- Advice: Take as much food and snacks with you - there is a very well stocked supermarket, but with no promotional offers this is expensive.

Our three children (6, 11 and 12) had a really wonderful time at Center Parcs Sherwood Forest. The Accomodation was squeaky clean and in all 'areas/departments' the staff were fantastic, but especially the outdoor activities team. Activities are a bit on the steep side but the children thoroughly enjoyed everything. All three voted Archery their favorite, leaving Quad Bikes in close second. The quality of the catering is very-good-to-excellent, but a bit on the expensive side. We will be returning to this venue within the next 12 months - the children have all said that they would prefer this to Disneyland Paris.
- Advice: Plan your activities in advance.

Just got back yesterday after the most fabulous stay in a treehouse in CP Notts. One word AWESOME. They are not cheap but I have to say worth every penny. 7 of us stayed. 3 17yr olds and 2 11 year olds. The place is huge. The hot tub was sooo hot. And as for the games room they had thought of everything. YOu could probably get a week in spain for the price of 4 nights in CP in one of these Tree house but trust me you will be talking about this place long after the memories of sun and sand have faded.

We've just returned from a mid-week break at centre parcs sherwood forest and have had a fab time. This was our second visit there and would thoroughly recommend it (we've also stayed at elvedon but prefer sherwood). This is the first time that we have booked a couple of activiites to do with our three year old son and they were great too. There is so much to do or you can just chill out in your cabin making the most of the peace in the woods and the views and wildlife around your back door. Would thoroughly recommend it! Two tips though - 1) do take lots of your own food with you and just use the on-site supermarket for top-ups of essentials and treats only because you'll spend a fortune otherwise, anbd 2) when you are booking - its worth checking availability and prices of a three bed villa even if you only need two bedrooms as sometimes they work out cheaper depending on the deals available at the time you want to go.

I go to center parcs frequently and always enjoy our stay, we have been going for years.
This is the perfect family holiday and is suitable for every type of person whether relaxing or activity filled.
A bit expensive but worth every penny.
- Advice: Make the most out of the dome, a night swim is lovely.

Center Parcs, Sherwood...Doesn't matter what the weather is like there's always plenty to do, although some activities are a little expensive. Villas are set out really well but I can't imagine why you'd need any more than an executive villa?! Daily housekeeping means it was always clean, towels included makes it a few less things to pack and cuts down on the washing when you return home. The Aqua Sana was a wonderful treat and a great place to escape from it all! The pool is great and definatly a favourite with the children although the changing areas could be better. The shop on site was v well stocked with lots of fresh fruit veg and bread, a little expensive but not overboard! Eating out is no more expensive than anywhere else, generally mains were £8ish and there were some good deals on, sometimes kids eating free!!
Overall... Brilliant family holiday, can't wait to return!!
- Advice: Mum's you MUST visit the Aqua Sana...you deserve it!!

Stayed for the weekend on March 25th and the villa was dirty, grubby and rundown. Blocked sinks and baths with the unpleasant smell of blocked drains was in keeping with the endless cigerette ends at the front and back of the villa.
The same has to be said about The Pancake House. Dirty stains all over the table, chairs and floor.
Inside main pool was cold and food awful.
I would never visit centre parcs again.
The best part - Starbucks but who goes on holiday for that? Avoid.

Slightly pricey for self catering accmodation however this holiday experience is a world away from other holiday parks. Amazing facilities for small children and babies. Everywhere is very relaxed, staff are very knowlegable and friendly. Everywhere is very clean and tidy, great feeling of security.
I can imagine when you children are out of primary school this holiday may become too expensive as all the activities are payable.
