Liked: This campsite is absolutely charming, small with minimal facilities but everything was working, clean and easy to use. The staff were friendly and the location was great for exploring Rye and Camber. We are looking forward to visiting again next year.

Liked: Great location, can walk to rye in about an hour, followed the map provided by the site, beautiful walk through the countryside. Bus stop just outside the side, bus timetable displayed on notice board on site. We travelled back from rye on the bus. Pub about 5 minutes up the road, serves lovely food. We had the Sunday roast which was delicious. Very peaceful site. We didn't need to use the facilities as we have our own, but looked clean. We will definitely be returning

Liked: This was a fantastic site, it is like they have thought about the worst parts of camping and make sure they have them right. Toilets are clean and tidy, washing up areas always tidy with sprays, washing up liquid, squeegee to clear excess water. A freezer and microwave for all to use aswell as lock box for mobile phone charge free of use. This is a really well thought out campsite, with home made maps for local walks to Rye through fields, directions to the local pubs and surrounding areas. Highly recommend for the price

Liked: Welcoming and friendly owners. Given comprehensive written information on arrival of facilities. Everything you need clean showers and toilets, washing up area, microwave, freezer. Quite small and that suits us, great location and we booked EHU. Not extra for electric and dogs just £2!
Disliked: Some road noise, can’t be helped as great location for exploring.

Bell tent
Liked: The bell tent was equipped with everything you needed for the stay. The campsite itself was in an ideal location, very easy to find and had very clear instructions on and around the site. Plenty of showers and toilets. Would highly recommend!
Disliked: The close proximity of the pitches and that there were only two power sockets for charging phones etc. No surprise they always seemed to be in use.
