Creative Camping: Grassy pitches (photo added by manager on 09/05/2022)

General

  • Friendly West Sussex campsite with handy indoor space
  • A 10-minute drive from Selsey and Chichester
  • Indoor 'beach' area with sandpit, books and games

Find your new happy place at Creative Camping, an aptly named campsite close to the West Sussex coastline. Located midway between Selsey on the coast and the historic city of Chichester, this laidback spot is a top pick for families and friends looking for a getaway somewhere just that little bit different.

As well as the well-maintained pitches and green outdoor area, Creative Camping has a spacious indoor area for guests to enjoy. Come and relax on the indoor 'beach', sit back on one of the comfy chairs, let the kids play in the sandpit or take your pick of the games and books on offer. The indoor space also has a lounge and dining area, a kitchen with sinks, two toilets, two showers, a changing room and a baby changing table.

When you spend time outside, you'll appreciate the site's quiet location away from the road and the natural feel of the place – sit back and relax and it's quite likely that you'll see birds of prey flying overhead.

Dogs are welcome here and there's easy access to footpaths in the local area for their walks.

The sensible use of open fires and barbecues is allowed, and guests can make use of the site's big barbecue and pizza oven. Handily, Sidlesham village centre, where there is a pub, is about a quarter of a mile away to the north.

    This is a great site if you have young children. There is a well thought out area inside for washing up, using the microwave or just chilling on the sofa. The toikes and showers were clean.

    Disliked: 

    Not the camp sites fault. Due to the heavy rain and flooding the ground is a quagmire. We were able to move onto the parking area during our stay.

    Very friendly staff and quirky common room that made it unique. If I’m the area again would use again.😄

    Too many ‘Do Not…..’ signs. If people used their common sense and respected each other their should be no need for them.

    We really enjoyed our 2 nights at Creative Camping. Kym and her brother were there to welcome us, at a slightly later check in. Kym was so friendly and welcoming.
    The facilities are great! There is a small building with no only a toilet and showers, but a little living room where you can hang out and a sand pit for kids!
    Also loved the fact there are firepits and extra chairs you can borrow during your stay.
    Kym has thought of everything!
    We didn't spend loads of time on the property but will definitely come back to stay again, with some family!

    Problem with this entrance from the road to drive very uneven and ripping off my jockey wheel off my scooter trailer.The site’s owners did their best to repair it that was appreciated but it failed spectacularly next day when we tried to load and move it. Thanks to the other campers that helped us hook up or we were really stuck. Had to cancel next stop came home for repair.

Local attractions

There are all sorts of coastal corners you'll want to explore while in West Sussex, from the wildlife haven wetlands of RSPB Pagham Harbour (five minutes' drive) to the cheerful seafront at Selsey (10 minutes) or the sandy stretches of West Wittering (15 minutes).

Slightly further afield, it's easy to get to other maritime spots, whether you fancy a day trip to the seaside resort and pleasure harbour at Littlehampton (30 minutes) or want to walk around the historic dockyards of Portsmouth (30 minutes). Jaunts to the bright lights and vintage shops of Brighton (an hour and 10 minutes) are also on the cards if you fancy a really special day out.

There's also much to see and do inland locally, with many of the prettiest parts of the South Downs National Park just a short drive away. While you're in the area, make sure to check out pretty historic country estates like Arundel Castle (25 minutes), and if ancient history's your thing you can make tracks for the mosaics and columns of Fishbourne Roman Palace (15 minutes).
