The on-site catering wagon serving fresh pizzas, alcohol, hot drinks and breakfast!

Eco-conscious green field site in the South Downs National Park
Eastbourne 15 minutes’ drive; Pevensey 20 minutes; Brighton 45 minutes
Showers, toilets and food truck on site; pubs a short drive away

At the eastern edge of the South Downs National Park, with cracking views over its green vistas and just a 10-minute drive from the famed Seven Sisters walk, Bramley Park Camping is an East Sussex site in tune with its natural surroundings. The owners are seasoned campers, bringing back the best ideas from their travels to create a place where nature can be enjoyed with as little impact as possible. Along with a respect for nature comes an easy-going vibe and a warm welcome for all guests, including your four-legged family members. You can choose where to pitch and park your car alongside. Solar lights keep light pollution to a minimum, and guests are asked to keep noise low late at night – a bonus for others on site as well as the wildlife that’s made its home in the surrounding protected woodland. Every weekend (plus on weekdays during peak season only), the on-site food station serves fresh pizzas, breakfast and coffee. If you're still peckish, the on-site shop stocks camping essentials, drinks, ice creams and bags of ice. Within about 20 minutes’ drive there are enough great beaches to fill a whole holiday: Eastbourne and Bexhill have a traditional seaside resort feel, or you could go for a more out-of-the-way day out at Pevensey Bay, Birling Gap or Cuckmere Haven. The bright lights of Brighton are a 45-minute drive away. Other outdoor adventures await close by with the South Downs Way National Trail linking up with footpaths about two miles from the site. Five miles away, Friston Forest has a family-friendly cycle route and a more challenging trail for mountain bikers. Facilities on site include showers and toilets (including disabled facilities), a washing-up area and recycling. You can hire firepits and portable chargers and buy logs. There are cafés, takeaways, pubs and food shops within about 25 minutes’ walk or a few minutes’ drive.

What customers say

Stickers reckon the staff are ripper, pitches are spacious and flat, and pizza's a dead handy feed. Toilets and showers are mostly clean, but a bit basic. It's a cruisy spot for checking out the South Downs, though it can get a bit rowdy on busy weekends. Some punters reckon the showers could be hotter.

Liked Was a lovely site, lovely food in the evenings and morning. Good price.

Disliked Some quite loud people one evening that ruined it abit for us, but that's not their fault. Toilets were quite messy due to the people that were being loud on site.

Unpowered grass and earth campervan, tent or trailer tent site (wild)

Liked You can use as much space as you like for your tent/car.

Disliked No email about bbq restrictions for this weekend, pizza van-1.5h waiting time, a few showers for big camping site!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi there, thank you for your feedback.

We did email guests about the temporary BBQ restrictions, and the information was also shared on our social media and displayed on our website at the time of booking. We’re sorry you must have missed these notices.

The pizza staff work incredibly hard and customers are advised at check-in to order early to avoid waiting times later on. The unusually long wait time was due to the increased demand for pizza because of the BBQ restrictions temporarily in place.

Liked A nice kept camp, great food van and very easy. Location is great for the beach too

Disliked Sadly the shower facilities weren't clean. There was rubbish all over the floor, a pack of sweets thrown all across the cubicle. It stunk of urine. Other than that, a great place

Liked Excellent site, well located and quiet even though it gets particularly busy at weekends. Amenities clean, well kept and the food on site service is good and reasonably priced.

Disliked Nothing to dislike, excellent site but it’s popularity and success can make it very busy at weekends

Unpowered grass and earth campervan, tent or trailer tent site (wild)

Liked We really liked the food at the Smokin Crust, we had the pizzas and a breakfast.
Staff were friendly.
Pitching up where you like, worked well for us as we were with friends.
Nice views.

Disliked We like it all but if there were a few more showers avaliable and shelves for washbags in the toilets sink area. But that's us being picky.
A small playpark would be good, but there was space on our visit to play ball games by the tent.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review! We're so pleased you enjoyed the pizzas and breakfast from Smokin Crust, and that our team helped make your stay an enjoyable one.

It's great to hear our relaxed pitch-anywhere approach worked well for your group and that you enjoyed the countryside views.

We also appreciate your suggestions about additional showers, washbag shelves and a play area. Feedback like this is invaluable as we continue improving Bramley Park Camping.

We hope to welcome you back again soon!

Local attractions

If you’re walking along the South Downs Way, about three and a half miles from site look out for the Long Man of Wilmington, a 235ft-high figure etched on the side of the chalk hill. Head to Pevensey Castle and Pevensey Bay to see a very famous spot from British history. This beach is said to be where William the Conqueror came ashore in 1066 before the Battle of Hastings. The site of the battle itself is half an hour’s drive away from site, six miles outside Hastings and handily enough called Battle so you can’t miss it. If entertaining the kids is on the agenda, Knockhatch Adventure Park (15 minutes’ drive) and Drusillas Park (20 minutes) – both with rides, zoo and playgrounds – should be just the ticket.
