Electric grass and earth pitch
Liked Small quiet campsite. Lady on arrival helpful and polite.
Disliked Dated and not very clean toilet area and facilities.
We were pitch 4. Electric hook up one side that we thought was ours not working, too late and dark to report/sort - in the morning realised that pitch 2&3 were using electric hook up 3&4 but this was really far from pitch 4, as positioned inbetween pitch 2&3. Reported by phone in the morning as no-one around but no reply. So paid for electric but didn’t have access to it.
Not value for money, wouldn’t return.

Electric grass and earth pitch
Liked Lovely little place if you want peace and quiet, near to Eastbourne seafront and easy to park, we also went to Sovereign Harbour for the best fish and chips, was about 20 minutes drive. The lady that runs it is lovely.
Disliked At times road noise but it didnt bother me. The showers and loo's are old and could do with updating.
