Hawthorn Cottage C L (caravan Club Members Only) in Essex

The 2 acre caravan site has pitches at one end with a grassed recreational area covering most of the rest. The ground is well drained, so we rarely have any problem getting caravans and camper vans on or off the site.

Each pitch has an electric hook-up (10amp max electricity supply), its own tap and its own greywater soakaway system.

The caravan site has a chemical disposal point, plus a WC.

Because of the problem with freezing, from December to March the WC is not available, and there is only one tap for drinking water available.

A stone-reinforced grass track loops around the pitches - your pitch can be approached in a clockwise or anti-clockwise direction, depending on which way you want to face when you get to the pitch.

Each pitch has a level concrete strip � drive your car over this and stop when your caravan wheels are on it. Camper vans � put either 2 front or 2 rear wheels on concrete strip, or park somewhere over the concrete strip.

The putting/ lawn bowls area is free to use. We have a few clubs and balls you may borrow (in the bag next to the WC). You will need to bring your own woods if you would like to play bowls.
