Taking your own bikes to Center Parcs

Have you ever taken your own bikes to Center Parcs?

I haven't booked to hire them yet, and can't decide what to do. We cycle quite a lot at home, and have a child seat for DD and a tagalong for DS2 as well as bikes for me, Dh and DS1. We also have a bike rack for the car.

To hire bikes at CP will cost us £87. This seems silly when we have the exact same things at home.

However, we are staying at a Premier Inn on the way there and on the way back so would have to leave them there on the back of the car in the car park. We have locks, but am still not sure it would be safe.

WWYD?

I'd take the bikes because the bikes we had at Centre Parcs were rubbish. Why don't you ask at the Premier Inn if there is anywhere you could lock them away overnight?

Always take my own bikes, do not like the CP ones and especially do not like the cost.

Is there not some part of the car chassis and the tailgate you could lock the bikes to. I usually use multiple locks to lock them and the bike rack together and then lock this all to the towing loop on my car.

On one occasion had to take them off the bike rack to be able to lock them to the car but have always been able to lock them to the car.
