Just had a week at Eastfield Lodge, Sutton on Sea. Lovely 5 van CS. Enormous pitches, 4 hard standing, 1 grass. Every pitch had its own picnic table and benches. Also a little tree, I think they’ve kept all their Christmas trees, lit up at night by solar powered fairy lights, very pretty.
Site had one coin operated shower, 20p for 2 minutes and 2 toilets and a washing up area. Never saw them cleaning but all were spotless, suspect they snuck in when we were out, most of the day. Then got up very early, we didn’t.
I’m still using our own facilities, loo on board and camping shower in the awning but them I’m the nervous Nellie 🤪 We did use the washing up area, it was partially open air which made me happier.

We might give Eastfield a try Julie.Getting a shower and loo on a CS would be good for us in our Pan Duo T. How are you getting on with the camping shower? I've tried to convince Mrs FinnWoody that it would be OK but she says it would be too cold.

The camping shower works fine so long as you’re
A. Not too modest, we close all the curtains in the awning but you’re partner is still there, no good if you like to shower alone.
B. It’s not cold this time of year, 1/3 rd boiling to 2/3rds cold water seems to be a good temperature. It hold 7 litres which is enough for two showers and hair washing/ conditioning. I suspect that by Autumn I will either have got over my aversion to communal shower blocks or will be having a strip wash in the van, although we showered in a utility tent in our garden until December when we were renovating our bungalow. I was 8 years younger than I am now, mind you you’re not wet for long. Keep a big towel handy, you’ll be fine.

Only thing to note with Eastfield Lodge is that it’s on the side of the main road into Sutton. There is a bit of traffic noise but it didn’t bother us at night.

Manor Farm Sawdon, CL site but also has a small seperate field for non CMC members between Pickering and Scarboro. Lovely quiet site slightly sloping, toilet and shower (both rustic but clean). Lovely owner £16 per night awnings extra shower £1 for 7 mins. We will be going back but maybe best to avoid Sat and Sun. Lots of white boxes in storage but owners seem to come and stay for the weekend where they are stored, very strange.
