"A short break in a great location. A well managed site and a comfortable and clean caravan."
"Lovely park with great facilities, caravan could have been maintained better but was very nice"
"Lovely caravan, easy reach of beach"
"Our Ruda review: Overall, we found the furniture decent, though the settee arm was a bit wobbly and the dining table felt a tad loose. The fridge had a few minor flaws and the main bathroom could do with a quick update. The beds were memory foam, which took some getting used to, but comfort improved. Not bad at all!"
"Great spot, will visit again"
"Nice location and clean pool"
"We loved the cosy log burner and relaxing hot tub. The hosts were lovely and the peaceful setting made our mini break special. Hope to come back soon!"
"We had an absolutely lovely stay here! The location is stunning and really private, perfect for relaxing. The owners are super friendly and always ready to help without intruding on your privacy. The hot tub was a real highlight after a long day out cycling. Just a heads up, the cottage is right under Stansteds flight path, so theres quite a bit of aircraft noise. It didnt bother us much after a while, but if you're sensitive to noise, bear that in mind. Overall, a fantastic place to unwind!"
"Pet free caravans should be as advertised! People can be allergic to dog hair hence they look for a pet free caravan! Ours had loads of dog hair when we swept the floor (and carpet) on our first morning!"
"Really enjoyed our stay at Goddards Mead. The cottage was lovely and well-equipped. Well definitely return soon!"
"Great place, had all we needed for a chilled holiday. Cheers!"
"Really enjoyed our stay, the place had everything needed."
"Very old caravan, needs upgrading, everything dirty and falling apart, only good thing was the location"
"Really liked the clean, modern feel of the caravan. Beds were super comfy!"
"We had a fantastic time at Croyde Bay, honestly one of the nicest beaches we've visited. Our stay at no.29 was super convenient, just a short stroll to the beach which was perfect. A heads up though, on arrival, the swimming slots were fully booked, so definitely try to pre-book if you want to take a dip. The WiFi was pretty rubbish and you had to pay extra for decent connection, which was a bit annoying. Don't forget to bring a bath mat for the shower because water tends to splash everywhere. Towels are a must as well. The place couldve been a bit cleaner, quite dusty and we even found a couple of old clothes! The onsite shop and amusements were really handy. All in all, we'd definitely return!"
"Really pleased with the upgrade, made our trip special."
"We loved the cottage! Its perfectly tucked away for peace but still near local shops. The hot tub is a real highlight and the underfloor heating kept everything super cosy. Rob, Sharon and Bonnie made us feel right at home. Can't wait to return for longer soon!"
"The cottage was really lovely, set in such a peaceful spot-perfect for unwinding. The hot tub was a real treat after a day out. Everything inside was spotless and well-equipped. Plenty of walks nearby and the village was charming. We had a fantastic break! Couldnt recommend enough."
"Noticed a few hairs in the kitchen when we arrived, but everything else was fine."
"We had such a lovely stay! The cottage was cosy, loved the log burner and the hot tub was a real treat. Hope to come back soon!"
"Good overall experience"
"We really appreciated the space with three bedrooms and proper heating. The caravan was spotless and had all the essentials. It was a bit worn, but considering the low price, it exceeded our expectations. Overall, quite happy with our stay!"
"Really enjoyed our stay, the caravan was perfect, especially the huge fridge! Would definitely book again."
"Its a lovely caravan, but we found ourselves needing more bowls and trays in the kitchen. Slightly understocked, really! Definitely bring some extras if youre planning a longer stay. Overall, though, its a comfy and well-kept place for a getaway."
"Really enjoyed our stay, peaceful surroundings and the garden was perfect for our dog to run freely."
"Really enjoyed our visit, great value for money and the entertainment was genuinely top-notch! Definitely recommend."
"The caravan was spotless, which was great. We had to keep rinsing the mud off to avoid staining the carpets because of a leaking water pipe nearby. Reported it though!"
"Loved our stay at Goddards Mead! The cottage was perfect in every aspect. We definitely plan to return soon."
"Didn’t use the on-site restaurant. Did have Fish and chips from the Fish and chippery, which were tasty and reasonably priced."
"The caravan was clean and the reception staff were helpful however the club area where the ordering system has to be done via an app is frustrating at best and each time I used it the order had something missing when it arrived, poor or just trying to rip of the customer?"
"Great location, lovely clean caravan and contactless check in/out. We really liked the Italian on site. Staff were mostly great with a few exceptions (the shop). Overall we had brilliant week."
"Great location right by the beautiful beach and bay"
"Stayed on a 3 night break. Accommodation was spotless and very comfortable.
Site was clean and tidy."
