Positiv This is my third year coming here and I wouldn't go anywhere else as it's a beautiful peaceful place. The kitchen facilities are great with cooker, microwave, fridge and freezer. The free wifi is a must for me as it's just me and my dog! The shower facilities and toilets are clean and the taps are useful for nice cold water. It's near to the places I always visit. Alison is a lovely lady and came down to check all was well and I know if I had a problem, I could call her. Thank you for a lovely stay and will see you next Father's Day weekend.

Positiv If I could score zero stars, I would.

Negativ SCARY place, felt totally unsafe. No-one to greet you, totally empty, except one lonely tent that was deserted.
The host, who is only contactable by phone, was a complete ogre. Unhelpful, unkind and disrespectful.
Toilets looked like something out of a war zone.
AVOID!!!!

Vom Platzbetreiber: Dear Wayne,
I apologise for your unhappy experience in the rain and was trying to explain that I was sending you the checkin information and pitch map by return email after I received your booking at 3.17pm. I managed this by 3.42pm by which time you were already having difficulty finding the Field and the gloomy, rainy weather was not helping the mobile phone reception. You did say that you had just seen my email, but were already exiting and did not stay. The other guests here at the time were inside their tent as it was raining and they did not want to get wet.
I have refunded your payment of £38 in full. You should receive it into your bank account 5/10 days.
kind regards,
Alison

Positiv Facilities were excellent well maintained and clean. Alison popped round to met us and had acgrest chat about all the local things to do. The pitches are clear and give plenty of space.

Positiv I thought this is a lovely little site, I like the way all pitches are made individual by cutting the grass on the pitch but not the surrounding grass. the toilets were okay but the showers were really good, very spacious, I loved the heated floor. Alison was helpful and very nice.

Negativ The directions on how to get there. (maybe use what three words)

Vom Platzbetreiber: Dear Anon,
I am sorry that you found it tricky to get to the entrance,
I have now found the
What 3 Words ///lively.cool.certified
for the site and added it to my check in information alongside a revised Pitch Location Map which hopefully will enable others to find the Camping Field more easily.
kind regards,
Alison

Positiv Good location

Negativ Only 2 decent showers.
Filthy badly maintained porta loos.
Gas powered showers that could easily scald.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Dear Colin,
were you scalded in the shower ?? NO you were not as it is impossible to be scalded in any of my showers.
Please do not post false information as that is not acceptable.

Your comments about filthy portaloos are personal comments not actual facts.
I clean them daily.
I am saddened that you had such a low opinion on line when I did not get that feeling when I spoke to you and gave you maps of the area and information about local places to visit.
At no time did you tell me these concerns.

I also do not understand the comment about overpriced as you knew the price when you booked, so what was the over priced element ? if you were concerned about this camping field being overpriced then you could easily have booked somewhere else ?

What price would you have been happy to pay ??

You had free wifi at your pitch.
I am very sad that you have been so unhappy to have posted such a review.
kind regards,
Alison

Positiv Absolutely perfect for what we needed. We used this as a base from which to explore Arundel.
We have a large tent and were offered a good sized pitch. Instructions for turning up were clear; very simple arrival.
Campsite has good basic amenities - plenty of taps and portaloos dotted around the field and plumbed toilets in the shower block, showers lovely and warm, washing up room with fridge and microwave.
Alison came by everyday to check everything was ok.
Excellent value for money.
