allthejays's Review of Pontins, Southport
6th Nov 2009
Overall Rating
- Value for money
We stayed at Pontins Southport for a four night break over half term. Like quite a few people, after reading the reviews, we were very nervous about what our accommodation would be like (we booked a budget two bedroom apartment) and was dreading finding some of the horror apartments we read in the reviews. However, we were pleasantly surprised ~ although, our accommodation was basic, which is what we expected, the beds were in excellent condition (even the sofabed) and the apartment was clean and tidy with a good shower/bath and an oven and fridge that worked!
We only went to the club a couple of times in the evening as we spent a couple of evenings in Blackpool seeing the illuminations, but on the occasions we did, the entertainment was good and the drinks/food were reasonable.
The staff all seemed very friendly and helpful and the bluecoats still seemed quite upbeat for so late in the Season!
It's a very big site, it must be able to take about 3,000 at full capacity. There is a lovely beach a few minutes walk away, so it would be lovely in the summer.
I also heard someone say that Pontins are going to spend lots of money on refurbishing their sites, so the awful apartments might be nice in the future.
If we ever holiday in the North West again, we would definitely consider Pontins Southport as one of our options.

Center Parcs - Review - Centre Parcs Oasis Windfell Forest
Centre Parcs say that is was due to refurbishment, I beleive it was due to labour costs at this quiet time of the year. Albeit still great choice in the eating department.
