Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Heronsdale campsite is wonderful. Very organised and tidy. I had pre-ordered logs and a fire pit and they were waiting for us when we arrived. The location is stunning. We had a lovely walk to a nearby pub. We saw a barn owl both evenings we were there around dusk.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Nice setting amongst the trees. Composting toilets very well organized and clean.

Disliked: Drove some distance off my intended route enticed by reading previous reviews about how lovely and hot the showers were, only to find them stone cold. Very disappointed.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Rick, I'm sorry to hear that you had a cold shower. I always check the showers before campers arrive and on Friday they were in hot working order. I also checked after reading your review and they were working still although someone had moved one of the dials to feed more cold water and perhaps this is why it didn't give you hot water. There was a mobile number in the shower to call for such issues and I would have come to check and fix it if had known. Please do come again and I promise you'll get a hot shower!

Friendly, beautiful site, clean

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: A lovely keep-it-simple site in a very rural and scenic spot. Perfectly located for the National Trust properties we wanted to visit and many other things we didn’t have time for, this time around. Very efficiently managed, good hot showers and the compost toilets were absolutely fine. Washing up facilities were good, with plenty of hot water, but we would have appreciated some separately located washbasins for just washing hands, cleaning teeth and so-on. Some really nice touches like fresh eggs available with an honesty box, local walks posted up on walls etc. We saw deer in the early morning and listening to the bird song each morning and evening was a great pleasure. We had a great time and will definitely come again. Many thanks!

Liked: Lovely site, back to basics. Kids had a great time running around in the dell / playing in the trees. Compost toilets clean, nice clean washing up area and good basic showers. Nice to be able to hire a firepit. Will definitely be back soon.

Local attractions

This is some splendid countryside, so those of you in search of walks, bike rides, horse rides and other outdoor antics should find plenty of suitable spots nearby. The farm is just on the edge of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and the South Downs National Park is close by too. Also not far off is the south coast – a drive of a little over half an hour gets you to walks around the Seven Sisters cliffs, Cuckmere Haven and Beachy Head or days on the beach in Bexhill-on-Sea and Eastbourne. If you’re into poking around on fancy estates, pay a visit to Rudyard Kipling’s former home Bateman’s (20 minutes’ drive), the National Trust estate Sheffield Park (half an hour) or the gorgeous gardens of Wakehurst (40 minutes). If you’ve got kids to entertain, tastes may skew more towards days out at Knockhatch Adventure Park (20 minutes), animal encounters at Drusillas Park (20 minutes) or rides on the Bluebell Railway (half an hour).
