Pond field unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked: Loved the peace & quiet in the pond field. Good site for nature lovers. Great showers in the farm field, good water pressure, nice and hot and clean. Toilet block in pond field is a bit dated but always clean and does the job. Free fire pit and cheap bag of wood. Overall this site is great value for money, I will definitely be visiting again.

Farm field unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked: The showers and toilet block all seemed to be in good working order, there was hot water and it was clean. It is a large, open field, with lots of space to be distant from other pitches or for children and dogs to run around.
Disliked: The field isn't especially flat: we pitched on a slight slope and thought we needed to because we arrived when everywhere was quite full up but when I looked more closely, only about 3-4 pitches were on really flat ground. In addition, the field is directly under the Gatwick airport flight path so we found the aircraft noise quite disruptive. Those things are not really in the site's control, but worth bearing in mind if you are looking for somewhere very peaceful. More problematic was that, when we arrived, we found out that there was a music festival happening at the site that night. I am pretty sure that this either wasn't the case or wasn't made clear when I booked our stay, and we were not subsequently notified of it. The music did stop at 11, as per the campsite rules about noise, but the noise up to then was still unexpected and unwelcome.

From the manager: Hi there, Thank you for staying with us. We pride ourselves with our bespoke shower block and are so pleased that you enjoyed the space in the field. I would like to clarify that there definitely was not a festival on during your stay, but one band put on for the campers enjoyment, with food and a bar for the evening. There was plenty of notice given and there were signs up on site. If your concerns were bought to our attention while you were here, we could've offered you the more remote field, where you wouldn't be able to hear the music. All the best
Good spacious site with clean facilities and friendly atmosphere.

Liked: Lovely location, great walks nearby. We stayed in the farm field which had good hot showers, plenty of space, some pitches have wooden pub table and fire pits. Toilet block was clean (but unisex which I don’t personally like but was fine.)
Disliked: Unisex toilets.

Liked: We arrived in the pouring rain and the staff could not have been more helpful to us. Unloading our car & x3 kids under 5 into their trucks and driving us down to our pitch as the road was too boggy to drive on. They were so helpful & friendly and the kids loved it. But the quality of the road surface right by the Pond field really does need some attention. The facilities are very basic, but we knew that when we booked. There are unisex loos (up steep steps), spiders, dark but there was always toilet paper and the toilets themselves were fairly clean. The field itself it lovely, the woodland play area is fantastic. The surrounding countryside is beautiful. We saw Heron, a kestrel and deer right by our field. We really liked having an open (off ground) fire for smores. The hosts are very friendly and helpful. We loved the relative wild and open space of the camp but (stupidly) we didn't quite realise we would be sleeping right under a flight path to Gatwick. This didn't bother us so much at night but it was a shame not to hear the sounds of the lovely nature around us with gigantic aircraft flying overhead every 2 minutes.
Disliked: Airplane noise

Liked: Location was great but the airplanes (which we knew already) Place was huge, with playground for kids Toilets were very clean Food and coffee were available. Even some music and bubble party (till 9pm) one night for the kids to have A BLAST! Near some nice forest walk which we enjoyed immensely
Disliked: Nothing! Airplanes and helicopters passing by often were a bit of a killer, but we knew in advance and that's the price to pay for not being very far from London!
