South Downs Campsite

You’re in the middle of the South Downs National Park here, and that means lots of places to get out for scenic walks – perhaps try the nature reserves at Kingley Vale or Butser Hill, or hit the South Downs Way, which is around a 20-minute walk from the site. Having brought your doggie pal along on hols, you’ll not be wanting to leave them on their own while you gallivant around, so the folks on site have compiled a list of dog-friendly days out nearby. Among them are Arundel Castle, the Weald & Downland Living Museum, the ruins of Cowdray Castle and the gorgeous West Dean Gardens. For a blast of sea air, take the 40-minute drive to West Wittering; the East Head area of the beach is open to paddling dogs all year round.
