Maynards Caravan and Camping Park

Positiv everything about the site we couldn’t fault it

Freunden empfehlen Erneut besuchen

Positiv Friendly management; large pitches but overall a smaller campsite; clean shower/ toilet blocks and washing up facilities.
Prev. reviews mention concerns with toilet blocks and washing up areas, but we found them to be clean and more then adequate, and couldn't really find fault.
Close to town and a pretty quick drive to the beach. Plenty of shops nearby for last minute groceries.
Good pitch sizes with no restrictions to tent size (ours is s little on the big size).

Negativ Noisy road nearby, but probably due more to road works and diverted traffic so likely a temporary problem.
No wifi but we didn't really need it and mobile phone reception was excellent.

Positiv The campsite was in a great location. It was a nice flat site with plenty of room to pitch our large family tent. The family running the site were absolutely lovely and so accommodating! The showers were hot and the toilet blocks were very clean. It was overall a quiet site with only occasional sounds from the road. We even saw deer in the field behind! We look forward to returning.

Positiv The site is well located behind a beefeater pub, which was well run an the food was more than satisfactory for the money, very relaxed site owners, and Woody's pizza van turned up on the Saturday night (smelt devine) but we had booked at the pub!

Negativ Only 5 amp on the electric hook up, so forget hair dryers ect, and the chemical toilet disposable area has a lot to be desired! No flush or running water!

Positiv Me and a friend booked this site last minute to go sea fishing. It’s a great small chilled out site in a brilliant location it’s a 5 minute walk from Arundel centre and a short drive to Chichester harbour where we had booked a boat for fishing. The weather has been amazing, it was also Goodwood festival of speed so groups of lads sat outside late as did we and everyone was very respectful and kept the noise down. When following the satnav pull into the beef eater car park look right and you will see the sign for the caravan/camping site.
100% will be back. 👍

Positiv Nice and quiet. Good size pitches. Good location.

Negativ We didnt know where the owners were when we arrived.
We ended up knocking on the Lodge house to be told they live in the first caravan. Showers were disgusting one was out of order (there are only two to start with). The other was flooded. The toilets smelt. The sinks drain straight into the trough below. The mop and bucket was disgusting. It was the same water when we arrived until we left. The hand dryer was out of order, and a towel was provided. We were there Thursday to Sunday, and it hadn't been changed once. Maybe provide paper towels at least its more hygienic. This was just the ladies toilets and showers. The so-called sinks to do your dishes in were filthy. One of the sinks was being used as the drain for the washing machine. The disabled toilet was being used as the owners storage with all sorts in including golf clubs. The Biffa bins were overflowing, we witnessed the owner jumping up and down in the bins to make more room. The worst one as if all of that wasnt bad enough the chemical disposal for camping/caravan toilets was like a nightmare. It was filthy deep in excrement no running water to wash the cassettes out or to clean where you had just emptied. The owner told us to use one of the taps on the pitches that is used for filling your kettle etc. We have never experienced anything like it.

Positiv Walking distance to Arundel. The wooden picnic table.

Negativ Hard to find - no signage on street, found it sitting inside the campsite entrance next to the overflowing dumper bins. No obvious checkin - found the owner/manager inside her caravan when we went to enquire how we checkin. Fridge, washing machine, hand dryer in women's WC all out of order. Showers have no curtain, you step out into an ankle deep puddle of water which does not drain away. Place generally scruffy and dilapidated - inside or out. Tent camping sitea all on slight slopes and/or with dips. No WiFi. Nowhere to charge phones etc.

Positiv Nice level field with plenty of EHU and water points. Large pitches and no long list of rules. Great location - 10 minutes walk from the station and about 20 minutes in to Arundel. Enjoyed our stay and would return.
