I have worked there and I have taken the kids there to the beach

The beach is lovely although you have to climb down some steep steps to get there.

The holiday camp is typical, loads of arcades, bars and fast food outlets. I really don't know if it is loud and busy but I do know there are literally hundreds of caravans on that place all pretty close to each other.

My guess is a Caravan there would be better for a young family rather than a middle aged couple.

IMHO there are loads of better places, quieter and more spacious around the Norfolk/Suffolk coast

My parents ahve a static here User Posted Link although you can't sub-let your caravan and the ground rent is quite expensive. There are other parks around the Belton area User Posted Link and User Posted Link

Too many words but I hope it helps a little
