Exciting news: we’ve introduced staggered lodge entry times

Lodge entry times vary by the type of lodge you’ve booked.  Whether you’re staying in one of our luxurious Treehouses or a cosy Woodland Lodge, your arrival experience is tailored to your accommodation. Here’s what to expect:

  • Treehouses: access from 1pm
  • Exclusive Lodges: access from 2pm (no change)
  • Forest Lodges, Hotels & Apartments: access from 3pm
  • Woodland Lodges: access from 4pm (no change)

You can still arrive on village from 10am on your arrival day, park in the car park and enjoy everything from the Subtropical Swimming Paradise to cycle hire and many other activities. This change only affects the time your lodge will be ready.

Changes to lodge names

Following guest feedback, we’ve made some changes to our lodge names. Guests felt that the name ‘Executive’ didn’t sound family-friendly, was too similar to ‘Exclusive’, and didn’t reflect the Center Parcs experience – so we’re pleased to introduce a new name: Forest Lodge.
