Holidaymakers in the Wye River caravan park are up in arms after park operators failed to properly warn them of a gastro outbreak at the site.

Upon arrival at the popular Great ocean road park campers were handed a leaflet saying there had been an outbreak of gastro, but the staff were quote ‘all over disinfecting the bathrooms and keeping everything clean.’

Some holidaymakers said they should have been contacted before they arrived at the park, and many had to cut holidays short when family members fell ill.
