Our cabin was very dated and I would say the same for the showers and toilets. Although the staff were so friendly and the facilities in the park were great and well maintained. We were in the cheapest priced cabin (because we booked last minute and it was all that was left) so I understand they were the budget option but I really think they need to be refreshed, as I noticed the other cabins around us were clearly recently renovated. There was a lot of pot holes in the roads around the park that I think could be repaired also. I would stay here again and I would highly recommend for families as my son loved the pool and water park, and playgrounds.
