Best Haven you've been to

We've been to 4 Haven sites. Primrose Valley, Marton Mere, Cala Gran and Lakeland. We were told Hafan Y Mor was fantastic so had planned to go to that one next, but I've just had a look at the reviews on Trip Advisor and they're not that great.

Can any of you tell me the best one you've been to? So I can at least narrow it down lol

Thanking you in advance

Rockley Park in Poole is nice. We haven't been for 3 years but some family members own a caravan there and they like it.

Devon cliffs was good. There is one in hale too, its quiet but beautiful beaches.

Just left Craig Tara in Ayr!!
Second visit and not disappointed!!

I was going to say Nodes Point on IoW, but it is Hoseasons, so I won't.

Wild Duck was lovely, although smaller than some we've been to. We've also been to Lakeland and Cala Gran.

Thornick Bay was nice too from what I remember, although I'm struggling to picture it exactly, the area was lovely anyway, gorgeous beaches etc.

Been to Devon cliffs, rockley park and Craig tara when I was younger. All 3 were good from what I remember

Thank you all. We are in Scotland and my OH says Ayr isn't far enough away to be classed as a holiday Hmm will have a look at the others

I drove into hafany mor (to have a look) and turned around pleased we hadn’t booked!

Love green acres, go at least once a year and it’s perfect for a short break.

Have stayed in sea view and little sea in Weymouth and loved both. Sea view just edges it for location

Loved wild duck in Great Yarmouth

Wasn’t keen on haggerston, most people rave about it so maybe I was just unlucky but I wouldn’t go back!

Brendatheblender · 04/06/2018 18:27

Golden sands in Mablethorpe is nice.

Just got back from Primrose Valley and we have been put off Haven holidays for life!

Imfinehowareyou · 04/06/2018 18:27

Burnham on Sea in Somerset.

Mustbeoriginal38 · 04/06/2018 18:33

We've been to:

Blue Dolphin - caravan and camping. Loved it both times.

Lakeland - loved it too. It was the first Haven we went to. Would go back.

Doniford Bay in Somerset. A small site but probably my favourite.

Need to see if I can persuade OH to drive to Devon lol

Hafan y Mor is our local one so have been a few times. Great pool but not much else tbh, I wouldnt go back
Primrose Valley was dreadful but that was a good few years ago
Caister was OK, pool very basic but again a long time ago
Weymouth Bay was lovely, a quiet site but with a sister site just down the road and you could use facilities at both
Devon Cliffs was fantastic, been a few times and it really is the flagship[ park
My favourite is Thorpe Park, revisited last year and its wonderful

I went to Golden Sands last week and it was brilliant! Really v impressed.

I went to Wild Duck years ago and that was nice but small.

Middleoftheroad · 04/06/2018 22:57

Done Devon Cliffs, Perran Sands, Riviere Sands and Prestatyn.

Prestatyn, 12 years ago was dire. The Cornwall ones are nice but Devon Cliffs is far superior. It was lovely!
