Good for families

Perfect spot for work

I was recently working in Gatwick and with the price of hotels in the area, decided to bring my caravan down instead. The site was less than 10 minutes drive to Crawley where I was working, a perfect location. The site is at the end of the runway and when I first arrived I thought I'd made a big mistake in coming, thinking I'll never sleep with the noise of the aircraft taking off. When the big ones went, my caravan actually shook. However, it's surprising how quickly I must have got used to it! The wardens were very friendly and helpful, especially when I was running late stuck on the M25, they called me to see where I was and reassured me it was all fine. The site is immaculate, everything is neat and well maintained. The wash block facilities were warm and very clean, and it was good to have an actual tap in the shower rather than a button. Having a hairdryer in there was useful too. This is the first time I'd stayed on my own in the van but I felt very safe, and the entry card and barrier system reassured me. The wardens were always around if I needed anything (I didn't, but it was nice to know). The week worked so well, I actually decided to leave the caravan there whilst I went home for a few days, and then I came back the following week for another few days work. I had to move the van to the temporary storage area on the other side of the site, which wasn't a problem, then I got the same pitch back on my return. Pitch 52 was very handy as it was close to the water point. It was a hardstanding pitch with plenty of room. Opposite were grass pitches and an area that had been left to grow which was very pretty with wildflowers. If I am down in the area again I would definitely use this site, it was so convenient, safe and well maintained, the wardens did a great job, and checked in with me to make sure everything was ok.
