Food was good on site too and everything reasonably priced on site too. Would of been made better had the sun shone more, but overall the park was lovely.

It would have been nice to have WI-FI in the caravan. We finished up using 1 phone as a hotspot, to enable another phone or IPad to be used.

The caravan was hardly on the stones keeping it level when we reported it we got told someone would come and look which no one did. There was grease marks on the walls, the plates, bowls skirting boards were all disgustingly dirty. The sofa was filthy, missing clips on the windows and the caravan looked nothing like what we had booked. The entertainment staff are lovely however dont think much to the people flying round on the golf carts (keep an eye out as they fly past your caravan so if you open your door and they go past youd be knocked over). Theres plenty on site to do however theres not much in walking distance to do everywhere is a bit of a drive. Not had the best experience and dont plan on going back.

We stayed in a silver pet friendly caravan.Our caravan was immediately adjacent to the shop. Inside the caravan was pretty dismal, even for pet friendly standards. We wasnt expecting high standards but the sofa cushions were so badly stained we had to cover them with towels to sit on them. To us it was nothing a steam clean wouldnt fix.The bedding must be doused in starch when washed as the smell was so musty, we tried to spray with air freshener to cover it up.There was a dishwasher which we thought was amazing for a caravan, except you are only given one dishwasher tablet to be able to use it. For a short break youd think a couple of tablets wouldnt break Mr Fowlers bank.The oven looked like it didnt have a proper clean for months and was covered in grease and grime.I just think it says something when youre having to buy cleaning supplies to clean your holiday accommodation before settling in to use it.

Was expecting a slightly better caravan for a platinum level, it was what I would expect from a silver standard.

Caravan was well provided with utensils and kitchen products, nice little welcome pack to make a hot drink with before having to unpacklarge television in lounge and also a television in bedroom liked the ensuite which was a bonusOnly criticism was that the outside decking and railing could have done with a good clean

Caravan needed a good external clean and decked area jet wash, paths to caravans were muddy due to no drainage off the grassed banks, this problem won't go away unless dealt with ie land drains and ditches

We had a great time and caravan was quite adequate for us even if older in style. It was clean, good kitchen and bedrooms and bathroom were quite sufficient for us.
