Toilets/Showers

I felt very intimidated while using the showers with my two teenage grandchildren when a MALE and female warder came in to clean the showers while we were using them. Their approach was almost threatening and the girls went very quiet. I had just finishing drying my hair and was putting my things away when the warder started filling a bucket with hot water right next to me which was splashing on my legs. Seeing the girls reaction I chose not to make a scene but I am very unhappy with the whole situation. I understand that the shower and toilet blocks need cleaning, however I do think 10am is rather early. People are on holiday afterall and I would have thought 11am would be more appropriate. After this incident I made sure the girls were up and off to the showers by 9am. I had expected a more courteous approach from Caravan Club staff. We will try not to let this spoil any future visits to this site.

Quirky Layout but one of the best

We have just returned from a long weekend at Normanhurst Court and must say it is one of the best CC sites we have been on.  The layout is not the normal line of caravans but little cul-de-sacs laid out so you seem like you are on a little CL rather than a big site.  We were in the stables area having booked on the morning we arrived so did not have a massive choice but it was flat and would suggest it more suited to a MH than caravan as it was on block weave paving and very flat. Facility blocks are excellent (seem new) and the wardens are most helpful and friendly. Lots to do in the area including the battle site, NT properties, coast etc. Great play area if you have kids including a football pitch surrounded by wire fence and good climbing apparatus etc.

A very nice site

This is a lovely site in the grounds of a mansion, not there now, but the terracing and planting is. Although it rained very hard and the power went off we enjoyed our short stay. The wardens are first class and helpful. It's very clean and tidy. There is so much to do in the area. Battle town is just a few miles and the south coast is not far. Hastings, Rye, Camber Sands - just so many great resorts. You could spend a week here and not have time to see all the area has to offer. A great site!

Another Great Site

I had two very enjoyable nights recently at this site and found the staff extremely helpful and friendly. The only reason I did not give it a 100% rating was the lack of WiFi, TV points and it appeared to me that the personal cubicles and toilets in the toilet block were smaller than I had experienced at other sites.

Small skirmish with the elements

We stayed at this site for a week in mid July. We were pitched on a grass site on "the terrace" and would recommend this location, although there are lots of good places, both sunny and shaded. It is best to park up and walk the site when you arrive as there are lots of secluded cul de sacs and if they are already occupied you will have difficulty getting out. Although it was July it got very windy and on one day very wet, however the ground was well drained so it was not a problem. We would like to try the "stables" next time, a lovely sheltered walled area with lots of character. As mentioned in other reviews there is a walk to a local village with an "everything" shop, farm shop and pub that does specials at £5. The walk takes about 30 min. A visit to Battle Abbey is worth the effort on a nice day (mostly outdoors) make sure you get the audio guide as it really makes the tour worthwhile and brings it to life. Make sure your handbrake is in good order when you exit as the road is a bit tricky. Luckily is is not very busy. Overall it rates in the top ten of sites we have visited in our 4 years of caravanning.

Just the Job !

Stayed 14th/21st July 15 -- Nice, open, quiet site. Excellent facilities, always spotless. As others have stated the subsoil seems to be more like hardcore and very difficult to peg down, so rock pins essential. Screw down don't seem to hold and simply pull out. That aside, we enjoyed a pleasant stay and found the location brilliant for site seeing and visits to nearby castles and parks.

Beautiful Site

We stayed here for 3 nights from the 17th of July . Originally, when trying to book on line there were no awning pitches available, so phoned the site and was able to book one. Arrived and as with others was able to walk round the site and select our grass pitch. Only issue I had that on my particular pitch I was unable to secure two of my rock awning pegs as the ground underneath appeared to be solid rock! Site is excellent for young children, probably not teenagers. Has a small dog walk which leads onto a public footpath and after about a mile and a quarter arrives in the nearby village and local pub. Path is suitable for bykes. On Friday's the pub has ANY meal for a fiver which we took advantage of. Very good value and nice pub. Facilities on site very good, site wardens very good, plenty of nearby local attractions and very Beautiful site set in the gardens of an old estate.
