A note from the site themselves...
Hendra has something for everyone, to entertain all ages. One of the most special things about Hendra is that it has been run by the same family for over 50 years, now ran by the third generation. Many of our guests came to Hendra when they were children and now are bringing their own children or grandchildren! It is lovely to read and hear about our guests memories of Hendra.
Hendra cares about being a sustainable business, so we can keep providing memorable family holidays for generations to come. We have renewable energy sources on the park, as well as providing a great environment for the local wildlife. Our grounds are often praised by guests, with our beautiful groomed gardens, wildflowers, shrubs, trees and expansive green areas.

Large Tent - Electric Grass PitchesSep 2023
This was our first time staying with Hendra and they did not disappoint! Staff were amazing in every part of the park. The shows in the evening were fantastic and the pitches and facilities were immaculate. We loved every second and are sad to be going home.
My daughter especially took a shine to one of the entertainers, Molly. Molly went above and beyond with my daughter and all of the children and guests there, as did all of the entertainers. She was very sad to be leaving Molly, but is excited to hopefully see her again next year.
We're looking forward to maybe spending 2 weeks with you next year as a week just isn't enough.
Lovely, clean and friendly park
