Incredible Value for Money
“Went with my other half for a festive break. It was our first time visiting bit we had a great time. The staff were so friendly and helpful, from the staff on the phones to all who made our weekend so special. Lovely, spacious bedroom which was spotlessly clean. Great choice of food and so much of it too. So many activities to try and amazing shows.”

Highly Enjoyable Festive Themed Break
“Outstanding staff and facilities. Good quality food and plenty off it. Really could not find anything to complain about. Hundreds of very happy guests made for a very pleasant three days break. Intended to visit a couple of attractions nearby but given the inclement weather found plenty to do onsite.”

First visit of many
Wow why haven't I been here before? This place has it all in abundance. Great all inclusive food and drink. Activities all day long and high class evening shows. We liked it so much we booked again for next year before we left. The staff were extraordinary and friendly. The entertainment staff are so talented and have you smiling and laughing all day long. We also did activities we have never done before such as archery and rally karts.

Simply the best
Having stayed with one of Potters' competitors for the last five years and noting their standard are sinking drastically, we thought we would try Potters Resorts on recommendation. What can I say but simply fantastic. Everyone who works at Potters does the name proud. It's unfair to single anyone out for individual credit because they all are everything you need to make the break memorable. The rooms, the food, the shows, everything is simply the best. Thank you one and all for making our break celebrating my wife's birthday one of great memories. We will be returning next year; as we loved it so much we rebooked straight away!

The best holiday in the UK
We visited last year and were overwhelmed with the quality and service they provide. This year was no different. From the restaurant staff to the bars, the entertainment staff and the shows... everything is at such a high standard and everyone is friendly and so helpful. The food is second to none and it's advised to start the diet after the break! You want for nothing and there is always something to do whatever time of day. Well worth the cost of the holiday as I didn't need to use my wallet at all. We can't wait to return soon.
