    I've been to Center Parcs 3 times and I really enjoy it, I never get bored of the evening entertainment and the spa was fantastic. The only problem with the spa is that you have to wait or queue to use some things like the foot spas and the water beds.It is true that the spas and swimming areas have a few things that don't work, but other than that I always find fun.My partner hates pools so we tend to spend more time on activities, entertainment and restaurants.They've unfortunately replaced ...

    Its a good place to go but has nothing on the Longleat/Sherwood resorts. I mean lets be fair here there isn't exactly anything to do there night after night is there, the pool is pathetic really, most of the jets dont work, the so called hot pools are cold, the main pool is cold. To be honest I am used to going to Longleat and getting some grade A services not some grade C services ok heres the lowdown.1. Italian restaurant - prices way to high, portions served about the same size as your averag ...

    Eco-friendly, safe, clean, choice of how you spend your day. Too good to be true. There are no bad points, nothing apart from breaks are too short.

    Overall Oasis Whinfell is a very nice place to have a relaxing weekend break, especially in the winter, just take a lot of money with you.

    We had had a bad experience recently with a different holiday company (not Center Parcs) so were very wary about our trip to Winfell Forest, or any holiday for that matter. We had actually booked to go to Sherwood forest but changed it to Winfell Forest after reading the reviews on this website. When we got to the site the staff were very helpful, the site was lovely and our accommodation (a 3 bedroom original style executive 2 storey lodge) was fantastic. It was warm, spotlessly clean, well fit ...

    I visited the Sherwood Center Parcs as a child and Oasis Whinfell was my first visit back to a Center Parcs for about 10 years. Being smaller back then I wasn't sure if the magic would be there now I'm older. However, it was!! there was so much to do, the pool was fantastic and I spent all day riding around the parc on my bike, just like the old days. Some people complain about it being expensive for extra activities, but if you plan it right it can be good fun and cheap as well. We did things l ...

    My Partner and I have been to the other Center Parcs before but not Whinfell, and as it was not originally built by Center Parcs we did not know what to expect. We booked ourselves into an executive lakeside apartment. When we arrived we were very pleased with the efficient check-in, good service at the bike hire, and the apartment was absolutely spotless! We were thrilled with the modern decor, and we never once heard any noise from our neighbours. The Swimming Paradise was just that! The po ...

    Having sampled our first taste of Centre Parcs in Longleat in May, we decided to try out the Whinfell one and have just returned. As an overview I have to say Longleat wins hands down and here's why. At Whinfell, the accommodation we stayed looked tired and in desperate need of a make over. The whole place was carpeted, not good with a baby who likes to experiment with throwing his cornflakes off his high chair! The decor and hair-dryers seemed like throwbacks from the 80s. The carpets smel ...

    As long as you have the money to spare, the park is great fun, the pool has fantastic rides, all the staff are friendly and the lodges are very comfy. This park also is close to Ullswater and Lake Windermere, which make great trips out.

    I have got a booking for the 9th May until 12th May, I would have booked a week in Tenerife if I new how expensive it was!!! But we are looking forward to it, after reading all these reviews about building work [when I have paid an extra £25.00 to be by the lake room 62 or 65?] then I would be very unhappy, this is a break for me and my boyfriend to get , does anybody no when they are finishing all building work?

    Bedrooms are like a hotel - plush bedding, flat screen tv in wall in master bedroom, new bathroom and shower room - spotless. Our kids went pony trekking - well worth the money and also spent 3 hrs at the club making masks and having fun. The girls got to visit the Aqua Sana for the Moonlight session - only £25 highly recommended it was great. This has also had some refurb - including water beds to relax on he he! Swimming pool amazing for all ages and abilities. The prices have gone up ...

    Can't understand the negative comments about Whinfell forest. We have been over ten times and will be going again! It certainly is not dirty, it is spotless! We have stayed in both the lodges and the executive apartments which were spotless. They are modern, clean and have everything you could want. The whole site is litter free and all accommodation top class. Book with confidence!

    I just got back today from a completely disasterous break at Whinfell. our first two visits there I couldn't have faulted, but this time they put is bang in the middle of a building site (they are re-furbing some of the lodges, cement mixers, lorrys, vans, dumper trucks etc all hurtling past the front door, mud everywhere, hammering, knocking, drilling (you get the idea!). Not a bit like the advert for peace and quiet. They also closed the road meaning about another mile on our walk to get to ...

    Was careful to choose a lodge near the car park so that we could escape the rush on the village roads. Were able to walk from the car park with our cases. A much better option than trying to drive. Having said that, Whinfell Forest Center Parc has improved - they now have numerous bays along the road so that if someone is unloading their car, you can still pass by easily. Our New Woodland Lodge was a vast improvement - exciting decor and comfortable furnishings. Although it was classed on t ...

    Center Parcs Oasis Whinfell is great for all ages. The accommodation is comfortable and clean. Getting around is easy and safe. My son is only a toddler and he loves the pool. Prices out of season and in term time are good value and there are some good discounts to be had if you keep your eyes open for them.
