The park borders a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) designated for its diverse bird populations and saltmarsh habitats.
Pagham Harbour, adjacent to the site, was once a thriving medieval port before the entrance silted up, leading to the creation of the current nature reserve.
The local coastline features a unique shingle spit that shifts shape significantly due to longshore drift.
The holiday village is situated near the historic Church of St Thomas a Becket in the village of Pagham, which dates back to the 12th century.
Haven Church Farm Holiday Village is a coastal holiday park located directly on the edge of the Pagham Harbour Local Nature Reserve in West Sussex. The site features a mix of static caravans and touring pitches surrounded by landscaped grounds and direct access to the beach. On-site facilities include an indoor and outdoor swimming pool complex, a multi-sports court, and a nine-hole golf course. The village is situated on a peninsula, providing expansive views across the English Channel and the adjacent mudflats and salt marshes. The park operates as a destination resort for families, providing a range of entertainment venues and dining options within its boundaries. It serves as a base for birdwatchers and walkers due to its proximity to the protected habitats of Pagham Harbour.
