Booked this car an for 9 people 5 Adults 4 Kids. It only got a double bed, 4 single beds.
Property welcomed us with a foul smell and slugs in bed rooms and bathroom.
Kitchen had hair everywhere with food particles sticking to the scrub. Microwave, kettle and toaster are just unimaginable.
Beds are just not fit to sleep and smell was disgusting. We could just not sleep. My 6 year old son and 7 year old nephew had sneezed all night and got rashes all over for just sleeping for few hours.
Bathroom has mould every where and the used toilet tissues left on the floor back of the washbasin. Toilet seat is broken and dark brown liquid flowing out of it.
The shower cabin floor is squeaky and you feel like it can go down anytime.
Nothing about the property is acceptable and not suitable for humans to live.

Just really nice
The sofas were comfortable not like most static caravans

Exceptional atmosphere. We made our own breakfast in the caravan. We had all the utensils available in the caravan to make our own meals. Amazing facilities. The location is so convenient in such a way that a traveler could use both the town facilities and the beach facilities. We all loved it.
Nothing but thanks.

Told us about a repaired leak but the floor outside the bedrooms was still very wet. Bedding was damp and pillows had mould on them. Whole caravan was pretty shoddy and had very basic equipment. Not impressed.
3.5
Location to club house and entrance/exit.
A lovely little town with lift to the sea a 10 minute walk away.
Mould in the shower, floor feels like it's going to go through at any moment in different parts of the caravan.
For what I paid I expected a quality caravan.
The double bed was uncomfortable and lumpy.
3.5
Caravan was located very well to travel to lots of places of interest. Good flexibility in booking. Vendor was easy to contact.
Some cutlery and cooking items were left dirty (presumably previous tenants). Caravan is a little tired and in need of maintenance (door latch, window seals, damaged wallpaper), but still suitable for summer living.

Such a clean caravan with some extra bits ( like washing up liquid, bath mat etc which make it stay super pleasant!
Nothing particularly. Everything seemed good!

The property is in an excellent location on the Isle of Wight within a great distance to supermarkets which can be walked to and not far from old town Shanklin. The property was nice and warm with a good sized bathroom and living space.
The parking isn’t the best and is rather cramped due to cars getting bigger and spaces getting smaller. There wasn’t much room to manoeuvre. Upon talking to the reception desk enquiring into the leisure passes they informed us that the caravan had been overcrowded as there were 9 of us. I did explain that when searching the property came up suitable but they weren’t best pleased. When trying to wash up we discovered that the sink was blocked which was blocked the whole time we stayed. Reception informed us to contact the owner to which I sent an email and I didn’t hear anything back. We had to empty buckets from the washing up down the toilet. Yes there were 9 of us but considering the caravan sleeps up to 8 and reception informed me it was advertised for up to 10 people there wasn’t enough cutlery for us all to sit down and have a family meal together. The adults were having to wash cutlery up after the children just so they could eat. The pots and pans to cook with were just thrown in the cupboard and not very well stored. The master bed looked alright until you got in it. I nearly rolled off one side and my husband the other as it dips to either side when weight is put into it and it was really uncomfortable. When we left at the end of our stay all the beds were stripped to make it easy for the cleaner and I discovered rubbish in the bed near the top of the headboard which did lead me to wonder if the bed had been done before we turned up. I am still waiting for my deposit back and haven’t had any correspondence in relation to getting it back despite there being written that the deposit will be returned 3 days after vacating the property.

Great location, pleasant site, very quiet.
This caravan was obviously cherished once, but is very dated and could do with some tlc, and a good airing, as its very damp inside. It also could do with a deep clean as it was a bit grubby.
3.5
Great location
Caravan was not cleaned to a good standard. No mattress and pillow protectors.
Strong smell of damp inside the caravan.
Overhaul disappointing
3.5
Clean and comfortable caravan - loved the fact we didn’t have to worry about purchasing toilet rolls, kitchen rolls and cleaning equipment.
Not enough decent cutlery and def not enough for an 8 berth caravan - there were only 5 of us and we struggled to find decent metal ones.
Some of the bedding was stained and mouldy - def needs replacing.
It’s a dated caravan that with a bit of TLC could be a great find. Decor needs refreshing
3.5
Great location
Beds are not very large in caravans in general and carpets are less hygienic than other kinds of flooring
3.5
It served it's purpose for a cheap base for us to stay.
Unfortunately, the property smelt musty (likely due to no one being in with Covid), there were cobwebs with bugs in in the bathroom and we had to change one of the beds as the bedding had mildew on.

Location , the park was nice, and long days out, ,,🤣 plenty of places to visit good restaurants .
The caravan smelt, and was dirty, no shelves in cooker, leaking skylight in kitchen, faulty heaters, and dangerous especially for someone with children, ,, on inspection the underneath of the caravan had several supports missing,, which I rectified myself, as one corner was completely unsupported. ! The ramp and pvc ballustrading was covered in algae, and I feel quite upset that I have paid all this money to someone who obviously has no conscience. The skylights had cobwebs with hosts in them. The mattress was lumpy, you could feel the spring's. . I'm not one to complain, but this affected our holiday, and would only be fair to have half our monies refunded. Also on first contact was asked if we wanted to pay through himself rather than booking .com, as he could offer the property 50.00 cheaper!. The alarm bells started ringing before we even got there. Appalling.

Lacks free Wifi.

Location was in a good area of Shanklin, close to the train station and shops, the beach is a short car ride away from property.
We arrived for two nights only, none of the windows would shut properly, the two small beds in the small bedroom are only big enough for children, none of the cutlery, toaster or microwave had not been cleaned properly, the shower was the only good thing about the caravan, the caravan needs some TLC spent on it to improve the overhaul condition and a professional cleaner needs to be arranged in between guest arriving and leaving.

The double needs updating
Not very comfortable
