  • "We've just enjoyed a fabulous week's stay at the mallard."

    The lodge was spotless on arrival! With lovely helpful touches like tea and coffee to get you started, snacks, washing up liquid, cloths and tea towels. Not to mention a toilet roll in each bathroom! Luxury! The onsite facilities were also top notch! The lakeside bar was only open on our first night but staff were extremely friendly and super helpful. We would have been back every night if it was open (only open Fri/sat/sun outside local school holidays). Our son loved the two play areas as well as the telephone box of books, dvds and games/puzzles to borrow during our stay! The lake was beautiful and perfect for an evening walk! My husband was gutted he'd not brought his clubs for the golf! It looked great! All round a lovely stay which we would highly recommend! Can't wait to return!

    Thank you so much for your kind review. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay with us and hope to welcome you back (with golf clubs) soon! I will ensure this feedback is passed on to our whole team and if there are any questions, queries or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thanks again for your lovely review and for choosing to stay with us at Discover Parks. Very best wishes from all the team. Property Owner

  • "This was our second stay at Mallard."

    The caravan itself was exceptionally clean, very comfortable and equipped with everything you need. It has a lovely outlook towards the golf course. The park itself is immaculately maintained and inspite of a very wet week even walks around the lake with the dog were very enjoyable without coming back muddy as I had expected. The area has plenty to offer from pretty villages, interesting towns and lovely scenery. All in all a wonderful relaxing holiday. We will be back.

    Thank you for booking to come back to Pearl Lake! We do hope you enjoyed both your stays with us and look forward to welcoming you back again. We will be upgrading this holiday home to a new one in 2025, so please have a look out for updates! We are so pleased you made the most of the park and the local area and hope your dog enjoyed the walks too and the relaxing holiday too! Very best wishes, from all the team at Discover Parks.

  • "The caravan we stayed in was immaculate, it was larger than we expected and the small welcome hamper was a lovely touch."

    The site is quiet and well kept and we liked seeing the geese in the mornings, we ate at the clubhouse one night and the food was tasty and plentiful. The location of the site is great for visiting some of the other beautiful surrounding towns and villages.
