Hi everyone, I'm off to Center Parcs Longleat in June with my son, DIL and 3 year old grandson. We've never been before so where else to look for inside info then on GN? I know I can read the website, but I'm hoping to hear from the horse's mouth so to speak smile

Is it worth ordering the grocery starter pack? I understand that it's convenient, but I just wondered whether it's a bit of a rip-off (I've already noticed that they charge extra for every little thing!)

Are the kitchenettes well equipped or is it a good idea to take own bits of kit? I've been in rented holiday accommodation where the kitchen stuff has been appalling - Teflon pans where the coating is scratched and peeling, blunt knives and so on. We're not planning to do a lot of cooking but it would still be nice to know what to expect.

We have been to 3 CPs , with a crowd. We usually take breakfast stuff, a family cake, kids snacks/bowl of fruit tea,coffee and wine grin
We chose to eat out /take away each evening as part of the holiday. Used the shop for bread & milk. Enjoy!

When we ve been we ve picked up the groceries in the nearest town before going in the chalets are extremely well equipped much better than my own kitchen The food onsite is expensive and we only have one special meal

I'm sure New York food trucks would deliver to Centre Parks !

Food might be a bit cold by the time it gets there.

Answering a 3 year old thread is a bit odd as well.
