can be a bit pricy for bigger activities
sub tropical swimming paradise should open earlier!
Center Parcs Elveden is a brilliant place for a short break, although I do admit that you need to spend time choosing the best time of year to go for the price. We always go in May as we feel this is the cheapest time of the year for accommodation when the weather is reasonably good.
All the accommodation is good quality but after being 6 times now i can definatley say you should go for an executive villa if you can, as the condition of the villa is much better and each room has a bathroom with toilet, and in the 3 bed villas you get a great sauna.
The restaurants are generally good, the revolving la sapinere restaurant at the Lakeview Hotel is best, i would say the worst is Rajinda Pradesh. The forest is gorgeous and the lake is stunning especially when there's a mist.
Center Parcs is very leisurely and great for a morning walk and spot of golf but there is also a lot of activity to be had. The more in demand of these cost a lot of money but activities such as adventure golf are great value and fun. I would recommend the horse and carriage ride which is also great. The swimming pool is brilliant! i believe it should be open earlier than 10am but it's open late and is free, it's great fun for families.
Overall I think Elveden is fantastic, it offers great nature, activities and a leisurely short break.
I am going again in May for the 6th time and am looking forward to it!
