Booked a two night break 03/09/07 to 05/09/07. Only stayed the one night in the end. Arrived expecting the worst after reading the reviews but still thought that as long as it was clean the kids (age 1 & 5 yrs) would enjoy it. What a... read more

Went to Pontins in Hemsby with open mind what it was going to be like, but I was very surprised the room was very clean we went in club class.

It felt very safe with the big fence round you had to get a ticket to get in and out.

If you think that £200 for a holiday is over the top then you probably won't want to go here.

I took my family, 6 of us in total, for 4 days and we all had a great time. The things that were a disappointment were out of Pontins control.... read more

Well what can I say? We turned up at the allocated time and even before we got round the corner my husband thought we were going into a prison camp.

The room we had was really filthy with ash everywhere, it also smelled of damp.
