Date of Visit: October 2013 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Campersmg 6 reviews from this member

 Stayed here as it was 1p for children for caravan club members. We were pleasantly surprised by how lovely the site was. We found a pitch near to the children's play area which our 7 year old enjoyed playing in and which is also close to the path which leads to the 1066 walk which was great for us with our dog. There is also a field for football/basketball etc. We did visit right at the end of the season and the site was very quiet giving us an enormous choice of pitches. The site probably would have felt quite different at a busier time of year but I feel this would probably only add to its atmosphere and charm.

The facilities were excellent. The toilets and showers were beautifully clean and modern with lots of hot water, hair dryers, mirrors, sink cubicles and music playing! I noticed there was also a family bathroom and two laundry rooms.

We walked to nearby catsfield a couple of times (about 30 minute walk along a traffic free country path) and used the convenience store there and ate at the white hart pub which is both children and dog friendly. The food was good and reasonably priced. We also ate at the squirrel pub nearby where the food was excellent.

We visited the science centre at nearby hurstmonceux which was well worth the visit and enjoyed by adults and children alike.

My only criticism is that there isn't really a shop on site as the reception only stock minimal products, but all in all this was an excellent, well looked after, picturesque caravan site with a good location and we can't wait to go back. A real find!

 As has been said, quiet site, staff friendly, nice clean facilities. On the down side, about 1/2 (maybe more) of the site is either under trees or completely surrounded by trees. Nice when it's hot but not so good when cooler or raining. The location is good only about 3 miles outside Battle. We went to The Bull Inn in Battle for a meal, the food was good and plenty of it; good value for money. We also went to The White Hart in Catsfield, it was a bit pricey for regular pub grub but the food was well cooked and good and hot. Would we go back. Don't think so.

 Just returned from a couple of nights on this site.

This is a quiet site where the pitches are largely surrounded by mature trees. Facilities are well up to the standard you come to expect from a CC site. Staff are friendly and welcoming

Pitches are laid out in 'bays' and we opted for 'the stables' where we had a hard-standing on what was obviously the old stable yard. Some pitches require a longer hook-up cable - so be prepared!

The dog walk is adequate and leads on to access to established footpaths. One such leads to the village of Catsfield and the 25 minute walk is rewarded by a visit to the White Hart, an establishment with a wide selection of ales and a fairly traditional 'pub grub' menu.

 Just returned from a lovely visit to this site. The wardens very friendly, but what really impressed me were the new toilet/washing up blocks. Both new and spotlessly clean and lovely and warm. Plenty of hard standing areas to choose from. A great site to visit in the winter months. Lots to do in the area. Easy access to Eastbourne and Hastings. Loved the layout of the site too. Tiered and level, with lots of cul-d-sacs which added more character to the site. The play area seemed to be well used and the site was happy for children to use scooters and bikes. Will definitely be back.

 We stayed at this campsite in our touring caravan for 3 night.

This site was the normal excellent standard that you would expect from a caravan club site.

The wardens were very cheerfull and helpful.

The shower block was always kept clean, it did seem new, the washing up area was enclosed and centeral heated making it nice and warm, I liked the piped background music which gave you somthing to listen too while washing up.

This is an excellent laid out site and very quiet which we will be using again.

One word of warning, when you get near to the site, do NOT use your sat nav, as it takes you down a very narrow single track lane (for no reason) as the camp site is not even down there, follow the instructions in the caravan club hand book.

Reviewer: CHILTERN TURNER 3 reviews from this member

 Again we stayed at Battle/Normanhurst, we arrived on it's first day open for the season after a 'refurb' of the toilet blocks. All very well, BUT if your in the lower block late at night the lights are/were on a timer, rather awkward if your sitting and the lights go out. But let this not detract you from visiting this wonderful site, it's one of our favourites. It was nice to see the 'Daffs' in bloom on the verges at the side of the approach road, these being the ones that us and others planted several years a go at the end of the season. With regard to the lights cutting out I'm sure this will or has already been rectified, do take a stick to activate the lights if your caught out there though.

 Just returned from a 3 day stay here and highly recommend it if you want a peaceful break with spotless facilities. Very helpful and friendly wardens, spotless toilets and showers very warm and roomy. I'm going back in May when the Rhododendrons will be in full bloom and should give a spectacular display. Papers Milk and fresh local bread available from reception along with eggs etc although fresh bread and papers must be ordered in advance (papers you also need to pay when placing order) 


Date of Visit: July 2011 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: PADFA 2 reviews from this member

 Just spent two nights at Normanhurst as a family with young children and two dogs.

It is a reasonably peaceful site but we deliberately pitched near to the play parks and dog walk entrance. The play park is better than many other sites and our children spent ages on the frames.

The ball park is on the small side and can only really be used by two to three small groups at a time. It is near caravans and only protected by a 15' fence so balls from older children occasionally fly over, not good.

On the other hand if they go over the other side it disappears into the woods and a bit of scrabbling is to be had. :)

The dog walk is off site and not a great one in my opinion. The dog poo bin is at the entrance gate which is good for dogs but not for kids or nearby campers as it is next to the play park and pitches. Dogs are asked to be kept on a lead on the 1066 public footpath and with good reason. One of our neighbours at the site found an animal trap in the woods which would bring about a nasty vets bill for your rover!

Shower blocks are reasonably clean but could do with a lick of paint. I never understand why club sites are poorly decorated when the have so much money in the account. Paint out of season every year please. Also the showers are okay, good flow of hot water, if you are under 5'10' as this is the height of the head. People are taller these days so please put the fixed head higher. The cubicles aren't over roomy either.

Overall would I go back, probably no. It is not a bad site but for the price I think it is £2-3/night more than it should be for what it offers. The dog walk is not a dog walk but a restricted path and my dogs need a good 60mins of running a day.

I would recommend it if you are under 5'9' and slim build with a lead based dog and children who are under 9 years old. Also if you are happy to drive for everything you need.

There is no shop on site to support local produce so you have to go to Battle, which has a lovely abbey ( kids get to run around too ) but little parking. Also take some blocks as the grass pitches can be on quite a slope.

Ps. Chip van does lovely chips and the visiting ice cream van was cheap. Also you will need a booster aerial if you like the goggle box. 


Date of Visit: June 2011 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: M+M Tours 32 reviews from this member

 Visited the site & area for the first time in early June.A large site with many cul-de-sacs hence you have to park your outfit first & walk around to find a suitable pitch. Ok on a nice day, but having to do this on a wet day after a long drive. Not so sure?

Lots of very different areas to pitch so chose carefully. A lot of arrivals were walking round when we got there, so it was whoever got back to the warden quickest, got the pitch I think?

Some road noise on the higher levels, but not too bad.Toilets were clean but looking dated, but overall a nice & 'different' site to what we have used before, quiet mid-week, but a lot noisier when the weekenders arrived with their little cherubs !

Lots to see & do, Hastings looked tired but the cliff top country park was nice. Eastbourne looked nice on the front but the cliff walk at Beachy head & then the seven sisters country park was excellent.

Top NT places to visit are Scotney castle, Batemans & Bodium castle. Wouldn't rush back, but a very nice week.

 Just came back from a bank holiday weekend here, we have used this site last year and the same as last year we were not disappointed.Yes is was full but always managed to use the facilities, which are clean and tidy,always friendly staff, tv reception isn't great but that's made clear on the sites website.

Lovely area for walking your dog, the actual ground of the site are lovely, lots of trees and greenery, peaceful, nice roomy pitches, a short drive into Battle and a bit further on Hastings and Rye always worth a visit,

We are booked to go back in august and cannot wait.
