Liked: Lovely location, friendly helpful owner, very laid back and unfussed site. Gently sloping field with some flatter spots and no set pitches, just choose where you wish to pitch up. Newly built toilet and shower building, better than being at home!! Fire pits brought down by the owner on one of his vintage tractors. Good pubs nearby with 3 to choose from and a great Sunday lunch in the White Dog.
Disliked: Nothing at all.

Liked: We used this campsite as a base for visiting family nearby. The location is lovely with lots of space around. Very relaxing vibe and amazing clear skies overnight. The shower and toilets whilst unisex are by far the best i have ever seen on a campsite. Lovely hot water fantastic shower, feels like you are using somebodies home bathroom!! Friendly owners who leave you to it. Met some nice people with dogs who played with ours.
Disliked: nothing really it suited us well for the few days we stayed

Liked: Toilet/shower block was immaculate and new. So much space! Welcomed on arrival by owner with site information and access codes. Footpath access straight from farm great. Two pubs in walking distance but only managed to try out the one in Bodiam; excellent food.
Disliked: Minor complaint, flattest part of site is next to road but the road was fairly quiet. But the space available out weighted the minimal noise.

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch
Liked: Great place for a quiet stay. Big 12 acre field limited to 15 plots. Although most of the field is a big slope so everyone sets up at the bottom of the field but even then everyone is well spaced out. We had no noise from other campers. The toilets and shower are brand new and worthy of a nice hotel. The block was at the top of the field. This did leave quite a long walk for the 2 year olds little legs.
Disliked: The only thing missing is a washing up station. But it looks like it might get added as there is space next to the shower and toilets.
