  • Peaceful family-run park on manor estate with fishing and horse riding
  • Cuckoo Trail walking and cycling two minutes' drive away
  • Additional toilet block with disabled room and underfloor heating
What a handsome site – and what a handy location. Have yourself a holiday at Horam Manor Country Park in East Sussex for a peaceful and roomy setting as well as proximity to walking and biking paths, fishing, horse riding, tennis and golf – and quite a bit more on and off site. A family-run and friendly park on a manor estate, Horam Manor is only a couple of minutes by car from the Cuckoo Trail, the scenic 14-mile path trail along the old Cuckoo Line railway track from Heathfield to Eastbourne Park. Previous guests have esteemed this site most highly for the friendly and helpful approach of its family team, its modern and immaculately kept amenities, and its range of activities and leisure facilities for guests young and old. Fishing, woodland walks, nature trails and horse riding are available around the estate; and play areas are on site and in the adjacent village. The friendly welcome extends to family friends too, with a dog walking area close by and a dog shower and dog water bowls thoughtfully added around the grounds. As you might expect, the amenities are also excellently thought out: there are two toilet blocks (one of which has underfloor heating), spacious showers, private wash cubicles and a fully equipped disabled room. A laundry room with a washing machine and a tumble dryer, both coin-operated, is also available to guests. Fires of any kind are not permitted, but barbecues are welcome as long as they're kept off the grass (the site supplies bricks just for this purpose). The park has a small grocery shop selling basics such as milk, sweets, ice creams and drinks; it also stocks local produce such as jams. More shops and a pub are in Horam, a few minutes' stroll away. And if you're here for the seaside, beaches at Eastbourne and Lewes are within half an hour; Brighton is within 45 minutes and famed seaside towns such as Rye and Hastings are 30 to 45 minutes from the site. Local buses serve all major towns in the area.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Francesca. Many thanks for your kind review. Had you enquired, we would have been able to tell you that there are 2 facilities on site that would have made the baby changing issue less of a problem. We have a facility in the top field, and also in the lower field where you were staying. Hope that it didn't detract from your holiday too much! Look forward to seeing you back with us! T&D and the Team

Liked -The campsite was lovely and clean.
-Owners were welcoming.
- Great space for the kids to play on the pitch
- Nearby to Knockhatch, Drusillas and the science centre is handy if visiting

Disliked - The riverside cafe is closed on monday and Tuesday and unfortunately we were not aware of this until our second day when we wanted to go there.
- The onsite shop doesn't stock much.
- The park pictured is not actually the park onsite
-Lack of information about local area, places to visit which are listed on pitch up (couldnt find listed nearby things on Google even)
- Firepits not allowed but BBQs are...
- The wooded area around the edge was unsafe with bent up barbed wire where people had obviously trapped it to go into the woods

From the manager: Hi Campers. Many thanks for your review. We appreciate them all, and we're please that you had a good stay. Unfortunately, the Lakeside Cafe/Bar/Bistro has never opened on a Monday or Tuesday, and as a completely separate business we have no control over their opening hours. We do have in our reception a iVisit England stand that has a large volume of leaflets re places to go throughout Sussex and the South East. Our licensing conditions prohibit open fires / wood burning on site, and we go to great lengths to make all of our potential guests aware of this. There are numerous campsites around East Sussex that allow open fires and if that is a preference, then guests should use those. With regard to the fencing around the site edges of the woodland - which is not our property - we are continually re-fencing those areas and we place signage to advise no entry. Unfortunately, unsupervised children (and as we have discovered, adults too) seem to believe that they have the right to tread down the fencing and venture into the woods. Thanks again for the review. T&D and the Team.

Nicola A.

Powered cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Everything - we had a fab stay and came with our two grandchildren for a night in our campervan. Had a hard standing pitch with EHU. Pitch was a fab size; toilet/shower block was immaculate.
Site was very clean and exceptionally quiet giving how full it was.
Our young granddaughter cried when when left as wanted to stay longer - think that says it all.

Disliked Nothing

Powered grass campsite

Liked The size of the campsite, the surrounding trees and hedges give this campsite an appealing 'outdoorsy' pleasant atmosphere. The staff were welcoming, friendly, and helpful. Facilities were good, kept clean enough for a campsite. The set up of the showers/ toilets is very convenient, with spacious shower cubicles separate from the private cubicles for those who would rather dry wash. The shower cubicles have a separate area for drying and dressing. The hot water was consistently available allowing for adjustment to one's preferred temperature for a shower. Our group enjoyed every shower. The washing up area provides enough space for dishwashing for a number of campers at a time. The pitch size was generous, enough for privacy balanced with opportunities for interaction with neighbours. In addition to local walks, if fancying driving, there is the nearby Arlington Reservoir for a scenic walk and a bird sanctuary there, with a dedicated bird hide. Additionally, only 30mins drive to the start of the Seven Sisters cliff walk from Eastbourne and Eastbourne sea side.
