Potters Resort Hopton
We’ve just returned from an amazing break at Potters Resorts Hopton-on-Sea, our happy place! We went with friends Julie Batch and Bob and had such a fantastic time that we barely took any photos — we were far too busy enjoying ourselves.
We collected lots of badges (always great fun!) and of course won a Boo Bear. The incredible West End–style shows performed by the Potters Theatre Company were absolutely outstanding — such talent and professionalism.
The amazing entertainment team Jack Jenkins Emily Takman James R Hearn, Matty, Jo B, Rachel Baade Brian Graves, Faye & Becky thanks for all the laughs.
Kate Elizabeth for our Mamma Mia dance class and water keep fit.
Late night sets from Aaron Bolton, Sion, Millie, Annabelle,Brandon and Reece just amazing.
The service from all the staff was truly five star from start to finish, and the all-inclusive experience makes everything so easy and relaxing. We packed so much into our stay — loads of activities, plenty of quizzes, and lots of laughter with friends.
We’ll definitely be back again soon! 💛

A Great weekend away in the New Year
It was a very enjoyable weekend break at Five Lakes. We stayed in the Hotel this time and it was a lovely experience. Room was large and had everything you need.
Being All Inclusive is great the only thing you pay extra for is Bingo, Hoy Bingo and Cocktails plus some drinks not included.
Food, Service, Entertainment and all Staff are always there to help.
Plenty of things to do to keep you occupied all day.
Or you can just chill out if you want to there are plenty of places to sit in and read or chat to other Guests.
Well done Potters definitely 5*****
Look forward to returning soon.
A great value inclusive holiday
Pleasant clean accommodation great staff and food four meals a day if you need and great entertainment
5 stars
Our 'Village' room was comfortable, large and had a great view. Food options were great, lots to choose from. Entertainment was spectacular as any West End Show! The games room has a variety of things to do, fun quizzes in the Garden Bar. The Staff are exceptionally friendly and always make you feel welcome! Joseph, Ben N, Ben S, and all the team went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. An absolute gem of a place. I would come every week if I could. Highly recommend.
What a fabulous 4 days at Potters
What a fabulous 4 days at Potters. Absolutely everything and everybody without exception were wonderful. All the staff were so helpful, professional, friendly and did everything to ensure we enjoyed our stay. And so much to do during the day - sports, quizzes, competitions, swimming, jacuzzi, steam room, sauna, entertainers, bingo, spa treatments, or just sit back and enjoy the atmosphere. And not forgetting the west-end standard evening shows. Amazing!
Simply the Best.
As always, Potters did not disappoint.
So much so, we have booked again for next month. There are so many things to do, you just can't fit everthing into one long weekend. Food is great, entertainment brilliant. Im a Friends of Potters member so I get to hear about offers. Its a win, win.
Instantly relaxed

Entertainment and activities throughout the day.

Beauty Parlour you pay for naturally if you want something extra.
Food is delicious and plentiful.
Drinks soft and alcohol, coffees, tea,hot chocolate is all inclusive.
A small shop on the premises to buy newspapers, sweets, gifts,etc.
Once on the Resorts there is everything you need.
Hopton has a hotel to reach from indoors, the bungalows are a short walk away from the main buildings which gor us is fine.
All staff are friendly and helpful, we have been to Hopton a few times and 5 lakes once so far,but we are definitely coming back again soon.
Everything about potters is amazing.

We had the most wonderful time, only our 2nd visit but so wish we had visited before, my husband has dementia so feel its such a safe place to visit.
We came with friends this time, so enjoyed all the quizzes, pebble painting and all the wonderful shows.
All the staff are brilliant nothing is to much trouble.
Callum who was our waiter at table 163 served us he was a lovely young man. The entertainment is certainly first class. Hopefully we will return soon.

Booked it for my "big cheeky" Birthday…
Booked it for my "big cheeky" Birthday holiday and it was so enoyable.
Best time ever
Such a welcoming place! Great entertainment all day everyday but if you just want to relax somewhere quiet that option is also available.
Food fantastic and lots of choice.
Had the most enjoyable weekend.
Good food
Good food, good entertainment with plenty to do in the daytime as well. Rooms are lovely & the cleaning staff work really hard to keep everywhere spotless. Been to both resorts now & will definitely be returning this year.
Jumping insects in my bed
Jumping insects in my bed. I slept on the sofa. Reported issues to reception. Bed linen changed but was bitten the next morning on my feet. Very upsetting.
Entertainment was very tacky at times and vulgar, derogatory comments aimed mostly at women. The trained dancers and singers were excellent.
Food hall was like a school dinner hall packed. Food was luke warm and not always enjoyable.
I would not go back to Hopton on Sea. Unfortunately we were really disappointed. It was for my husbands 70th birthday.
Hopton on Sea - Tacky
I found insects in my bed. They jumped. I reported it to the receptionist in the morning. Our bed was changed but next morning I was bitten. I slept on the sofa one night instead of the bed.
Entertainment was tacky at times and vulgar. Very outdated entertainment at the expense of women. Really unpleasant, I got up and walked out.
The trained singers and dancers are great.
Dining room is like a school dinner hall. Unpleasant, overcrowded and food served barely warm.
I would not return to Hopton but Five lakes was far better and we enjoyed it there.
My Husband and I stayed at 5 Lakes…
My Husband and I stayed at 5 Lakes resort and had an amazing stay. Venue and grounds are beautiful. All staff polite, friendly and welcoming. Food plentiful and good choice of drinks even if you don’t drink alcohol. Accommodation great. We stayed in the village and housekeeping great. Daytime and evening entertainment fantastic.
We have been to both resorts
We have been to both resorts, and the standard of what is on offer is second to none, we will keep returning as we do about three times a year.
Potters resorts both Hopton and 5 lakes…
Potters resorts both Hopton and 5 lakes have been our chosen short break holidays coming at least once a year for the past 20 years.
Our grandchildren have grown up with wonderful holidays at Hopton. As a couple it was the first time trying 5 Lakes and am pleased to say the standard I was excellent and maybe better for a couple.
