The Weather was better than Tenerife this weekend here. We stayed at 89 Lakeside Lodge which was a great location and I loved the View and outside BBQ overlooking the Lake. Our boys aged 5 & 8 had a Ball. The Pre Booked Activities were mostly very good.Some of them were cancelled or had very low numbers.The Sight is well... More

We have just come back from my stay at whinfell forest. We stayed in a 4 bed executive lodge for a midweek 4 night stay. It was fantastic we all loved it! I have an 18 month old and a 4 year old and we hired a trailer which they both fit into, they thought it was brilliant it! Then... More

Booked a large house as there were 6 adults, 3 children. House was great. Lovely kitchen, wine chiller, wifi, nice tv and DVD player. All you could need. Pool excellent - very busy. Bad points - take away pizza is stodgy. Er that's about it. I recommend it, we're certainly going back ASAP.

I am just back from a long weekend at whinfell and having been over 20 times before between whinfell and sherwood forest and having a brilliant time I am of the opinion that we just had bad luck this time with the accommodation we booked. The lakeside apartment was not nice. The fridge was filthy, the bed had a big... More

Very easy to book. Some of the descriptions of lodges are a little wrong, no hot tub or steam room in original executive lodges. Although there was nothing wrong with it. Lodges surrounded by lovely tall trees, pathways good. Prepare to walk a long way to get to the centre, although in nice weather it's lovely. Shops are expensive, best... More

Just returned from our 3rd visit to Whinfell. You cannot really get a better place to holiday if you have children. There is so much to do for them. The swimming pool was lovely and warm and the slides are great. The changing rooms have been renovated since our last visit and they are now lovely and clean. Our daughter... More

The whole concept if centerparcs is too keep you on site thus spending money. If you enjoy sports and activities and bottles if wine and barbecues in your verandah watching wildlife then this is the holiday for you however,if you like to explore the surrounding area or have late night parties and pub crawls then this may not suit you....

Stayed here as part of a hen weekend in March this year. We had amazing weather all weekend which helped us make the most out of what Centre Parcs has to offer. We did quite a few differnt activities, horse riding, cycling, spa, bowling and swimming.....all I enjoyed, although some activities can be expensive. Loved it so much I have... More

This for me is the best of all the Center Parcs. Seems to be more compact that the others but still has the same tried and tested formula. We stayed for a full 7 days and had several day trips out to the various parts of the Lake District. The same criticism does exist with regard to the supermarket costs... More
