Unpowered grass tent site
Liked: Absolutely loved this site. Lush rolling hills of soft grass. Very sloped in parts but plenty of flat spots to pitch and the slopes make some pitches seem very private. Huge area with gallons of space to choose where to pitch - surrounded by woodland. The owner couldn’t have been nicer - very welcoming and super attentive to every single camper’s needs. He directed me to a great walk through the woods the other side of the road - with streams, mossy boulders and gorgeous trees and he is very knowledgable about the area. A haven of wildlife around - red kites and pheasants galore (thousands of them in the woods!). Compost toilet and showers were fab. A truly lovely site which I thoroughly recommend!

Liked: We liked that it was spacious and very quiet. Also a couple of lovely pubs within walking distance. GREAT showers - best ones we’ve been to at a campsite!
Disliked: We weren’t so keen on the toilet facilities (compost & portaloos) by preference but they were well maintained and plenty of them dotted around.

Liked: Lovely open site, lots of space. Compost toilets were cleaned regularly and was a really friendly site. Excellent value for money would definitely come back again
Disliked: You have to look for a level pitch as a lot of the site is on a bit of a slope. We had no problem finding one but might be more of a challenge at busier times. This is a very minor criticism though. Also be aware that it is on a flight path but this didn’t bother us.

Liked: Very spacious, beautiful site. Friendly and helpful owners/staff at recption kiosk. Pub within one mile walk. Lovely weekend; wish we could have stayed longer.
Disliked: Not big problems but: Loos could do with a small solar-powered light just so you can find them in the dark without flashing your torch around. We picked the site because we have a dog that is reactive to other dogs. Dogs were supposed to be kept on leads, but they weren't. Fortunately the site was open and spacious enough that it didn't cause a problem and most of the dogs kept their distance. You have to hunt for a flat spot to pitch, but they are there if you look. You're not allowed to take your own wood to burn.

Liked: Space in campsite. Lots of well kept compost toilets/portaloos. Campfires. 15min walk to a couple of pubs. Nice location for walking in Ashdown Forest.
Disliked: Only down fall was the hills. Hard to find flat pitch if busier, but seemed like everyone found their comfy spot.

Liked: Peace and quiet. Close to a couple of lovely pubs with a variety of food including vegan options. Welcomed on arrival and you can but fire wood, kindling, fire lighters onsite. Plenty of toilets all dotted around, lots of lovely woodland and space. The most amazing camping shower facility we have used. We have visited a couple of times now and will be back again.
