Dovercourt Holiday Park

The caravan was clean and tidy when we arrived. Beds made up and communal areas clean. The 6 sleeping I would say is a bit far fetched as the sofa bed was outdated, the mattress very thin we had to use duvets to thicken it for comfort. I think the decking was a good extra touch but I think the price didn’t reflect the space!

The Caravan was not as high standard as we usually stay in, as we have a dog now. However, the caravan was still spacious enough and had x2 toilets, 3 bedrooms, heating and tv with freeview - as standard.The park was huge and had access to the beach, even though the weather wasn’t great until the latter part of the week.Upon arrival at about 1530 hours, our caravan was not ready and we were told to come back at 4pm. When we did, there was a long queue of people, as of course it is arrival day. However, we were surprised as having stayed at many holiday parks and of course after Covid, we have never seen anything like this. Seemed a little old hat, but fortunately our caravan was ready unlike some customers, who had to sit outside and wait.Upon entering our caravan, we had a toilet seat not attached, so I informed customer service who added the details onto a WhatsApp group and an engineer arrived within an hour and completed the job. Thank you.Kids were disappointed the the channel Pop was not even on the guide on Freeview. We retuned the tv, but the signal never picked up Pop. I managed to purchase Wi-Fi on four devices and this worked ok, so at least they could still play games on their mobiles and message etc.The indoor swimming pool is excellent, well managed, has a brilliant slide and the temperatures of the water was simply gorgeous. Bit unusual having to phone or pop into reception to book a slot for the following day, but the system worked well and the swimming pool, was never over crowded. I always say, we have Covid to thank this for.There is the usual entertainment venue, including a bar and showed live sports. An arcade is also inside this venue and there is an extra takeaway venue inside the grounds, which is reasonably priced and the food tasted good. I found the female staff member delivered a high standard customer service and upon my second visit had rowdy, unsupervised teenagers inside, whom she dealt with very professionally. Overall our stay was a pleasant one and the kids are very happy to visit again.Well done ????

A lovely caravan, well stocked and very comfortable

We had a two toilet but one of the toilet flush not working properly, next morning we called reception, they sent a staff, he fixed it but the next day it’s happened again. Other wise it was a good holiday.

Only down slightly on cleanliness because it’s pet friendly, so will never be that clean. That’s not a down on the cleaning staff, they are brilliant. But otherwise fantastic every way.

activities options are not great but great value for money overall

Very cheap but still nice & cheerful. Its a very basic Holiday Park providing a few facilities but not what will keep you onsite all day. Its location provides for some nice and easily accessible coastal walks. The caravan we stayed in was modern, spacious and well equipped, although we did notice some onsite that did look a little older, battered & dirty, but maybe they were owners caravans. You know, this park is ideal for a short break and as a base to go off and mooch around to explore the area. It is what it is.

Great caravan, much more than what I expected as we have a pet. Very spacious and the bed was so comfortable. One of the best breaks we have had, only downfall was some of the other children there who we found were quite aggressive, we experienced a very unpleasant incident with some of them which really upset my son. Perhaps parents need to be informed to keep an eye on their children. Other than that great site, staff are friendly. The man who runs the arcade was brilliant, the kids absolutely loved him.

We had a lovely week with family. The caravan was clean and tidy. We made the most of what was available within an hour or so nearby, visiting places we had never been before so park was a good base to do this.

Was a lovely 5 days, only thing that needs improving is the arcade, nothing works in there.

Brilliant late minute holiday not long enough will return for a longer break next year

Great time had by all!

Think someone before us might have had pets as we all got bites, but would stay again

Very nice,clean holiday park.

The caravan was really lovelyand the WiFi worked perfectly, which was a bonus. The only tiny issue was it sometimes felt a bit too warm in the bathroom. Overall, we enjoyed it!

Great experience, definitely worth returning for more

Great spot, really chilled out vibe.

Really enjoyed the quick weekend getaway, the place was perfect for us.

The caravan was spotless and comfy, definitely quite new. Shame about the weather, we couldn't enjoy sitting outside much.

We just had a lovely long weekend here and honestly, the staff at Dovercourt were fantastic - so friendly and welcoming, nothing was ever too much trouble. The site really caters well for families, especially those with little onesand the team are great with kids too. The local area isn’t exactly picturesque, being a bit industrial, but if you’re up for a short drive, there’s plenty to do nearby. We’re definitely planning to bring the grandchildren next time - we think they’d love it! Definitely recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay! The park was spotlessand the staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. The on-site shop was a bit disappointing, but the nearby supermarket made up for it easily. Great week overall!

Great holiday, but only if the weather stays nice.

Really enjoyed our stay, will definitely come back!

Great caravan, really comfortable and well-equipped.

We got upgraded to silverand honestly, the scoring matches the silver level pretty well.

We had a decent stay overall. The caravan was spotless, well looked afterand came with useful extras like gas heating, which was handy. The site’s still in the middle of some upgrades, so there was some noise and traffic from the work-mainly road tarmac being laid-so it wasn’t completely peaceful. The main disappointment was the beach access being closed off; we thought that would be a highlight, but unfortunately, it was barriered. The club was fine, nothing special but adequateand there seemed to be plenty for kids to do, which was good. The chip shop is still being set up, so it’s not quite there yet, but it looks promising. The staff were friendly, helpfuland professional, which we appreciated. If the beach access and ongoing work had been sorted, it would’ve been a perfect 10 out of 10!

As already stated the park and caravans were very good and had plenty of space between them

Very nice,clean holiday park.

Excellent holiday park for family’s

Just outside Harwich, a fascinating place with much naval history, and quant museums.

This was a new area for us but we were not disappointed , plenty of places to visit locally and within 20 miles by car. Caravan was immaculate and the site was pleasant enough. We did not use any of the facilities but would not hesitate to return to Dovercourt.

Not enough amusements as most did not work.should not be charged for golf as you make enough money from the lettings

Can't fault it lovely place , lovely staff

Nice stay ?
