Concierge Camping, is it over-rated? An honest review!

In this video we travel 219 miles to spend 3 nights at Concierge Camping near Chichester. We've watched many video's and read all of the reviews on this place and we wondered 'is it all it's cracked up to be or just clever marketing'?
Please watch this one to the end, we show you everything and we tell it as we see it.
Thanks for watching,
Cheers, Helen & Dave

    We’re just back from our second visit. We were about three pitches back from you. Our pitch was quite wide as our van is 8ft and we had the same canopy on and we had lots of space. However last time we stayed on pitch number 1 and our canopy was up to the pitch edge. It’s great for a once of year treat. The bar area has a lovely ambience and the Japanese street food is lovely. I wear earplugs to sleep so I don’t hear the news.

    It certainly does look fantastic but, you definitely need to get across to France for starters. You will find equally fantastic sites for at least a third of the price you paid here. We paid 27 Euros per night on a site in Brittany in June 22, which included our own private washroom with shower and toilet which wouldn’t have been out of place in a top quality hotel. Towing in France is a piece of cake too, as drivers tend to be more disciplined and less aggressive than here in the UK. Think about it 😊

    Hello Dave and Helen. The swift caravan you are looking at is very similar to our 2022 Coachman VIP 575 in layout. The fridge opening on 2 sides is just a gimmick! Not really of any use! The other major consideration is the fridge external vents. If like us you like the caravan door left open in good weather the door opens onto the external fridge vent causing the fridge not to cool properly. If fact we had to throw food away last summer, due to the fridge being too warm! Also check out if you have a bedside knicker drawer!! On the thin wardrobe side our coachman does not! Not the end of the world but inconvenient!😂Our advice is... If it isn’t broken don’t fix it! Yes you would have a shiny new van.. but not necessarily a better time away! Keep up the good work! We both enjoy your videos! Janet Hogg

    Immaculate site but a tad gimmicky and must be one of the most expensive sites in the country. However the sites we know of but have yet to stay on eg: trethem mill, carnon downs( now m and c club site) , carnyvick, tregarton park, trevalgan, gwinear and Padstow holiday village and 5 star sites at less than half the price. And the ones we have visited ie: polmanter, Lincoln farm park, Ross park and our favourite ' Dornafield in South Devon are brilliantly immaculate sites for less than £45 a night in peak season. Our local site lakeside park in Lincolnshire is now £75 for Bank holidays per night so we no longer visit.

TBH though, it’s not the sort of campsite we would visit regularly, as you point out, there are some great value top notch sites and we have found many of the CL’s and private sites offer great value and lots of unique, personal touches.

    Well Dave and Helen we’ve never seen anything quite like it. It’s really very nice and very posh with lots of thoughtful touches. They really have thought of everything apart from hardstanding pitch width, but the privacy hedges and total pitch width is excellent. Safari tent pitches perhaps not for us but agree with you about being handy for families. You certainly get what you pay for here and the facility block is like a ⭐classy hotel ⭐. The cassette cleaning machine is spot on and I would like to try one. Would like to try the Japanese food too, being a fan. Bella seemed to enjoy her shower, she takes it all in her stride and never batted an eye lid bless her. We enjoyed the tour very much and would like to try this site one day. Very best regards, Rob & Gail

    Hello again Rob & Gail, we were very pleased with our stay and the Concierge team were excellent. Not something we would do regularly but would certainly go again for a treat. Bella is so easy going and a quiet little dog. We have to check she’s still there on a regular basis, you can find her wherever Helen is 😊. Have a great weekend both. Take care, Helen & Dave

    We visited this site Christmas 2017 and paid£55 per night. One very important thing we found. You have to remember that no matter how good the site is, no matter how well the site is cared for there is no accounting for who you are sharing the facilities with! We found poo on the toilet seat most days! This was absolutely no reflection on the owner’s. They can’t run in every time someone has used. You would hope that spending £55 a night would give you a better experience but don’t be fooled! I now carry Dettol wipes in my toiletries.. as you never know when you will need them!

    Have used a couple of sites in that area that suited us better as Concierge is not for us, regardless of price, undoubtedly it could be justified for a special occasion. Having said that, we have used the Goodwood campsite a few times for the Festival of Speed and it is more costly TBH, but then probably to be expected. I guess you did not get to the Tangmere museum, well worth a visit and as you say Portsmouth is nearby with some great attractions. Maybe one day we will be tempted, I know someone who has a taste for Champers……

    If you think this site is nice you need to go to the old Oakes at Glastonbury. It’s the best site I’ve been on in 32 years of caravanning followed by eye kettleby lakes near melton Mowbray. You get what you pay for I don’t mind paying those prices as CL sites don’t interest me. But each to their own. Looks a lovely site though and I must try it. Good video. People moan about prices but you have a choice and motohome owners amaze me they pay £60k plus then moan about paying £20/£30 plus a night so they wild camp. But again each to their own

    Hi there, wish I had found Old Oakes at Glastonbury before we headed to Bath Chew which wasn't a great experience for us. I completely agree with your views around pricing though, in the great scheme of things it's not a lot to pay, even for the best sites and I've always said exactly the same as you about Motorhomes. They do offer more flexibility as to where they can pitch but paying all that money to then pitch off grid in a school playground seems odd! Thanks for watching. ATB Dave & Helen

    On your walk you found that little hut with nothing in it. You can use it to go in quietly with your visa receipt and hit yourself repeatedly over the head with a car jack and repeat, “l must not have these periods where I pay this much money per night and then have to have therapy for months afterwards because I have lost the plot”. Yo need to get to Melton Mowbray to find the perfect site.

    Concierge Camping is hugely overrated in my opinion, owing to it being noisy as a motorways service station from the A-road - from 5-a.m until past midnight (audible in your video as always), also feels like a dangerous lack of railings at the showers, which weren't especially clean at any time during our week's visit (dirty mop etc. left inside/cleaner needs re-training), and just absolutely absurdly ambishous prices. Good touring base, but I've seen luxury done far better at 35% less - and without the constant noise.
