Church Farm Holiday Village sits in sunny Sussex, just minutes from Bognor Regis. This AA 5 Gold Star park offers a peaceful escape beside Pagham lagoon, where herons stalk the shallows and a gentle walk along the water is the perfect way to start the day.
The kids will make straight for the indoor pool and its water flume, then it's out to the pool terrace on sunnier days to dry off in the sun. Between swims there's archery coaching and bungee trampolines to try and a round of crazy golf that somehow always ends up closer than anyone expected!
The park welcomes dogs and it's a short stroll down to the shingle beach. Mash and Barrel restaurant covers you from breakfast through to dinner, while Cook's Fish & Chips delivers proper seaside flavours you'll want every night of the holiday. Evenings belong to the Live Lounge, with entertainment for all ages and the flat park terrain means getting about with pushchairs or wheelchairs is never a bother.
Rainy day? Head for the indoor pool, where the kids beeline straight for the water flume. On brighter mornings you'll all pile out to the outdoor pool instead, with its wide sun terrace for stretching out between dips.
Archery coaching puts the whole family on target, with instructors on hand to sort out technique. Think Robin Hood, but with proper safety kit! The bungee trampoline sends the kids bouncing higher than they'd ever manage on their own, safely held by bungee cords and junior Segways let them get to grips with balance and steering.
The NERF Training Camp is exclusive to Church Farm and mixes paintball-style thrills with the speed of basketball for an action-packed session. Will your team come out on top?
Over at the Football Dartboard, test your aim on a giant target - it's suitable for anyone over six and makes for a proper family contest. Then there's the zip swing, which delivers exactly the flying feeling kids love.
Little ones can join Activitots, where throwing and catching games introduce them to sport, while Activikids gets older children stuck into team activities led by trained staff. Between sessions, the outdoor play area with its climbing frames and swings is there for burning off any leftover energy.
Some activities are subject to a moderate extra charge
Mash and Barrel is Church Farm's signature restaurant, a family-friendly spot that opens with breakfast and carries you right through to dinner. Lunch and dinner menus have plenty of choice and there are snacks and drinks on hand whenever you need to refuel.
Nothing beats proper fish and chips on a seaside holiday and Cook's Fish & Chips delivers exactly that - golden batter, chunky chips, done just how they should be.
At Terrace Pizza, stone-baked pizzas come fresh to order. Grab a slice on the go, or take a whole pizza back to your holiday home for a relaxed evening in - the crispy bases and good toppings make it a family favourite.
For self-catering, the Mini Market has you covered with everyday essentials and ingredients for meals back at the accommodation. There are hot snacks too for when hunger strikes between activities, plus last-minute souvenirs to take home from your Sussex break.
In the evenings, settle in together at the Live Lounge with a drink while the Seaside Squad take to the stage. The cashless amusement arcade sits nearby, ready for a family go on the machines whenever you fancy a change of pace.
Activitots is brand new for 2023, built specially for Haven parks and designed for toddlers aged 2 to 4. The sessions focus on ball games and balance, keeping exercise fun rather than formal. For 5 to 10 year olds, new sport-focused sessions run come rain or shine, led by instructors who keep things moving whatever the weather.
Church Farm has a few activities you won't find everywhere. At Magical Makers, kids learn tricks to try out on you later - be ready to look suitably amazed. There's also survival bracelet making, where budding adventurers pick up handy knots while crafting something to wear home. Both are firm favourites with everyone who tries them.
Younger children in particular love the Seaside Squad, one of Haven's best-loved entertainment acts. The mascots bring a freshly revised show full of catchy tunes and silly dances that has the whole family laughing along.
Church Farm Holiday Village has caravans and lodges to suit different family sizes and budgets. Caravan breaks start from just four nights, so a weekend getaway is easily done and lodge holidays begin at four nights too if you fancy extra space and a few premium touches.
Bronze caravans give you everything you need for a comfortable, relaxed stay. Silver grade caravans step things up with nicer furnishings and a few extra touches and the Harbour View area offers some particularly pleasant spots within the park.
For special occasions or larger groups, the lodges bring a proper touch of luxury. More space means more room to spread out after busy days exploring and the premium finishes make the whole place feel like a home from home.
Accommodation sits alongside the beautiful Pagham lagoon. Lagoon Close and Church Meadow are on flat ground and suit guests who need accessible accommodation, with Blue Badge parking spaces close to the main complex for easy access.
Every holiday home comes with a full kitchen for self-catering, so you can knock up breakfast before heading to the pools, or cook dinner after a day on Bognor Regis beach. The on-site Mini Market stocks ingredients and everyday essentials to save you a trip.
Dogs are welcome too. The flat park terrain makes walks easy and the nearby beach allows dogs as well, so do check availability when booking to secure a pet-friendly holiday home for your dates.
Bognor Regis sits just down the road from Church Farm. This traditional seaside town holds the official title of sunniest place in England! The beaches offer proper British seaside fun with sand and sea just a short drive away. A bus stops right outside the park for car-free travel into town.
