  • Family site behind a 17th-century pub in the South Downs National Park
  • Jane Austen’s House 10 minutes’ drive; The Watercress Line 20 minutes
  • Spacious, dog-friendly grass pitches; meals and takeaways available
What’s better than camping in the South Downs National Park? Camping holidays in the South Downs National Park with a characterful 17th-century inn attached, that’s what. Especially when it's one serving top-notch food and fine ales and welcoming you in with a sea of friendly faces. Tucked behind this popular and storied pub, the pop-up Camp Whichway @ The Pub With No Name sits on a plateau about 800ft above sea level and at the meeting point of three parishes steeped in history. You can get your feet under the table in the bar every night, freeing up plenty of time for you, the kids and any dogs to explore the fertile farmland and undulating chalk downlands of the national park by day. The level site has generous grassy pitches in a flower-filled meadow that’s staggering distance from the pub. There are flushing loos and hot showers in the timber-clad facilities block, plus refuse disposal and a washing-up area close by. Guests have easy access to ambles – straight from canvas to countryside if you like – under mature trees, as well as stunning sunsets and star-filled skies on clear nights.
