This was our first visit to Sutton on Sea for more than 30 years, but it won't be that long before we return next time. The site is beautifully located in quiet countryside, offering excellent peace and quiet, whilst at the same time within walking distance of the beach and the amenities in the quiet town of Sutton on Sea. The site is very well looked after by the ever friendly wardens, and the recent refurbishment has been a great success as evidenced by the numbers on site during a lovely week in late September. The toilet and shower block is of the usual very high standard being set by the Club as it revamps our sites, and power, water and waste disposal are all in plentiful supply convenient to all pitches. Following refurbishment, pitches themselves are excellent in all regards, with easy access to all. One slight word of caution - chose your pitch carefully if sunshine is important to you. Some pitches, including the one we had, are in cool shade for the whole day at this time of year, so if you prefer sun and warmth, check before you choose and set up. Just two reservations to, reluctantly, highlight. On two separate occasions we had dogs off leads roaming around on to the pitch without owners in sight. How this happened is not for me to speculate, but it is not the first time we have had this on various sites recently. The Club has rules about this which most dog owners follow. However, as is often the case, the less courteous minority is in danger of creating difficulty for everyone else Second point is I'm afraid also with regard to dogs. This site does not have a dedicated dog walk, and from our pitch close to the exit, we saw many owners taking their dogs off-site for walking. Unfortunately, we were also treated to the sight of many dogs using the grassed area opposite, which houses 6 pitches, to relieve themselves. Whilst appreciating that owners cannot control exactly when their dog chooses to do this, such frequent use of that area in this way by dogs cannot be hygienic for those on those pitches, which might include children, and it does, I suspect, encourage other dogs to do likewise. I don't pretend to have the complete answer to this problem, but perhaps if dogs have to be taken off site for walking, owners might consider keeping them off grassed areas, especially near pitches, and keeping them on roadways until they reach the dog-walking area itself. Overall, however, this was a most enjoyable visit to Sutton on Sea, and I heartily recommend it. I know that we'll be back
