Why stay here ...

Fir Trees CL is a tranquil, secluded site set within farmland and bound by Chichester harbour, which is designated as an area of outstanding natural beauty.  The site is located within easy reach of sandy beaches and the magnificent rolling hills of the South Downs National Park, as well as the ancient Roman walled city of Chichester. 

This is the perfect location for Goodwood House events, the Chichester Festival, and the South Downs National Park.

Buses run frequently to the beaches and to Chichester city centre. 

Within walking distance of our site are Chichester harbour, designated footpaths and trails, marinas and many excellent pubs and restaurants.

There are also many cycling trails throughout the area.

Fir Trees CL is run by Doug and Gill. We are club members and keen touring van users ourselves. We strive to ensure that Fir Trees provides everything required for a quiet and peaceful break.

One of our favourite sites

We have just had five days here and loved it. Large, mown area; quiet and relaxing. Lots of walks in the area and easy access to the CL. Doug was friendly and helpful throughout our stay and particularly so when our car broke down. The owners clearly take a pride... Show more

Beautifully kept CL

We had a lovely 5 night stay at Fir Trees in early August 2021, the site is very well maintained by Doug who gave a us a nice informative greeting. A level site, with immaculate facilities, power is 10A as stated so have to be thoughtful about usage. We enjoyed... Show more

How many visits to qualify as a regular?

Only four reviews for Fir Trees is surely a ploy on the part of Doug and Gill's regulars to discourage newcomers like us ;-)). This long established CL on a cricket pitch of a site, down to the finely cut grass, was a joy to stay at. Any good intentions... Show more

short break

We stayed here for a couple of nights having picked up our new motor home.  Quiet, easy access, easy access to water. Plenty of room. Old review showed electric problems - But Electrics were fine.  Great break. Shop within easy access along a footpath not far from the site. I have given... Show more

Fantastic Site

Lovely quiet site, away from the hustle and bustle, yet within easy access to local places of interest (of which there are many). Site is well maintained and very private. Would definitely recommend, and will be going again

One of best sites in many years (but electrics less so)

Very friendly owners / welcome. Plenty of space and well maintained. BUT, the electrics are low amperage and even a low wattage kettle tripped the supply if fridge or anything extra is running. Nevertheless we will certainly go again but rely on gas for winter heat ! Comment from Community Manager: Many... Show more
