Why stay here ...

The CL is ideal for walks and bicycle rides along the coast. The site opens up to the Hayling Billy Coastal path which runs all the way to the South of the Island along the shoreline with some pebble beaches. To the North you can walk/cycle all the way up to the bridge where you find a pub with great views and superb food (www.shiplangstone.co.uk). You will pass a nature reserve which is a breeding ground for a large amount of varies seabirds just off the coast. There are benches along the trail and it’s a great place to watch the sunsets over the water with Portsmouth in the background.

A bus stop is just at the end of the long driveway with connections to the South of the Island, Portsmouth and Chichester. 3 pubs and a well-stocked local farm shop are within walking distance. The field is large and level surrounded by horse fields. Kayaking and fishing opportunities just outside the gate. I’ve been told the golf course on Hayling is very good.

We have a toilet for the camper's sole use and the Electric Hook Ups have 16 amps. There are 5 hardstanding pitches for use in the wetter months.

Dogs are very welcome but have to be kept on leash on the site. Unfortunately we can’t accept children due to the horses being close by.

Portsmouth, Chichester and the South Downs National Park are just a short drive away.

Beautiful, Peaceful and Quiet Site

Westcroft Stables
A wonderful stay at Westcroft stables with our dog. There were plenty of walks and a burger van nearby which sold Dog Ice Cream. There is also a farm shop within walking distance. Sabine, the site owner was so nice and helpful we would stay there in the future.

Good Site

Westcroft Stables
Despite being close to a busy road the peace of the site is not disturbed by this Bus stop 200 mtrs to Havant for Coastliner links to Portsmouth and Chicheste, or to Hayling Island Beach Coastal Path ( foot/bicycle) a few hundred metres by path round the horse paddocks. There are 5 hardstanding pitches in addition to the grass paddock if it is wet (and there was a lot of rain when we were there in April The owner is pleasant and helpful Robin

Pleasant site. Handy for visits

Westcroft Stables
Only a short 7 night stay. Trips to historic Portsmouth and Brighton were good days out and the coastal walk looks good too. Followed advice of driving to Lidl roundabout as tight access otherwise. Nothing negative but couldn't find a light in the chemical disposal room. Looking forward to return for future exploration of the area.

sept 22 weekend stay

Westcroft Stables
just spent our first weekend at this site - great location with easy access from A27 - spacious site with good and reliable water and power supplies and Sabine relaxed and flexible about where we pitched. Sabine (understandably) clear in explaining horses not to be fed and alerted us to the electric fencing surrounding the horse areas (we had an inquisitive dog with us). Our dog is desperate to get to rabbits visible through the van windows and when walking - she is keen enough to get to squirrells at home but rabbits even more so! Others have mentioned the tight right turn into the site access lane which we managed but needs care as does the left turn out of the site onto the public road but all doable. Adjacent billy trail walk alongside the harbour is very pleasant and view from trail of sunset over Portsmouth striking. We experienced no disturbance from horses other than occasional "neighs". Loo basic but clean and adequate. Worth noting that Sabine happy for you to choose your own spot in the site provided you keep 8m distance from other units and no need to check in with Sabine on arrival - just pick your spot and set up. We enjoyed our visit - thankyou.

Perfect!

Super friendly welcome from Sabine who made our stay absolutely perfect. Fab site in a great location - we can’t wait to return, nor can our two German shepherds! As others have said don’t try turning right in to the site, go down to the Lidl roundabout and double back makes is so much easier.
