Advantages: Beautiful countryside views, peaceful and log cabins are fab! Disadvantages: Quiet setting - too quiet for some, on site facilities limited
have to re-heated again the next time you turned it on taking another 16 hours and using more electricity! The electricty is by a meter that is paid at the end of your stay, as previously mentioned. We thought we would run a massive bill with having the hot tub, but the bill at the end of the week was £45.00 total. This was for all the electricity in the cabin. We did not think this was bad split between us, as we were expecting it to be alot more! It was great for the kids to use during the day, but well worth it for the adults after they've gone to bed!
LOCATION
Hartland Forest is in DEVON not CORNWALL! If you leave the site onto the A39 and turn left Cornwalls border is 3 miles away!
I must say it is very secluded in the sense local shops and supermarkets are a good drive away. Bideford was about 20 mins away to access a town ...
Advantages: A respected MP3 player with a touch screen, mail, weather, stocks, etc. Disadvantages: Slow Internet applications, DRM restricted music, no Linux compatibility.
I've found my iPod touch a brilliant device, very versatile and useful. The iPod touch has a brilliant battery life, with up to 20 hours of music playing and around 3½ hours of video, truly making it a device which you can carry around as basically a PDA.
With the very reasonably priced January Software Update, the Notes, Stocks, Weather and Mail applications are added to the application list. Notes allows you to keep short text-based messages on your iPod touch.
Stocks allows you to keep an eye on any company's stock markets, very useful if you've invested in a few company and need to keep up to date on the market very quickly.
The Weather application allows you to keep an eye out on the weather for multiple towns at once. You simply type in the name of the town and it gives you a list of towns with that name. Select ...
Advantages: In the middle of nowhere Disadvantages: In the middle of nowhere with no facilities!
Unfortunately this was not an experience of a lifetime. It may be we chose the wrong year. 2008! The park is described as Hartland Forest Golf and Leisure Parc, however there were no signs of leisure to be seen anywhere. There was a A4 sign pinned to a derelict room stating the bar is closed for 2008 and another sign on the golf club house asking people not to enquire with regards to the leisure facilities at the parc. All in all not a welcoming prospect. The site is extremely remote and you are 2 miles to the nearest public house (along a remote single lane track) and 8 miles from any other leisure facilities. For a supermarket you haver to travel to Bude or Bideford. The accommodation although nice and roomy with all necessary equipment smelt damp throughout our stay, probably not helped by the damp summer.
The site has closed during ...
