Needs some TLC

Arrived just as the staff were clearing up prior to closing which resulted in a little wait until my presence was acknowledged. To confirm comments in a previous review, signposting/labelling is not a strong point. The CL field is not readily visible and not signposted but the camping/rally field is so it's easy to drive into the wrong field! The taps are labelled but the waste point is not labelled as being for both grey water and toilet emptying plus the drain is raised about 12" so if your grey water container is big and heavy you will struggle. The waste point is very slow draining and extremely smelly. This CL just needs a little TLC to make it that bit more pleasant. Proximity to the main A22 means low marks for peace & tranquillity

We loved it!

we have been down to Eastbourne once a month visiting an elderly relative but this was our first visit to Sharnfold. Very friendly welcome, the coffee shop is excellent as is the farm shop. The kids enjoyed the walk around the farm and we will def be visiting again. The previous review said the water taps were poorly signed, this has now been rectified and all is clear. Highly recommended by us!

Needs a good clean up

A pleasant site with a lot going for it, eg excellent farm shop on site, pub which serves food nearby and station not far away. BUT, the labelling of water supply was virtually non-existent and it was difficult to know which taps were for drinking water and which weren't. The tap that was labelled drinking water was close to a chemical disposable point that by the appearance and smell had not been serviced for months and was a health hazard. Fortunately there was another chemical disposal point adjacent to the public toilets a short walk away. Even labelling where the pitches were was non-existent. Made me wonder how often Caravan Club inspects CLs.

First CL

This was our first CL, having only been on Club Sites before. It's strange there are no ratings for this site, as it's a good site. The site is secluded beyond the main farm buildings, near the fishing lakes. Water & chemical waste on site with one toilet a little walk away (don't leave it too late). Good farm shop with fresh produce, a butchery, ready meals etc. There is a Café which also serves breakfast. PYO available on the farm. Plenty of walking nearby & the farm has it's own Farm Trail. Plenty of cycle friendly routes. Good pub adjacent to the farm that does a variety of dishes, most two for £10, including the Carvery. There is a lot of traffic noise as you are next to the A27. Check in was a bit strange with the assistant in the shop just directing us to the site without checking our booking and saying to pay when we left. When we did pay, we were not "in the book". It would have been nice for someone to say hello & check everything was OK. A pleasant stay & we will use this site again.
