Havens holiday parks > Reviews

Advantages: plenty to do for all the family
Disadvantages: keep away from the amusements

I recently went to Haven in Ayr for the weekend. I have been nefore and the park I chose is called Craig Tara which is an all action park, this means that there is loads to do and it gets pretty busy so not recommended for a quiet break. My hubby and I were fed up and needed a holiday so I looked them up on the website WWW.havenholidays.co.uk and found the bargain break section and phoned them up. The salesman was very helpful but all the week ... Read review

Advantages: Excellent for the kids
Disadvantages: Park was quite hilly

In May we went to Havens Warmwell holiday park, near Weymouth, for a midweek break (mon-fri). At Warmwell all the accommodation is in lodges. We had no idea what to expect as we've never been on a holiday like this before (my hubby is strictly an abroad man!). We've got 2 children so really needed a lodge with 3 bedrooms. To get a silver lodge with 3 rooms it cost us £126. You get discounts for children under 5 (£10 for a midweek break and £20 for ... Read review

Advantages: Loads to Do, Lovely Caravans

This year we went to the Devon Cliffs Haven Holiday park for a week holiday. We stayed in a Bronze Caravan which cost around £600 for a week, this included Entertainment passes for clubs and swimming pool, and linen. The Caravan Our Caravan was very nice. As you walked in there was a lounge area which had a television, large table sofa all the way round and a gas fire. With no door, the lounge lead on to the kitchen which included a full size ...

Having a group of teenagers on my hands, when I am looking for a holiday I need somewhere that can entertain my picky brood, whatever the weather. I need something for them to do, rain or shine and by 'them' I also include my hubby who I think has more child in him than the rest of them put together. Well we have just returned from a week at Golden Sands Mablethorpe, one of Haven's All action Parks. The weather was good the sea air exhilarating, ... Read review

Myself and my family went on holiday last September to Haven Holiday Park - Wild Duck. Which is located about approx 10-15 miles away from Great Yarmouth. This not not one of the big Havens, but is a very friendly and had everything we wanted. We did not stay in one of their holiday homes or chalets we went camping in our tent. As we were going just as the school holidays had finished, the 1st week in September, we were only charged £23 for 5 nights. ... Read review

Advantages: Great for the kids
Disadvantages: The good old british weather

Having not been on holiday as a family since the long age age of 1996, we decided that this year we would go away come hell or high water. Of course money is tight and so we decided to book a Haven Holiday, if nothing else our two little monsters would enjoy it. I went to the British Holidays website and had a look through the holidays on offer and enlisted the help of 10-year-old Zoe to decide which park which should go to. After reviewing ... Read review

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Cheap

This report was either unworthy so I delete it in preparation for deleting my entire account, or alternatively it contained too many personal details, which in the light of the abuse on this site, I deemed too risky to leave for yobs to make use of. See community profile for the 49 (or will it be more) unhelpfuls used as spoiling ratings. Not that I complain, as I got stuck into these nonentities first, likewise (I got my retaliation in first, ... Read review

This time all year is when we start thinking about booking our family holidays, and for many years while my children were small we used to spend our holiday with Haven, as I was a single parent and needed to get the cheapest deal possible, with the entertainment included in the price. Haven has parks located throughout England, Scotland and Wales. I have stayed at a few of their parks, such as Caister (Norfolk), Seaview (Dorest), littlesea (Dorset). ... Read review

Advantages: cheap and great entertainment for kids
Disadvantages: park a bit bland

We selected Haven Park at Golden Sands, Mablethorpe as the venue for the first week of our annual holiday. We wanted something a bit different for our holiday, and looked at a variety of venues. We chose Haven because of the price; it was a lot cheaper than Butlins, Centreparks and the like. And we chose Mablethorpe because of its proximity to the beach, and the fact that it was en route to the second week of our holiday in Kent. We also got a good ... Read review

Advantages: Good facilities.
Disadvantages: Parks vary.

We have now been to three Haven holiday parks and have been pleased was all three sites. Here are our opinions of each one: Filey. (Yorkshire coast) Reighton Sands (between Bridlington and Filey) is the best Haven Holiday Park we have been to so far. The park has a mixture of caravans and chalets and we stayed in one of the three bedroom chalets. This chalet was not too small and had all the self-catering requirements we needed, including ...

Advantages: colour photos and lots of information
Disadvantages: none

As the school holidays draw nearer my husband and I felt we needed a break and decided to go on-line to see if we could find any short breaks in Scotland over the Easter weekend. We looked at various sites but couldn't find anything that caught our eye, then purely by chance we stumbled across the Haven Holiday's site. This is a very well laid out site. You are given a choice of which part of the country you would like to look at. Once you ... Read review
