Clarefield Copse Wild Camping

Kedvelték: Great potential, beautiful setting, clearly lots of environmental work going on, lovely wildlife

Nem kedvelték: Further from the South Downs Way than suggested. Not very obvious what's what when you turn up. If we hadn't seen a tent in the distance we'd have been unsure we were in the right place. Chap came down and gave the loos once over as we were setting up but didn't pop over to chat or give us the lay of the land. Loos were rudimentary. I'm ok with that but of the 3 two had either a dodgy or broken lock. They were an odd setup so I ended up.leaving the door open for my morning ritual. Shower was also basic. Once again fine but the women I was with couldn't budge the gas bottle so without me it would have been cold showers all around. Please put some hooks up to hang things. A general sign explaining where the pitches are would be so useful. Maybe a couple of tonnes of scalpings and a whacker plate on that hardcore drive down into the camping field would help vehicles. I think early days for this site. It could be brilliant. So much potential for lovers of wildlife and peace and quiet. Transfers to and from South Downs Way could be lucrative and would help bring folk in especially as it's equidistant between 2 other obvious sites on the SDW and there are no other camping opportunities

Kedvelték: Lots of space on the pitches and very peaceful setting! Lots of wildlife to see. Can understand it may get a bit soggy after heavy rain but was good for us after a short sun spell. Simple amenities which was perfect.

Nem kedvelték: None really.

Kedvelték: Beautiful setting, large pitches with a degree of seclusion. Fire pits and firewood (big bags) available for purchase.

Nem kedvelték: Not a dislike for us but some might find the facilities a bit too basic.

Kedvelték: Loved the beautiful site with views to South Downs, very peaceful, lots of great walks. It’s basic and back to the nature, toilets could do with a little improvement, however this did not spoil our stay. Liked that owner came by in the evening to check everybody was happy, loved the wood for open fire at night. We were very lucky with the weather but i can imagine it would be difficult for some cars if middle field is water logged. We would definetely like to return.

Kedvelték: Was fine, decent spot to pitch up a tent. I wouldn’t say there’s loads to it but I had a nice time. They have fire pits which is a nice touch and the bloke who runs the camp called Angus comes round to check in and potentially sell you some fire wood if you don’t have any. Very simplistic place, but very enjoyable.

Kedvelték: Simple campsite. Big, open spaces, easy to find a pitch and have a bit of privacy. Relaxed, friendly staff who came over to sell some firewood (exactly what we needed!) and had some useful tips on places to visit/hike. Water taps around the site, not just by the toilets - great. Shower was basic but the water was lovely and warm - what more could you ask for!

Nem kedvelték: Cleanliness of toilet (only 1 out of 3) not maintained for the first day. This is mostly the camper who left it in such a state's fault, but the toilet was left like this for quite some time before it was cleaned.

Kedvelték: Myself and my 13 year son stayed over 2 nights, the 2nd night with friends (another father and son duo). We loved it! Great views, quiet, peaceful, lots of space, just exactly what we wanted. Owls hooting at night, and beautiful birdsong at dawn. We went on a huge walk on Saturday around Rogate and saw pheasants, cattle, horses, lambs and the biggest hare ever (plus another family of 5 hare in another field. Definitely going back this summer.

Nem kedvelték: Ummmmm….that we couldn’t stay another night…?

Kedvelték: The space for kids to play, the openness to choose your favourite pitch, even on a bank holiday there was plenty of room to accommodate all campers and you still felt you were alone. The fact they send a campsite warden to check on you (Jordan) to make sure you’re settled in and to ensure you have everything you need. He was knowledgeable on surrounding areas and what activities were available to us including good walks. Showers, toilets and washing facilities were available and were excellent. A very well run campsite where you have plenty of peace and quiet, great views and your left alone.

Nem kedvelték: I didn’t dislike anything
