Carlton Meres Holiday Park

Em va agradar: Really enjoyed our stay, loved the camping pod. It was very clean and tidy.

Staff were polite and friendly.

The facilities we used were good, we didnt join in with the bingo, kids dancing or activities but appeared the ones that were joining in found it fun.

The lakes on site were really nice to walk around and we was able to spot some bats at dusk which made my sons day.

No em va agradar: Didn't get much sleep the 2nd night due to the fire alarm battery going so kept beeping all night.

Staying with young child on my own, the toilets were too far to go to at night while he was asleep so unable to go to toilet. Would be better if there was another toilet closer to the lake view pods.

Arcade machines kept breaking down and there was rubbish everywhere in the arcade. There was no full time attendant so had to get the bar staff to help sort machines etc.

Em va agradar: Pod was cosy and clean, location was beautiful, on site staff were so friendly and helpful. Shop was also reasonably priced.

No em va agradar: The pod got very cold at night, which meant we had to keep the heater running - which then triggered the fire alarm! Loo's and shower block were also icy cold. Perhaps some form of heater in there would make them more attractive to use.

Em va agradar: The camping pod was warm and had most things that you need.
We loved visiting the swimming pool every day.

No em va agradar: Camping pod was full of cobwebs, which I'd have appreciated being dusted away.
Toilet block was a fair walk away and was of the temporary trailer type. One shower was out of order, but they were warm and worked well. It would have be edited from more regular cleaning.
Lifeguards allowed people to be too rowdy in the pool, which was difficult for our younger children.
People working on the holiday park sped around on their golf buggies, which was worrying with the chikdren.

Em va agradar: The camping pod was extremely clean, and bigger in real life than we expected. The view by the lake was beautiful and it was so peaceful. We could not hear other people from our pod. The swimming pool and arcades were great for the kids, we had no problem booking the swimming! The site itself is very clean and tidy, we have been to a lot of holiday parks and this was the best in terms of cleanliness.

No em va agradar: Food at the restaurant was very overpriced for the quality and our order was wrong every time we got our food. The shop on site is very basic!

Em va agradar: Fantastic site, we all had a wonderful time. The pods were lovely although a little warm so it is advisable to bring a fan with you as this is not supplied. There were two ponds for fishing ( you will need a permit to fish) a lovely play park for the kids to burn off some steam and a clubhouse. The pool was nice, you do need to book on arrival. And the gym was a good touch. Lovely site and loads areas to walk the dog aswel. Would definitely come back again.

No em va agradar: Down side to our trip which was a little out of the sites control was the mens toilets and showers were out of use. With the amount of pods they have it was difficult to share only 3 toilets with both men and women as often found there was a que.

Em va agradar: We stay in the pods which overlooked the lake perfect for those who want to do fishing, the pods were clean and spacious, they do get warm in the summer so take a fan. Water station is nearby toilet and shower block was nearby
I had a lovely little family break and will definitely return to this lovely little campsite

No em va agradar: Unfortunately when we stayed the men's toilets got blocked so they had to share the ladies, so often running out of toilet roll so just be aware and take your own,
food waiting time in the clubhouse was 40 minutes plus so if you have young children I suggest going early, they often only had one bar staff

Em va agradar: The camping pod was great plenary of space 4 plugs and 2 usb sockets.

No em va agradar: As a mature couple we were shocked to have been put in the middle of 3 pods of families that were together.
When I asked about moving I was told we’re full it’s school holidays isn’t it. I explained we had asked for a pod nearer the carpark for mobility reasons and that the 3 families had phoned and emailed asking to be together.
The reception knew nothing of this. So sadly we left the next day as it was too noisy and awkward.

Em va agradar: Great location, great entertainment. Great cozy pods.

No em va agradar: The beds had plastic on them which make sleeping a nightmare, sliding sheets and noisy.

Only one male cubical toilet was working at the time of our stay, currently, they have two cubical toilets, I don't think this is enough due to the amount of pods on the site so they need to upgrade the toilet/shower facilities a little more.
