The self catering accommodation was expensive - £700+ for 4 days for a family of six at Whitsun, but at least it included free entry to the swimming complex, which the children (aged 10-16) all adored.

Lots of flumes, a wave machine, a... read more

We had previously stayed at Sherwood Forest 4 or 5 times but decided to give Whinfell a go as it is closer to where we live. We usually go for the Executive accommodation but decided to give the Comfort villas a go. The accommodation was clean... read more

I loved Oasis Whinfell forest as the surroundings were gorgeous. The kids didn’t want to leave as they enjoyed themselves what with all the swimming and outdoor activities we jammed in.

This was our second visit to Oasis Whinfell and we... read more

Just back from 4 day break at Oasis Whinfell and I can honestly say that my wife and I enjoyed ourselves. We were looking for a Uk break as we have an 18 month old and we didn’t want to fly.

Plus points-

This is the second time my friend and I visited and are already planning our 3rd or even 4th trip!

Yes there are some bad points such as the price of food with an average of £40 to £50 a meal. Most cases this was 2 courses and wine. Also... read more

Felt I had to write a glowing review after reading the bad reviews on the internet prior to going and after I had booked.
I even phoned somebody I knew who had been to get their view on the place.

The park was spotless, quiet and... read more

Go to Center Parcs if you enjoy staying in motorway service stations for extended periods of time. Same lack of choice, imagination, quality or value for money. Plastic food and plastic entertainment at vast expense.

They have basically... read more

First time visitor to Cumbria, although not the first time I've been to a Center Parcs village. However, the accommodation at Whinfell was far superior to that which I have stayed in previously.

The lodge was two-storey, which meant the... read more

This place has a lot of good and bad points. We stayed in the Exec Lakeside apartments, which were very clean, warm and quiet. The room was no where near 5 star but it is suitable and very spacious.

The room was cleaned every day, the... read more

Very good holiday and good value for money. Relaxing and energising at the same time. No cars so therefore it involves walking or cycling (hire available). Accommodation is spacious, warm with relaxing touches e.g. open fire for which you can purchase... read more

We stayed at Oasis Windfall for a long weekend. On arrival we found the accommodation to be okay but in need of refurbishment but we had kind of guessed this as we had only booked a standard villa. We headed straight to the pool on the Friday night a... read more

However I do have a few small complaints:-

The "double" bed was actually 2 lumpy single beds, which resulted in myself and my boyfriend waking up in rather a... read more
