Liked: Charlie and Peter were very well organised, there to greet us with bags of wood and advice on how to look after the land. If you’re looking for a green campsite to explore Hayling island this would be perfect!

From the manager: Thank you for saying I am organised as I do need to be to make sure that allocate the pitches where possible so people with children are together and near the compost loos and if there are larger groups of adults they are at the other end of the field.
I am happy you appreciated the green aspect of our campsite.

Liked: Quiet peaceful site. Nice big pitches. Two compost toilets, fresh drinking water. Cold shower (cubicle)under the Willow tree. Washing up area. Cleaning products provided as waste water runs into a stream. Firepits and logs are available if requested. Local pub about 20 minutes walk away. Billy Trail for cycling/walking about 5 minutes away. Garage just along the road for supplies. This was our 2nd visit and we would go back.
