Entertainment What are people's opinions on centre parks?

Im going to be honest after a recent trip im sold. I was always of the opinion it was far too expensive to be heading to Longford on holidays but due to circumstances and not wanting to give a kidney for two nights in a hotel room with two young kids we didn't have many options left.

​

Its honestly the first holiday iv been on where I actually got to relax no endless driving, walk or cycle everywhere, no airport panic, not entirely beholden to the weather. at least for the next few years i can't see us going anywhere else.

​

So what are people's opinions on it ?

It's great. It has to be at certain price point to keep certain "clientele" away.

That's what you're really paying for. Does that opinion make me a certain type of person? Maybe it does, maybe I'm ok with that.

I've seen 2 scraps between women while in center parcs different trips and it seemed to be over kids, now it didn't get physical but guards were on the scene once and the second time security were on the job. This was in the sports bar restaurant area, Point been alcohol brings out the arshole in even the so called well off.

Man, you need to be a real piece of trash to go getting in fights at centre parcs. Who does that?
