Liked Charlie and Peter were very well organised, there to greet us with bags of wood and advice on how to look after the land. If you’re looking for a green campsite to explore Hayling island this would be perfect!

From the manager: Thank you for saying I am organised as I do need to be to make sure that allocate the pitches where possible so people with children are together and near the compost loos and if there are larger groups of adults they are at the other end of the field.
I am happy you appreciated the green aspect of our campsite.
