Me and my partner and 15 yr old daughter plus three dogs stayed here from Friday 13th to Sunday 15th may and found Rowan park to be a very well maintained site ,the showers and toilets were spotless and the staff were all very friendly. The only downside was the traffic noise but this didn't really bother us but may be a problem for some people.
The dog walk next to the site was great for our dogs although the rabbits around the site in the evening's were a bit of a tease for our two lurchers .
We all feel that this site will definitely be seeing us again soon !
Noisier now
Thanks to the new road which is now the main cross route around Bognor the site is much noisier on three sides. It is a nice site however, great wardens and spotless toilet/showers. There are many shops near the site and it is just 2 miles to the beach and Butlins. Chichester is 20 mins car ride - a lovely place. In fact the whole of the south coast is accessible from the site. Give it a go, but ask where it is less noisy!
Peace in a busy area
We spent 5 days at this site during May 2016 and found the site a haven of peace in an increasingly busy part of the world - we have been here several times before. The wardens were lovely people going out of their way to be as helpful as possible. The new extension to the A259 makes access to the site much easier and allows avoidance of the rather poor road surfaces that one had to use in the past, although it is worth bearing in mind that the new road was to facilitate a lot more house building. Judicious use of roads and times of day for traveling will enhance a stay here.

As previous reviews
Nice site, friendly and helpful wardens. Toilets spotless. Unfortunately we were on the "outside" row or pitches and the site is on the corner of a busy junction with main roads on two sides and a large industrial site just acorss the roundabout so it was pretty noisy. Macdonalds across the road is 24-hours so noise all throught the night. There is a Lidle, Burgher King etc. also across the road. We could not speak for the pitches towards the back as they are probaly quieter. Large wild life resereve off the site entrance is an ideal dog walk.
Time and again
We stayed here a number of times last year and found it is near supermarkets (walking distance). It does suffer from traffic noise most of the day and evening. It is close to many attractions and days out. Bognor town and beach are close by as is Chichester And Goodwood.
40 years on
Chose the site because we wished to go down memory lane to see how a caravan park we used to stay on 40 odd years ago had faired. Rowan park turned out to be about a 50 metres away though it had been swallowed up by the Bognor out of town retail Park. As for Rowan Park - we found everything to be excellent and the only reason we did not give an overall 5 stars was due to traffic noise.
2nd visit this season
Had 2 nights at Rowan park again , very clean, neat site and very helpful and polite friendly wardens and assistants. They are now able to cut the grass as the site is now drying up , which means the grass pitches can open , which are in a lovely setting . Went into Bognor, walked along the seafront, and went around the shops. Retail park opposite is handy , went to Sainsburys for breakfast it was very good. We will return as lovely site and plenty yet to visit .

Lovely site
Just spent a lovely week-end at this site. It was spotlessly clean and excellent facilities. Lots of shops opposite to look round and lots of bargains purchased. Went into Bognor and had a lovely walk along the beach. Found a nice cafe which we could take the dog in and the cakes were delicious. Got a pitch on the inside of the site and did not hear any traffic noise in the caravan. Wardens were lovely and very helpful. Would definitely return. Just wish they would put a zebra crossing outside as road very busy.

Be warned
This site is located opposite a retail park and has 2 very busy roads that run along 2 sides of the park. The road noise is horrendous day and night. Anyone thinking of party members sleeping in a tent or awning should understand they might not get much sleep. Sitting in the awning or outside in the sun is ruined by the continuous noise. The play park is not suitable for young children and requires updating. How the site can be claimed to be great for families is beyond me. Yes the Wardens are keeping the facilities to normal club standards and yes the site location (apart from the road) is very convenient. We will definitely not be returning to this site.
Great site
Stayed 2 nights , lovely site, very tidy, well kept. Smashing wardens and assistants.Thankyou.
Previous reviews mention road noise , we noticed it when at the entrance but did not worry us . Would return. Handy for shops .Went to local pub , very good meal, we ordered from the smaller menu, still couldn't finish.
