Nice site - usual high standard of facilities and friendly club staff. We were not there in the school holidays so perhaps why quieter etc. Not the usual "car park" pitches, they're sprinkled around the grounds of the old garden, much prettier. Took the dog - nice walk down the dog walk to Catsfield (it's about 1 and a quarter miles down a good track through the countryside) where there's a dog friendly pub for lunch. We had dog on a long lead which she's used to, but as another reviewer said, if yours wants to free roam you may have a problem - there are signs saying gamekeepers carry guns!! Battle Abbey is English Heritage and dogs are admitted (except in the gatehouse display). Pretty much all ruins but the audio recording made an informative few hours walking the battlefield and site ruins. Admission was about £11 for non members (bit pricey maybe, take your own view) Battle village again most shops happy with dogs - not a great deal there but a few interesting bits to while away an hour and have tea. Hastings old town good. Quirky anitquey / bric a brac type shops, pubs all OK for dogs. Interesting little fisherman's museum (again pooch OK) - free admission (asks for a donation). Not big, but interesting. We spent a pleasant few house in the Old Town. Parking about £6
