What customers say
This quiet, woodland campsite has spacious pitches & a peaceful vibe. Owners are friendly & helpful, facilities clean. Kids love exploring nature. Some wish for more frequent cleaning & extra facilities at busy times, but overall, it’s great for a relaxing break.

Definitely would consider returning for weekend next year
Powered grass campervan or tent site
Liked Hosts were very helpful and made daily visit to see if we needed anything. The toilet blocks were well kept and clean.
The pitch we were given was great and not crammed together which was also a plus for us. Grass was even and pitched up tent without any issues.
Disliked Definitely need to stock up on food/milk etc before you arrive as quite a distance to local shop/pub.
General rubbish and outside washing up sink could be better maintained.

Powered grass campervan or tent site
Liked Welcomed on site by the lovely owners. A beautiful idyllic site, very peaceful and quiet. Large pitches, with plenty of space. Surrounded by nature, dragonflies, butterflies, many birds including a woodpecker and an owl. The showers and toilets are attended often and are kept very clean. The water pressure in the shower does drop if another camper is using water elsewhere, shower, washing up or nearby taps. The track from the road to the campsite was a little too uneven for our campervan, but a small price to pay for such a picturesque site.

Liked Everything. The staff were warm and welcoming, and so friendly. On the Saturday there was a pop up bar in the woods with hot dogs and drinks. The food was amazing! Pitches were a great size and the toilets were clean and tidy. Great location for exploring the south downs. Highly recommend

From the manager: Thank you for all the ideas. Will definitely look at getting these actioned. We are hoping to get a tank put on the roof to help solve the water pressure issue.
We do hire the field out for weddings in June and July. If you would like details, please give me a call.
Beautiful tranquil site with lovely staff & nice clientele.

Liked The incredibly friendly owners - they had a chat with all the campers as they did the log run each night, it really made the stay.
Huge expanse of woodland for the children to explore and play in. Kids are able to play and explore and be kids. You are off the beaten track and felt very safe.
Tents not too close together, plenty of room for children to play ball games etc.
We didn't have to wait for a shower, the facilities are well matched to the number of pitches/campers. We saw owls and deer during our stay here, and heard all sorts of other wildlife.
The pub in the woods on the Saturday night was glorious.
Disliked Nothing at all. We will be back!

Powered grass campervan or tent site (XL)
Liked Peaceful site down a wooded track, with some shade later in the day. Most pitches looked flat, maybe a little slope near the bottom of the site near the trees. 2 showers and 3 loos in the ladies block, plus the outside shower (not tested). Electric pitches were long, and wide enough for a tent plus vehicle. Water taps near the shower block, with a washing up area. Liked could bring own fire brazier and wood. Nearest supermarkets in Hailsham about 7 miles away. Small CoOp nearer, but not visited. There is no reception area, so check your confirmation to make sure you're on the right pitch! There is plenty of space on the site generally.......it may feel a little cosy when the electric pitches are all occupied at the same time! Hosts, Francis and Pam,do a nightly tour around 6pm to deliver wood, and check how you are. They are very warm and welcoming. Mobile signal not picked up on the campsite on Vodafone, but it improved as you walked along the track towards the exit. Not a problem for us, but may need to be considered if you rely on connecting!
Disliked New pitch neighbours arrived midway through our booking. They played loud music all day/evening and let their many dogs wander around off lead.

From the manager: Many thanks for your kind words.
The perfect place to ‘get away from it all’.
Powered grass campervan or tent site (XL)
Liked We were two families staying for a weekend in August in two pitches. The site was spacious, with a large wood for the children to investigate. The owners were around every evening to rent a fire pit or if you needed more wood. The toilets were some of the cleanest I’ve seen. We had a very calm relaxed weekend.
Disliked Absolutely perfect.

From the manager: Thank you for your kind words. I love to see the children having fun.
