Apologies in advance, this is long review!
After seeing a report on my local news the other night I thought I would review the one thing that, over the last 5-6 years of my life has been a constant, come rain or shine, recession or boom we have visited and stayed at this particular place as our holiday home of choice.
The particular report I was referring to earlier, was the fact that out of all the poor companies in my local area (I live in the Midlands, we are one of the worst hit areas for redundancy?s), the caravan companies were flourishing.
Now as I have already stated, we (myself, my husband, my two children and various other members of my family, depending who is available on holiday week!), have stayed at this particular caravan site for a while.

Advantages: the farm and hot tub Disadvantages: people in our hot tub
I have just come back from a week in the Lakes and have decided to try and have a go at reviewing the place we stayed.
Solway HolidayPark is situated in Silloth Cumbria (about 22 miles west of Carlisle) which is small village with a population of around 3000.

It also has cafes and the odd take away along with some little shops and of course a Spar (everywhere seems to have a Spar). Near the green is amusements which also sells refreshments.

Advantages: Good family centre with lots of on-site facilities. Disadvantages: Not as good in the cold wet weather of UK
I have been to the wonderful Sandford Park in Poole, Dorset, three times now. I went twice when I was younger, with my dad and brother and then returned as an adult, in 2001, with my husband and our kids. My husbands mum and dad also came with us and I will base this review mainly on my experiences there in 2001.
##THE PARK##
Sandford Park is set in 64 acres of woodland, close to Purbeck Hills. They cater for all sorts of holidaymakers and their varying budgets.
They offer a variety of holiday homes there, which include one bedroom caravans that sleep 2-4, two bedroom caravans that sleep 4-6, three bedroom caravans that sleep 6-8, then the lodge style caravans that sleep either 4-6 or 6-8, depending on number of bedrooms. There is also space for holidaymakers with tents. We?re not really a camping sort of family so cannot ...
