Everything was first class. Every single member of staff from reception, cleaners, gardeners were amazing and made us feel so welcome. We arrived in a fifth wheel caravan and they went over and above to make sure that we had the best and most suitable site for our large rig.
The campsite is so clean and so well spaced out. The location is amazing and the on-site café is just the cherry on top - first class food.
Thank you for making our stay so memorable.

Third time here and another great stay
This was our third visit to this lovely site. The site itself is well laid out and well maintained by the friendly site team who really do appear to enjoy their job. The proximity to Brighton which means you can walk, cycle or take a bus is a real draw. The site is on the edge of the South Downs where there are scenic walks or bike rides. Highly recommend a walk to Rottingdean along the undercliff walk. A real bonus for this site is Philippes patisserie at the site gate. In addition to homemade pastries, cakes and coffee he does a takeaway service in the service evenings - all expertly cooked by Philippe and very reasonably priced. He has tables and chairs where you can take your own wine and sit and eat to the accompaniment of some relaxing music in the evening if you prefer. We will be back again next year without a doubt as this one of our favourite sites!
Fantastic family week!
Just spent a fantastic week here with our son and daughter-in-law, children and her parents who all came over from Germany. We stayed in our motorhome while they stayed in a glamping pod and cabin. We all loved this site and found the wardens the friendliest and most helpful we have ever experienced. Nothing was too much trouble. The site is extremely well-maintained and spotlessly clean. Our German in-laws were very impressed and said it was the best campsite they’ve ever been to. High praise in deed! The icing on the cake was having the food vendor Phillipe open 7 days a week at the beginning of the site. We enjoyed a memorable coq au vin sitting outside his van in the sunshine on Thursday evening. Can highly recommend - and no washing up! We’ll be back. x

Brighton Club Campsite 'our local drop in'
Either 200 Miles or 20 Miles, although we live in East Sussex and Brighton is accessible to us by various travel options, we enjoy staying at the Brighton site with its Friendly Team and the clean and well maintained facilities. There are many things that we enjoy about the Brighton Site, and despite its secluded and peaceful surroundings, it is only a short walk to the Seafront and the Marina and for those who enjoy a walk, the City Centre and walk along Brighton Promenade is a pleasant and safe walking option. There is Good access from the site heading east and across the South Downs, or just to sit and enjoy the surroundings, which are always nicer when the Sun makes an appearance. We look forward to returning soon for a little 'Our Time' without the hassle and thought of a long drive ...
Lovely site
Returned here after a couple of years break. It looks like the site has had more improvements in the meantime. We couldn't fault the site very friendly staff and the facilities and site was spotless. There is a catering set up now near the entrance so we didn't need to bring food. Plenty of walks too from the park just outside to up on the downs so enough to wear us and the dog out. Tbh we we knackered from walking to town around the lanes and back. There's always plenty to do here and looking forward to our next stay. We'll done to the staff running this site
Lovely site but have standards slipped
This was our first visit to Brighton club site and apart from the weather it ticked all the boxes. Wardens were pleasant and helpful and facilities were clean and well prepared. The location is very good with a short walk to the beach/marina and good access to a wonderful bus service that can take you everywhere and frequently ,we went to Eastbourne.
What wasn't quite right was the presence of a works van marked up as some form of roofing company together with an accompanied pick up truck that went missing all day and appeared each evening. The distasteful nature was a pile of rubbish that was unloaded from the vehicles at the back of the double wheel based caravan. The pile got bigger during the days we were there and was at one point were birds were picking at its contents. It would be inaccurate to say staff were unaware of it.Clearly not holiday makers .I had to look up the fact that the club had changed the rule about marked up works van but there we have it.Club site fees are not the cheapest and I know things like this did upset others on this site when we were there.

Our favourite club site yet.
Stayed here for 2 weeks in Jan. This is one of the club sites that has had a refurb and it looks fab. First thing we want to say about our stay here is how hard the wardens work they were always on the go and its thanks to them that this site remains looking so great. Second thing we were most impressed with was the size of pitches, for a change on a caravan club site we weren't crammed in and there was plenty of room for our twin axle caravan car and an awning (although we didnt use ours this stay). We liked the site so much that we extended our 1 week stay to 2 weeks. We have a dog and although the onsite dog walk is practically non existent (it's a tiny patch of grass hidden behind the play area), this really didn't matter on this occasion as the site is in the middle of a park and walks up on the hills surrounding it. We enjoyed many walks - around the marina (although free parking if you chose to drive there), to Brighton, Rottingdean and just discovering the multitude of footpaths around the area, so for us it was a great site to be with a dog. Also supermarket very close. Don't let the approach down the steep hill past lots of traveller caravans put you off, this is a great site with great wardens in a great location. Thanks Brighton!
My "go-to" all year round place to stay
I stayed at this Club site, in a small campervan, for 4 nights in mid-November and I recommend it highly.
The staff’s demeanour and friendliness spoke to me of them enjoying their work there and wanting to welcome you to share the place too.
The site nestles in a dip between the hills and when its windy on the tops or on the coast you are sheltered.
Within a 15-minute walk there are at least 3 bus stops with different routes and destinations:
• The Marina.
• Kemptown, Brighton City Centre, and Station.
• East to Eastbourne passing through Seaford for Cuckmere Haven and the Seven Sisters.
• West to Worthing.
On the bike its only 10 minutes to the varied and independent Kemptown shops and watering holes. I loved the small independent bakery for warm fresh bread at 7:00 am!
For “cold water” heroes the sea at Brighton seems less prone to sewage and pollution than other places and there’s the newly opened “Sea Lanes” between the Marina and Brighton Pier where you can swim in a heated open-air pool.
The beautiful Seaford Lido is open weekend mornings
Buses to Eastbourne are frequent giving you options to walk across the Seven Sisters or down to Cuckmere Haven.
Or you could wander the Laines and take in the entertainments in Brighton centre.
There are frequent trains to London taking roughly an hour and with a Senior Railcard and Freedom Pass the journey cost me £12.50 return.
This accessible and sheltered Brighton Club Site provided the amenities and comforts you expect and to have such fun, in the middle of November, makes it my “go to” all year-round place to stay.
November stay
4 nights Mon to Fri in late Nov with a motorhome. We chose a spacious pitch away from the football ground and had a nice view. The site was quiet on arrival but filled up by Fri. Plenty to do without driving anywhere. Supermarkets within walking distance. Arrival day explored marina area. 2nd day walked to and from Brighton and visited the Royal Pavilion. 3rd day took the bus to Eastbourne. The 12a to Eastbourne is caught from the local Marine Gate bus stop but the faster limited stop 12x has to be caught from the Paston Place bus stop midway between the site and Brighton. 4th day went for a pleasant circular walk from the site to Rottingdean which is worth visiting and discovered the hidden gem of Kippling Gardens. The Sea Spray take away Café at Rottingdean was good. Didn’t use the bikes but there is a good opportunity to do so on Route 2 and the undercliff coastal path. We treated ourselves to a beef bourguignon and roast vegetable & potato takeaway from Chef Phillipe’s gazebo & trailer at the site entrance and, to set us up for the journey home, coffee and a pastry on the last morning. Both were excellent and freshly made in his trailer. Out of season he is closed on Mon & Tue but open the rest of the time.
