    “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.
