thuggy33's review of Haven Holidays, Hopton

“Haven Hopton Holiday Park ”

★★★★☆

written by thuggy33 on 02/10/2011

Just had a 4 night stay at Hopton, Now this is my very first holiday at a caravan site and wasn't expecting much, we used to holiday to the likes of florida, Bahamas etc so this was a huge change in our holiday direction. We now have two boys both under 3 years old so things have had to change including the cost of our holidays.

Firstly the PLUS points.
We booked a Prestige caraven through a private owner and was pleasently suprised on how clean and spacious the caravan was. Very well layed out and had everything you could possibly need. We were right next to the beach which was great but a little damp to say the least but it was the end of September but we had lovely weather all week it just got very damp every night being next to the sea.
The park itself was OK but a good few things were closed which was a shame. Had a few places to eat like a pub, fish & Chips, Pizza place etc.

The park was clean and seemed to be looked after and the indoor swimming pool was "OK"...

Now for the negatives,

Other than a couple of small play grounds and some evening entertainment for the kids there didn't seem much more for the kids to do, the outdoor swimming pool was closed for the winter, the "Crazy Golf" wasn't very good (not really thought out at all) plus you had to pay £3 a person, what ever you wanted to do you had to pay for it (except swimming) even then you had to wait until 09.30 before you could go in because the Caravan Owners had priority from 07.30 until 09.30 so an early swim was out of the question.
The drinks in the showbar were a little on the expensive side (as expected) and the food was again OK if you like that sort of stuff???!!! The only thing for the older kids to do was spend money in the Arcade of hire out karts of bikes again a cost.
The entertainment was OKish and my god was it loud, toooo loud for such a small room and again my god was it hot in there...???

Overall, as a place to stay in a caravan it was perfect if you intend to go out each day and visit the surrounding area but if you want to be entertained each night this might not be for you. I would give the site 7.5/10
