Super Xmas break

We (family of 4) stayed for 8 nights, 21st to 29th December, and had a lovely relaxing break. Site was 1/3 full when we arrived and got progressively busier as the week went on, but it was always quiet at night (not sure it would be so peaceful during summer months when it was full). Shower block was always warm and clean with oodles of hot water (great water pressure too), barely saw another soul - felt like we had the place to our selves!! Washing up area was one of the best we've used - lovely deep sinks with (again) masses of hot water. We managed to get good TV reception from van aerial without a booster needed. We bought WiFi which at times was good but also experienced quite a bit of droppage as the site filled up. Easy 10 min walk to Abbey Wood railway station (National Rail - not TfL)., but you can buy TfL Travelcards. Very frequent trains into central London - every 10 mins even in the holidays. We probably could've got cheaper family travel for the week if we'd done more homework before coming due to the daily charges for the children. There is a little Co-op 5 min walk away and we drove to the Tesco at Bexley (15 mins) away for our xmas food shop. Be warned it only has underground parking so you would have to find alternative parking if you have a motor home. We also saw a Morrisons opposite Tesco but don't know about the parking options. We loved listening and watching the parakeets flying around the trees. We saw masses of squirrels but didn't experience issues with any other wildlife despite leaving the bin outside the van overnight. Follow the Club driving directions to the letter and you'll get there without too much bother...the satnav will try and take you down Knee Hill...don't go that way or you'll end in a right pickle as it is a steep narrow lane that buses use and there's barely enough width for 2 cars!! Lovely and peaceful holiday - we will probably visit again but during quieter times as we like our sleep!!
