Liked: The site was tucked right out of the way up a fun track. The field is massive, which meant choice for where to pitch. We were the only ones in the whole site for our stay which was just amazing considering where it is!! Owners leave you to it. Swing by in the morning to say hi. Really lovely people.

Liked: The site is a really nice location in a beautiful Sussex village, with rolling hills, nice walks through the woods and a lovely sunset in front of the fire pit. There was plenty of space and couldn’t see it hear other campers. Great wild camping site!
Disliked: Nothing

Liked: Great spot with lovely views over the valley. I like the fact that its a bit basic, no showers. Chilled and not too busy. Good value as well!
Disliked: The track leading to the site is very poorly maintained.

Liked: Utterly peaceful and relaxed site. Beautiful surroundings and views. Rachel is lovely and super informative pointing out the lovely walks from site. The surrounding woods are full of wildlife - loads of deer to see if you’re quiet. The badger faced sheep up on the South Downs Way are gorgeous. Loads of great walks in the area and very well signposted. Fire pits for hire and the best value wood - never got such an enormous bag of firewood!! The track to the site is extremely long and bumpy but that just adds to the charm and the remoteness. It’s really well signposted all the way from the main road which was much appreciated. I cannot wait to return to this wonderful tranquil site.

Liked: The location was brilliant for us, a huge camp field surrounded by woodland from 3 sides, a great sunset view. Remote tranquil location. Live fire is allowed, with fire pits available to rent from the owner (logs are also available). There was no mobile network coverage - which I think was a bonus :-)
Disliked: It would be good to have some wash-up facilities for the dishes.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Hi Marcin, Thank you so much for your lovely review. I am so pleased you enjoyed staying with us. It was such a pleasure having you and your lovely family to stay at the farm. Good news - I will be working over the winter to put a small washing up facility in place for next season. Hopefully see you again next year. Best always, Rachel :)
Stunning views from the field, We love this spot…
