If you want to take the whole family on holiday, and keep everybody happy, then I
have found just the place for you. I recently went with a group of friends to stay at
the Greenwood Holiday Village, which is open from May until October.
Built in the centre of a forest, Greenwood is a great place to stay whatever the
weather. Its main attraction for families is the indoor World of Water, where young
and old can have fun in the different pools. Some of these, however, are for serious
swimmers only.
For sporty people, the Country Club offers tennis, squash and badminton. If your
children are too young to join in these sports, there are activity clubs. Greenwood is
a good place for families as it is traffic-free — you explore on foot or by bike. Some
people complained that this was inconvenient, but I was pleased to be out in the
fresh air. For evening entertainment, there are shows and cinemas
Accommodation is in a variety of apartments of different sizes. These have up to
four bedrooms, a kitchen and a bathroom, as well as a dining area. Before going, I
thought the apartments might not be big enough for all of us, but ] was pleasantly
surprised — it was not too crowded at all.
T'll definitely go back to Greenwood next year. Why don’t you give it a try? Visit
their website for further information now!
