- Bad points-delayed check in even though we'd paid extra for early check in, policy on groups of young people in caravans....noisy, rowdy teenagers staying at park during Croyde fest, caravans far too hot during really hot weather...no fans, inadequate utensils provided i.e. no oven glove etc, had to chase maintenance after no response regarding fridge door, food from fish and chip shop was awful.
Good points-cascades pool, kids entertainment, location, bar staff in bar area.

- This is a nice park clean and tidy with professional staff in a fantastic location.
The two things of note for me
1. The fish and chip shop was sub par in terms of quality of the food which was disappointing.
2. The entertainment is very focused on families with young children therefore if you are a couple travelling with no kids your entertainment is limited, this is not to say the troopers aren't doing a great job it's just the entertainment was not to my taste.

- We arrived 18th June and Oceanfest was on. It was a nightmare! There was drunken youngsters out of control everywhere. Loud music being played from caravans and shouting going on till early hours of the morning. I understand everyone is entitled to have fun, but this was crazy! Outside Tables and chairs were being broken and swim wear thrown everywhere.
I feel that consideration of others should be taken when arranging these events.
This was our 2nd visit to Ruda and I certainly will not be visiting with my young children again!

- The location is beautiful and we have stayed at this site on a number of occasions.
We just felt the flat we stayed incould have been Cleaner and needs to be refitted i.e. Light switch pull cords very grubby and sticky.
We hired a high chair which was ripped and again very grubby. We did ask for it to be replaced as it was ripped and were assured in reception that it would be - it never was.
Overall we we're disappointed with service this time.
