Just returned from Haggerston for the first weekend of the touring season. We enjoy this Haven site and go quite regulary. The toilets and showers are ok, they do get dirty BUT what do you expect rain + mud + kids = dirt. Plenty do do on site never a dull moment. Kids clubs, swimming, bike hire, peddle boats, golf, quads, bouncy castle and horse riding. You`ve got plenty of places to visit off the park too(by car). You can go to any site in the country and you wont find better entertainment anywhere than on a Haven site. The only downfall is they want you to, yes you`ve guest it SPEND,SPEND,SPEND.
First -and last- time at this site. We did get a good deal £22 for three nights, but £3 a night extra for the dog was a bit extreme. The pitch itself was spot on flat. Hard standing with enough room for an awning. The big problem was the state of the toilet/shower block. It was filthy! It was cleaned once a day at around 10 o'clock and then left. Try to imagine what it was like the following morning!
The surrounding area is fantastic and we will head that way again but we won't be stopping at Haggerston
We got a cheap deal here so decided to stay in a static for a change to the tourer. The caravan was not what we would call gold standard but it was cheap. The site was lovely very scenic and lots of historical things to do in the local area. We are going to visit again with our tourer as the touring site looked lovely and well laid out and we had a peek in the toilets which looked very clean, but it was last week of season. Entertainment was usual Haven stuff great for the kids, the pool was quite dirty and only had two showers which were in full view of the pool and extremely dirty. Very nice camp overall and would recommend.
Arrived at this site on 18 may 2007 (Friday) found the site and directions into touring reception very well signposted. The pitch I booked was a super pitch which included water, electric but no drainage. The toilets which there is two blocks are well situated, hot showers, clean (apart from one urinal was blocked and over filled) and checked quite often, also there was hair drier, shaver points. So all in all the toilet blocks were o.k. The pitches were roomy but to say the site wasn't full to capacity, it might have been a bit of a chew getting car in and out. The site is a haven site which is very family orientated which means money, money, money, nothing is cheap here so you have to expect to spend a lot of money. You need to get into the bars early as it fills very quickly and you wont get a seat but there's a lot of bingo that goes on in both bars, one is for which kids can join in and the other is for cash, which under sixteens aren't aloud in til its finished (which you can have a quite drink with Mrs) then after that the show starts and goes on all night. After a few you can enjoy fish shop, burger king or there's a Chinese but doesn't deliver and about a 5 min walk from main attractions but well worth it. All in all a good site but need plenty of money. It's a treat once in a while for kids to enjoy
This was our 2nd trip out in our caravan and have to say site was much better than our last choice.
We booked a super pitch which was fine. Toilets were clean, showers were cold on first day but advised member of touring office who advised there had been no previous complaints and this would be rectified, which it was.
Unfortunately, the pool was freezing due to a fault but didn't stop the kids from going in! Entertainment was good and not too far to walk to the entertainment zone. Swing park suitable for all ages, boating lake, horse riding, bike hire, bouncing castles, quad bikes. So plenty for the kids.
Friendly site, lost my handbag and was handed into security without anything being touched.
We stayed here for a couple of nights to see my mum for her birthday as they got a great deal for their touring caravan of £57 for 9 nights!We paid £25 for 3 nights but stayed 2 as it was going to be more money for the 2 nights!It was an OK site the pitches were fine and you could have a premier pitch if you paid extra with all your water and drainage needs to hand. There were lots of bars and entertainment but these were pricey and everything is designed to get money out of you. The showers were clean but had locks on and some reprobates had kicked the locks off( probably so they could mess around in them.) This site is popular with of Scottish families as its so close to the border. The best bit for me was the lovely buffet chinese restaurant on site! Its well placed to do some touring in the area and lovely little towns to explore. Would go back again if the price was right as normal prices can be over £300 a week!
Stayed at this site over the may bank holiday for three nights, because we got a good Internet deal, don't think we will be doing it again in a hurry. Kids only used the arcade and the baths they only used once. Not a bad price for three nights camping but have to be willing to put up with lots of noise and smelly showers and toilet blocks. Not much space between pitches either think this site is really for the statics it does not cater very well for tourers.
Stayed lots of times, we like it, ablution block okish, entertainment very good, shop big and good, tv reception fair, main bonus is the outdoor pool is warm, lots of fun, small pool, but warm, I think the indoor pool is getting made over, which is good as they are obviously putting money back in, so can only get better. Pitches for tourers good. The site is mainly flat and level so ok for disabled, kids on bikes etc, most drivers drove on site slow so again safe for kids, the entertainment they get here is what makes the place, some very good acts, bands, and toddlers dance is good, kids talent shows are ace, comedians late on very good.
Stayed here 2 nights only because we got a cheap deal on their internet site, this is not the kind of site we normally visit. Once on site the facilities were ok, clean enough, but our pitch was extremely muddy for this time of year. Thought the horse-riding was a good idea, but round the site itself!past all the caravans, people arriving and leaving! Entertainment bars were too busy for us {could not get a seat} so we went back to the caravan. Be aware! £3 per night per dog! Do not think we will be going back, unless we get another cheap deal.
The touring site (Outside) at Haggerston is reasonably tidy. During our stay many things however let the facility down. The toilet block was smelly and really not as clean as it should have been. Cleaning the toilets at 7.30 am may seem like a good idea but I when I went for my morning shower the toilets where closed?? They also didn't supply toilet brushes,,you can get an idea of the state of the toilets in the evening. The indoor swimming pool was ok but green algae on the steps made me somewhat wonder about the hygiene of the pool. The main gripe I have about the site is the way the entertainment is structured to get money of of the punters pockets. A few examples. The kids show is purely designed to sell bunny ears to the kids at £4 each. (expensive if you have 3 or 4 kids) They have an animal parade that marches the kids down the hall to have their photos taken again more money. I went to get some change in the shop and was told by the assistant that company policy was not to issue £5 notes in change only pound coins, guess why?? The figure you will be more likely to spend them.
Noting about this site would ever encourage me to go back. And so the Haven Holidays Lifestyle is not for me.
