5.0/10

My stay was quite a mix. While the staff was friendly and the bathrooms were clean, the kitchen closures were inconvenient, and the cabin we stayed in had several issues including cleanliness and inadequate furniture. Overall, it felt like the park could improve its facilities for a better guest experience.

I had a mixed experience at this park. On one hand, the pitches were spacious, and I enjoyed the scenic views nearby. On the other hand, the amenities were lacking in cleanliness at times, and it was frustrating to deal with noisy neighbors and limited resources for washing. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it for the price we paid.

I had a mixed experience during my stay. On one hand, the quietness and stunning mountain views were truly relaxing. The kitchen and laundry facilities were handy, but I was frustrated by the inconvenient closure times and the overall outdated feel of the accommodations. I definitely appreciated the tranquility, but there were several issues that took away from the experience.

We had a mixed experience during our stay. The cabin we booked was clean and well-equipped, perfect for our family. However, the service could definitely use some improvement, especially with housekeeping and staff friendliness. It's a decent choice for a camping ground, but there are aspects that could enhance the overall experience.

6.8/10

I had high hopes for this Top 10 venue, but it felt like it was in need of some serious TLC. The pitch was almost level with working electricity, which I appreciated, but the shower facilities were quite disappointing. On the flip side, my family enjoyed a fantastic stay in a cabin that was well-appointed and had everything we needed for comfort. Overall, it was a mixed experience, with some strong positives and notable downsides.
