Hi all...

We've just got back home from Flamingo Land and I just want all to know we had an absolutely fantastic time there....As I stated before we were in the bottom field right next to toilet bock 4 with EHU.....Made some great friends and the kids were gutted to have to come home....

Yes the toilet and shower block was a bit minging at times but it was cleaned regularly and did the job as far as we were concerned...

We found getting into the theme park at 10am worked a treat and the twins could get on the rides with little or no queues as come lunch time it was chocker and queues were an hour or so for the "big" rides....

We went swimming on four separate occasions as the pool is great although the deep end pool was bloody freezing....

As for the night time entertainment well we only went twice as we prefered to just sit back outside our tent and chat....

Did experience some annoyance of kids and adults shouting their heads off at gone 1am but this only happened on one night.....

Overall though fantastic time had by all and thank god for free newspaper offers ha ha ha.....

Andrea we did have a good walk around to come and have a chat but couldn't find you...17

It was glorious sunshine when we took our tent down at around 12pm but come 1pm there was a huge storm with torrential rain but we just got packed in time , felt sorry for the people just setting up it was horrendous.....

As we left some of the tents in field one were flushing out flood water from their tents as the drainage there looked very very poor indeed.....

In summary fantastic offer fantastic site fingers crossed they do the same offer next year....

Hi Daveynmel,

Glad you hear you had a fab time.I think we were in the same field as you but unfortunatley had some very inconsiderate people next to us while we were there. Having said this we still enjoyed our stay.

Sam

Just returned from 4 nights camp at flamingo land and what an experience when we arrived on friday it was raining and it didnt look like it was stopping, where we were told to pitch resembled a lake so we went and had a scout about found the hidden field with toilet blocks 4&5

When we were putting the tents up there were kids basically swimming in the puddles they were that big.wish i had been able to join them.

The cleaner did her best but with that much mud it was a loosing battle. would return again but only if the offer was run again

We spent 7 nights there from the 17th and had a fantastic time, also used the Daily Express offer.

We were pitched at the back of the field between block 3 and the swimming pool and had no problems.

We did notice that the pitches between block 1 and 2 did get very water logged.

We were told initially to pitch on the right as you drive into the field but they were packed together like sardines so we decided to drive around, and we soon realised that there were EHU hooks everywhere so were pitched were we did.

The entertainment in the evening in The Club and in Pitchers/Plaza bar kept both my daughter entertained and us also.

We would definately go again as my daughters had an absolute ball but only with an offer as it works out quite expensive otherwise.
