Just come back from bank holiday weekend at Sand le mere. What a fantastic time was had. The park is amazing, very clean and tidy. Van was spotless and very comfortable with everything you need. Complex is huge, lots of things to do. Plenty of activities throughout the day. Segways, pottery, sand art you name it we could do it. All activity staff lovely and polite. A big shout out to the evening entertainmentteam, josh, Emily, lewis, Katie and shantelle. They didn’t stop all weekend but I must say a huge shout out to lewis Katie and shantelle the shows you put on we’re out of this world. Top class. To put 2 shows on in one night absolutely brilliant. West end live was my favourite. Well done to each and everyone of you.

Carly Turner said...

We visited Dovercourt for Mother’s Day weekend and had the most wonderful time. All the staff were so friendly and helpful but I must give a special mention to the activities team and in particular Dan for giving my children the best experience on the climbing wall, Kelly & Anna for the fantastic pottery painting session and Conor for the Segways, however every time we visited the activity centre they really did go above and beyond! The entertainment team were great too and Gethin was just fabulous on our last evening.
