Date of Visit: June 2006 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: Freebird 10 reviews from this member

 Although arriving late in the evening for an "only overnight" stay our host was very welcomming and allocated us a pitch. As said, the site is well kept and the sanitory building was clean. Noticable where the "do's & don't" signs we encountered but that seemed a general habit in the whole South of the UK, as we experienced later on.

Prices are a bit steep, considdering 20 GBP for a motorhome and two adults for one night with EHU and the campsite is rather noisy at night. Policecars seem to use the exit road for their sirened approach to the motorway and woke us up several times. We left the site at 06:30 AM so we can not make a comment of the quality of other services; to us it sufficed as an overnight stay but we would not book for a long period, however nice the host was.

 We stayed here for 5 days on our way back from Kent. The site is very well maintained, but lies behind a very busy road so be prepared for road noise. There are plenty of toilet facilities which are kept clean, but are a bit on the old side. The site is used mainly as a stop over for visitors from the Netherlands coming over on the ferry from Harwich, and we were kept entertained most nights by the queue of caravans arriving and then leaving by the next morning. The Dutch visitors were very friendly and we got chatting to many of them, who were touring the U.K. and lapped up the information that we gave to them. The site allows tents/large motorhomes and tourers.

Reviewer: Josmitheram 1 review from this member

 We decided (as novice campers) to opt for a site that was pretty local, 'yet away from the hustle and bustle of London'. We spent two nights here. It was a lovely well kept site with plenty of campers and absolutely hundreds of wild rabbits scampering around, which thrilled us to bits!
The facilities are excellent, heated toilet blocks and plenty of showers, toilets and private washing cubicles. Would go again if in need of an 'easy' camping weekend.
Just one point, the site is adjacent to the A12 which is pretty busy at all times, so theres a constant background traffic noise, does muffle out individual campers noise though.

Just got back from a weekend break at this site. Not the most friendliest of welcomes, which you generally expect from a CC site.But it is a good base, within easy access to major roads.

There are 3 toilet/shower blocks and all were clean and heated, and had an abundance of hot water. The site is accessed through a barrier which you are given a key for, but be warned if you are after 11.30pm it is locked. However there are late night parking spaces.

There is a well stocked camp shop, which seems to be fairly priced.

This site seems to have a major rabbit population, so the ground is covered with droppings. The site is next to the A12, a major road which never seems to be quiet. Also seems to be in a flight path.

Warning if pitching a tent, the ground is very hard, so new tent pegs needed after a trip to this site. Overall a good site to have as a base to explore the area, as there do not seem to be many sites within this area.

Will return, with ear plugs and stronger pegs next time.
