Mike Harris, Director at the AA's Holiday Centre of the Year, Warren Farm, said,
During our annual inspection, this year Warren Farm once again received the highest rating of five Platinum Pennants, an accolade that we are always very proud of.
We are absolutely thrilled to now also be the AA’s Holiday Centre of the Year. To win such a prestigious, national award is fantastic. Thank you so much to all of our wonderful hard-working staff, our loyal customers and supporters!
The annual AA inspection is incredibly thorough and during this year’s visit to Warren Farm the inspector was particularly impressed with the new en suite seasonal pitches, additional EV charging points and ‘spotless’ washroom facilities.
