Shops are fine, but there is a 2hr parking limit, so if you did want to browse and then wander over to Costa enjoy a coffee, then browse some more you will run out of time and incur a fine. Along with that the car park is very poorly designed quite often meaning a lengthy queue to get in - overall poor from a car drivers perspective.

It's ok very busy parking and on a limited time. Watch the time or you will get caught with a fine.

Good options for shopping, we are always hoping from Aldi to M&S, oh let's not forget Smith toys ,the kid always needs to go there . As for the parking wow it's hard work and the queue can be deadly as it piles up onto the roundabout.

Shocking 2hr parking limit for a retail park! £100 fine for going shopping for 2.5hrs.. No tickets all ANPR… what’s the point of going shopping?!

Very handy, useful range of shops - Smyths toy shop, Aldi, M&S food, Wickes next door and then easy walking access to County Oak with Halfords, Currys, Next, Boots, B&M, Hobbycraft, TK Maxx. Parking can be quite chaotic at busy times and queued up to the roundabout.

Acorn Retail Park consists of Marks and Spencer food hall. Has a very good range of products. Has a good cafeteria you can use in store. Staff are very helpful and friendly. Aldi's food supermarket nextdoor to Mark's and Spencer. Has all the necessary products for your weekly shop at probably the best prices. Easy parking with no fees Also a toy store to keep the kids happy tucked up in the far corner. Good little retail park....

Three good sized stores. Smyths Toys is definitely the largest toy store in the area & our Grandchildren love every visit , with everything on two floors, from outside play, car seats, LEGO, etc etc ALDI has been refurbished & has become more like E.Grinstead, open & airey with a good range of products. M&S has its Fantastic food hall & a cafe. Somewhere to rest for 10mins after being dragged around the Toys.. rest up & enjoy a coffee/Tea..

Came on a bank holiday Monday, plenty of parking. Parking spaces are generous, only criticism is that aldi was closed. Didn't say it was on the website. Gives 2 hours free parking here which is plenty.

We went to M&S food Hall, which is great favourite items and a few bits. Good quality as you would expect. But another hit for the high Street. No town parking to pay, and not too much walking for my wife who uses a walking stick

Very helpful there are lots of good shops and car parks

Visited the Aldi store early morning it was very clean and tidy the shelves were full, there was a great selection of products from food to household items, all at a good price, get in there early to get the full shopping experience

Soup was half a bowl full. The air conditioning in this shop is also absolutely freezing, I was not the only one to comment on this, you can't walk around in just a t-shirt. Shame as the quality of the food was good.

Good place to shop. Like it's said parking bays could be bigger. Don't park over the lines or your get a ticket. I had an expensive shop for one wheel over. Just be careful..

It's good for shopping, but parking is a nightmare. They need a far bigger car park.

Can be very busy and hard to find a car park space but good shops

Parking spaces too small for a large vehicle or van, tyres on the line with back against the lamp post, photos taken are crafty as they do not show that the space is not big enough and no suitable spaces are provided for a large van, £100 fine for a 5 minute dash round Aldi what a shame for the retail stores there as revenue could be higher for them all if it wasn’t for these sort of stunts

Good selection of shops, sufficient car parking. Only negative some people fly around the car park so keep a close eye on your children.

Shops are great but the parking can sometimes be a challenge. Get here early or wait towards closing time and you may be lucky to get parked! That's the only downside, but otherwise it's a great addition to Crawley.

Design of the car park is terrible, constant traffic jams and queuing as cars cannot access the empty spaces freely. Most of the disabled spaces are taken by people without a blue badge. Just poor design and nobody checking entitlement to park.

Good place with Aldi and M&S food hall with a cafe. Friendly staff. Excellent parking for such a small retail park.
