A lovely quiet atmosphere and the feel of the family holidays I had as a kid. Can’t wait to go back.

Property was listed as having a queen bed, 2 singles and a queen sofa bed. What it actually had was a queen bed (which was comfy, clean, enough blankets, all good), a sofa bed which wasn’t great to sleep on, and one small thin mattress over a slab of wood basically which was meant to be one of the single beds, and no second single bed. My sister had the worst first night’s sleep and almost went and booked a room elsewhere for the second night. We actually thought we’d booked into a retro themed caravan park however it’s a regular one with some of them painted and named along the retro theme which did look a lot older than the pictures.
If it was just the 2 of us staying it would have been fine for a budget accommodation. I’d say comfortably it slept 2 who are happy to bunk together in the queen bed, definitely not the 6 it claimed on the listing. Heating was nice and warm. Water was clean and they were fine letting us check out an hour later. Guests tended to hog the entire communal bathroom in the mornings to do their hair and makeup so take that into consideration when planning your shower. Not sure why they wouldn’t just do that back in their caravan 😅
Don’t use the claw machine in the games room, the claw isn’t strong enough to bother.
Main issue though was the extra beds. If just for 2 ppl it would have been fine. Easy drive to the hot springs and Sorrento.
