| "I would recommend this park to friends basically because it is more up market and a large step up from Pontins Butlins and other holiday park chains that that seem to offer the same loud and less discreet holiday to the less discerning holiday maker wishing to take a break in the UK. Everything from start to finish was excellent. I have been coming to Cornwall nearly every year ever since I was a young lad but have never been so impressed than at Gwen an Mor. The accommodation location and staff were excellent!" |
| Mr R, 12 August 2009 |
| |
| |

We would love to return again for a less hectic stay to fully enjoy the lodge and the on-site facilities. Having booked a VIP Lodge we were thoroughly spoilt and would have the same level of accommodation again although I am sure our 2 dogs would not be happy at being left out of the experience again due to the wonderful beaches that we enjoyed walking along - not them. " |
