Love this site

This was my fourth or fifth visit to this site…a fabulous location. To be fair I sometimes stay because I’m working in the area [Shoreham Port]. I say work as I prefer to stay here over the hotel option…because all year round it’s a holiday vibe - but that’s Brighton for you! This time I needed a little assistance with my barrier key [my error]…without asking for help one of the wardens came to help…whilst he was rightly firm with me [it was after the 10pm quiet zone], the next morning he took the time to check I was ok & sorted. Can’t fault him or any of the wardens who work hard to keep this site & facilities spotless. I believe the heavily pot holed entrance road is being attended to soon too. A definite one to visit & without question…I’ll be back!

Great Site, Great Location

We have just spent 2 nights at the site and could find no faults whatsoever. Checking in at reception was very easy with friendly staff. We were advised to select our own pitch (blue markers) which we did and my good lady advised the office of where we were whilst I got us set up The information leaflet we were given was excellent, very informative, with some great recommendations and we quickly found the bus stop to go into Brighton. The road into the site is okay but be aware, at the time of submitting this review, there are some very large potholes lurking so keep an eye open for them. I would suggest that if you are walking the road during darkness then a torch would be very beneficial and possibly prevent a visit to A&E! The site itself was very nice, the toilet/shower block we used was very clean. The grounds themselves were nice. There is a very frequent bus service just a short walk from the site into Brighton. Brighton has so much to offer with a plethora of independent shops in The Lanes, some excellent restaurants and cafes, the seafront itself and some great entertainment venues. We would definitely return to the site.

very clean site quiet easy walking distance to the bus stop and sea front

we stayed on this site for three nights, it was quiet and peaceful the facilities were very good, the staff were all very friendly and helpful. you can walk to the sea front and all along the prom, there is also a bus within easy walking. don't be put off by what looks like travellers caravans parked on the side of the road to access of the site, it will not affect your stay.

A lovely site

This was our second visit to this site, which we both like. The site is well maintained and the facilities blocks are spotlessly clean. The site staff are all friendly and helpful and do an excellent job of maintaining this large site. We were surprised to see there were no codes or keys for the toilet block doors as there are so many motorchomes and campervans parked on the approach road outside the site. It's an easy walk from the site to the Marina and seafront as well as walking in the opposite direction towards the South Downs. We will return to the site again.

Wonderful friendly site

There's no doubt this is a very well maintained, clean and well equipped site. The staff are especially friendly and put themselves out to be helpful. There are a couple of downsides though and not the fault of the campsite admin. The access road is badly potholed and unlit. This road is also home to several abandoned caravans and some off the grid campers. It's not a welcoming sight when you are approaching the official campsite. We are relatively new to caravanning and on this visit we were towing our small caravan behind our VW motorhome. The hard standings are not entirely level - I don't mind that but my wife is very susceptible to 'angle' when she sleeps so a fair bit of jiggling about was necessary to get everything level in the van. The surface is chipped stone, so when it came to erecting our new awning it was extremely difficult to get the pegs in. Fortunately I had some extra steel rock pegs that managed to penetrate. There is no onsite shopping which is a pity for those last minute essentials that almost everyone forgets. There is however a very nice pop-up cafe manned by Phillipe who produces pastries and croissants and excellent coffee in the morning. Brighton centre is a good 40 minute walk but it's a very pleasant one along the seafront and there are some good bus routes available if you don't want to take your vehicle off site. Brighton is such a jolly city and it's a pleasure to visit; lots of un and choices of bars and restaurants. Don't be put off by the access road; the camp staff and Brighton itself makes it all worthwhile.

Nice site, wrong location.

Just returned from 6 nights at Brighton Club site. Being formerly from Sussex, , I have walked past this site many times. Now living in Somerset it seemed the perfect place to stay when visiting family and friends in Sussex. The site is lovely and well laid out. The staff are the friendliest I have come across. We were greeted with a lovely smiley lady, even though they were very busy. They were still smiling the next day despite there being a long queue of arrivals before the indicated arrival time.. they definitely had their work cut out! The facilities are spotless as usual and our pitch was up on the top level in a quiet spot. The downside is the approach road. This is outside the Club’s control, but could be a big ‘put off’ as a first impression. The Travellers have been there for years, so was not a surprise to me. There actually wasn’t any there this time anyway apart from a couple of seemingly derelict caravans quite near to the site entrance. Half way through the week the council actually put a notice of eviction on them. The worst thing is the huge potholes. Great care is needed with a Motorhome or towing a caravan. We invited a couple of friends to visit for coffee. They are club members and only live in Burgess Hill. However, when asked we were told they would have to park in that lane. As it was too far for them to walk from there to our pitch, they did not come. I tried to speak to the staff about this, but they were very busy and I didn’t want to bother them. It is also quite a long way to walk to the Marina for shops, cafes and buses into Brighton and beyond. We don’t mind walking, but after doing an 8 mile organised walk on one day, I really didn’t want to have to walk into the Marina (about 25 minutes walk) just to get dinner. We had intended to use buses as there are plenty to everywhere, but ended up walking up and down that approach road several times, just to get anywhere and had to take the Motorhome off site when we had not planned to. Overall it’s a nice site, but I don’t think we will stay again, purely as the position isn’t brilliant.

Praise where Praise is due.

Just returned from a week's holiday. Excellent site. Toilets, shower blocks, bin areas,children's play area and whole site in general, all spotlessly clean which must be applauded with the amount of people on site. Wardens all extremely friendly, they never seem to stop but they still keep smiling. Only negative was the potholes in the lane entering campsite but this is out of the sites control. I'll be putting a posting on Brightons Web site.

Friendly, relaxing and great pitch size.

As Brighton virgins, we asked for recommendations for a pitch as we checked in, No33 a corner plot was recommended by the friendly on site team, they even smiled while emptying the bins. it was perfect for us and our Westie. The rabbits teased him a little. Friendly fellow campers. Clean facilities. Great little walk into the marina with our dog. The East Brighton cafe does a mean flat white, a short walk from the site with a grassed area for the dogs to make friends. Reasonable walk into Brighton, we cheated and used the miniature railway for the return trip. I was a little apprehensive reading reports about the approach road, we were there for a week and never encountered any problems and felt totally safe at all times. We will be back.

Very Nice Site

I have used this site quite a number of times and know Brighton well. I cannot agree with the previous reviewer at all, especially her disparaging comments regarding homeless people and older citizens (Jan x 2). As far as the site is concerned, it’s five star! To state it’s a dirty run-down concrete car park is very misleading and far from reality. The facilities, especially the toilet blocks are more than ample, always spotlessly clean and in good condition. The general maintenance of the site reaches a very high standard too. As for the wardens and staff, they are a credit to the club and, even when under pressure at peak times, deal with everything in a friendly and professional manner. It’s obvious the site has no control regarding what occurs beyond their boundary, and yes, unfortunately in recent years civic pride in Brighton has evaporated like a puddle in a heatwave, with parts now looking quite rundown. However, that is a matter for the local authority and politicians. I have walked to and from the site many, many times and have never felt, or been, threatened, abused, or intimidated. Sadly, I don’t think Brighton is any different from many UK towns these days but that should not put anyone off staying at this excellent site.
