Well placed for cross channel journeys

Stayed overnight in July on return from France via Dover.  Well maintained, well manicured site with pristine facilities, as we have come to expect from Caravan Club sites. Just a few minutes drive off M20. Our hard standing pitch was absolutely fine. My only minor criticism is a perceived higgledy piggledy layout for the grass pitches. I'm sure the site is good for the local coastal towns but it's certainly a good option for channel hoppers.

Season pitches

I have just stayed at this site for a week. The site was peaceful and the facilities very clean. We had a terrible problem with the hard standing surface it was that hard we could not get the steel rock pegs in. And those we did manage to get in were all bent when we got them out we had to pour water around the pegs to get them out.  I do my have concerns for this site the seasonal pitches seem to makethe site look untidy with all the long grass growing under the caravans. Some of the pitch holders had mowed around theirs and they looked tidy but others were just left with the grass growing. I also felt very uneasy and second class on this site to the season pitch holders. I hope that this site is not a forerunner of what other sites in the club are going to become. I have been a member of the club for 21 years but would seriously think about continuing my membership if this type of site was to become the normal thing. I am on the littlehampton site at the moment and I feel a lot more comfortable and enjoying my stay. I thought that the caravan club was for touring caravans there are plenty of commercial sites for seasonal pitches. If this was to continue around other sites then the tourers would find it more and more difficult to get a pitch on these sites as I am sure it will become more and more popular with those that do not want to tow .

Lovely Site

We stayed just the one night en route from Eurotunnel to home. Thought it was absolutely lovely, peaceful, clean, friendly, we had a nice spacious grass pitch. Couldn't wish for more. We will certainly back for a longer visit next time we're Europe bound. By the way, we didn't hear any exotic animals from the zoo, but we did hear the Romney Hythe and Dymchurch train whistling in the distance. Apart from that, just birds.

Cracking!

Just returned after three nights.  Great site, great location with LOADS to do all within easy walk/cycle and car drive away.  Wonderful routes for cycle lovers and great for anyone interested in water sports, windsurfing lake close by in Rye.  Very quite, surrounded by the beautiful countryside of Kent.  Highly recommend this camp site, returing again next month.  Also very large well kept playing area and huge run for dogs.  A real treasure!

wonderful week at this site

We have just returned from a wonderful week at this site, wish we could have stayed longer. When we arrived at the site we had a warm welcome. We choose pitch 104 a grass pitch which was perfect - close to the dog walking and the toilet block and it had plenty of room for us to have our own private space once the wind breakers were up. The site was clean and tidy and the grass and gardens very well kept. We have a dog and I have to say this is the best dog field we have seen on a site. The shower and toilet block is big so no waiting and kept extremely clean and its warm no matter what time of day or night you pay a visit. The wardens are friendly and work hard to keep this site as it is. It was our first time in the area and this site is ideally located to travel - we went as far as Brighton (2hrs) - Hastings (about an hour) Battle - Margate - Dover - Folkstone and may other little villages - Hythe itself is lovely we also managed to visit Lymphe Animal Park as one of our friendly caravaners looked after out dog for the afternoon. We have been caravanning for 3yrs now and this is our favourite site to date and we will certainly be going back.....................

Good all round

Arrived at site on a Saturday evening behind a breakdown truck as car broke down on M20 going for the tunnel. Great job Red Pennant. The warden Dave was great in helping to offload the van and get me to the pitch. The help from all the staff over the weekend helping with phone numbers,taxi and generally being supportive deserves a mention. I had not booked in at Daleacres but was impressed by the site. Lots of room,very clean toilet block and a well maintained site,one I would use next time in Kent. Thanks to you all

Good Site

We keep returning to this site. It is good for a weekend getaway (and for longer if needed). It takes us about 1.5 hours to travel down and we can then crash out and relax. Excellent dog walk - shame about the owners who don't feel able to clean up after their dogs. Lots of local activities within reasonable distance and walking if wanted. Wardens were excellent and welcoming and site was well maintained. We used the Sainsburys store in Hythe although there are others if wanted.

Regular visitors

We are regular visitors to daleacres (usually 3 times a year) and love it. It's a great location with loads to do locally. On arrival the wardens were very accommodating as our daughter had a broken leg. Would thoroughly recommend this site!

Our first family caravan holiday! Loved it!

Loved it! Thank you to everyone at Daleacres for making our first ever caravan holiday with our children and dogs such a roaring success! We've rebooked and plan to be regular weekenders!  We found the site team to be extremely helpful and our fellow caravanners were BRILLIANT to us newbies! What a wonderful helpful bunch you all are!  We chose a grass pitch (No. 70) tucked in the corner near the playground so we could bicker to our hearts content while erecting the awning for the first time whilst our adventurous preschoolers played happily in the playground! The site is immaculate with a superb dog walking field which is fenced and gated with mowed paths criss-crossing the field. The centrally located shower blocks and laundry facilities are spotless. Piping hot water available and good showers. The commercial washing machine only costs £4 for an enormous load and only takes 30 minutes! One Happy Mummy! The pitches are well planned and nicely maintained and spaced. The highlights for our family include our wonderful helpful and encouraging neighbours on all sides, the incredible birdsong & hearing so much nature around...foxes, pheasants and lambs! The views of Lympne Castle are a joy! Daleacres location ensured our young family was well catered for. The one way road system round the park ensures safety for all. For local outings we recommend the huge playground on The Green in Hythe as it has a zip wire and our boys loved it! I enjoyed running along the sea wall from the Martello Tower in Hythe along to Sandgate and back via the beautiful Royal Military Canal! New Romney has an amazing traditional fish and chip shop! I really recommend this well planned, relaxing and friendly site in a great location! Our very grateful thanks to Sandy and all the team! See you soon!

Excellent

This is the best site. Great for bike rides. Very flat for miles. Beautiful beach locally and the nearest pub does the best food. I come every year about 3 times a year. Love it
