This was the last season for this particular venue - the site is to close to the public from early 2025 to provide accommodation for 500 workers constructing the Sizewell C nuclear power station. The accommodation was a little 'tired' however the staff worked hard to ensure we had a good stay.

DON'T BOTHER !!!

Booked an overnight stay before a music festival at the site, we were told dinner and breakfast were included. When we got there, nothing !! The restaurant , 2 bars and even the shop were shut. So we were stranded in the middle of nowhere with nothing to eat or drink. £11 each way in a taxi just to have some tea. Disgusting. Do not bother. No wonder they are closing down 👇

NEEDS UPDATING IT WAS LIKE GOING BACK TO 50's OLD AND DIRTY APPARENTLY THE HOUSEKEEPER ONLY HAS 25 MINUTES TO CLEAN AND MAKE UP BEDS, BEING A HOUSEKEEPER MYSELF THIS DOES NOT GIVE THEM TIME TO DO THE EXTRAS LIKE SKIRTING BOARDS ETC. THE STAFF WAS FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL AND THE FOOD WAS COOKED BRILLIANTLY AND SO MUCH TO CHOOSE FROM, WE HAD A LOVELY WEEKEND AND WOULD GO BACK AGAIN.

Never again

ROOM :- floor dirty, bath only for 3 year olds to use as can’t fit an adult in it, shower cold or to hot, no in between, bed mattress was made of plastic and so uncomfortable we left after 2 days, couldn’t stay there a single day longer. ENTERTAINMENT:- not to bad as it gos, bingo and live entertainment was good so can’t complain there. STAFF:- nice people and always there to help. FOOD:- breakfast was terrible, bacon looked like it was from the day before, didn’t taist good, Dinner was different everyday and to be fair wasn’t that bad, fish and chips and pork belly was decent. POOL:- bloody freezing. WI-FI:- only in club house NO PHONE SIGNAL AT ALL IN ROOMS, normally this isn’t a problem but we needed to keep in contact with the kids so had to keep going to the cliff edge just to get signal. OVERALL:- if your an oap and don’t mind plastic beds and bad food then this is the place for you
