  • Secluded and small site with amazing views over the South Downs
  • A 25-minute drive to Arundel Cathedral and Worthing beach
  • A historic site with walks, shops and pubs nearby
Warminghurst Camping is way off the road, off grid and tucked away in West Sussex farm fields. This is a small site offering spectacular views of the South Downs and ancient Chanctonbury Ring. History buffs – take note: here you will be sleeping on the site of a house formerly owned by William Penn, the Quaker founder of Pennsylvania, USA. Basic facilities include one flushing toilet, two composting toilets, plus access to at least one washing-up sink and shower with hot water. Cars are allowed on pitches in dry conditions – if the field becomes too wet, alternative parking is provided, along with a wheelbarrow to transfer all your gear to the field. There are oodles of walks straight from the site, leading through woodland and open farmland. The nearest pub serves local beer and good food and is a 15-minute stroll away on a good footpath – so you can leave the car behind. A drive around the area turns up loads of other eating options in small villages nearby. You can stock up on essentials in Ashington (five minutes’ drive), with a convenience store, petrol station and chemist. The supermarket, local butchers and indie shops in Storrington (10 minutes) should serve all your other needs. No recorded music on site please – but playing acoustic stringed instruments is actively encouraged between the hours of 10am and 10pm.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Really enjoyed my short stay at Warminghurst Camping - my only regret is not being agle to stay for more than one night!

Being a solo camper I have specific things that I look for in a site, and I thought the description for this site was really clear and gets across what to expect, which is just what I was looking for.

It is a quiet site, away from road noise. It is really well spaced out with pitches somewhat mown into field, allowing for a secluded feel without being isolated. It felt really peaceful.

There are good, clean facilities with two gas-powered showers, a flushing loo and a compost loo plus a couple of washing up stations (one with drinking water, not sure about the other as didn't visit). These are located around the small site.

Chris was really welcoming and helpful, good to know he was around although he left the campers to it.

There is a ~1km easy walk to the local pub, and similar short walk to the decomissioned grade 1-listed Church of the Holy Sepulchre, which is worth a look.

From the manager: Thanks for your generous review. The nearby church of the Holy Sepulchre, Warminghurst is actually still a consecrated space although sadly no regular services are now held there. Campers are welcome to visit and to sign their names in the visitors book.

Everything you need from a small campsite.

Liked Nice peaceful small campsite. Bit of a rave going on nearby, but even that finished at a respectable time!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks for the review, I'm sorry your visit coincided with a rather noisy neighbouring event beyond my control. The site is normally peaceful.

Lovely small site with spacious pictures…
