Scallow Campsite

View prices & book Last booked one hour ago 9.6 27 reviews

Terrace with a firepit outside of the double pod

Pitch 4 and 5 with large grass area for tents

Pitch 4 which is large enough for a tent

Campsite shown through the adjacent ancient woodland

Glamping pods for two in the East Sussex countryside
A 35-minute drive from Eastbourne; 40 minutes from Brighton
Three pubs nearby; chiminea and barbecue for each pod

Rural views but with an extra dose of comfort? Make your way to the mighty-fine East Sussex countryside, where Scallow Campsite sits in a rural spot between East Hoathly and Waldron. The glamping pods here are really rather cosy and they each sleep two (either close friends or a couple). Each one is equipped with a gas burner, refrigerator, TV and wifi, so you’ll be well set for facilities and entertainment. Supplies are on hand at a farm shop 10 minutes' drive away and there are more shops in Uckfield or Heathfield, which are both 15 minutes’ drive away. Countryside rambles? Sorted – this is an excellent base for such things. For gentler days, there are historical houses and gardens within 25 minutes’ drive of the site. As for those wanting to visit the coast (for fish and chips, a dip or a day of games by the sea, perhaps), the lively scenes at Eastbourne (35 minutes) and Brighton (40 minutes) are also well within reach. Whenever you fancy yourself a pint or a glass of rosé, or perhaps a lush dinner, it's handy to know there’s a pub 20 minutes’ walk away from the pods and another two pubs five and 10 minutes' drive away respectively. For those times when you’re taking on the role of chef yourself (or just fancy keeping warm while you sip a glass of wine), the outside of each pod has a decking area with a chiminea and a barbecue. Other handy facilities include separate showers and toilets, together with an outdoors washing-up area served by hot water.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch (large)

Liked A little gem of a site with a nice rural location in what would appear a lovely little village. Facilities were great and very clean. We arrived late and the pitch was clearly marked for us ready use. I wished we had stayed a little longer, but it was a quick one night stay to attend a wedding the next day.

I would definitely recommend and would love to go back again.

Disliked Nothing.

From the manager: Thank you for your review it is very much appreciated. We are very proud of what we offer here at Scallows. We look forward to seeing you again soon we hope so that you can explore the area more.

A good site which could be better with a few minor tweaks

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch (large)

Liked Peace and quiet. Shower and toilet block was very clean and well fitted, once you found them

Disliked It would be nice to have a simple plan of the site, so that you didn't have to ask others where the toilets were.
Some information about things to do, rather than a blurred map would also be good

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review it is very much appreciated having your constructive feedback. We provide fibre wifi so that guests can access the internet easily to find out what is in the local area. We provide a map of the footpaths in the area so that guests are able to walk the local routes. The map is taken from the website footpaths.co.uk. The toilets and showers are located in the yard 50 meters from the campsite and are clearly marked on the doors.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Very clean and tidy site with immaculate toilet facilities. Almost home from home.

Disliked Pitches were hard standing and we were asked not to drive on grass. Impossible to site caravan without driving on grass.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: HI thank you for your review. The signs are really up for the winter as the ground gets so waterlogged being on clay. During the summer the driving on the grass is fine.

We hope to see you again soon

Thanks

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch (large)

Liked Facilities clean and tidy quiet site

Disliked No personal touch had find out everything for ourselves no info on where facilities or chemical toilet station were

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Heather, thank you for your review. I am very disappointed with your review. I have staff who come every morning to clean the facilities and make sure that everyone is happy with everything. We take great pride in our customer service. It was unfortunately that I was not around to see you. We are a five pitch site and staff are not around all the time. Our site phone is manned 24/7 and someone would get back to you if there was an issue and sorry that this was not obvious to you. All the details are in the noticeboard at the entrance to the site.

Just need something to dry hands in the toilets

Local attractions

Brighton (40 minutes’ drive) is a biggie for all those wanting to soak up some lively seaside scenes. Whether you go for a stroll down The Lanes, sink your teeth into the history of the Royal Pavilion, ride the British Airways i360 or head for Brighton beach and Brighton Pier, you’re bound to have an active day indeed. Hastings (50 minutes) has plenty of historical nautical-themed days out too. The town has a fishing and shipwreck museum, a Norman castle and cliff railways for views out over the big blue. If that has you begging for some more coastal views, head to Beachy Head (35 minutes), the highest chalk sea cliff in Britain. Want some rural air with your history? Pick from three National Trust sites. Bateman's (25 minutes) is a 17th-century house, Sheffield Park & Garden (25 minutes) is a landscape garden and historical house, and Standen House and Garden (35 minutes) is a historic house all about arts and crafts. Take your historic tour onto two wheels at Haywards Heath (35 minutes) too, which has Victorian and Edwardian houses and cycling routes.
