Beautiful, idyllic location. Only fault was the bed having wooden sides.. in such a small area (Caravan G) perhaps a soft-sided bed? We caught our chins on it x 10 LOL
Charming reception, lovely holiday park, good mix of residents and short term visitors. The place had a 'cared for' feel with personality and the location was fantastic, lovely hearing the forest birds. River and swimming pool a bonus. Really enjoyed our retro cabin. Everything was fantastic, essentials available from reception though 'town' only few minutes drive. Surprised had to pay for warm shower ($1). Would definitely go back, would like to live there :)

Nice area with native bush and birds. Comfy bed and nice outdoor deck with table and chairs. Kettle, toaster and crockery provided. But curtains were too small to cover windows properly.
Nice place in a camping. Kitchen was ok. I was in a dormitory in one of a three beds bunk. Not much space in between the beds. ++ A fridge in the room. - -Had to pay for the shower $1/5min. But free electricity and internet!!!!!
Bad smell in cabinet not curtain on. Door for

The property was good, it was just the fact Expedia got my booking wrong so when i arrived instead of a 2 bed cabin i was given a 1 bed caravan so i asked to have the cabin and i was charged when it was no fault of my own, and Expedia didn't make it clear dogs couldn't go in cabins or caravans it just said pet friendly so again went all that way for a holiday to be expected to leave my dogs in the car, it needs to be added no dogs in facilities.
Close to Thames and very affordable. Sadly the Wotif payment hadn't gone through by the time I checked in at 4:30pm. Fortunately I had a copy of my Bank Account Statement showing when it was paid. This is not fair on the Park owners and their clients. Should have been paid by the earliest check-in time of 3pm.
Lift your game Wotif.
Caro, comparado con otros campings. La cama incomodísima, la cocina terrible y ducha de agua caliente, pago de dolar aparte.
Tampoco el sitio donde está tiene nada.
Bueno, que tiene piscina, pero llena de niños.
No volveria.
