Liked: The site was easy to find. We were met when we arrived by two very friendly people who showed us where to pitch up and gave us all the necessary info. All the pitches were level which is great. 3 showers, 3 toilets in the womens - all clean. Mens clean too. Lovely place to stay with walks and things for the kids to do. We forgot milk and a gentleman in the kitchen in the centre kindly gave us some to tide us over for the next morning. Yes trains go by but it does say that in the blurb, I'm a light sleeper and it didn't keep me awake. I would definitely stay here again. The site says it doesn't take cars next to your pitch, we were in a campercan with awning and i rang to see if would be allowed to stay and it was absolutely fine.
Disliked: There seemed to be no hot water to wash the dishes in or in the sink in the ladies room. But for the price of the pitch, I wasn't too worried about it and we were only there for 1 night.

Liked: Camp site was perfect, great location especially as we stayed here because we were heading to the Goodwood Festival of Speed! Hosts were so nice and even helped us pump our beds up with an electric pump! 10/10 would recommend and stay again even if it wasn’t for the Goodwood weekend!
Disliked: Honestly can’t think of anything we disliked!

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.

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.
