Center Parcs Reviews

I had visited centre parcs in various locations across the country as a child and remember it being absolutely brilliant! As an adult and parent myself years later we went camping to Wiltshire and visited Longleat and it poured down all week and we made a promise that next year we would go and stay at centre parcs! We rang up as we had a ...  Read the complete review

The first time I went to Center Parcs I was expecting something really naff along the lines of a cheesy Bultins holiday but I was completely surprised and had a great time. I visited the site in Sherwood Forest Village, Nottingham with family and friends. I would say you may struggle to get there unless you have car, public transport ...  Read the complete review

When i was a child my mum used to take us to sherwood forest 2 - 3 times a year, And we absolutly loved it, My mum especially. They are alot of activities to do what ever your age. Theres archery, clay pigeon shot, tennis, badmington and football to name but a few. They are also water activities such as pedalos, canoes and water ...  Read the complete review

I had visited centre Parcs a few times when i was younger with my mum and dad and quite frankly I thought it was the best place on earth. As a young girl your dream is to be in a place filled with fun things to do and surrounded by your family in the middle of the woods. Since growing up and having my own child i have visited Centre ...  Read the complete review

I went to the CenterParcs located at Sherwood Forest for a hen do. It was a lot better than I expected it to be. We rented 4 of the standard cabins which were nice, fairly clean (only one spider that we saw! I didn't go in that bedroom!) and within easy walking distance of all the amenities. One little gripe that we had was that, although we made ...  Read the complete review

I am fortunate enough to live around 20 minutes away from the Center Parcs I have visited around 3 or 4 times, Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire. I will section this review out into all of the different parts I have experienced. The Chalets- You can hire a bog standard chalet or go for a full blown luxury chalet ...  Read the complete review

I have just returned from Centre parcs - Whinfell. It is our third visit in 18 months. We were are party of 5 adults and 2 children (2 and 5). My son is 5 and has cerebral palsy and he loves the woods/ walks/ parks and swimming.

This is our last visit though as the accomodation was a disgrace. It was not just a bit dirty or scruffy it was disgusting! I could not let the kids play with toys on the carpet as it was too filthy. The beds and sheets smelt of sweat and urine.

The accomodation and swimming pool have gone downhill fast in the 18 months. Broken, dirty and nothing like they were! Gross!!!!!!

As a young couple unable to afford a holiday abroad this year we settled on a holiday at the Longleat Centerparcs. We booked into a one bed villa for a mid-week break (Monday to Friday). On arrival we checked in which was a very smooth process and we immediately drove our car to the villa in order to unpack. Once the car was unpacked my boyfriend ...  Read the complete review

went to whinefell july 09. Accomodation was dirty, restaurants over priced and altogether a complete rip off.... my 5 year old daughter was knocked over by a bike causing her much distress and has since had to have her 2 front teeth out. cp have offered us free bike hire on our next visit not that i will go back. there needs to be a safe walking area for pedestrians its dangerous.

I have visited Center Parcs Sherwood Forest in Nottingham once and Longleat Forest in Wiltshire twice and highly recommend both. My review below is mainly of Longleat as that is the one I've visited most recently. We have even booked to go back there in two months time. WHO IS IT FOR? I think everyone will find something of ...  Read the complete review

I am one of these funny people who can't really see the point in spending hundreds of pounds on a holiday when you are not even going to leave Britain, but a couple of weeks ago I was dragged to Center Parcs at Longleat Forest by my Girlfriend and her family. This review documents the experience. Center Parcs are basically forest ...  Read the complete review

I write this review as I get ready to pack for my week away - where I will sit in the relaxing surroundings of Center Parcs at Elveden Forest. We have been visiting Center Parcs for the last 20 years, both in the UK and abroad. Be warned, it is a long one....... Center Parcs are a holiday village company with 4 parcs in the UK - ...  Read the complete review

We went to Elvden Forest this year in June for 4 nights and stayed in a New Woodland Lodge suitable for dogs (so on the perimeter). We managed to get a money off code that meant we only paid around £440 for the 4 nights. Okay so we arrived at around 3ish which was the earliest that you could get into your accomodation and there was an ...  Read the complete review

Visited center parcs at Sherwood Forest for one week family holiday in July 09 - staff and facilities were not to be faulted. Every staff member we dealt with were friendly, helpful and very efficient. Parc facilities were clean and well mamintained alas same could not be said for our accommodation.
Lodge was smelly and suffering from damp, clothes got damp when hanging in wardrobe. Decor very tired and bathroon door did not shut properly -very disappointing with 5 people in the lodge.
Would recommend for staff and activities but seriously disappointed in quality of accomodation.

on the 11th of July 2009 my self and a friend attended a pamper day at longleat , all i can say is WOW the day from start to finish was amazing the staff were really friendly and very informative , the summer sensation treatment was wonderful and the relaxation area for after you treatment is a lovely added touch , the spa area it self with all the different rooms was enough in it self , unlimited use of towels and robes was great as they get wet easily from all the showering and swimming . the spa it self was extremely clean and although there were a lot of people using the facility not once did i feel it was crowded and the noise level was a minimum great for relaxing thanks to all the aqua sauna staff xx

I recently went on a weekend away at the sherwood forest resort and can I just say it was amazing!!!! All together there were four of us, we stayed in one of the new executive style lodges and it cost around £100 each from Friday to Monday. You will think is a lot of money but the lodge we stayed in was really good we had flat screen ...  Read the complete review

My family and I have been going to Centre Parcs now for about 8 years. We always go in the weeks just following Christmas as it is the cheapest and probably the quietest period of the year. I cannot give you exact prices as it varies from Park to Park from accomodation to accomodation and other circumstances. We go to Longleat and we ...  Read the complete review

Setting the scene: Couple in mid twenties, had a spare five days off, found a good deal to go and stay at Center Parcs Elveden forest so decided they'd buy some new tracksuits, embrace their inner child and have an active holiday. The accommodation: We stayed in the Lakeview Hotel. The room was clean, of average size ...  Read the complete review

We booked Center Parcs in Longleat for the 11th-15th May 2009, as I have been to the CP in Sherwood Forest when I was younger, and I wanted to try a different one out, plus I wanted to go to Longleat Safari Park. My husband, my 14 month daughter and I (23 weeks pregnant) went. We had a lovely time, 2 full days of sun, one day ...  Read the complete review

We have visited Center Parcs a number of times, and Sherwood Forest is our favourite. All of the resorts are VERY baby and toddler friendly, but we have found the pool at Sherwood to be the best, especially for toddlers, and I think its one of the less-hilly resorts, which means its not too much hard work to go for a nice long ...  Read the complete review
