Sutton-on-sea lovely

Enjoyed our two night stay and wish we had booked for longer. The site is due a major refurbishment in September and expects to open again in July next year. Already booked a longer stay when it reopens in July 2019. Looks like there will be a new toilet block, improved site roads and new fully serviced pitches in the middle. Please do not ruin this lovely site by cramming as many units into it as you can. Our recent visit to Tewkesbury Abbey by example was a very disappointing experience after refurbishment. Meanwhile, a lovely site team with a well stocked reception shop. The staff work extremely hard to keep the present facilities clean and presentable and were very approachable. A 20 minute walk to the beach which was delightful. A dog walk on site during the refurbishment, even if small, would be most welcome as the local roads are getting quite busy especially in the early mornings and evenings. Looking forward to our visit next year.

July 2018

Whilst this is a standard Club site with all the usual facilities, our holiday was ruined by constant dog barking. The number of dogs on this site was excessive. The van next to us brought five dogs that barked constantly and at the slightest provocation. Further along was another van with two dogs that barked constantly, the owners seeming to find this pleasurable. After speaking to the wardens we moved to a pitch at the other end of the site but two vans arrived shortly after, both with dogs that barked constantly. We also witnessed some dog owners allowing their dogs to urinate on vacant pitches instead of taking them off site. We reported all this to the Club but they don’t want to know. In response they said the Club tries to provide enjoyment for all but clearly it fails to do this by prioritising dogs enjoyment over humans. It has to be said that most dogs on the site were well behaved and quiet. It’s always the irresponsible few that spoil it for everyone. We will not be using this site again.

First time out with new caravan

Chose this site as it is closest to home and wanted to check out new caravan. Was impressed with the cleanliness of the facilities although they could do with an update. The site was handy for trip into Sutton itself which was very busy as the weather was very good. Only downside was the number of pigeons which liked to wake up quite early and walk across the van!

July stay 2018

I have been going to Sutton-on-Sea Hawthorn farm site for over 20 years but it become quite relaxed and dirty, it’s a dog friendly site however the dog owners are not child friendly letting their dogs foul the grass tied up at the end of a 20 foot+ leads . The wardens are very relaxed with the site rules regarding dogs, regardless of the germs they carry and its affect it has on children. ( Toxocariasis can cause serious illness, and can even lead to blindness. It is caused by a parasite, known as Toxocara Canis, also commonly referred to as Roundworm ) Its a shame because this use to be a beautiful site, a lot of private sites restrict the number of dogs per caravan and also the length of leads but that said its not the poor dogs fault its their owners.

Well kept site

Easily accessible site near to Sutton on Sea beach, with small enclaves, and generous grass pitches. Wardens very friendly and helpful. It was quiet at the time of our visit as the schools had not broken up, but the warden assured us it is not usually noisy during school holidays. Yes, washroom facilities require some cosmetic updating but the facilities available are of the usual club high standard; they were very clean. Appears to be geared towards families, although we visited without children so cannot comment personally. We walked via public footpath close to the site to Sandilands and then along the prom to Mablethorpe, which was a lovely day out; about 6 miles. Plenty of information on the local area on site.

Well Done Pete

We were recently at the site, we are regular visitors, and we have two dogs both of which are always secured as per club rules. Unfortunately one caravanner thought it quite in order to let his dogs run up and down the back of the vans urinating all over the place and eventually leaving 'you know what' which I trod on and walked all over the awning and van carpet. The matter was reported to the site warden, Pete Rushton, who dealt with it in a prompt, discreet and very professional manner. As Caravan club members we should make the site wardens aware of any problems, they like us enjoy a nice peaceful, well looked after site. They are discreet and your complaint will be dealt with anonymity. Thank you Pete it was appreciated by all I am sure.

Car terrace beach

Lovely site, clean, welcoming and close to the car terrace beach. Great to park next to the sand and have all you need in the car. We walked from here to Mablethorpe along the prom, about 9 miles in total with the return journey but a lovely long day out. Well worth the visit.

A nice two night break

Stayed here for 2 nights beginning of June this year. Overall a nice site-great if you have dogs and like to walk. Bit boring for kids as the play park is in a sorry state-not much play equipment in there (nothing suitable for little children such as a swing etc) and was covered in rubbish such as sweet and crisp packets and gum. Not the wardens fault but still sad. Found the shower blocks dirty (this was 1 and 1/2 hours after they had supposedly been cleaned). Not sure what happened there but loads of massive hair balls on the shower floors. However a peaceful site very near to Mablethorpe and Skeggy.

Great Family Weekend

Stayed here for the first time with our two girls (5 & 8) we had a thoroughly great stay and were made very welcome by the friendly staff. The girls enjoyed the treasure hunt they were given, rambling in the trees to build their own versions of a bug hotel and the small play area. We enjoyed the short trip into Sutton on Sea which offers a beach and sea front without the amusements and great sausages and burgers from the Butcher. We visited a local farm that makes great ice cream and will definitely be back. The toilet and shower block could do with updating, but we found them clean and functional and that will not stop us returning.
