Question

Thinking of going to Pontins in Prestatyn for christmas anyone been before and what is it like?

Answer 1

My husband thought it would be nice to take me way for christmas a couple of years ago,we went up to Scotland, stayed in a nice hotel, good food, good entertainment ....... but  ...... I would never do it again. I missed seeing the excitement on the grand-children's faces as they opened their presents. I missed cooking the dinner, I missed having a crowded house filled with my children and their children, hearing my mother have her usual christmas moan about youth today!

Christmas away? no thanks. I would rather have a house full of noise and kids screaming with excitement than sitting on our own in afar way place.

Answer 2

I used to go as a kid. Every year....

it's a dump. Stay away from prestatyn and rhyl.....

Answer 3

I found a review site for you:

http://www.holidaywatchdog.com/15367-Den...

Here are some quotes from it:

"Turned up with an open mind, but within minutes the reality of this camp struck. Made to wait like a child for some room keys, the area you wait in stinks of damp & stale beer. Also the fact that you squelch on the carpet."

"Pleasantly surprised! Having read previous comments expected "h**l on Earth". We paid budget and no doubt we got budget - but it was a base and nothing else!"

"we had a first floor apartment reached up flight of concrete steps. the windows were filthy inside & out but we noticed all apartments were same! overall apaprtment was fine, somewhere to eat & sleep!"

Doesn't sound terrible, but up to you. Have a good one whatever you do!  

Answer 4

I'm with Ellie--let Christmas be enjoyed with family, loved ones and friends. If completely alone, then anywhere different would be fun, even a place that's not the absolute best.  

Answer 5

Sorry never have, read reviews of the hotel your staying at and look online for pictures!
