Crowborough C&CC Site, Eridge Road, Crowborough, TN6 2TN, Tel
01892664827
To Find Site:- From Crowborough centre take A26 towards Tunbridge Wells.
Campsite is next to the Goldsmith Recreation Ground Leisure Centre just
past Speed Camera, the site is signed from main road.
Non-members are accepted. There are 90 pitches in total, mainly set out
on terraces although at the end of the site is an open field with
lovely views over the surrounding countryside.
Pitches are a mix of grass and
hardstandings. The latter are only wide enough for caravan plus awning.
Depending on length of outfit cars could be parked across the front of
the pitch. Some pitches will require a degree of fore and aft
levelling. Electric points are convenient to those pitches that
are designated to have electricity. They are rated at 16amps and use
CEE17 blue connectors. Site roads are in the main compacted gravel.
There are two toilet blocks. The larger of the two is nearer to
reception and in addition to all the usually facilities also contains a
recreation room with table tennis and a pool table. The second smaller
block is a bit further into the site and seems a bit newer. Water and
waste water points are dotted around the site. Not sure I like the idea
of the drinking water tap being over the grey water waste drain. The
motorhome service point has an open grid although larger motorhome might
temporarily block the road whilst emptying waste water. There is no
dedicated play area for children on site. There is site wide Wi-Fi and
time can be purchased at reception or online. Signal strength wise it
was generally OK but struggled a bit sometimes in the evening. This is
generally a peaceful site but there is a fair amount of planes flying
overhead en route to the various London airports. There is not much in
the way of lighting around the site so best to bring a torch! Rubbish
and recycling is situated just outside the site gates. This site has a
storage compound.
This site is a ten minute, uphill, walk from the centre of
Crowborough. There are plenty of shopping opportunities with both a
Waitrose and Morrison’s supermarkets. There are also several eating
places. The site has good transport links from the main road to either
Brighton or Tunbridge Wells. The latter is well worth a visit not only
for the well-known Pantiles but it also has a rather good shopping
centre.
