Everyone was so friendly and welcoming, making us feel at ease straight away. When we arrived, it was a very hot day, but all the staff were smiling, happy, and clearly enjoyed what they do. We stayed on Pitch 51, a lovely non-electric grass pitch that was clean, tidy, and well maintained. The shower and toilet facilities were spotless too. The location was perfect for us. We didn’t need to drive anywhere for a few days, and being able to walk straight from the site with our dogs made the weekend even more enjoyable. We had such a lovely weekend and can’t wait to come back. We’ll definitely be visiting again very soon! · via Google [Adam Keelan](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/104022885325960898406/reviews) ★★★★★ Still a terrific campsite - nice pitches, super clean, great facilities , friendly and helpful staff. If you want quiet pitch Id suggest not booking Oak Field which is great for groups but may be boisterous (in a nice way). Bbqs fire pits all possible. Bar of sorts, fresh croissants and pizza some nights. All in all a lovely place . Ubers work in the area if you need a taxi - pickup best on metalled road near Bupa care home! · via Google [Claire Mason](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/104379446763747130877/reviews) ★★★★★ We had a fantastic stay over the Easter holidays. The site was well organised with excellent, very clean facilities and a small shop. If you stay in a pitch without electric they have lockers to charge phones etc £1 per session which is v useful. All the staff were friendly and helpful and they made it fun for the children with activities such as an Easter Egg hunt and drawing competition. The location is great as you’re in the middle of beautiful countryside, with amazing starry skies but walkable to the village and beach and a short walk to some alpacas! It felt very safe and all campers were very friendly and respectful so it was a great experience. Recommend this site, very handy for the Witterings, Chichester etc. We’ll be back! · via Google [Bruna Plateroti](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/113114287256276658574/reviews) ★★★★★ Our first time in this campsite. We stayed here for 2 nights as we wanted to relax and take a break from the busy city. I would say mission accomplished! The place is very clean with great pitches. Our area was quiet with nice people around. The facilities are kept well always clean. The staff is friendly and always available to help. The bar makes very good coffees and if you like you can pre-order pastry to be delivered to your pitch in the morning. Unfortunately, due to the recent hot weather we could not use our fire pit but it was still a great experience as we had 2 separate small gas grill with us. East Wittering Beach is only 20 min away and it is a lovely walk if you want to break the day. Lovely ice cream too! Highly recommend this campsite we will definitely be back! Thank you for the hospitality. · via Google ## At a glance **Address** East Bracklesham Drive [Get directions](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=50.7631711%2C-0.8552619) **Category** Beaches & Coastline **Suitable for** All Ages **Setting** Outdoor **Dogs allowed** Yes **Good for children** Yes **Toilets on site** Yes **Destination** Chichester [More attractions in Chichester](https://staycation.co.uk/chichester/attractions) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Chichester **Payment** Cards, Contactless **Plus Code** 9C2XQ4FR+QH [Directions ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/dir//''/data=!4m7!4m6!1m1!4e2!1m2!1m1!1s0x4874513150349927:0xc619adfeaa0d8511!3e0?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [More photos on Google ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x4874513150349927:0xc619adfeaa0d8511!10e5?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ### 🏨 Places to stay near Chichester Hotels, B&Bs and self-catering on Booking.com, with live prices.
