Nice site but not very motorhome friendly

This was our first visit to a affiliated site since joining the C&MH club so I really can’t compare it to the others but in general I found the site to be clean and well maintained. We had booked a hardstanding pitch and was pleasantly surprised at the size of it, there was a good tarmac road leading to the pitch with stone chippings so no grass to walk over which is a bonus in wet weather. EHU units were within easy reach but drinking water and grey waste disposal were in one place only in the centre of the toilet block, this is where things get difficult for motorhome owners. To fill up my water tank I had to reverse down the side of the toilet block to access the tap which blocked the road to some of the pitches so anyone arriving would have to wait while I filled up. The grey water drain off grate was also in an awkward spot right on the corner of the same building and it was so small I had to make several attempts to line up so the drain tap was over the grate, it would have been easier to fill up a container and carry it to the drain. The toilet and shower block was heated and kept very clean and there was always plenty of hot water which was also the case with the pot washing facility. There was a laundry room which we did not use and there is a unisex hairdressing salon also in the same block. The location is right next to the beach where there are bars,restaurants and an amusement arcade all a couple of minutes walk from the site entrance, five minutes walk the other way is a fair sized Spar supermarket, a Subway outlet and several takeaways including a really good Fish & Chip shop. On the same corner is the bus stop where buses will take you to Skegness station, Ingoldmells, Chapel St. Leanords, Mablethorpe and Louth with connecting services to places like Boston and Lincoln making this a good base for getting around on public transport. Would I use this site again ? Maybe but I would have to come better prepared for water carrying and waste disposal in a Motorhome. I would recommend this site for touring caravans. WiFi is third party chargeable but there are freee WiFi locations on the seafront and if you have the Virgin Media app there is a secure hotspot at the Garden City and Beachcomber pubs.

This year (2020) a new drive through motorhome service point has been installed, with grey water drain and fresh water fill just opposite reception, avoiding the congestion.
