We stayed from 11 April to 22 April, having first visited the site in May 2021. Since then the facilities and the pitches have benefitted from an upgrade, which has made an excellent site even better. Our hardstanding pitch was level, grass free and well drained, which was a distinct advantage in view of the high winds, heavy rain and hailstones! The registration process was efficient and we received a friendly welcome on arrival. This approach was consistent by the staff throughout our stay. The staff were active on site every day, keeping the facilities spotless and the pitches tidy as they became vacant in readiness for new arrivals. The staff were also proactive in maintaining a safe environment on the site, particularly where a couple of individuals ignored the speed limit! As part of the upgrade a small enclosed area has been provided for dogs so that they can be let off the lead. This is a real benefit for making dogs comfortable early in the morning and late at night. The off-site walks are good with a thoughtfully provided access from the the rear of the site onto footpaths leading to the sea and into Sutton. In the latter respect this proves a safe alternative route to the road into town avoiding Crabtree Lane, which does not have a pavement. There are a number of place worth visiting, including the seal sanctuary on the road to Mablethorpe, the donkey sanctuary near Alford and the RAF airfield at Coningsby, where it is possible to watch Typhoon fighter jets take of and land from various viewing points. We had lunch at the café at Anderby Creek and at the watermill at Claythorpe. The food was excellent at both places but the watermill definitely had the edge both in terms of the food quality and location. Sutton has a Coop, a small Spar supermarket, an excellent bakers and a decent hardware store.
