A Chilled place to stay.
Beautiful grounds, the lake enlightens the site, especially when lit of an evening. Loved my Caravan, Clean, modern & had a very comfortable bed. Plenty of room. All the facilities you need on this site too. The staff were so friendly & helpful. This place is Central to all routes to visit the surrounding area’s. I will definitely stay at lakes Rookley again.

Nice place to stay
The caravan was well presented and clean. The resort was an ideal place to base our holiday and was within easy reach of all the places of interest we wanted to visit. Facilities at the resort were good but if you want to use the swimming pool book your slot when you arrive as there is limited availability. The co-op store just across the road from the resort is extremely useful for those essentials you have either forgotten or need. I advise taking some oven gloves if you intend to cook as these are not supplied.

Had a great stay at the Lakes. Lakeside lodge was spacious, clean and comfortable. Lovely log burner, however, no logs or firelighters provided which isn’t a problem but would be good if you could buy these on site. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and was a great base to explore the island. Would definitely return.
