Campsites with fishing in Chichester Harbour AONB

·

Chichester Harbour AONB lines up over 500 camping spots for anglers who want to cast a line with a view. This stretch of Sussex coast isn’t just tidal creeks and saltmarsh—expect reedbeds, shingle spits, and slow mornings waiting for a bite. Plenty of campsites welcome pets, let you build a campfire, and have toilets sorted. Hikers and birdwatchers won’t be bored, either; footpaths snake along the water, and you’ll spot everything from egrets to hares. The average pitch goes for around £100 a night, but you’ll find options dipping as low as £12. Locals rate Hook Farm Campsite (105 reviews), Woodlands Camping (59 reviews), and Lagnersh camping (59 reviews) for easy access to the water and solid facilities. Bring your rods, pack your wellies, and don’t forget to bag up your rubbish on the way out.

Searching for a peaceful holiday/short break without kids underfoot? Ramble along to Hastingford Fishery, an adults-only shepherd's hut and fishing site set in a scenic lakeside setting less than five minutes’ drive from the East Sussex village of Hadlow Down and 20 minutes from Royal Tunbridge Wells. This site should suit couples or singles wanting to 'get away from it all' and also fishing fans down to the ground. It’s got several fishing lakes to choose from with lots of different species, so settle down on the banks with rod in hand and while away a few hours (or days) in quiet contemplation, waiting for something to bite. But please note, the site is not for 'competition anglers' although there are plenty of good sized carp around. and asks anyone fishing to only use barbless hooks, and for fish to be returned to the lake quickly after being caught.Not the fishing type? Chill out in and around your secluded hut, or there’s plenty to entertain in a leisurely fashion: paths wind around the lakes and through copses/shaws (as this is the High Weald) plus through the local countryside. There are spectacular views towards the South Downs National Park from the top lakes. A spring-fed lake is also on site to cool off in with some wild swimming. Lots of bird life around, with feeders outside each hut and waterfowl visitors to the lakes.When it comes to eats, pick up or have supplies delivered from supermarkets or takeaways in Uckfield, Heathfield or Crowborough or take a drive to Buxted Park for some posh food or pubs in Blackboys, Crowborough, Ringles Cross, 5 Ash Down, Rotherfield, or Buxted (it'll take about 10 minutes to drive to any of these). Lots of sample menus in huts.
