lacking personality organisation skill
The caravan was clean and tidy. The views around the park, including Sharkham Point, were awesome.
The evening entertainment has declined since last year! The new entertainment manager isn't impressing, and the new Stripeys lack the necessary personality and skills. I hope they improve, or I will not return.

the gold foxdown caravan was clean. it was well presented and had good facilities. a smart tv was a bonus.
finding the holiday camp was a real problem. i needed better direction instructions. it caused stress upon arrival. the footpaths to the coast were a sea of mud.

dirty shelves out-of-date food
The pool's cleanliness left something to be desired. The changing rooms desperately need an upgrade. The advertised breakfast was NOT what I expected. It was a bag of ingredients to cook myself. I felt completely fleeced. the shop's limited hours and out-of-date food items were really annoying. It seemed like nobody cared anymore. The overall experience was disappointing.
