This is a nice place. It is separated into different caravan parks (Beverley, Ashvale and Marine) with another site of lodges.
We stayed on Marine park which was nice because it was quiet. As we booked directly with Beverley Holidays, we had passes which could be used to access facilities on all of the sites. I think this was very good as the entertainment on Marine was just a small park. I'm not complaining, it was nice and quiet! However, it was nice to be able to use the other facilities. Altogether, there are a total of 5 swimming pools. 2 indoor and 3 outdoor. The indoor pools are really just one pool separated by a barrier with a small bit for kids. There is also a steam room, sauna and small spa. These are all included in the cost of the holiday. There is a small gym and a crazy golf course for which there is a small charge.
The Park itself is in a nice location only about 5 minutes walk from Goodrington Sands and Goodrington Steam Railway station. I would, however, not recommend the accommodation for those in wheelchairs as it is very hilly. Whichever direction you travel, there will be a steep hill to go up or down.
While the Park was nice, the pools were nice and the play areas for kids were well kept and safe, we were not impressed with the evening entertainment. If you enjoy bingo, kid's discos and modern club-type music then that's fine but, otherwise, I'd find something else to do in the evenings. Not that there is a lot unless travelling into Paignton.
There were not a lot of shops around and those on the site were very expensive. Also, while there was a laundry on the site, I still had to wash everything again when we got home and, while I made use of their tumble drier twice, our clothes were still wet so I would suggest taking extra clothes so you don't have to do any washing there!
The caravan was quite basic but was nice. Had a cooker, microwave, toaster, TV and Freeview and all the kitchen basics. Also, linen was included. It was a nice place to sleep and for the kids to play in the parks but it is preferable to go off the site for any entertainment!
Also, we had a full breakfast at Tides Restaurant on Ash Vale Park. It was OK but I have had better. The breakfast was about half the size I'd expect for the price and some of the food was cold. read more
