Traffic Noise….Remember when pitching up!

For us personally once pitched up, we explore by foot or public transport. Our first visit to Rowan Park, we was aware for traffic noise from previous reviews so thought we knew what to expect. It was even worse than we imagined. Unfortunately most pitches where traffic noise was a little less were taken. Having said that all pitches you will hear traffic because of the close proximity to busy roads. Lots of info given on check in. Facilities kept clean and site was looked after. Even told don’t mind wether you drive in or reverse in, just not sideways. (Of course not ) I explained our habitation door is European side so we always drive onto pitches for this reason. On our last day we had someone pitch up next to us and their habitation door faced ours. As they also drove onto pitch. Never had this before and won’t again had we not been leaving next day I would of said something. Not a nice feeling constantly feel eyes watching us. They left their door open a lot, which made me keep my blinds closed. I guess this is fine if your with friends but definitely not complete strangers. Also a little confused as to why cones and closed sign over pitch number on 3 pitches. The 4 nights we were there no one used them. Even on leaving site pitches on the left of exit all had cones.

Spoilt by the traffic noise.

A nice site in a terrible location. The wardens are really nice & the site spotless. There is non stop traffic noise including boy racers charging around in the early hours. People walking their dogs at 02:00 in the morning, talking and bottle crashing in the early hours. I guess they couldn’t sleep due to the noise. I wish I’d read the reviews before I booked. The site seems to have been swallowed by new roads & development. We have a pop-top camper. The noise was a nightmare. John

Excellent

This site is brilliant. The small but spacious site is close to shops. Across the road is The Food Warehouse, Halfords and Matalan while Sainsbury, Tesco,Costa, Pets @ Home and a pub is only a 10-15 min walk. Rick and Kay are really friendly and helpful. The road noise isn't bad on pitch 31 & 32, its a dull noise. Bathrooms are very clean and have good hot showers. For dog owners there is a the common next door that is popular with local dog walking and can get busy. This is definitely down as one of my fav sites thus far. I WILL be returning. Leah x

Traffic outside site unbearable

Have been to this site many times in the last 10 years, however this will be the last time due to the traffic noise outside the site & the massive increase in the volume of vehicles in the local area, there are numerous supermarkets & fast food outlets including a Warburton's bread factory now in the immediate vicinity which operates 24hrs a day. There are no pelican or zebra crossings for pedestrians the nearest which is 800yds away outside Sainsbury’s & to get to that you have to cross a very busy road which is now no longer safe for anyone especially children & cyclists. This is a great pity as the wardens really look after the site & it’s facilities but the traffic noise now is constant 24hrs a day. For some reason my review shows 5 stars this is not correct, I gave no stars for good for families & peace & quiet but for some reason the review gave 5 stars

Excellent run site

We stayed at this site for 3 nights 1-3rd of this month October…nicely situated for us for a family meeting up locally. We had a great pitch (1) near the excellent clean facilities, the site was well run and kept remarkably clean…. Just across the road from a retail park, which was very handy. And only 2 miles to Bognor by bus which you could get very near.. a big Sainsbury’s was nearby too. Thank you very much for a well kept pitch and site… nice also having safety barrier which made you feel more secure Thank you Sue Clarkson and Terry Wootten

Spotless campsite

Although Rowan Park is surrounded by retail parks, it is an oasis of calm next to a small nature reserve. The staff are lovely and keep the facilities scrupulously clean. Kay was really helpful when it came to planning cycle routes too. Our own pitch was quiet but we were aware that some were exposed to more traffic noise so silence can’t be guaranteed. The nearby roads are busy but there are footpaths and cycle paths so that it is easy to cycle to Chichester, the railway station and seafront with very little on road cycling. I would recommend the train to Arundel and we also took the train to Brighton and cycled back from there (worth checking the wind direction as it’s much easier with a back wind!) So, a nice site in its own right but also easy access to lots of other great places.

First Trip on a Club Site

This was our first trip as new motorhome owners to a club site. We had a lovely greeting from Kay at reception, who explained everything we needed to know. The site and grounds are lovely and very well maintained. We were impressed with the toilets and showers - they were immaculate and constantly cleaned. The wardens were very helpful and provided useful information for us newbies! We were aware that there was road noise before coming, but this didn’t impact on our enjoyment. However, if you want a tranquil site, this may not be for you.

Weekend break

The site is clean and tidy, the wardens were friendly and helpful. Within walking distance of several shops and takeaways. The picturedrome is a lovely cinema which is good value for money and worth a visit. Depending on where you are on the site will depend on how much road noise you get ,it is right next door to a busy main road but you could get that anywhere. There are lots of cycle paths which can take you into town and these are reasonably flat.

Great stay

We have stayed on this site 4 times this year. We like it. It is an ideal spot to go to attractions and seaside places. We also visit friends when we come here and they love visiting us on site. There is quite a lot of traffic noise because of the sites location but they warn you about it on the web site so can expect it. The facilities are always clean and to a high standard. Staff are always friendly and helpful. We will definitely be coming back. Thank you for a great break.
