Well I went to Center Parcs - Sherwood Forest in September 2005 and wow what a pleasant surprise it was. Loved it! Went with a little girl aged 8 months and it was perfect. Activities are a plenty whether you have an infant or a teenager. Restaurants are proper restaurants great choices ranging from French, Italian, Indian, Al la Carted or pub grub along with a burger bar aswell. Swimming pool fab and if you are taking a baby under 3 they do a baby dolphins club at 9:15am (FREE) in the pool for 45 mins (most days - check in resort) for just infants of 3 and under and sing songs etc - which I thought was great! There is a supermarket on site so we went straight there got our provisions for the week - and if you spend over £45 they deliver to your chalet. Chalets are great we stayed in the basic chalet (comfort) - which was perfect, overlooking the lake. Going again in Jan for my daughters 1st birthday and we are staying in a comfort plus - give that one a try. A lot of the executive villas are a bit out of the way so try and stay close to the village center is my advice - you can pick your villa before you arrive for a little extra charge.
The Spa on the Center Parcs village is another World and if you book 2 or more sessions in the creche you get a £5 discount for the spa. The creche was brilliant - facilities great and plenty of staff on hand.
Try the Pancake House for their carver which i think is Sunday and Tuesday. Also they have fanstci menus for sweet and savoury pancackes at any other time!
All in all I could write pages and pages on Center Parcs as I thought it was brilliant - and this is why we are due to go back in Jan 2006.
Although I hear on the grape vine that Sherwood Forest is the best one to go to if anyone is thinking of going.
