About Stubcroft Farm Campsite
Located on a working sheep farm, the site is close to some of the South Coast's best sandy beaches and the South Downs National Park. The park is ideally located for days at the seaside or exploring nearby Chichester, just a 20 minute drive away.
For those just bringing a small or backpacker tent, the site has nine non electric grass pitches available, each allowing up to three people. These pitches are perfect for those stopping over on a walking holiday.
The rest of the grass pitches come with the option of an electric hook up, welcoming tents, caravans and campervans. There are a total of 35 standard pitches which allow up to six guests and units of up to 5m in length, 13 large grass pitches which allow up to ten guests and units of up to 7m in length and 36 extra large pitches which allow up to six guests and units of up to 8m.
For caravans and campervans up to 8m in length, there are also 20 large all weather hardstanding pitches, great for any season. Each of these pitches comes with an optional electric hook up, along with having a water point on or near your pitch.
The pitches are sheltered by trees and hedges to provide shade and shelter, ideal for the warm summer months. The peaceful private lanes and grounds surrounding the farm make it an ideal holiday for families and couples wishing to escape the pressures of modern life.
The park has previously won many awards including a Quality in Tourism 4 star rating, Green Tourism's Gold Award, a Sustainability Award for Small Businesses in the South East and several "Beautiful South" awards including a Gold for Responsible, Ethical and Sustainable Tourism, Gold for Access and Inclusivity and three Gold Awards for Camping, Caravanning and Holiday Park of the Year.
The farm also permits campfires and BBQs, great for evenings in the open. You may bring your own or hire from reception when you arrive, with food available to purchase from the onsite shop. Please note, that the shop has limited opening hours between October and March and is only open by request.
Four legged friends are welcome too, so don't forget to pack the dog biscuits!

A note from the site themselves...
Our site is sustainable and environmentally friendly. We are a family farm and we have made sure the campsite is run in keeping with that ethos. Wherever possible we will use Fairtrade and Organic produce and work hard to keep the grounds and the surrounding fields a suitable habitat for wildlife.
In our time here, we have planted new conservation hedges and trees to provide more shelter and privacy to provide as much peace and quiet for campers as possible. There is also a wealth of wildlife on the farm with over 72 species of birds identified, along with deer, hedgehogs, foxes, rabbits, rare butterflies, moths and much more!

VW-Type Campervan - XL Electric Hardstanding PitchesOct 2023
From the start, the service was great. We had a quick phone call before we had to check in to check our arrival time and give some instructions. The site is clean, tidy and facilities were immaculate. There were friendly staff and informative too.
Our hardstanding pitch was great, an extra having fresh drinking water behind the pitch was not expected but great, especially for the dogs.
We are definitely looking forward to coming back for another visit.

Yes, you can. Guests can conveniently charge their mobile phones, tablets, and rechargeable batteries for lanterns, among others, using the coin-operated mobile phone charging lockers available in the main amenity block. These lockers are designed to accommodate such devices, and what's more, 50% of the revenue generated from them goes to charities, making it a worthwhile cause.
