We are a group of six, which includes our DS aged 4 and DD aged 20 months, going to CP Whinfell in just over four weeks. We are super excited as we have never been to a CP resort before.
Just wondering what the latest 'gossip' is on the place (changes, building works, closures etc) and if anyone can answer a few of our questions etc.
- When is the swimming pool open? Hope to get there as close to 10am as possible though we know we cannot check-in to our accommodation until 3/3:30pm.
- Do they provide swimming vests for small children - my DD HATES being held in the water and wants to explore but armbands swamp her and she hasn't got the flexibility in her arms.
- How many slides are there and will my 'able-swimmer' DS be able to ride them?
- Is food available in the swimming complex without having to get changed etc. i.e. can we eat and sit in our swimming attire?
- Is there a time limit on pool use?
- What are the 'New-Style Executive' Lodges like? Where on the map are they? We have them pinpointed to Bilberry Wood but could be wrong.
- Is it feasible to BBQ? We are not adverse to BBQing in increment weather!
- What free stuff can we do? Activities etc. It is a minefield navigating the activity list.
- How busy does it really get? We are going Halloween weekend!!
10. Any other tips to avoid the disasters and rookie mistakes???
Thank You!!!
