Very satisfied with our stay at Bucket & Spade. We were met on arrival & shown to our plot. Due to our large rig the owner allocated us a large area to turn in & park up. Much appreciated. Shower & toilet facilities were clean & tidy. The overall campsite was well kept.

It was a great stay, if you want to do nothing and just chill it's a perfect place. The pub just 5 minutes walk was amazing great services and food was very nice.

Had a really lovely weekend at Bucket and Spade. A special thank you to Peter who greeted us on arrival, and then went out of his way to help us fix an electrical problem with our caravan. He went above and beyond, solving a very stressful situation. We will definitely be booking another trip. Many thanks.

It was everything we needed. Facilities were regularly cleaned to a high standard. Pitches were spacious and you could choose a range of different camping spots. The people looking after the site were warm and helpful.

Great stay. Very welcoming and attentive staff. Exceptionally clean and well maintained. Only reason for not 5 stars all round was no Wi-Fi, no hairdryer and no hot water on last night to wash up. Otherwise, would definitely stay again.

A nice quiet and small site for a relaxing weekend getaway. Nice walks and fields on your doorstep. Great showers and loos which were clean. Friendly staff and well laid pitches.

Just stayed at Bucket and Spade in May 2025 and it was excellent. Lovely people and a great site with good walks and just a short drive to the beach.

Immaculate site, looking way better than the photos online. The access to the pitches is a pebble one and the hard standing pitches are very good size with lush green grass between. The shower and toilet block had two full bathrooms and one additional toilet with basin. Never needed to wait in line and all was spotlessly clean. The washing up room and chemical disposal was also immaculate. The site was easy to find half way between the Anchor pub and the Esso petrol station. Had a lovely walk to the village and the Crab and Lobster bar/restaurant. Highly recommended and clearly very well run.

Lovely quiet site. Large pitches with EHU. Fabulous showers. Brilliant pub 3 minute walk with excellent food, really friendly and made my dogs very welcome. My first solo trip, I felt very safe. The road was fast moving traffic, but noise level was very acceptable from my pitch and did not give me a problem. I would go there again.
Lovely little site - relaxing few days!

An idyllic setting - perfect location for everything we wanted to do. We visited West Wittering beach, parked in Hunston and walked along the canal into Chichester, then played crazy golf at Chichester Golf Club nearby. The shepherd's hut itself was beautiful and the facilities were perfect for our little family. We really enjoyed sitting outside with the fire pit in the evenings watching the sun go down.

Nice little site. Nice toilet block with 2 showers. Massive fields adjoining it which the dog loved. Nice little pub over the road which we had a nice meal in. Down side is there isn't much else to do. It's off a very busy road with very narrow paths, so difficult to walk anywhere else.
Gorgeous, warm, cosy and well equipped wagon

Gorgeous wagon, well equipped and ingenious carpentry. It was spotlessly clean on arrival. We were toasty warm at night, and the kids adored the bunk beds. We had a lovely view across a field of yellow flowers, and could see deer at night and rabbits in the morning. We made use of the BBQ and our own little garden area. We had a great stay - loved Fishbourne Roman Palace, Chichester, the local RSPB reserve and Bosham. Great place to stay for our 3 nights and surprisingly comfortable. Thank you.

Hardstanding was good and level. it was a shame there had been so much heavy rain as it made access to and from the facilities a very muddy walk. Maybe a hard roadway to give better access for future consideration. The pub is really only a 5 minute walk and was very pleasant with good food. The site was good for us to do the things that we wanted in our short break.
Really relaxing stay

We chose the Bucket & Spade, initially as we wanted an affordable base close to Chichester. All others we found online were closed or really expensive. This is quite a simple site but the positives for this site are it's great position and bus stop within yards. We got bus so easily to Chichester. Big showers. Hard standing pitches (although you do have to cross a bit of field/grass to get to them). Pub within a minute's walk. Esso garage and Londis shop within minutes. Lots of footpaths. Beautiful quaint 13 century church to visit. It was quiet. We saw deer and squirrels. Really met our needs.

I really enjoyed our stay, the campsite had good sized plots, for our camper van. The campsite was well kept, the facilities where very clean, they had hot water every morning for a shower and recycling of refuse available.
Great stop off location and a small, convenient site

Slight mix up on arrival as hadn't been sent gate key or pitch location by email or text. Soon sorted and an apology from owner. Pleasant stay, nice clean facilities. More of a stop over than a final destination location I'd say.

A small site but in an ideal location between Chichester and Selsey. Facilities are spotless though, with only one washing up sink. This was however not an issue when we stayed late September. Peter, the owner, is exceptional. He gave us a very friendly welcome and lots of invaluable advice about the local area, particularly cycle routes. Highly recommend!

Set in a lovely part of the world. This was a well kept site with very clean toilet and shower facilities. It was quiet and with a short walk to a pub - which is one of our main search criteria!

Great site just 10 minutes drive from Chichester. Toilet & shower block looked new. Nice quiet site, apart from a bit of road noise, definitely one to go back to.
