Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming and made sure I had everything I needed for a comfortable stay.
What really stood out was their commitment to sustainability—the campsite is beautifully eco-friendly, with recycling stations, and a strong emphasis on leaving minimal impact on the environment. It felt great to stay somewhere that aligns with my values.
Whether you’re a solo traveler, a couple, or a family, this campsite offers the perfect balance of tranquility, sustainability, and accessibility. I’ll definitely be back!

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked A wonderful, small campsite with large individual pitches mown into the long grass (massive for my tiny tent!). The pitches are in a row so don't feel at all crowded and instead the view from the pitch is across the field, up the hill, with a few sheep hanging around.
The owner was very friendly and around for a chat. Cars are parked in a small parking area, not at the pitches, which I prefer. It's only a 1 minute walk and wheel barrows are provided if needed. The location was perfect for me, in the downs but easy to get into Brighton.
Disliked The only downside was the noise from the A23, but that's inevitable given the location and not a big problem.

Spacious dog friendly campsite with beautiful views
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Spacious campsite with extensive views of South Downs and dog can be off-lead. Clean facilities provided with plush towels. Right by the Wolstonbury Hill walking path with scenic views. Each site has ample space with picnic table and chairs provided with an area for you to set campfire or bbq. Very friendly owner. We had a great time and so did our dog, we hope to return again.
