This was the last season for this particular venue - the site is to close to the public from early 2025 to provide accommodation for 500 workers constructing the Sizewell C nuclear power station. The accommodation was a little 'tired' however the staff worked hard to ensure we had a good stay.

Pontins gets bad press but it is a nice place to go for a break. I stay there with my parents and we like the food and the entertainment. We played pool and my chalet was lovely.

A great stay - better than budget hotel!
Really enjoyed my stay, took me back to nostalgic days....menu was great and more than adequate, friendly staff and clean chalet - with fridge too! Great to hear the hubbub and laughter in the dining area! Floor shows are top notch, too - excellent performers. Thoroughly enjoyed it, will be back!

DON'T BOTHER !!!
Booked an overnight stay before a music festival at the site, we were told dinner and breakfast were included. When we got there, nothing !! The restaurant , 2 bars and even the shop were shut. So we were stranded in the middle of nowhere with nothing to eat or drink. £11 each way in a taxi just to have some tea. Disgusting. Do not bother. No wonder they are closing down 👇

NEEDS UPDATING IT WAS LIKE GOING BACK TO 50's OLD AND DIRTY APPARENTLY THE HOUSEKEEPER ONLY HAS 25 MINUTES TO CLEAN AND MAKE UP BEDS, BEING A HOUSEKEEPER MYSELF THIS DOES NOT GIVE THEM TIME TO DO THE EXTRAS LIKE SKIRTING BOARDS ETC. THE STAFF WAS FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL AND THE FOOD WAS COOKED BRILLIANTLY AND SO MUCH TO CHOOSE FROM, WE HAD A LOVELY WEEKEND AND WOULD GO BACK AGAIN.

Awful experience
The resort was advertised as “Adult Only” but when arrived was greeted by unruly children screaming and shouting. The chalet was in a disgusting condition with mould everywhere in the bathroom, the bed linen just thrown on the bed, no hand towels, sink filthy and stale water left in the kettle. The chalet had obviously not been cleaned after the previous occupant. The evening buffet dinner was passable but not very hot. The check in process was an absolute joke. We were so upset with this holiday village that we left soon after our passable dinner on the first night of our two night stay. NEVER AGAIN!!!!

I didn’t even go and I’m not happy that your services and that of pakefeild have been totally unprofessional I had good reasons to cancel an rebook and you couldn’t sort it out and I have tried an tried to contact pakefeild numerous times ringing and emails with no response I feel totally let down and yet you are sending me emails asking me how my stay was??? Clearly you can see I didn’t check in as my daughter has been in hospital since Tuesday having a baby! I will never use your services or pakefeild ever again I have had the worse experience ever with you and them! Thanks for nothing and I will be taking this further I feel I have been scammed by you and pakefeild! Regards Gareth innes
