Excellent!
Bathing Machine Hut shepherd's hut
Liked Our stay in the Bathing Machine Hut was fantastic!
We had a warm welcome from Andrew, a tour of the site along with some interesting historical facts.
To our delight there were some fresh flowers and freshly baked cakes awaiting us in the hut which were delicious and a really lovely touch.
The resident donkeys Nancy and Dudley were a joy and our children loved visiting them daily.
The facilities with the kitchen hut and shower room were well equipped.

Shepherd's hut
Liked My daughter and I loved our stay here. It was a great spot for exploring the area, and had everything we needed for our stay.
Our host was super helpful and ready to help with anything we needed which really set this apart from other places we have stayed.
The bed was super comfy
Disliked I struggled to get the camping stove to work to make a pot of coffee in the mornings, but that’s probably just me!
I wondered if you could have a regular kettle in the camping kitchen?

Children were happy playing and whole enviroment was very welcoming.
Shepherd's hut
Liked We had play area just by our hut so children could just have good fun swinging.
The hut, shower, toilet and kitchen were clean and well taken care of, and this is very important for me.
The mattress was comfortable.
The owner took care of details so actually if I had had only clothes and food that would do also.
Disliked It took me some time to learm how to easy flush toilets but got there finally.

From the manager: Hi Magdalena
I have bought and installed a new pump so it works easily and perfectly now.
Thanks for bringing it to my attention and sorry it fell short of perfect.
Kind regards
Andrew

Woodkeeper's shepherd's hut
Liked Our stay was beyond our expectations. The owner welcomed us, explained everything and we had yummy cakes waiting for us in the hut. Our hut was very welcoming, nicely decorated, big enough for 4, warm at night, well equipped, only bring your clothes, your food, your charcoal. Everything else was provided. The toilet, shower and kitchen were also great and well equipped. And the pizza wood oven was simply fantastic. We had two nice walks, one to the hills in front and one to the windmill. The kids’ games were also excellent.

Shepherd's hut
Liked We had a great time at Waydown. Andrew was really helpful giving information about how to reach the camp site walking.
Everything was ready, the electric heater was on, we had milk, sugar, coffee and lovely cake in our hut.
Well maintained and clean site, kitchen well equipped. Very comfortable bed.
The location is very convenient, 2 minutes walk to South Downs national park, with lots of trekking options.

Liked The owner is very friendly, explained how everything worked.
Loads of hot water and everything else that was needed, pretty Shepherd's hut, Christmas cake and mince pies were also very tasty and a welcome treat after a very windy walk along the South Downs.
Disliked It is close to a busy road, but you quickly get used to it
