Family's West Country holiday 'ruined' by ant infestation and theft at caravan park

A family visiting Cornwall for the first time say their holiday was 'ruined' by an ant infestation, a dirty caravan and an unresolved theft, adding that they are yet to receive an apology from the caravan park for their experience. Kayleah Michaelson and her fiancé Daniel Jarvis took their two children - Teddy, two, and seven-month-old Poppy - on a week long stay at Perran Sands Holiday Park in Perranporth with other members of Kayleah's family.

Kayleah told Cornwall Live that she and her siblings had holidayed at Haven-owned caravan parks around the UK when they were young, an experience she wanted to share with her own children. This time the family chose Cornwall as a surprise for her grandparents who had always wanted to visit the country but had never managed to.

Twelve family members packed into three cars, travelled from Stoke-on-Trent and rented two caravans for their week's stay earlier this month. And, while it rained pretty much every day, Kayleah said it was other circumstances that accumulated in their negative experience at the park.
