Non-electric forest floor tent pitch (woodland)

Liked: We love this campsite it’s back to basics but with hot showers and some flushing toilets. We stayed on one of the woodland pitches they each have a fire pit and a shelter that you can use for storage and cooking. Owners friendly and helpful. Each evening they come round with logs,kindle and firefighters to buy and also bags of ice. Pitches are a good size and reasonably private.

Bell tent (woodland)

Liked: We stayed in the Woodlands Bell tent. The tent was on a deck off the mud, it was very clean inside. We felt private with no one watching. The best was being able to cook over an open fire pit. The children were free to play, there was lots of space for biking, it was an adventure getaway for them.

Local attractions

One of the cutest and furriest of the locals, Winnie the Pooh, was dreamed up on walks around Ashdown Forest (40 minutes' drive): visit the inspiration for the Hundred Acre Wood, the Heffalump Trap and Eeyore’s Quiet And Gloomy Place amid walking trails and wildlife. If you need an extra fix of the furries, call in at the llama park enroute. If you’re more into castles and stately homes, you can more or less pick with a pin: flower fans and garden gurus may prefer Scotney and Sissinghurst (15 and 25 minutes away) for their elaborate horticultural arrangements; if you're mad about moats and turrets and blood-soaked history, make the half-hour trip to Hever and Leeds castles. For a gentler kind of heritage day, the steam engines of the Spa Valley Railway chuff their way sedately through the High Weald countryside between Tunbridge Wells and Eridge (10 and 20 minutes), and within an hour you can be tucking into fish and chips while you build your sandcastles down at Camber Sands.
