Wonderful Memories

A Memory of Challaborough.

So many wonderful memories of the "old challaborough" my parents owned a caravan there so we were lucky enough to spend weekends and holidays there. I loved the dolphin cafe on the sea front and then there was another restaurant where we used to play bingo and win vouchers to spend in the ghastly gift shop. I never did get to go in the Nile pub on the corner. Bigbury was so much better with the tom crocker pub which was done up like a street with houses. I went back recently and was very disappointed, it was so much better back in the 70's and 80's. I can remember the ground rent for my parents caravan was less than £500 a year! They were on Brooks site at the top...very close to John and Betty kits shop. It's such a shame that there is hardly anything to do there now, I definitely wouldn't go back
