We have just got back from a wonderful week in Owl Lodge 5 at Woodlands. We booked direct with the park in February saving £50 on Hoseasons published price.
Communication with the park was good and on arrival we were welcomed warmly and escorted by golf buggy to our lodge.
We unloaded the car (not parked directly outside but in a carpark a minute walk from the lodge) and switched on the heating. Within half an hour we were warm and drinking tea from our welcome pack.
The lodge was fresh, clean, warm and a great home for the next week. Without request, a travel cot, highchair and stairgate were already in the lodge for us to use which was a really nice (and safe) touch.
We booked a carvery for the following day and were very pleased. £60 for six of us including drinks and a more than ample serving each of roast dinner and pudding for four of us. All food was fresh and very appetising. We ate a further two times and both were fresh, tasty and reasonable including breakfast on the day of departure.
The hot tub at our lodge was perfect! The kids made the most of it- often going in twice a day. We enjoyed it in the evenings with a glass of wine in hand! The swimming pool was clean and not overcrowded (due to us arriving a week before half term) and the cost was included in the price of the cabin.
The park is situated close to Cromer, perfect for crabbing and sandcastles. The nearby beaches at Overstrand and Mundesley are beautiful. The Chinese takeaway in Mundesley (New Sage) is delicious!
The beds in the cabin could have done with an overhaul including new mattresses, mattress protectors, pillows and duvets as they were clearly old and tired. The bathrooms also needed a decent anti fungal clean up - black marks around seals is rather off putting and bath/shower mats would have been an idea.
Overall, we had a lovely holiday. The staff on the park were so friendly and couldn't do enough, they're also really geared up for children which really makes a difference.
We will definitely be back next year, perhaps this time with friends. Thank you Woodlands
