The staff were very nice about it, redirected us and told us that we were most welcome to come back and use their facilities. At St Helen\u2019s they were also really friendly, and it was no trouble at all when we asked for extra bedding. They made sure we had everything we needed including information (leaflets) about what was available on the Island.

There was an outdoor pool but this was not open, and a sign saying that it was not supervised. There was a games room which had a teddy machine with a prize every time \u2013 much to the delight of my youngest when he \u201cwon.\u201d It also had some other machines that needed money, including food and games.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/sthelensgamesroom.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-16437\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/sthelensgamesroom-300x225.jpg?resize=300%2C225\" alt=\"Sun holidays St Helen's games room\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/54.155.211.39\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/sthelensgamesroom.jpg?resize=300%2C225 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/54.155.211.39\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/sthelensgamesroom.jpg?w=600 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">There were two play areas and one of which was immediately in front of our caravan. With the added bonus of the fact that cars are not allowed beyond the reception area it meant that we could give all of the children the freedom to play outside without us (as we could see them through the window). The children made friends with the other children and really enjoyed their time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/st-helens-park.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-16438\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/st-helens-park-225x300.jpg?resize=225%2C300\" alt=\"Sun holidays st helens park\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/54.155.211.39\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/st-helens-park.jpg?resize=225%2C300 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/54.155.211.39\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/st-helens-park.jpg?w=450 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">There was also a lovely wildlife area to learn and explore on the site, as well as lots of National Trust areas a short walk away.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/nature_area_sthelens.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-16439\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/nature_area_sthelens-300x225.jpg?resize=300%2C225\" alt=\"nature area st helens\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/54.155.211.39\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/nature_area_sthelens.jpg?resize=300%2C225 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/54.155.211.39\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/nature_area_sthelens.jpg?w=600 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Not far away is a beautiful beach which has rock pools and beautiful sand \u2013 we even went in the sea in April!

There were two bedrooms, one double with an en suite, and one with two single beds. The other two people had to sleep on the sofas (which turned into a bed). I will say that they were really firm beds. There was plenty of storage, mirrors and plug sockets. It was all really clean when we arrived (including toilet cleaner down), and a vacuum and broom provided. There were plenty of seats with a separate dining area.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Included were cups, glasses, bowls, plates, egg cups, milk sugar, glass bowls, saucepans, toaster, bread bin, cooking spoons and spatulas, cutlery, tin open, casserole dishes, measuring jug, chopping board, baking tray, colander, grater, bucket, dustpan and brush, clothes airer, tv, fridge, and the cooker has a separate grill and oven.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/st_helens_beach.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-16441\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/st_helens_beach-300x225.jpg?resize=300%2C225\" alt=\"sun holiday st helens beach\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/54.155.211.39\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/st_helens_beach.jpg?resize=300%2C225 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/54.155.211.39\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/st_helens_beach.jpg?w=600 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">If you want a place to stay then you cannot get cleaner and friendlier than here.
