 Really helpful & friendly staff who found me a good pitch out of the wind as rough weather was forecast even though I'd just arrived on spec.
Nice clean facilities & right by the beach.
Recommend.

Very friendly and helpful staff. A bit pricy at £33 pn (grass and EHU) even allowing for OAP and Members discounts.
A fish and chip van calls on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. A breakfast / brunch van operates on Saturdays and Mondays. We were not at all impressed with the breakfast.
Our main criticism is that the site is really just an open field - no hedges or trees. Pitches very close together and therefore no privacy. People just walk through the pitches willy-nilly. For us there were too many yappy dogs but that's a personal view.
That being said the site is well located, virtually on the beach, near the railway station and bus stop with a shop and good facility blocks. The Star pub is a good mile walk but excellent.
We'd go back for the location.

Site is well maintained and clean. Good variation of pitches available, seemed quite close together but it was fairly busy.
Staff were friendly but didn't find the man in the shop overly helpful. When my grandson asked where the nearest toilet was, he was just given a plan of the site - it wouldn't have been difficult to point to the building close by.
Also shows gas exchange on the list of amenities but they do not stock gas and again, same man when asked if he knew somewhere we could buy some, impatiently said he had no idea, it was in short supply and phone around. Not easy when you don't know the area !
The site is however in a nice setting with the big pebble beach right opposite.

Liked the security of the site and its aspect to the beach.
Considered the hard standing pitches too close to each other and the grass pitches during our stay were somewhat haphazard and over lapping.
Site shop closed for no apparent reason!

Perfect location, right by a beautiful beach perfect for dog walks or a family day in the waves.
For those wanting to leave their van on site and view the area station just 3 minute walk with easy access by train to Eastbourne - 15mins and Hastings - 25mins

Set in 500 acres of beautiful, rolling Kent countryside. The Oast village on site is the World's largest Oast house collection and makes for a spectacular backdrop. Grass and hardstanding pitches for caravans, tents and motorhomes with electric option. Modern toilets and showers and multiple washing up facilities.
Small shop onsite and pub/restaurant at the entrance. The River Medway flows through the site, providing idyllic waterside pitches. Make the most of the location and try your hand at canoeing or fishing or simply sit back, unwind and enjoy wildlife spotting.

Continuing our aim to get away for an overnight stop somewhere unfamiliar to us during the Covid restrictions, we chose this site because it on the coast and has hardstanding and electric.
The pitches are laid out a safe distance apart and the sanitary blocks are both clean and adequate. Just over the road is the pebble beach of Normans Bay.
We had two long easy walks along the elevated stony beach path. One way leads towards the popular Star Inn which serves very reasonably priced meals but be warned that the last bit along the road is not lit and quite narrow. In the other direction is Pevensey with shops and a castle.

We spend 7 days at this site and this is by far the best site we have visited this year and over the last 2 months we have visited many lol.
The staff were very helpful and nice the toilet blocks cleaned twice a day the field well looked after and the sea just a stones throw away, even the weather although windy it was faboulas.
End result is we shall be off again to this site next years and we shall be taking out daughter her husband and our 2 granchildren.

Just returned from 4 very pleasant and relaxing nights at Norman's Bay.
We can't think of any bad points about the place and would certainly recommend it, however we were told by some to avoid it during the school holidays as it gets very busy - luckily we can now take our holidays during term time so can avoid the over crowding.

The owners put everything into keeping the site clean and well run. Gravel hard standings, great toilet block.
No kids around so had great Lay ins in the mornings. Relaxed atmosphere.
Would come here again.

This club site in peak season you would expect to be busy and it was. Certainly in places, which is a majority of grass pitches it was somewhat crowded.
The good things about the site is that is right opposite the beach. The beach is a long unspoilt pebble beach which allows dogs on it all year round. It is also a shortish walk to the local train halt where the service will take you right across the network. The local pub is slightly further away but does not admit dogs.
On the adverse side you expect high standards for the relatively high price the club charge, but due to old age, the facilities look tired and in need of an update. Fortunately we have enjoyed a dry summer. But, if it was a standard wet summer, even though the site is level, with the large preponderance of grass pitches it may resemble the Glastonbury mud!

Very accommodating site that arranged for the family to all camp together. Facilities average but then it was a bank holiday weekend! and under the circumstances the staff coped very well, queues to check in etc.
My real complaint about this site was that camping on the grass near the toilets meant a continual stream of people walking through my pitch with no consideration to my space!
Ideal site for the beach if you like pebbles and mud! Windy enough to fly kites and get seriously sunburnt!

Very pleasant staff and in general a well looked after site. My kids had a great time as did my wife and I. However, I would like to mention two things that I think could be greatly improved. Firstly the system of registering and then being personally shown to the pitch is a nice idea but does not work as we had to wait 30 mins with despite being second in the queue. With a car full of moaning kids this felt like a lifetime. Secondly, they really need to clean the facilities more often than once a day. This cleaning occurs at lunchtime and thus by morning the whole unit is a state and for the price I would have thought that they could stretch to a more frequent cleaning schedule.

Arrived on Thursday to a very quiet site, staff nice and friendly and gave us the opportunity to choose our pitch.
Had a very peaceful Thursday afternoon and evening, unfortunately the Friday was not the same, families in tents turned up and allowed their children to run wild screaming and shouting till 2315 hrs whilst the parents sat around drinking alcohol not bothered that their ‘snowflakes’ were causing disturbances to other campers.
Generally a really nice campsite providing you don’t get inconsiderate people there at the same time.

Love this site. Right near the beach. BEWARE OF SUBMERGED OBSTACLES. Check-in is 1pm which grates a bit as the day is half over but I can see why they wouldn't want people leaving meeting people arriving as the roads are rather narrow with no where to pass unless you happen to be really lucky and hit a passing bay at the correct time. Just remember Murphy's Law exists for a reason. OK so your day is half over before even setting up so for an overnight stay time is precious, the reason why we took the camper van as opposed to convertible caravan and why lunch was made before setting off. Given the check in time being a bit of a pain when you want to miss rush hour traffic what do you do, well you can hang out at ASDA in Eastbourne. Get there early, do a bit of shopping, maybe something to eat and before you know it you can finish the last 15 minutes and arrive in time for check in. Once shown to your site by a warden you are free to set up and then hit the beach. This site can be windy, really windy so just be aware of that and avoid setting up near a windbreak or awning that is clearly going to fly into your set up at some point. Once you have tired of the beach say around 5pm there is a chance to walk to The Star Inn, an old smugglers pub and have a drink and dinner or if you didn't book and couldn't get a table you can really test your BBQs performance in the wind, or cook behind your wind break assuming it's still there. This is a lovely sunny site so a quiet relaxed drink in the evening is perfect. Kite flying is done at the beach and there are no ball games allowed so you really get to relax. An earlier review mentioned the location of the rubbish bins. I'll have this set up any day. It is too windy to have a bin on every corner and the site would suffer from rubbish flying everywhere if this was adapted. I'd have no hesitation returning here and please be sure to read some other reviews as my focus has been on strategies to enjoy your overnight stay at Normans Bay not washrooms, kitchens, and kids play area.
