Decided to try an individual park as opposed to the usual Park Resorts, Parkdean etc .... swimming pool and splash park are faultless, entertainment was ok, plenty of seating, air conditioning etc, but on two nights the caberet failed to appear with no back up plan in force. Jade kebab shop was run by what looked like 16 year old lads as was the chip shop, food was swimming in grease and inedible, pizza outlet along with seafood shop were faultless restaurant we didn't try out.

Written on: 13/08/2010
IF YOU HAVE A TOURER YOU NEED TO READ THIS. On arrival we were very concerned about the size of the pitches. We have a large caravan and consequently a large vehicle to pull it. The pitches are very very small. We were sited up a very narrow road onto such a tiny pitch our back window was in the bush and the jockey wheel on the road. We asked for a more suitable pitch but could only be offered a pitch that we were at that time able to pull in and park sideways on,there are no better... (read more)

“nice clean caravan. ”
Written on: 09/08/2010
nice clean caravan.
The site gives the impression that it is child friendly but a closer look reveals that it is not.Staf in Louie den were fantastic and play area was good.Not quite sure why there is a Louie and Lola as they do nothing except a march round the room and a £6 photo at the end of it.
The main entertainment compare does not like children very much I am sure, he does not have enough patience and his jokes are not anything that a child can relate to,at one point I found him rude...

Written on: 08/08/2010
We have stayed at Vauxhall Holiday Park about 15 times now and each time it is a good as the last. We stay Bed and Breakfast and the dogs love it too. We stay in the pet zone as most of the camp is no dogs allowed. It's a good set up - breakfast is delivered by staff between 7 and 9:30 mon-fri but you have to ask for it as it is not advertised. Anyway, overall 8/10. (read more)

Written on: 27/07/2010
I have just coe back from a 1 week stay at VHP. Everything was as expected and we had a really good time. The food was above average and my brother and i liked Jade Kebabs and shellfish. The only thing we were upset about was that 'twinspin' was no longer offered - Charlie and I really liked that, but otherwise, 9/10! Give it a try!

Well were do I begin.......just had a week at Vauxhall which felt like a year. Stayed in a touring van which was no problem. Complained about the ladies showers being far to hot unusable would not even dream of putting my 3 year old in them. I agree with other reviews Reedcutters food very poor. I have never written a review before but feel that people should really think twice about this complex if you are looking to entertain your children. The family room entertainment was disgraceful I... (read more)

Written on: 26/06/2010
Just come from a weeks holiday at the Vauxhall Holiday Park in Great Yarmouth, it was the first time i've been to Great Yarmouth and I can honestly say that this has been the best holiday I have been on. There is lots of things to do in both the park and Great Yarmouth. In the park itself it has an Ocean Fish and Chips where I went on the first night, the chips weren't that great but the other food places were good quality.
The entertainment is great in both the V Lounge and Regency room it...

Only been to Haven parks before this one and wow what a difference! The staff are friendly, check in is simple, no queueing just get your keys from reception. If you arrive before the caravan is ready you can still park your car next to it if you want.
We had the cheapest option of 8 berth van and besides it being a bit old it was clean and well kept.
The park itself has excellent facilities for all ages and unlike Haven you do no have to walk through the amusment arcade to get to the...

Stayed in our own tourer, plenty of water and elsan points, very clean site. Plenty to do for all the family, especially the kids. Swimming the best onsite pool I have been to. Evening entertainment excellent, kept my 7 and 10 year old both amused as well as us. Carefully planned i.e no need to go through the shops, amusments with the kids if you dont want to. We went out of school holidays, so it was not too crowded, may have a different atmosphere in the holidays. Plenty of take away... (read more)

i have been to vauxhall numerous times and have to agree with earlier comments that the entertainment is not what it once was
Found the staff at Reedcutters restaurant a bit surly especially the manageress who is downright ignorant
the food is a bit bland but have to say I did enjoy the carvery and would recomend it
drinks are a bit expensive and bar staff not very friendly
but the accomadation was very clean

Written on: 01/06/2010
We had a fantastic holiday and cant wait to go back. The swimming pool for toddlers was wonderful and my daughter loved the slide and playing with her new friends while we sat back on the chairs around the pool and chilled out. The staff were friendly and chatty and couldnt be faulted. The only negative would be the proximity to the A47 which can be noisy, however you dont really notice this after a while. (read more)

Have just spent a week with 2 teenage children 14 and 16. at Vauxhall Holiday Park, Great YArmouth. Caravan Swan was a good size a little worn but very clean, it was near to everything, the main road was a little grating but did not stop us sleeping. Was dissapointed with the outside pool very small and we did go out each day as the kids were bored. Variety of food was good but things opened up late. would not go back without taking friends for the kids.

Been to Vauxhall several times but it seems to be getting worse year on year rather than improving and this year will probably be the last time we visit and will look elsewhere next year. Have to agree with some earlier comments regarding the rudeness and appearance of staff, the entertainment at vauxhall used to be first class and is still pretty good, but it's not what it was, some of the acts are very poor compared to previous years, the entertainments team are a mess these days (they...

I went to vauxhall holiday park in Great Yarmouth for 3 nights with my other half, camping in a tent. It cost us £60.00 for the three days. I really enjoyed myself. I think that the only two bad things about the park is that some of the reedcutters resturant staff are rude, and also i think that the price of drinks is way to expensive. It is like £4.00 a pint. I really enjoyed the arcade and was impressed at how big it was. I also was impressed by the enterainment. The food at reedcutters... (read more)

It is the forth time having been to vauxhall holiday park, we have been every year, just coming back yesterday, we thought the staff within the food bars was very very rude and worked very unhygenically. The entertainment in the regency room (for all ages) was very poor compared to recent years...good for kids but not for adults. There is a starlight club next door which is for over 18's only but as a family, u cannot leave your kids whilst you go have fun. There is a strict spped limit for... (read more)

This centre is a must for anyone, honestly!
As I hadn't heard of it before, I wasn't expecting too much to be honest so was amazed to find the site massive and beautifully kept, freshly painted etc.
You can choose from a range of accommodation (all caravans with a few apartments) to suit every family, with a range of budgets. Our was gorgeous and spotless and close to facilities.
The family entertainment is second to none. The quality and speed with which they get things going in there is...

I've visited Vauxhall Holiday Park many times before and I thought that it was time to write a review to let other people know how fantastic this place actually is!
This privately owned holiday park is situated on the left of Acle New Road as you approach Great Yarmouth and you can't miss it!
The park is about a 5 minute car ride to the town and about a 15 minute walk depending on your pace.
As you drive into the park you immediately leave behind the real world and enter the holiday world!...

Having driven past the Vauxhall Holiday Park so many times we decided to try a holiday here. On arrival our check in was before time, polite and hassle free. Our caravan had been allocated on booking so we knew where it was and it was lovely, clean today and even had some special touches such as tea, coffee, milk, sugar and toilet roll.
By day there was so much to do on the park - we especially liked the adventure golf and swimming pools. By night we spent the evenings in the regency room,...
