Just returned today from Primrose Valley and had a brilliant week, booked at Platinum 2 bed caravan and ended up being given a 3 bed which was excellant throughout, was in Linkfield Court which was really close to main funworks, staff and funstars brilliant, site lovely, some things are expensive but you don't have to spend the money if you don't want too, our kids were quite happy cycling around and going to the adventure playground, kids clubs and going swimming which doesn't cost anything extra, ate out at the Mash and Barrell a couple of times which compared to others wasn't expensive but cooked in our caravan the majority of the week. All in all haven holidays are only as expensive as you make them yourself, we had a brilliant time and more importantly the kids loved it. Would definately recommend.

23/8/10. just back from 7 nights at havens primrose valley, i'm quite easy to please but the wife isn't so i booked a 2 bedroom prestige van,£700 for the week. some people complaining about check in times but with prestige van we were able to check in at 2.30, no queues , no fuss. our van was in eskdale, probably the furthest away you could get from the main complex, about a mile, 15-20 minute walk. we took the car so no problems there. the van was immaculate and well furnished, kitchen / diner with integrated appliances, en-suite bathroom, central heating, flat screen tv / dvd player etc.

the swimming pools and parks are free, but you have to pay for all other rides / activities etc. the prices are actually cheaper than we would pay when the travelling fair comes to town, (dodgems £2, twister £2, go carts £5 5 mins etc, some cash some via tokens you buy) so not extortionate as some people claim, i'm not flash with my cash but neither do i go on holiday to save money!

food on site nice enough, nothing flash but does the job,not too expensive, the on -site spar is not as overpriced as i was lead to believe, but if you are that concerned just take a 5 minute drive to filey, you will pass a herron store, selling branded goods at special offer prices.

tried a meal at the plough which we passed on the way in, but uinfortuanately it was rather dissapointing, mis -matched chairs, dirty tables etc, but huge plates of food, cheap and nearly cheeful, but not the best to be honest.

if you want to watch the entertainemnt in jester's bar i suggest you get there early (6pm) as we arrived 6.15 twice and couldn't get a seat, super busy with kids all over, but that's the idea isn't it?

plenty of places to visit locally, scarborough 15 mins, whitby 30 mins, filey 5 mins. peasholm park is beautiful, with naval warfare displays (google it!!) and of course you have to try fish and chips at the seafront.

overall i / we can't fault the place, clean, tidy, friendly staff,immaculate toilet areas and pool areas, good security. jam packed of activities, bars really busy at night times but it was peak time, the entertainment is pretty low brow but it is aimed at kids, standard holiday park style. i would reccomend this place to friends and i wouldn't be frightened to go back myself either.

yes , as reported before the whole place is geared up to make money at every oportunity but nobody forces you to spend it, and if you can't entertain your kids without throwing money at them , well i would suggest that's your downfall, not that of a holiday park...........

me and my family have just got back from a 7 night stay at haven primrose valley and i can honestly say we had a fantastic time. first of all i have got to say that the staff and funstars members were the most helpfull people i have ever had on a holiday. second of all the food in the complex was great most of all we enjoyed the 'MASH AND BARRELL' and the chinese resteraunt which was also very nice, we did try papa johns pizza which was nice but it was a pizza what else can you say about a pizza though. i must add though that the chinese has nothing to do with HAVEN. thirdly about the cost of the place, well what can i say, the best way to describe the price is it is to suit a holiday complex. i myself drink gaymers cider and i couldnt really complain when i was paying about £2.80 a pint not when i can go to the local pubs and pay the same price. there is a fair ground on site which isnt the cheapest but it pays you to buy family tokens this consists of 50 tokens for £20 it works out that you get £5 worth of tokens free. the rides consist of, i trampoline with 4 places on it, dodgems, small tea cups, a simulation ride, a small train ride for the tots, and two other rides with i can only desribe as a childs ride which consists of helicopters and cars and busses which goes round and round and the other one is for old kids which also goes round and round but it is fast. the only thing that i could complain about about is that you have to pay for everything i.e, hire paddle boats on the lake the mini golf the slides, rope swings, archery, shooting you get the picture but even then i cant really complain because clearly tells you all of this on the web site, the fun works passes that you get include entrance into the arcades which is also where all the entertainment is based aswell as the two smimming pools, there is great little park in the middle of the grounds which my little ones loved. you will hear of people saying that they were miles away from the complex all i have to say to these people is lazy lazy and lazy the most you will have to walk is 5 min or so i know this because we were one of those people but even then there was a little carrige train that travells the main through road and stops at the main complex the park and the second smaller complex where the fair grond and second swimming pool is based it costs an adult 50p. the last thing i can add is about the caravan itself. we stayed in the 3 bed superior plus which we could not fault at all i was very impressed with the lay out of the whole thing and also the cleanliness was top notch the cleaners were just finishing off as we arrived and they were really heplpfull as well as they told me that the heating wasnt working but that was a simple matter of phoning the reception and they sent somone out straight away to change the gas bottles. be advisied though that the caravan can get cold trough the night which is why we took heaters just incase and it was a good job we did, also be warned though that if you do use any heaters on a night dong use the kettle at the same time as the kettle will use so mush power on top of the heaters power that the main trip swith will overload which means phoning the reception again but they are good at what they do as the electrician will come out within 5 to 10 min and put it baxk on for you. there is not much else i can tell you about primrose valley but i hope it is enough to help you all. happy holidays to all going

The caravan was great, for standard we expected a lot worse the staff were great and friendly, the whole place was clean the swimming pools were great, its a lovely walk to Filey along the beach plenty of places to take the kids, we all really enjoyed our holiday at Primrose Valley and look forward to going back next year.

Have been going to Primrose Valley for 3 years and have never had a bad holiday there. It is good value for money and extremely clean and well maintained with high profile security. The staff have always been friendly and helpful. The first year we went I just booked a cheap holiday as had two very small children and not much money. We got 'standard' caravan which was large comfortable and clean. It can be expensive to go if your not very good at saying 'no' to your kids, but the pools and park are free, the entertainment (even that which only involves the onsite staff) is always brilliant. Have tried other holidays since first going, but they are pretty poor in comparison.

The holiday was lovely. We had a great time from the minute we got there until we left. The whole week was fantastic.

Myself and my family enjoyed ourselves thoroughly on our stay at Primrose Valley and we will definitely be visiting again! Even though there was a few of us older ones as well, we enjoyed the entertainment, especially the party dances! All was very very good! We want to thank you all for the amazing holiday and hope to have the same on our visit next year!

We love primrose valley. Windsors family room is the best place to be with older children, and Jesters for the younger. The funstars are always in a good mood and provide a great experience and excellent entertainment. We usually go around July time, with our 15 and 17 year old children who meet new people and HATE coming home. I'd recommend Primrose Valley to anybody.

We have been going to the Haven Primrose Valley holiday park for the past 2 years, and we have had a fantastic time. My children, my husband and I have stayed in a 3 star caravan, which was great. It had no luxuries, but it was clean and everything worked. Last year we decided to go for GOLD. This was wonderful, and total luxury. We are going back this year and going gold again, but even if you were staying in a touring caravan or a tent you would have the best time in the world. Also, the staff are great, especially the Fun Starz. They get to know all, and I mean all the kids within a day or so, so it makes you feel more at ease that someone knows who the kids belong to.

Me and my friend go to Primrose Valley 4 times a year we love it. We have never had a bad experience that is why we go year after as we are certain we will have a brill time. Over the years we have got to know all the staff really well and they are all very friendly. Paul Robinson, Paul manning and Danny the lifeguards are such a good laugh.
