  • Basic, quiet and dog-friendly site half an hour’s walk from Arundel
  • South Downs Way 10 minutes’ drive; Goodwood Motor Circuit 20 minutes
  • Next door to a pub-restaurant; 10 mins’ drive from West Sussex beaches
Fond of a fuss-free but peaceful setting with plenty to do in the local area? Maynards Caravan and Camping Park should certainly fit the bill. Simple, clean and tidy, this site has toilet and shower facilities and is 10 minutes’ drive from the West Sussex seaside. It’s also just half an hour’s walk away from Arundel, a pretty market town with museums, galleries, restaurants, cafés, a lido, cathedral and a castle largely rebuilt in Victorian times. All that is handy to have close by, whether you want a lazy day of café-hopping or an afternoon packed with sightseeing. Keen to go hiking too? Maynards is around a 10-minute drive from the South Downs Way, where you can walk for miles and miles through spectacular countryside. If you don’t want to cook when you get back from your days of adventuring in West Sussex, it's very handy that this site is next door to a pub with a restaurant. It’s also about a 15-minute walk from a convenience shop, café, takeaway and Arundel Brewery.

What customers say

Friendly, welcoming campsite with great value. Pitches are spacious & level. Facilities are clean & basic, though a bit dated. Convenient for Arundel & local sights. Some noted minor signage issues & occasional road noise.

Liked 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).

Disliked 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.

Liked 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.

It certainly wasn't worth the £35 pitch fee, However, how many are!

Liked 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!

Disliked 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!

Liked 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. 👍

Powered grass tent campsite

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

Disliked 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.

Wouldn't take much effort to smarten this campsite up a lot.

Powered grass tent campsite

Liked Walking distance to Arundel. The wooden picnic table.

Disliked 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.

Liked 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.

Local attractions

When you’re on holiday in this area, chances are you’ll want to head for the beach – and there's a good selection of seaside resorts to choose from. Closest is Littlehampton (10 minutes’ drive), with its promenade, theme park and amusement arcades. Worthing (25 minutes) has a traditional pier with a theatre and elegant restaurant, and there are a number of beaches with sandy expanses at low tide in Bognor Regis (20 minutes). Other kid-friendly ideas include WWT Arundel (10 minutes) for boat trips through the wetlands to see rare pelicans nesting. Toddlers also usually love the mini-train rides and dinosaur trails at Drusillas Park (45 minutes), while older kids may prefer fast-paced driver days at Goodwood Motor Circuit (20 minutes) If it’s history and heritage that pulls you to West Sussex, make tracks for Bignor Roman Villa to admire ornate floor mosaics, or tour the Elizabethan house and estate at Parham House and Gardens (both 20 minutes). Arundel Castle (half an hour’s walk) is a melange of architectural styles, and you can dig deep into rural life in the impressive Weald and Downland Living Museum (half an hour's drive).
