Liked We were extremely happy with our stay! The owners are absolutely lovely and super welcoming. There is plenty of space for everyone—they don't try to cram in as many people as possible, but genuinely care about guests' comfort. Right next to the campsite, there are horses you can watch, which is just wonderful! We will definitely be back!

Liked Convenient location, relatively small, simple campsite, easy to find. We've returned here a few times now and Charlie and Peter are great hosts - there if you need anything, but not if you don't need them. West facing for lovely sunsets. Lots of birds (some of which were VERY noisy at 4am but if you're not prepared for that then don't go camping!)

Eco loos aren't my favourite, but these ones don't smell and they're well maintained (except when a teenage boy has been in before you and peed all over the seat... but you can't control for that!)

Disliked There's slight road noise from the main road, but if you look at the map you'd be able to tell that anyway! Also on our first night there were idiots next to us up chatting until after 1am and had their fire so big it was concerning - we're in the middle of a heatwave and there's already been a wildfire on Hayling this summer. Reported it and Charlie and Peter dealt with it.

Also, I wish Echo was a more sociable dog - she's a very good, beautiful girl that keeps her distance from people and other dogs, but I'd have loved to have given her pets! Perhaps Charlie or Peter will give her some from me! :-)

Liked We liked the field and its views of the horses. We liked the other wildlife there too, saw a fox, bats, swifts etc. and the cows mooing next door. Loved that we could have a campfire (fire pit). The compost toilets were surprisingly great. Loved the willow tree washing up station. Good location too, farm shop close, Billy walking trail close, Sam’s Sunflowers, Donkey sanctuary.

Disliked Not really anything that would stop me coming back! A little bit of road noise perhaps.

Liked It was very relaxing. I enjoyed the watching the horses in the field within the camping field. No fuss, no stress and a perfectly pleasant night!

Liked We had a lovely two-night stay here this weekend and would definitely return. It’s a peaceful, quiet campsite with basic facilities, but everything was spotlessly clean and well looked after. The shower is cold, as clearly mentioned in the listing, but it was actually really refreshing in the hot weather. We also loved the eco-friendly toiletries provided. The owners were very friendly and welcoming, and nothing was too much trouble. A great little campsite if you’re looking for a simple, relaxing stay.

From the manager: So pleased that you enjoyed your stay at our campsite.
Thank you for noticing how we try to keep the campsite clean and provide Faith In Nature products in the shower and handwash and Sesi for the washing up liquid which we get refills from the bulk shop on the island.
look forward to your staying again.

Liked Lovely people who were verry helpful and gave us lots of information about the local area!!!
The facilities were good, the camp sight was pretty and the area was lovely.

From the manager: Thank you for commenting about the facilities at the camp site.
We are pleased that the information was useful for you as if you don't know the area it is surprising how many different things there are to do on the island and nearby.

Liked Lovely host who came to greet us and tell us where everything was, including a list of pubs/ walks etc nearby and how to get to them.
Description absolutely accurate and with no booking the next day, allowed us to stay a bit extra - very grateful for that, so thank you.

Also loved the toilets being compost, the toilet paper being the most sustainable in the UK (who gives a crap) and provided shower bits and washing up bits as they're environmentally friendly to the stream - loved the sustainability - keep it up ☺️

Had a wonderful time in a very accommodating campsite - thank you again, will be back soon!

From the manager: So pleased that you appreciated the environmental nature of the campsite. We use Faith in Nature products for the shower and Sesi for the washing up liquid which we buy from the Bulk shop on the island. I have used both Who gives a Crap and Naked Paper loo paper and alternate between them as love the charitable and sustainable ethos of WGAC but also love the very sustainable Naked Paper too.
I am pleased that the information sheet was helpful to help you take advantage of the island.
whenever no-one has booked a pitch for the following day we always allow campers to leave when they want.
Look forward to seeing you again.
