For those exploring the surrounding area, a short stroll will lead you to the quaint village of Westbourne, where you can enjoy charming cafes, a friendly pub, a fish and chip shop, and a convenient Co-Op. Additionally, a local favorite just down the road, the Stags Head pub, offers a friendly atmosphere perfect for unwinding after a day of adventures.
Tips for Visitors:
- Bring strong pegs and a sturdy hammer if planning to set up an awning on the gravel pitches.
- Enjoy the safe dog walking areas, but be cautious near road-adjacent stretches.
- TV reception is good here, making it an excellent spot to relax indoors if the weather turns.

Second time of staying at this delightful site. We use Reliance Caravan & Motorhome Services who are based in nearby Funtington, and this location is perfect for us to overnight at when we need to stay in the area. The lack of washroom facilities never bothers us as we are 100% self-contained in our motorhome. There's everything you need to hand at the side of each pitch in respect of EHU, fresh water and grey waste drain outlet. The pitches are level and spacious enough to accommodate an 8 metre unit without issue. The tended lawn area balances well with the purposefully left wild garden areas, and as a result, there's not only wild flowers growing, but lots of small birdlife too. There's a drive over grey waste drain near the office, as well as a decent elsan disposal point. Unlike some sites, this is well placed and relatively easy to be able to position your undermounted grey waste outlet over the actual drain point. A ten minute walk down to Westbourne and you've all you need in respect of cafe's, pub, fish & chip shop, Co-Op etc. We love the site and will definitely book again for our next annual habitation check visit.

Excellent pitches, with everything, literally, on tap. Very clean site with generous pitch sizes and picnic table/benches and good CV/MoHo service point. Plenty to do in the area (if it stopped raining, any way!). Recommended - we will go back.

What a find ! Perfect campsite for us and our dogs. Pitches are well spaced apart each with their own water tap and waste water drain and, of course, hook up. The picnic table on each pitch was spot on. Not like pub benches - these had backs - very comfortable. Dog walk was enjoyed by Tilly and Darcy - although one stretch is by the side of a road , the hedging and fencing kept them safe. We had quite a bit of rain, but fortunately, we had excellent TV reception, so we watched plenty of the Paralympics coverage. Went into Emsworth for a bimble about. Next visit, we'll explore the area more fully. Great stay. Thank you to the owners for a really well thought out site.

Excellent access, clean and tidy with good sized pitches well spaced apart. Good to have hard standings and gravel internal roads. Used our awning on the gravel pitch and needed our strong pegs with 4 pound hammer which was fine. Enjoyed the short walk to the Westbourne shop and the Fish and Chips in the town.
