Goodwood FoS Camping...

[Megaflow]

So, the other half wants to go to FoS again this year, I tried 4 weeks before Christmas to find a hotel for Friday night, nada... Couldn't find anything within 40 miles that would accept a one night booking, they all wanted a full weekend.

Bu##er.

Mrs Megaflow just had a genius idea of camping, win, it's only one night and it's right on the door step. They only do a weekend camping ticket, never mind.

So, how much do you think a weekend, non electrified campint pitch is at FoS?

Nope, you are quite wrong.




Ready?




Are you sitting down?




£155...

Me and a couple mates paid £200 with a power hook up, our first time there so went with the official site, not bad between 3 of us for 4 nights I spose!

Crazy, stupid prices but as people will pay it, it is market price.

Since you looked at hotels a little distance away - what about campsites a few miles away?

We're going the Saturday but don't need to worry about accomodation - live less than 25 miles away!

you could try the ship and anchor at ford pub with campsite about 8-9 miles from goodwood and walking distance from train station that will get you to chichester in 10 minutes and bus from there if you dont want to drive

A BUS! TO THE FOS!

Isn't that like turning up to your local Green Peace hemp party in a full fat Rangie.

I know of a B+B that has a spare room at the moment! only 5.4 miles from Goodwood :-)

Try the Carlton Hotel on the seafront at Bognor. Recently refurbished and reasonable.

[F1JHerbert]

Well, I am staying in a house in Chichester...... MY HOUSE..... No hotel, No B&B and no camping charges....... Plus, I will cycling up there for it. So no fuel prices.....

I've just booked tickets for me and my son for Thurs/Friday so looking for a nearby campsite. Any recommendations?

I've not been for years and never camped, so I don't know what it's like these days but would prefer something on the quiter side if possible as I've got Flat6 junior with me..

I camped here last year and have booked in from Weds night through to Sunday night. Fairly quiet and relaxed, reasonable facilities, not a bad price.

As time was getting on and I didn't want to miss out I booked one earlier - turns out it was the same one as you've just recommended! Thanks anyway, good to know..

[Dover Nige]

Great stuff. Hope it's ok for you. Someone recommended it to me on PH last year and I thought it was ok.

Come on over and say hi, I'll be the bloke with the miniature caravan and Citroen C4 or if I can't get the French electrics to work on the towbar, it'll be a silver grey Z4MC and a pop-up tent!
