Great indoor water park, perfect for kids of all ages. The place is so warm it really does feel like your in a little tropical bubble, water is warm and perfect for the little ones to play. A few different water slides and areas to cater for all ages from infant to adult. The outdoor is a nice touch and is always fun to see people trying the cold plunge. Only improvements.... price of drinks, £11.50 for a glass of prosseco, flet this was abit excessive. Seating around the pool. Most seats are reserved by people who have left there towels on them so quite often there is no where to sit which is annoying. Overall great place for a family swim day ! Absolutely love the swimming at centre parcs. The is large enough to swim in, even when its busy. There are plenty of slides to go on. And little areas seperate from the main pool. The rapids are the highlight for me. Was nice to go on the rapids over and over. Can be difficult going down it when its busy. Overall, it is the best thing to do at centre parcs Great fun. Would recommend coming in on the changeover time if you want to queue less for the big flumes, they're top class. Rapids and smaller flumes are always easy to get on. It was great but so busy, the one was cleared for a while so the outside top was rather full. Overall, the kids had a fabulous time on the slides and the wave machine was a hit. It was lovely and warm when out of the with a towel on to dry off andxdit out when needed. They have put up white temporary walls throughout the changing rooms, but not taken down the exit signs that direct you to these walls. The changing rooms are already a pressure cooker-esque maze full of stressed adults and screaming kids. Building in surprise dead-ends seems unnecessarily sadistic. Brilliant swimming and best thing of all, it's free! You can spend all day here, they have cabanas to hire, but not worth it. Just grab some seats and set up an area for you and the family. The lifeguards are friendly and helpful, they even moved a baby cot from one side of the for us. The new ride is amazing too! Fantastic family holiday resort. You can swim all day and go on the water rides, rapids and pool. Wave machine is fun but doesnt always happen on time, depends on lifeguards. Beautiful forest and walk ways to explore on foot or bike. Peaceful lakes ...some lodges back onto lakes and you can watch the wildlife from the sofa. The animals are very brave as used to humans and often the geese will knock on the patio doors wanting a snack! Accommodation is clean and well designed. They are warm in colder weather. Can have a log fire which is lovely, can buy logs from shop. The activities are plentiful but some are pricey. Not much choice of craft activities for over 9 year olds...Need to book in advance to get time slots you want. Staff on site are friendly and courteous, and are happy to help. Restaurant staff are very nice and do everything they can to make it a good experience. Some building work is still going on at Sherwood...so some areas cordoned off still. The xmas area is looking lovely though. There is something for everyone here....you certainly get a good physical workout if you want it. Only one moan ....Busy on change over days and got a bit crazy due to overcrowding on water rapids. Some younger life guards could be benefit from controlling numbers a bit more and the youngsters who behave dangerously....so that it is a good experience for all. Need to accompany younger children. Overall great holiday and would definitely come back. I love this swimming place. The rapids, slides, pools are so so good and I recommend it to anyone! It's really fun and theres plenty of seating at the side and bar. I recommend going at night because it's not as busy and the atmosphere is so lovely.
