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.

Could do with another block of toilets

We arrived at 3pm and there was a queue, rude old People pushing their wives out of the car to stand in a queue so no one behind could push in and scowling at the staff because their were not quick enough for them - pathetic. The site is quite a way out from Brighton and you do need to get the bus. Asda and the marina is a good 30 minute walk and looks a bit deserted. The site could do with more toilets in the far end of the site as where we were there was a stench of urine, obviously people having a wee in the hedges. There is no dog walking area just a postage stamp where they have to walk at least 10 minutes to get to and by then they have already had a poo and wee on the way. No appropriate. The site was looked after by staff but it was too much Like a concrete carpark for my liking, I wouldn’t go back.

Darren and Amanda - superstars!!

Just wished to commend Darren and Amanda for being so kind and caring when my father was unwell whilst at the site. They both went above and beyond to ensure he was okay and even after he was feeling better continued to check-in on him and my mum. Their kindness meant a lot to my parents - making them feel like a welcomed and valued part of the community, whilst away from home. I too have camped on numerous occasions and they are always super helpful, patient, and hospitable. They are passionate about their work, and ready to go the extra mile to ensure your stay is extra special. They certainly have the brilliant basics down and their magic touches continue to shine through on each visit. They are an absolute credit to the Caravan and Motorhome Club and they are very blessed to have such a great couple working for them! Keep up the good work Darren and Amanda :-) PS - Steve is also an absolute star - always a delight to see and have a chat to and ready to lend a hand if necessary!

Everything you would want in a caravan site.

Recently returned from Brighton. Site was fantastic. Wardens were spot on and friendly. Always happy to help. Although the site was busy when we were there, the facilities were plentiful. Never had to queue for a shower etc and they were always clean. Site is a 30-40 min walk along the seafront to Brighton pier, so a great location. There is an electric train about 10 min walk from site which takes you to the pier too. Lidl was a 10 min walk, few min drive from the site, as is Asda, which has a petrol station too. As many have mentioned, road to the site was terrible when we arrived. Huge potholes, but they were mostly repaired during our stay, so exiting was a lot more comfortable. All in all a superb site in a superb place. Look forward to coming back.

Convenient and ideal for all types of stays

Stayed here for 4 nights. Despite the previous review, I found the wardens very helpful and courteous not only in reception but also when out and about on site, The site was up to CAMC usual standard with lots of choice of pitches, as well as experience freedom pods and tents allowed in a special camp field. Loved the little patisserie van on site - nice touch. Other campers were respectful of quiet times and speed limit. My only complaint (which isn’t the wardens fault) is the road leading up to the site. It has two massive pot holes which are avoidable due to camper vans and what appears to be some illegal campers parked alongside the road. We had to drive over these pot holes at less than 5mph otherwise they would do serious damage to our car and caravan. It doesn’t help that you hit a pot hole and then have two speed bumps to navigate. Brighton council should resurface the road, as well as tackling the illegal parking/camping of some camper vans / caravans.

Rude wardens

It is a nice clean site let down by rude wardens. There was no hot water at one of the toilet blocks. When I told the female warden she said " we know, an engineer is coming g today". What she meant to say was " we are really sorry about this. An engineer is due today so hopefully it will be fixed later". There was no toilet roll in the 4 mornings we was there. This is not acceptable for the price being charged.
