Tyckte om Location to Gatwick for outbound flights

Tyckte inte om Washing up facilities a ground based soiled butlers sink with tired house pipe. Toilets adequate. In flight path to Gatwick so only a 5-6 hour quiet window

Från föreståndaren: I’m most confused by your review, you liked that we are in a good location to Gatwick (about a 30-40 minute drive for those reading this) and yet disliked that you have planes heading to Gatwick?!?! A total contradiction….?

For clarity for those reading this, any plane heading to Gatwick is at a considerable height due to our distance from the airport, I’m not even sure this has been mentioned in a review of our campsite before that is how insignificant it is!

Yes our washing up area is a large butler sink, nothing less, nothing more.
Our facilities overall are exactly as we claim them to be, we are a basic rural campsite and I simply can’t emphasise enough that if anyone is looking for considerably more facilities than we offer here then please don’t book to stay at our campsite as we could not be clearer about our offerings.
For those that want a basic rural camping weekend in a beautiful location, they love it as you’ll see from our many many reviews on here and other sites.

As for our “over rated pub grub” having won on award this year for one of the top ten pubs in West Sussex, there are many who would very much disagree with you. Everything is locally sourced and freshly prepared to order. Likewise all of our beers and ciders are local too.

Having read your other reviews too, I may suggest that perhaps camping is not for you and a hotel may be better suited as it appears you are yet to find a campsite you actually like.

Tyckte om The amount of space per pitch. We had dinner in the pub too which was fabulous. Very friendly, peaceful campsite with basic facilities

Tyckte inte om Liked everything.

Tyckte om Clean tidy toilets

Tyckte inte om No hot water to wash hands, no soap, no fire pits (too dry) lighting in toilets went off in 20 seconds so in pitch black, pub is over priced, no washing up facilities

Rekommendera för vänner Besök igen

Från föreståndaren: Our listing is exactly as stated, a basic rural campsite, no more no less.
We have toilets, cold water sinks (with soap so not sure how you missed the large blue bottles!) and a large butler sink for washing up. The toilets have lights that come on with movement sensors, they do not only stay on for 20 seconds but the rest of the campsite is not lit as we are in a rural location and it is in our listing and our welcome letter that a torch will be required, which I would have thought was common sense when camping but it would appear not.

As for fire pits...yes it is too dry, have you missed the weather, the news with wildfires around the country and the fact that the grass is literally brown and dry.
There was a wildfire only a few miles from us on Sunday just gone with fire crews in attendance for over 12 hours, I can share the link with you if you wish as perhaps this will educate you as to why we have taken the sensible decision not to permit firepits currently. We put guest safety and the protection of our home, our business and our beautiful surrounding countryside before moronic comments like yours and stand by that decision 100%. Furthermore, every single guest is made aware of this in advance by email and text message and it also states in out listing that firepits may not be allowed if weather conditions are not suitable.

As for pub being overpriced, astounding how you can comment on this given that you did not dine at the pub.....seems you are just being vindictive with a 1/10 score and inaccurate comments.

Tyckte om A fantastic set up, simple and yet ideal. The toilets were well maintained and clean, the field is minimal but has plenty of space for the children to play and to have a wander around with the dog.

The blue ship pub is incredible and an absolute must for those staying on site. Fresh, home cooked food that was delicious. The service was wonderful, felt like a real home from home. They were clued up on allergies (I’m coeliac) and even went out of their way to cook a pudding from scratch for me to enjoy.

It’s a brilliant base point for exploring West Sussex. For our first camping trip it didn’t disappoint and we would most definitely return in future.

Tyckte inte om Not a dislike as such, but I’d have loved to have been able to pop into the blue ship for breakfast some mornings.
