Electric grass tent or campervan pitch (XL)
Liked Francis and Pam were very welcoming and kept us supplied with logs for the fire. Fantastic site, just what we needed., small, quiet, set in beautiful woodland. Clean toilets, hot showers and large pitches. We had a very relaxing time and would definitely come back.
Disliked Noisy tree cutting on two nights till midnight - but nothing to do with the campsite.
Fishing lake could be better maintained and not sure how stocked it was. Our son only caught twigs, his line got snagged twice and he lost two lures.

Liked Peaceful Getaway in Nature – Just What We Needed
We stayed at this lovely camping site from the 1st to the 3rd of August and honestly… what a gem. We went there looking for some quiet, yoga, and meditation — and we found exactly that.
Francis, one of the owners, was incredibly friendly and approachable. He came around every evening to help us get our fire pit going, which became one of our favorite parts of the day. His wife Pam was just as helpful — she kindly provided us with an extension cable when we needed it. It’s those thoughtful little touches that made the experience feel really welcoming.
We didn’t explore too far (there’s a beautiful woodland walk nearby if you’re feeling adventurous), but most of our time was spent relaxing by our tent — chatting, stretching out with a few yoga poses, and just soaking up the stillness.
The bathroom and toilet facilities? Honestly, not bad at all for the price — clean, functional, and better than we expected for a camping site.
Would we go back? Absolutely. It was the perfect escape to reset and unwind. Highly recommend for anyone looking to disconnect and reconnect with nature.

Liked Beautiful, peaceful campsite surrounded by accessible woodland. Large pitch and lots of space for the kids to play and explore. The owners were really friendly and helpful, the facilities were clean and looked after. Firewood was offered every day. Great central location for exploring the East Sussex coast and local area. We will be back. Ideal for families, couples and individuals. A great place to unwind and relax.
