Lovely site - shame the couldn't embrace the marathon
This is a perfectly good site. Facilities are to the normal high stand. Location is quite and only a couple of miles to the centre of Brighton. Having been to a number of large city marathon's this is the first time we have stayed in a location that ignored the event. 10s of thousands of people coming to a city is great for the economy and tourism. But to.make it special you need to adapt. Especially as I suspect a large proportion of people staying this weekend are here for this event. So here's some ideas for next year. Do a deal with the taxi firm and arrange shared transport for competitors to the start. Booked in advance.
Allow late check outs that day so that people don't have to vacate the site at a stupid time and search for parking.
Perhaps a restaurant would consider offering pasta takeout meals. Or cooked to order by reception.
So it's worth a visit if you are coming to Brighton but don't expect any special consideration if you are here for the marathon weekend. It's not their job.
