Until last year, I had never been to a holiday park of any variety. So my first experience was Center Parcs and I loved that holiday so very much. To be no more than an hour and a half from home but to feel like you were in the middle of nowhere felt magical; lots of things to do and the privacy and freedom of your own space in the forest.
With the prospect of a week off and little to do we booked a very last minute trip to the brand new CP. An 8.30am booking for day of arrival. We panic packed what we needed and got in the car and we drove. Living in East Anglia, our landscape is quite literally flat. Our drive there was a surprise, blind spots and inclines, now I know Bedfordshire isn't known for it's hilly landscape but this was enough for us to breathe a sigh of "we're on holiday" relief.
The new facilities are excellent and well thought out. We stayed in an apartment which was perfectly positioned in the fun but we were still able to cook and enjoy our privacy. For once we didn't hire bikes as everything was more than accessible on foot. I would recommend a short break to Woburn Forest, it wasn't as equipped as say Elvenden, but the brand-spanking new facilities certainly made up for it.
For someone who doesn't get much forest, it's a lovely little break.
