River Valley Holiday Park Look After Families

Within these areas you can choose from hard sites with electricity, grass sites with electricity or grass sites with no electricity. The modern toilet and shower block is heated and tiled, and includes a laundry room, camper’s kitchen and disabled bathroom.
Area 1: Young Dreamers Area. A quiet zone suitable for families with small kids, there is no excessive noise after 10 pm in this area.
Area 2: Family Camping Area. This area is suitable for families with older kids where there is no excessive noise after 11 pm.
Definition of Excessive noise: Is where conversation or noise can be overheard in the neighboring tent or caravan. In the family area of the holiday park the focus is on the kids rather than the adults.
Family Fun Tip :- With this in mind if you are looking for a caravan and camping park where you can sit up with your friends and disturb others by talking and drinking after 11pm this is NOT the park for you.
