The property was clean, amazing view of the sea and lighthouse. The property was very clean. The lights and heating had been put on for us as we did not arrive till after 6, I thought that was a nice touch.
We struggled to get in, the key store must have been broken as the patio door was unlocked and the key had been left on the bench. When we opened the door the smell of wet dog hit us, it was awful. The sofa was not very clean and was stinking. The main bedroom also smelled of wet dogs. The bathroom radiator was leaking and the floor was soaking. One of the bedrooms did not have a handle on, so if you closed it and were inside the bedroom you would have been locked in.
The caravan was just a couple of metres from the play park, this did not bother us at all, but the height of summer it could be noisy. The entertainment was right next to us again the music from there didn’t bother us but it was loud.

Not as advertised. Booked as a 5 bed, three bedroom caravan, but one room was locked so only had two rooms/ two beds/2blankets between my three young daughters and myself. Boiler claimed it needed turning on, but had no pressure/needed servicing so extremely cold first night. Eldest daughter is autistic, so having to squeeze into 1 bed with her two sisters meant a night of misery. Spoke to host and no help. Spoke to site multiple times and no help. Spent first two days trying to get the caravan livable, ended up going home a day early.

Location was fabulous, views were amazing. Finding and parking by the caravan easy. In the summer or warmer weather this would be lovely.
Heating didn't work properly and we were cold. Not all the radiators worked Fire didn't work as a heater. One morning no water due to frozen pipes and no instructions in caravan as to what to do if a problem occurred. Couldn't find caravan park staff that early in the morning. Caravan wasn't ready when we arrived and we had to leave again and return later. Wet towels left on the sink and cobwebs everywhere but I do know that the normal cleaning staff were not available due to the holidays.

The location is great. Lovely views and walking distance from Spanish City and Whitley Bay town. A trip to St Mary's lighthouse right in front of the property was amazing.
The van was warm, and the mattresses fairly comfortable.
We contacted the owner regarding all the problems listed in the problems section, and she was VERY responsive and by early morning the next day arrived with towels, a new kettle and teaspoons, etc etc. She said the van is getting an overhaul with new carpets etc. She explained she had a new cleaning company and they needed managing to ensure good service. Appreciated her rapid response to rectify matters.
Was advised that the PIN code for the lock box would be sent the day before we arrived. We had arranged a 4pm check in. No code and we had to call the owner and then wait half hour before we got pin. Only got in at 5pm.
The property was not clean. The kettle was rusty and unusable. There was no frying pan or towels. The bin was dirty inside. Shower had stuff on the walls.
The van is right next to the playground so you hear the kids having fun. There are banners on the perimeter fence, and in the wind they banged incessantly which hampered sleep.

The view was about the only thing to like!
PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING THIS CARAVAN
This Caravan isn't fit or safe for purpose (well also be reporting it to park dean itself).
To start with we got no access code to get the key, I emailed in the morning, text as we were 30 mins away and ended up having to call.
- The decking - railing is broken at the steps and the decking itself is unstable at best. Kids have access to sharp screws in places and by the French doors your foot sinks down! Also dirty
- patio furniture- all looked so dirty i wouldn't sit on it, nor would the kids.
- furniture- the one chair we dared sit on, you sank almost right through it, the sofa is the most uncomfortable thing I've sat on in many years
- beds - don't expect much sleep. They are not in the slightest comfortable
In general the kitchen space looked nice. Carpets throughout were disgusting and stained, wallpaper ripped in places and it looked like it had got damp in some of the rooms. Handles missing from doors etc.
The worst part - when I finally went and read reviews...all of these issues have been being reported for years. And a lot of people have the issue with the access code. Just save yourselves the money and book elsewhere.. I wish we had.

Would have been good to have a frying pan and more utensils like sharp knife’s or scissors
5.0 / 10.0
Price was reasonable and view was excellent.
Situation was convenient for our purpose.
Key box needs replacement, very difficult to see central images due to damage, and no instructions provided as to programming sequence, we really struggled to get the key out. Not possible to use fire as remote was damaged. Several areas of damage within caravan need attention.
Key code not provided day before as promised, necessitating phone call before we left.

Noisy playground next to the caravan. We had no children.
7.0 / 10.0
Very close to the park for the kids. Close to the pool and all the amenities. Fantastic views.
No lock code was sent prior to arrival one contact number was not available, the other went to voicemail (numerous times) Also sent message via booking.com to say no code. Had to wait until after 5pm to get a solution, which came from the reception staff on the park who were very helpful. They got a key for us to get in. The owners did not respond until after a solution had been found by the park. Not sure if the lack of code was booking.com's fault or the owners but communication could be better when there is a problem to solve

It is located with lovely views across the bay to the light house. It is within walking distance to Whitley Bay town centre. The host was easy to contact and seemed nice enough.
Despite us updating our ETA to 16:00-17:00 (from 15:00-16:00) and arriving around 16:45, the property wasn't ready for us and was still being cleaned. I am not sure if it was the owner we met, but they were nice enough and we were already late to meet some friends in town, so we simply had a quick tour, put some items in the fridge freezer, grabbed the keys, and shot off. When we returned later around 20:00, the property was mostly clean, but you could see it had been rushed and ultimately not up to a good standard of cleanliness. The bin was overflowing, plasters on the floor, dirty dish rags left, wet towel.

Perfect location for visiting grandaughter for a couple of days. Spacious caravan and dog friendly. Lovely sea view
Carpet and sofa could benefit from updating. Veranda and steps up very wobbly

Sea view, plenty of room.bathroom with shower + an extra toilet room.Close to amenities,next door to play park.Built in microwave.Plenty of storage in bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen.4 slot toaster and kettle.Patio doors at front for easy access to the veranda.
Oven took ages to heat and cook food,you couldn’t read the numbers around the knobs,so had to figure out which knob went with which knob.
Veranda had part of handrail missing as you enter property.
Slats we’re missing in one of the single beds.
Quite noisy late at night, you could hear the entertainment from the club house when you went to bed, late on after 11 o’clock.

The location for the view was perfect as we could see the sea and watch the sun rise but unfortunately it was a metre away from a park where the children played till late.
It could have been alot cleaner ie sofas,cushions and carpets needed a deep clean and the main bedroom had an awful smell also needed lighting and door handles fixed. The owner did pop in to change the batteries in a remote control which we didn't need and could have waited till we left 🤔and said she was having some work done on the caravan which I think should have been stated in the advert and maybe a little cheaper.

Location was handy and because of the time of year (Feb) it was quiet
Key release is inside a ln electric padlock. Had to take your chance and get the code in quick as the battery was dying. 7 digit code so not as easy as you’d think. Took 10 mins to release it. Didn’t get the code until a message came through at 3.05pm. Got in and it was freezing so we put the heating on only to find the gas bottles were empty. I will save you the lengthy post but it took 5 hours as the warden was dealing with another boiler situation on site. Once we got them it still didn’t work as there was air in the pipes. Thought the electric fire could help us a bit but it didn’t work. Owner said yeah he’s been empty for a month- unsure why this is my issue. No cloth to clean dishes, had to go and buy one. No bin bags, had to just walk rubbish straight to the industrial bins. Rusty broken sweeping brush on the decking, randomly a bottle of washing up liquid on the decking. Bits of food left, just throw it out. red nail varnish on sockets and light switches. Wallpaper ripped off the walls. Parked where we should in the bays only to be knocked up early on Sunday morning as a lorry was delivering some play park equipment. Had to get up and dressed and move the car. Contacted booking.com for a partial refund but so far nothing has happened. Do yourself a favour and do NOT stay here. You will regret it.

Great location !!
First impressions were not good, external of the caravan was green with algae, Handles missing from several
Windows so draught coming through, leaking shower head (just needed a rubber washer) fire would switch on but no heat generated from fire. Seating area uncomfortable with sections sinking due to warped wood, heating not working in one of the bedrooms.

The location was lovely had a great view from the caravan. The key was accessible. There was plenty of space
Would’ve been more ideal if the caravan wasn’t next to the park or the entertainment club. Felt like there was little privacy due to people on the park and the noise from the club went on past 11.

The only good thing was the interior was well presented.
The cleanliness was poor, it was damp and had a smokey smell, no hot water or heating and no basic essentials.

Very nice place to rest your head comfortably. Beautiful view from the lounge and well presented
Very close to the club house so can hear the singing on karaoke night. If your an early to bed person you can feel the bass. It would be much easier if the parking was not regularly blocked by the decking set up by the site.

Great location. Enough kitchen facilities. Comfy. Amazing view.
The outdoor furniture and steps leading up to the caravan are a little bit dangerous. Especially if you have young children or elderly people staying. There was an alarm that kept beeping and couldn’t figure out how to turn it off? Seemed to be movement activated so it was ok when sleeping.

The caravan is beautiful, really clean & has everything you need. Large kitchen area. Spacious bathroom with large shower. Has a hairdryer & iron / ironing board. Location is excellent with uninterrupted sea views & very private.
The outside furniture really let this property down; the wooden table & chairs were broken & badly in need of repair / replacing. There were 3 green plastic chairs which were very old & dirty.

Location, kitchen facilities, view
Minimal information regarding finding the location of the caravan, alarm, getting the key, resort facilities. Some maintenance required to toilet door handles, kitchen cupboards, outside furniture. Bedrooms were tiny!
2.0 / 10.0
the views were amazing
the decking handrail had been removed making it extremely dangerous, the decking steps were not stable and very unsteady. the main decking outside the patio door was not stable (bouncy and loose) the outside furniture was damaged and unable to be used so not fit for purpose at all. The footpath and surrounding grounds were dirty and overgrown, the listing does not state that it is far from the main path/road therefore not suitable for disabled access
the property had not been cleaned sufficiently (two disgusting used dish sponges left in sink)

Good views and next to the park. The layout out of the caravan was great.
It smelt bad, cutlery was just chucked in a drawer and still dirty, the decking was loose, the sofa and carpets were filthy, the bedrooms stunk of stale smoke (none of us smoke), the shower kept going hot and cold, none of the doors in the toilets would close and the dining room chair was broken.

modern and comfortable. pillows were fab.
nothing wrong with the property, but unfortunately for us, we have a dog who has anxiety problems around fireworks and loud bangs, we wanted a quiet place but unfortunately the road to the beach is a drag race road for everyone with two fat exhausts or a super car. constantly from 10am til 1/2am. pooch petrified and ended up medicated. this is our issue and therefore has nothing to do with the property/owner, chose this van for the decking and closed gate but was just wrong location on the site. no problems else where. not even dog is the same, this didn't spoil out break but was very unfortunate as our dog didn't leave the van and neither could we.
