Wonderful time here swimming with my baby. Pool was a lovely temperature there was enough space that even at a peek time we didnt feel too crowded.The lazy river was fantastic and one of our favourite things.The only reason for the lost star is that the family changing rooms need to be better signposted as you enter. Also they are still a bit on the tight side.

Fantastic for families. If you want to swim lengths I recommend you go at 12-1pm due to it being less busy.The rapids arnt as bad as you think and well worth trying. It was a shame that due to high winds they closed the Cyclone.

Myself my husband and two children aged 12 and 8 really enjoyed this place, there was something for everyone, multiple slides, different areas, lovely temp, outside rapids lovely to sit near water jets mid way and relax in the sun. Reasonable priced food available. Will defiantly be going back when we can.

Awesome place, great for all ages, always managed to find a seat (even in busier times), lifeguards are friendly and helpful, couple of places for food / coffee, Rapids / flumes / cyclones are all great fun

It was my first time here. We loved it. The adventure cove was brilliant for my two year old, and the flumes made it so much more interesting than your average swimming pool.

We loved it and kept coming back almost every day on our week stay. There are plenty of activities that are hard to do even in full day. Starting from kids area with paddling pool and themed water park, with both tiny slides for like 1 year old and mid size ones. There are whirlpools and wave pools, big slides for grownups and extreme water slide everyone will enjoy. We loved everything. On site lockers that work with your room bands is convenient too. Thats the one activity you shouldnt miss at center parcs.

A bit busy so its hard to go for a good swim, but the theming is beautiful and the water is a good temperature. Theres lots to see and it is free as part of your package when you stay at the park. Its a great bonus to the holiday.

What isnt there to like about this experience? Absolutely nothing! Im 61 years old and quite fit, this place was amazing for oldies like me and kiddies to the age of just a few months. It is just magnificent and its free if you are staying on site. Anybody who whinges about this wonderful venue must be a real saddo and needs to get a life very quickly. Well done Center Parcs for this ultimate piece of adventurous magic.

Not enough showers! We love this place but it didnt have enough showers already and theyve just removed ALL the private showers, but not added any extra despite obvious wall space for them. To have to queue in a cold room waiting to wash after swimming is a HUGE issue they seem to not care about at all. They expect thosands of people to use the subtropical paradise every day but we all share 12 showers total, are you kidding me? More like substandard paradise.

For a Centre Parcs pool its about average. Fairly decent size, a few rides and a decent rapids area. Downsides are that its not always warm and needs a clean. Also they didnt allow me to take my dreadnaught class boat in to the pool area. Sometimes we all fancy taking out some modern day pirates.

Review №14

Amazing centre parcs pool. It has the most amazing kids area with areas for toddlers to bigger kids. The main pool area is well equipped and looks great. The tropical cyclone slide is hair raising. Good all round

Excellent leisure pool, always busy and good to see continuous improvements, such as additional showers now in place and all the stonework renewed over the last year or so.

Love this place- so good for time away with family. Lots for all the family to do.

Review №17

The swimming pool and rides/flumes are all fantastic. Although there are hundreds of lockers there are no where near enough changing rooms. However a few minutes waiting does not subtract from a great swimming area that will keep you and the kids entertained for hours.

Though not as warm as I remember it, was still a fun and enjoyable experience with the little ones.

Wether you want an adrenaline fuelled water excursion or a relaxing swim, this place has something for you. I enjoyed all the slides as well as the lazy river and the highly coverted Cyclone! A really afternoon out!

Review №20

The pool changing rooms were a little dirty and there was only a few showers. Also the bar took forever and were incompetent. Except for that, we had a wonderful time!

Pa
Review №21

Great venue. Canopy bar is poor. We pay top dollar to come here in the school holidays and they do not invest this income into providing additional staff to meet demand. Waited ages for average food. When it did finally arrive the order was wrong. Its easy I vote with my feet. Changing facilities cannot cope with the high number of families.

Review №22

Centreparcs swimming area with kids zone, two flumes, cyclone ride and rapids. Good fun especially for the kids. Could do with being a tad warmer in ambient air temperature and the hot tubs sadly all only 35 degrees but keeps adults and children entertained for some hours as part of a break.

Plenty of fun things to do in this swimming purpose built building. Caters for all ages with catering onsite so you can stay all day if you have the energy.

This place is amazing, I love coming here. We spend most of the day there. So much for the kids to so, the kids pool is a lovely little area also. Waves come on often enough and the food is ok could do with a bit more to choose from.

Review №32

Fantastic swimming pools & plenty of other facilities to keep everyone entertained - flukes, slides & wave machine.Only opens at 10am which is a shame for those of us who would like an early morning swim, but is open until 9pm.Cafe is over-priced, but that comes as standard with Centre Parcs. £6 for 1 bottle of cider, nearly £9 for a burger & chips. The cider was fine (Bulmers always is), but the burger was tasteless & Ive had a bigger portion of chips from McDs 😕
