LLANRHIDIAN HOLIDAY PARK/PURPLE BADGER avoid at all costs, they DO NOT clean the soft play, resulting in a baby getting hold of dirty food left in the soft play- ball pit, which adults cannot get into. The baby in question has a milk allergy and the food left had milk in it. When reported the site manger could not care, he was the rudest man I have ever met and definitely has short man syndrome. 2 follow up complaints have been ignored and told ‘I will not be dealing with this anymore’. AVOID AND DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY

Weekend in Ruda

We stayed in a lodge in Ruda. We did not receive a welcome pack or there wasn't a airfryer as listed.The decking was rotten and the guttering leaking.Also the doors inside wouldn't stay closed and none of the tv's in the bedrooms worked.We stayed in number 13.

Gold Bungalow

Was able to arrive early as accommodation had been cleaned and was ready for us. Very spacious with modern kitchen and three very good sized bedrooms, one full sized bathroom with dual ended bathtub and a smaller shower room with toilet and basin. On arrival I unpacked some food items and went to dispose of the packaging in the bins - rubbish and recycling. On opening the rubbish bin a very pungent smell of old cigarettes emitted from the bin. Phoned housekeeping and they came and replaced the bin. There were blinds up at all windows but the front door, which was fully glazed with clear glass, had the blinds removed due to previous damage. Had to request something to hang on the pole which was above the door. They bought a curtain later and hung it, it covered 75% of the door height. On unpacking our suitcases we found one of the bedside cabinet drawers had a previous guests underwear in them. Beds were comfortable. Staff were friendly. Being the holder of a Blue Badge I was able to use one of the four disabled parking bays opposite the accommodation. Two are for the bungalows adjacent to the parking bays and the other for anyone with a blue badge. They were not always empty. Further disabled parking bays close to the accommodations would be useful. Stayed here many times over the years and would come back again.

Beautiful place but absolutely…

Beautiful place but absolutely horrendous accommodation. We had a two bed chalet. When we arrived it was clear it had not been cleaned in a while since it was last used. Thankfully we always bring cleaning supplies on holiday. We found many spider and bug carcasses all around the chalet even on the kitchen counters! The bathroom sealant was full of black mould, the bathroom suite and kitchen were very dated, needed a complete overhaul. The curtains and nets didn’t even fit or properly cover the windows and the nets were cut ragged without care! Worst place I have stayed and we travel around the uk! We will return to Coombe Martin as it’s a beautiful place but will never stay with John Fowler holidays again! We ended up leaving a day early.

Static Caravan at Combe Martin Beach…

Static Caravan at Combe Martin Beach Holiday Park was disgusting. On arrival it smelt horrible. Inside was very unclean. Double bed was uncomfortable and after a couple of nights, i had pulled back the sheets to find a damp large urine stain. Mattress should of been disposed of. Lack of heating, we had to try to heat the caravan with putting the oven on. Mould in most rooms. if i could place the photos on here i would. i have how ever sent an email to the holiday park as well as the governing body for the holiday park for Health & Safety. Now awaiting for the holiday park to complete a 28 day investigation.

Ruda Caravan Park - Sept 2025

So, booking process great, email communication great. Now the park. First, 95% of the staff were great, welcoming, friendly and helpful. Second, our "plus" caravan was very old, dated, need some tlc but was clean enough (the wood floor was dirty) I expected better to be honest.Third, the pool complex was closed, we were offered the pool at another park 1.5 miles away, you couldn't pre book and it had a maximum capacity of 50. You can't walk as there are no paths and parking had to be paid for. We asked for a drink from the bar as good will but John Fowler customer services refused. Beach location is amazing. The site just needs investment, the bars are tired, the show lounge is tired, the arcade is tired and the caravan stock is tired. It's a shame, as the place could be amazing, will have to see what John Fowler Holidays invest in the park.
