Rated 3 out of 5 stars

The venue was very good, and the service from both Shearings' and Warner-Lakeside's staff was fantastic. But, and it's a Big But, the coach travel time to and from the venue - 7 hours to get there and nearly 8 to get back - was just awful. We were only going from Kent to Hampshire!. It was such a shame. Everything else was geared up to enable older and/or less able people to get full benefit from the facilities, but 7 hours of sitting on a coach, wiwth only one half hour break to stretch limbs, feed and water, and take care of other necessities, was exhausting and stressful. Sorry, Shearings - It was a five-day break. The three days in the middle were lovely.

The food was cold at times and the position of our dinning table was poor we could only watch the entertainment on a monitor. Having stayed at Cricket St Thomas las year we found a big difference and Lakeside is not for us.
