Five Night Winter Break
We arrived at the Brighton CC Site in the knowledge that the weather was changing from calm mild conditions to a rather windy weekend. This long weekend was very timely for us and we had been looking forward to some "time out". We enjoyed a gentle stroll down to the beach on our first day following a 4 hour drive to site. The overnight weather forecast predicted 60 to 80 mph winds as Storm Imogen struck the south coast. Sure enough, we sustained 2 full days of windy weather. The site is slightly sheltered in the valley surrounded with sports fields. The nearby park areas were ideal for dog walking and the local public transport was a short distance away. This site was very clean and tidy. The bushes and trees had been cut back and the grassed areas protected from use by vehicles, so on arrival the site looked amazing. We were impressed by the security and the amount of lighting on the site. We were greeted by a very friendly team of wardens and we were given a brief guide and map of the site and surroundings. We were very impressed by the cleanliness of the facilities and we watched the wardens clearing up litter that had blown round the site during the storm. We pitched at the far end of the site which proved to be very quiet and there were a few vacant pitches around us so we felt we had extra space. Thanks to the wardens and the CC for setting such high standards on our winter sites. We can't wait until our next break at Easter.
