Liked: Everything! We stayed in one of the cabans, it was stunning. Every single member of staff we met were really friendly. The weather wasn’t the best so we were grateful for the games room. The site is super clean and really well kept. Def my new fave place and our cockapoo Wilbur was spoilt rotten by the staff! We had everything we needed and more thankyou to Catherine and Adam and all the team we will def be back!
Disliked: Going home!

From the manager: Hi Paul
Thankyou so much for your review! It was great to welcome your family for a nice long stay but it still went so quickly! The weather was amazing so you saw Riverside in all its glory. Lovely to have your parents to stay in a glamping Caban too- hope the kids enjoyed the hot tub!
We hope to see you all again
