Primitive grass RV campsite
Liked: We liked the wonderful views across the valley and of Bodiam Castle. It was peaceful and had a very relaxed vibe. Terry and Nathan were friendly and wanted to make sure we had a great stay. Also a great location for walks and Terry has done a lot to attract wildlife onto the site.
Disliked: Nothing

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: - Back to basics natural campsite with great views - Really friendly hosts - Easy to get to local attractions - Easy setup with car next to tent - No strict rules or regulations
Disliked: - Noisy neighbours till past midnight, would be good to have a walkthrough by the owner to get loud people to keep it down - Showers unfortunately stopped working - No waste disposal point

Liked: Warmest welcome and personal attention by the hosts, and we got a spot with a terrific view. All pitches are nicely spaced. It was lovely
Disliked: If I was being nit picking I’d say I prefer compost loos to portaloos …but it really is not picking. The facilities were clean, and that’s the most important thing

Liked: Lovely campsite with great views and well spaced pitches allowing for some privacy and peace. Terry and his colleague were very friendly and hospitable. Toilets were clean. My first experience at a rustic fairly basic campsite with less facilities and actually it was wonderful to just pitch up and enjoy the space. We wished we had more time there. Thank you and will be visiting again for sure.

Primitive grass RV campsite
Liked: Our second stay within a month, as previously we were greeted by the site's friendly hosts, they even reserved a pitch near where we stayed a few weeks earlier. It's nice campsite to go to enjoying the peace and quiet away from our usual city life without sirens and traffic noise. Set on a hill it has an amazing view, we can actually see Bodiam Caste from our pitch. There are walks nearby to go to a nearby town Staplecross for some basic food shop. And of course, a nice walk to Bodiam Castle. Definitely one to add to our favourites list to go back to :)

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: What a lovely campsite! So very peaceful and really well thought out by Terry to make the most of the lovely countryside with lovely spaced out pitches. We enjoyed the most relaxing weekend, all of the campers were super respectful, there to enjoy the surroundings and get a dose of the great outdoors. Shower was £1 a go and lovely and warm too. If you want to go the the White Dog Inn up the road i would recommend booking a few days ahead as it was fully booked both evenings, we popped in for a drink and the food looked amazing so hope we'll have better luck next time. We will certainly be back next year!
