Jasmin Camping , Jim's site at Sutton on Sea (1 Viewer)

[scotjimland]

Just spend 5 nights at Jim's cracking site at Sutton on Sea .. it is one of the best small sites we have had the privilege to stay on..

The hard standing pitches are great, with a nice grassy area for sitting out, or you can pitch anywhere (weather permitting) on the large grassy area..
Facilities are well thought out, grey waste is either put into the hedge or around fruit trees.. I carry a long waste pipe and run it straight into the hedge ..

There is a long hose for filling up with fresh water , it can reach any part of the site.. this saves lugging water carries or moving the van to fill up

Black waste elsan dump point located beside the bins for rubbish and recycling.

6 Amp EHU at each pitch, longer cable needed on grassy area, I believe Jim has spare EHU cables..

Easy walking distance to Sutton on Sea and the promenade is great for cycling, it's about 6 miles long , so a nice 12 mile easy cycle..

We had a lovely time, we met a few Funsters we hadn't seen in years, and the hosts made us feel really welcome.. a very peaceful and relaxing site..

Well done, Jim and Sian .. your site is a credit to you both..

good to see you posting again scotjimland

I have been puzzled by this, is it the same scotjimland that used to post about sewing machines and bikes as I can't find any old posts.
Yes if it is the same one welcome back.

 

[chaser]

Yes excellent place I think that is the same place we parked about five years ago.

I'm sorry when I was there earlier this year, there was a poor woman, I thought it might have been a slave, continually working, cleaning,gardening being chased around the field by a rough looking man on a sit-on mower with what looked like shotgun shouting if that ground sheet is not picked up you will get both barrels.
Seriously I do like jasmin camping who is that oddball walking around shouting at pigeons, poor harmless birds. Yes you know who I mean

Those poor pigeons looked underfed, so I threw a load of sliced bread up on to the roof of that caravan that was parked there so that they could fatten themselves up as it is the breeding season and I just love baby pigeons

 

[Mikeco]

Could have been parked opposite you if you were there yesterday, had 2 nights there and just arrived home as we are only 40 miles away. Saw Sian but Jim must have been hiding somewhere.

 

[scotjimland]

sorry we missed you... we left on Thursday ..

 

[DuxDeluxe]

When we were there, Alison took a photo with her very old camera purchased from someone from Discworld, but didn't pay the Elf to do a very good likeness. Anyway this was lifted from "Calamity Camping" and shows the pigeon scaring action. You are famous, Karl........

Had we known that you were there, we would have popped down to say hello

 

[LesW]

Looks lovely now, when we were there, quite some time ago, the grass wasn't there...(probably waiting for turf/seeding).

What an improvement, we must return.

 

[CazPaul]

thanks and yes, the same one,

Does Jim still do free eggs?

 

[grasscutter]

Does Jim still do free eggs?

No it’s a pain. You have to steal them elsewhere now.

 

[dalspa]

No it’s a pain. You have to steal them elsewhere now.

That’s a shame the free eggs really put the icing on the cake for such a lovely site. We had a great time there a few years ago biking to Mablethorpe to the north and Gibraltar Point to the south. Had the pleasure to meet Jim, Karl Gromett and Ian ianthebuilder.

No I believe,I may be mistaken, that Jim not being a very good shot, managed to shoot his chickens whilst trying to shoot a person putting up a awning with groundsheet. In truth bird flu in the area meant Jim having to cull his remaining chickens, that's what he told me, I prefer my story.
