Mark Hallam, July 2010

"Heads and shoulders above Centre Parcs - so impressed with the standard of accommodation and the extras - we were not expected to rough it at all - very different from the very basic Centre Parcs we have been used to - we will return every year."

Mrs Yon, Wiltshire, March 2010

"Beautiful surroundings. Next time would stay longer."

Mrs Sanderson, North Humberside, March 2010

"We loved our little (2 berth) cabin and hope to bring grandchildren next time. Lots of wildlife and lovely forests to explore."

Mrs Kelly, Hertfordshire, March 2010

"Thank you for a wonderful, clean, comfortable and relaxing stay. We hope to return again soon."

Miss Styles, Manchester, March 2010

"Excellent Country Park, will recommend it to family and friends. Made my 50th birthday, will come back again."

Miss Wilson, South Yorkshire, February 2010

"Darwin is out of this world. Some of us booked to return already - the rest of us booking soon. Can't praise place enough. "

Mrs Bateman, Northumberland, January 2010

"We have had a fantastic weekend & couldn't have asked for more. The fireworks display was great and well done for all the hard work preparing for it."

Mrs Reeson, Lincs, November 2009

"All round a fantastic park and staff were great. Facilities suit all ages but feel that the new children's play area will be a brilliant addition. Loved our stay, already thinking about coming back next year."

Mrs Lockwoood, Suffolk, November 2009

"Thank you for another great stay - our 4th time at Darwin and the kids (age 12 & 9) loved every minute again. The ability to enjoy the Park, relax in a fantastic lodge or to visit various Peak District attractions is superb - enabling us to account and plan for the mixed weather. Thanks again to all the staff for their great and friendly service!! Will be back early next year!"

Mr & Mrs Russell, Manchester, September 2009

"All we can say is a huge 'Thank You' to you all. We had a fantastic week in one of your lodges. We usually have a couple of holidays at Centre Parcs each year but now we have found Darwin Forest we will be back. The accommodation was superb, staff very helpful - the best we have ever found in the UK. Please thank everyone at the Forest - they are a huge credit to your organisation."

Hart family, Northants, September 2009

"This is the best self catering park we have ever stayed in. It is difficult to say how you could possibly improve on either the park or the lodges. They are perfect. We shall certainly return."

Mrs Hughes, Warwickshire, September 2009

"Have been coming here for about 10 years and this place never loses its magic for me. I love the peace and quiet and will look forward to my next visit Nov 30th and many more to come."

Mrs Baker, Hull, September 2009

"We were very impressed and pleased by the cleanliness of the lodge and enjoyed the variety of activities available on the site. A very enjoyable and relaxing holiday. Thank you!"

Mr & Mrs Franks, Peterborough, August 2009

"We returned this year after a lovely holiday last year - once again a super holiday which has been recommended to friends."

Mrs Clarke, West Midlands, August 2009

"Not sure how you can improve on the standard, help, friendliness and peace here. Well done. Keep it up."

Mrs Beacham, Oxfordshire, July 2009

"Very comfortable lodges. This, our third visit to Pinelodge Holidays (2nd visit to Darwin), was most enjoyable even though weather not so good. Children loved the play areas. Have recommended to friends."

Miss Brookes, Suffolk, June 2009

"We spent one week, with inclement weather persisting, but were never at a loss as to what to do. The mini-golf and woodland walks were absolutley delightful. We loved Darwin Forest Country Park - our third visit."

Mr & Mrs Brown, Lincoln, June 2009

"We thoroughly enjoyed our first week this year at Darwin Forest, a bit later than usual but better late than never! There was a nice display of daffodils and the rhododendrons will be out the next time that we come; every thing was perfect, even the weather was kind. It was very nice to see so many new lodges on the park, some in new positions, and others replacing the older lodges. "

R & K Woodward, Nottinghamshire, April 2009

"All of the staff employed by the park that I have come across have been very friendly and helpful, which is such a welcome change. Excellent facilities, will certainly be back."
