Does not feel clean, feels quite worn and unmaintained. Rudest staff I have ever encountered, genuinely upsetting experience.

I drowned on the rapids as it pushed me under. I think the lifeguard helped me out, because cant remember much, i am not sure if she acted straight away or not, but the rest of the swimming pool is relaxing. Dont go out on rapids even you can swim a little as they too dangerous, i nearly died on them.

This Suntrioopical Paradise is inside Elveden Centre Park at Theford. Lockers are provided. This also is inside a large complex. Small children can splash in the water tell their hearts content. Their is a water shoot ride. Obviously you have to be on holiday here to enjoy the facilities.

Swimming is included in your stay. Not the biggest Center Parcs pool but this one is nice. Many slides and a kids section. Outdoor pool is accessible via an indoor swimming area so no need to run outside if its cold out :) Changing rooms are clean and new. Lots of single and family rooms, never had to wait to find an empty one. There are also disabled changing. Toilets are clean inside the swimming pool. Free showers you can use, some are hot others can be stone cold, check before stepping under! Showers can be a pain to trigger as they are touchless but don't respond half the time. Lockers are free and lock using your Center Parcs wrist band. If you forget your locker number there are devices on the wall. Lots of hair dryers. There are 2 swimming gear dryers, they are now free to use, and will spin dry very well (Still hang up to dry when back at your villa). Would be nice if more are provided as there can be quite a queue. The shop for swimwear is crazy expensive! Make sure to bring your own gear.
