We have just come back from Sheila’s chalet we stayed there a week and had a lovely stay. The chalet truly felt like a home away from home. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. It was spacious enough for our family of five and is located in a quiet part of the holiday park. Sheila was very easy to communicate with throughout our stay.Our only small disappointment was that the swimming pool sessions were limited to just 50 minutes, but that is the holiday park’s policy rather than anything to do with the chalet itself.We would happily stay there again.Thank you Sheila!

Great little place to stay

We had a great Easter holiday at the place. The Lodge was lovely, nice and tidy and perfect for our family. The rest of the place was great, with lots of things for adults and kids to do. There's great long walks by the sea that are just down the road, as well as some good pubs with great food.
