Liked: Layout, immaculate loos and showers, location. Nice level site with plenty of room between pitches.

Liked: Nice small campsite. Fairly well set up with good & clean facilities. Very close to footpaths for walking. Well located for Selsey, Chichester etc.
Disliked: Downside- site is quite close to the road- which isn’t mentioned in the main description of the site. (Although the people running it/ did move us to a pitch as far back from the road as possible). Only other note is-signs for the campsite are not very clear at all & trying to see them while on a busy main road was difficult & took a few attempts. If much clearer & larger signs were there it would be far easier.
