Wales, Bluestone (Activity Holiday) Review

Overall Rating

Lodges decor excellent. Heating really good . Lagoon facilities excellent, though not cheap, to drink/eat there. Sports hall good also though again not cheap to eat there. Curry rice & chips £8.95 only chicken chunks & sauce( no onions/peppers/mushrooms) small Coffees x2 slush x2 £7.

Lodges echo as they have very high ceilings, floors in the wet room are really bad when the shower is used . I had hoped they would have solved this by our 2nd visit!! We had to use towels to mop the water up.Shower curtains perhaps to keep the water off the toilet/sink needed. More cupboard space needed in kitchen. Wall ones perhaps, there is space for them,and wouldn't spoil the look of the design.
We only had a short time for "the well" as the children were in the Rangers Club. The staff had to take us on a guided tour of the facilities first and this took too much time out of the 2 hrs we had before collecting them, as we had to wait for them to see to other guests first. Center Parcs have plaques outside each room explaining each experience . This would be more practical for guests with limited time,and if you had forgotten what each room did.

BLUESTONE br/>We have just returned from our 2nd break at B/Stone.Caldey lodge by the lake.
A great position , central to all the village has to offer though not for the lagoon.We have 2 children, and spent the majority of our time there.
Quite a trek up the hill, though the shuttle bus is reliable, and regular.
We had a meal in the Yard pizza was burnt underneath. Desserts lovely, recommend choc mousse, and coconut ice cream with pineapple sauce.
Party on the thursday - buffet was not value for money poor choice, not a good mix , meatballs very messy and didn't go with selection, of cold beef,prawns,potato salad,pot wedges,salad,cold pasta tubes,welsh cakes,barabrith and fruit slices,watermelon basket pretty .
Not enough food provided (plate of cheese rolls had gone before we got to them).

We will go back there again even though I have been negative about some of the things there, as it is a good holiday and good value for money and on our doorstep. Lovely surrondings,lodges look pretty when lit up in the night. I hope they don't plant too many trees,
