We were then given permission to pop the tent up early allowing us to make full use of the day. Thank you . A brilliant stay . Good facilities , good bar , great location. 👍

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Friendly staff.
Disliked: Small field, crammed in. Next to a road, noisy throughout the night. One toilet per sex, all have to share. The facilities they say they have such as tennis, bowls etc you can't use unless a member. Park is fine.

Liked: Location for travel on the buses and trains. Friendly staff.
Disliked: Toilet facilities were not great. Reminded us of being back at school and the changing rooms. Only 1 Toilet per sex in the main block. Not really good sinks to wash at.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Don't get me wrong, when we turned up and my heart sank as its a very small site... HOWEVER, turns out it was perfect. Could see the children at all times from.our tent at one of the two parks. Short walk to train station and pub Basket ball court and football field Onsite little bar Coffee van turned up on Sunday Deliveroo delivered (as did dominoes) Hot shower amd nice flushing loo Plugs in the changing area
Disliked: Changing area at the showers could do with a little revamp but really, it's a small site so I'm reaching for something to put here.

Liked: Liked being able to pitch up in our own choice of pitch. Small quiet site with friendly bar. We tried both local pubs for food and drink, enjoyed our meals in both. Close to Chichester, the harbour and wittering beaches.
Disliked: Not keen on the communal nature of the shower rooms or push button showers but not really a huge problem.

Liked: We loved this place! Such a nice friendly welcome from Barbara and Kevin. The toilets/shower are kept really clean. If you are bringing a dog there is a field just the other side of the pitches which is very useful. It was our first time using our new tent and we’re so pleased we chose here! Will book as soon as we can for 2024.

Liked: Staff were so kind and helpful. Facilities were clean. Pitches were in good condition, it rained a lot and didn't get water logged at all. Great play facilities.
Disliked: Would have liked a slightly sheltered washing up area. Option to recharge freezer blocks would be really helpful too. I would have appreciated a bigger barrier between the field and the road so I could relax a little more about my toddler playing.
