Reviews
We stayed at Brookside for the October half term with our two boys aged 11 and 14 and a friends son also aged 11. We also took our three dogs. The accommodation was lovely. Very warm on arrival, a lovely box of goodies had been left for us, even something for the dogs which was really appreciated. The accommodation was clean and very well equipped. The folder contained all the info we needed about the accommodation, resort and surrounding area. The boys loved the Xbox and the WiFi and the hot tub. We will definitely return again. There are lots of places to visit and walk the dogs off site.
