    Until this year I'd never stayed in a holiday park before, but we've tried a few now and people keep commenting that we need to try a Haven park, because Haven do things a little differently. So this video is our first impressions and review of the Haven Seashore Holiday Park in Great Yarmouth - it's not what we expected!

    I am wel jel - I absolutely LOVE heavy rain / thunderstorms etc! The thought of being in a caravan during a heavy storm, listening to Bob Dylan on my headphones and watching the rain is my idea of heaven!

    The land train can store buggies and the like if someone is able to manoevre themselves onto the train. We always take the pram on...the owner of the train is very helpful.

    Love Seashore, remember going there many times as a kid, used to be our little summer tradition. Nice to see it again, the Seafront certainly hasn't really changed from when I went there about 15 years ago

    Being given a 3 bed van when you don't need it is not an upgrade in my opinion. It just means that the bedrooms you will be using are smaller. The single beds are 2' 6"; standard singles are 3' 6".
    Edit: I commented before you got to this point too!

    I've already established Seashore as my third home, and I was lucky to have spent Christmas at this Haven park this year because I've always wanted to spend Christmas at a Haven park. Haven have been trialling Festive Breaks at Seashore this year for this year's Festive Season. You should try it next year Kevin because they're brilliant.🥰

    My family used to Own a caravan on a haven Park (burnham on Sea)
    Caravans have come a long way since we owned about a decade or so ago...
    That van looked gorgeous

    The bus only comes down to service the park as it’s a dead end at the bottom. Land train comes down there too. Nice little trek over the dunes to the sea. A long walk to the town. Especially with young children.

    I used to love going to Haven, only ones I can remember going to through is Thorpe Park although it's now called something else, Hopton (I think), Golden Sands and Primrose Valley. The most common one we have been too is Thorpe Park, once going 3 times back in 2015, once for an actual 7 day stay and 2 day trips cause we just love it.
    The most recent park we have been too was Primrose Valley back in 2019 and we always had to have a 3 bedroom platinum caravan, as it was me, my sister and my stepdad and mum going, and my mum always wanted a seaview caravan so she could watch the sea at night, a good wrap-around varanader (balcony).
    I always loved going swimming too, and other activities around the park and it was always a good place to go in the summer, even if it was just for a day trip or so, it was amazing there but my mum hates the showbar.
    Me and my sister are massive fans of the Seaside Squad although the old one, and remember it going as far back as Tiger Club and even further than that, and I used to love doing the party dances - yes, even at the age of 17, I loved dancing along to my favourite party dances 😂 but, Haven last year announced they were changing some major things to the parks which included the Seaside Squad, and me and my sister did NOT like them at all, not only did they change pretty much everything about them, there was literally no need too and my sister's favourite character was Anxious, now known as Annie but she had a special connection towards that character, and now they're all different.
    Throughout the past few months they have been making drastic changes that I'm sure many people wanting to go to Haven are not liking and even putting us off, and I seriously thing Haven is slowly dying if I'm going to be honest. I want it to go back to the way it was as there was nothing wrong with it, and these new changes have caused a huge backlash to the company.

    Excellent choice, and it’s not me being biased as a Haven Employee, I think the majority of sites have a Burger King and Papa Johns these days, I live on site as I’m on the entertainment team, regarding food I go to the local supermarket I won’t generally buy from the shop, maybe milk, if I have forgotten, Pity Kev didn’t have the entertainment included, as it is very good indeed

    Love caravan holidays and because i don't book them my boyfriend always gets the luxury caravan that is double wide and the main bedroom is always huge. We went to blue dolphin near Scarborough in may and it was a fantastic week.

  • @tayahmoore849
    @tayahmoore849 Před 8 měsíci

    We always go to seashore and if there is 4 of us then I always pay extra to choose van (2 bedroom ) as has way more space. also the beach is better if you go from where the land train stops.

  • @beverlyscott-wilkins3222
    @beverlyscott-wilkins3222 Před 8 měsíci

    If you're going out for fish and chips, try The Corner along the seafront. Highly recommended and family run.😊

  • @EmmaJones925
    @EmmaJones925 Před 8 měsíci

    The new way of checking in since Covid I guess has made it easier for the holidaymaker, but for haven I’m not sure, As being a employee for them, the days of all the holidaymakers having to go to the club room, and sit and wait for there caravans to be available, especially those who would arrive in the morning and were a captive audience, aa to pass time, were using shops, club, pub, arcades all before there caravans were ready

  • @UKFunfairsTV
    @UKFunfairsTV Před 8 měsíci +1

    Really enjoyed this and is it even a British Caravan Holiday if it doesn’t at least rain for half of the time of the stay 😂👍🏻

  • @kevinyoung1737
    @kevinyoung1737 Před 8 měsíci +1

    We paid £118 for the full haven experience at Wild Duck (which is about 10 mins down the road) on the exact same week. It was the third time we’ve been there and we really enjoy it there. We have paid for 2 bed bronze caravans each time and been upgraded to 3 beds on all three occasions. The 3 bed caravans are definitely bigger there too.
    If you’re interested in trying it out, give me a shout and I’ll recommend the local pubs to eat at, as the on-site restaurant is not great.

    • @tayahmoore849

    I love seashore. I have a family member who works there 😂 also I've just come across your channel. Are you from the norfolk area? If you haven't been to hopton I'd highly recommend that park. It's about 15 mins from seashore (it's in lowestoft). It's my favourite park of all. Feels like a second home to me and it's great for dogs. We've also been on the land train at seashore back when it used to stop where the check in hut is now. I had two buggies and they were very helpful with folding them down and putting them in the back whilst we sat with the kids on our lap in one of the carriages. I'm sure they'd be able to accomodate a mobility scooter too as the back part of the train is (or used to be) quite wide x
