Our second visit in 3 years with three grandchildren. (Last time we had 6 grandchildren in two waves of 3!) They just love it here! Great for cycling and scootering around the park in safety, plus an enclosed games field (a bit worn and dusty but that was due to the dry weather) next to the playground. Being mid-August the site was very busy but the staff stay so cheerful and friendly and keep the facilities so clean. A real credit to the Warden and his team.

We went to this site on recommendation of friends, who have 2 dogs. We booked a 2 night weekend with our 4 dogs and on arrival found that there were very limited pitches left, and ended up some 200 meters away from the kids play area. Being during school holidays, the site was full of family's and the noise level coming from the play area was almost unbearable! We then attempted to take our dogs for their usual off lead walk in the surrounding countryside. Only to be stopped by the local gamekeeper, who had driven up the lane towards us at an alarming speed, and told in no uncertain terms that all dogs had to be kept on leads due to the Pheasants (waiting to be slaughtered I suspect). My dogs are gun dogs and very well behaved and need off lead exercise. There was also the early morning sound of motorcycles racing along the nearby A271 and the local hunt decided to run their hounds early Saturday morning resulting in a total cacophany of barking dogs. This site is perfect for families but anyone wanting a quiet time or anyone with dogs need not apply! We shall not return, even out of high season.
This Club site is immaculately clean and well kept - even though it is on the site of a long gone stately home. Our pitch was in the old stable yard and was non awning due to the cobbles and sets. Dogs have to remain on lead whilst on the dog walk which was a little disappointing as they do like to run about. Scotney Castle is fantastic and well worth a visit. Battle Abbey is expensive to get in if you are not English Heritage members but very enjoyable and informative. Hastings Old Town with the tall black net huts, quaint shops and cafe's and two funicular railways is the sort of day destination that keeps on giving. Bodium and Pevensey Castles are steeped in the history of the area. Great lunch, including a reasonable vegetarian selection, can be purchased at the Route 1066 cafe' - a bikers stop but all made welcome. Site full of rhododendrons of different colours and a play area for the grand children and a credit to the hard working wardens. Will definitely return
