Inside the UK’s ‘best holiday park’ with all-inclusive drinks, shows and activities

Potters, which has camps in Norfolk and Essex, has been rated five-stars across the board in a Which? poll of consumers, beating out classics such as Butlin’s, Pontin’s and Centerparcs

The UK’s best holiday park has been revealed thanks to its all-inclusive packages, ‘West End’ style shows, activities and boating lake. While the likes of Butlins, Center Parcs and Pontins are renowned for their popular parks, one rival park has pipped them to the post in new rankings.

Potters in Norfolk and Essex has been operating for more than 100 years and claims it was the first-ever holiday park, opened by Herbert Potter after he won £500 in a competition. It’s also the best, according to members of the British public, who gave it an overall score 88% in a Which? rundown of the best and worst parks around. Cleanliness, quality of accommodation, customer service, facilities, food and drink, entertainment and value for money were all worth five-stars, the Which? survey found.

“It only has two locations, in Norfolk and Essex, and both are all-inclusive with everything (including alcoholic drinks) thrown in. Guests thought it was a good deal, awarding Potters five stars for value for money,” Which? writes. “In fact, it clinched full marks in every category – including entertainment (with West End-inspired shows) and facilities including a rifle shooting range and boating lake. As one happy camper put it: ‘They offer a great service and I loved the whole experience.’ “Potters is an upscale affair – with absolutely everything included.”

One of the biggest draws of the holiday park is its entertainment offering which is led by the Potters Live Band, features shows the park claims are “West End quality” in the Atlas Theatre and live music out on the South Terrace when the sun is shining. In terms of activities there is buckets to get stuck into for kids and teenagers, including archery, welly wanging, climbing, a giant swing, an inflatable obstacle course and laser tag. For adults, clay pigeon shooting, bowls and boules may tempt.
