  • Simple adults-only site on the edge of the South Downs National Park
  • Devil's Dyke and Ditchling Beacon 10 minutes' drive; Brighton 20 mins
  • Dog-friendly pitches with direct access to local footpaths
You’ll have a view of Wolstonbury Hill from Muddleswood Meadow – and that’s a sure hint that you’re in a good spot for a break in the South Downs National Park. An excellent spot, in fact – because as well as being close to lots of great walking and bike trails, this adults-only site on the edge of the national park has easy access from the A23 and is only about five minutes’ drive from the village of Hurstpierpoint, a historic place that gets a mention in the Doomsday Book and has some lovely shops and pubs to visit. A golf course, a vineyard, an outdoor activity centre and several attractive rural pubs are also within a few minutes’ drive. The vibe here is simple, authentic and comfortable – it’s a place to relax and unwind in an uncrowded and peaceful environment. Facilities have been kept to just the essentials: portable toilets, a hot shower, a washing-up area and a chemical disposal point along with firepits for hire to help you create that classic campfire evening. You’re also welcome to bring a barbecue along for some outdoor cooking. Although kids are not permitted at this site, dogs are very welcome – you’ll just be asked to keep pets under control for the sake of the other guests and the local wildlife. Whether you’ve brought a four-legged pal or not, it’s easy to get out for a walk from here. A public footpath runs directly past the site, connecting you to miles of fabulous walks through the surrounding fields.

What customers say

Guests consistently praise the exceptionally friendly and welcoming hosts, noting the spaciousness of the site and its proximity to Brighton and the South Downs. Facilities are described as clean and adequate, with particular mention of excellent showers and toilets. Campfires with logs are a popular extra. While the campsite is peaceful, one guest noted a busy road makes walking to the local pub less ideal.
