Liked: Location was pleasant

Disliked: The facilities were barely tolerable, while there were taps and hookups at the pitches, that was it, no other facilities apart from one foul portaloo for the entire field, which ran out of water for hand washing on Friday night and had still not been topped up by the time we left on Sunday. They just about got away with it during our stay when there were probably no more than a dozen people on site in 4 caravans/campers, but that was only about a quarter of the site's capacity, for a full site it would have been a complete disaster. There are no showers, nowhere to wash up, nothing else.

Quite expensive for what's provided but the area is nice.

Liked: If you're happy, as I am, to be stuck in a field with a water supply an electric supply and the most primitive crapper in the whole world then you will be happy here. If you require something with proper facilities, go somewhere else.

Liked: Nice location

Disliked: Only 2 portaloos for 2 fields of campers is totally unacceptable and unusable by the morning we left a day early Also the EHU points were so close together and pitches weren’t allocated so we had no space with people pitching very close to us after we’d arrived

Liked: De ruimte vrijheid en de centrale ligging. Was super daar. Gezellige sfeer in het dorp.

Disliked: Met een dixy is niets mis mee maar leeg hem wat eerder. Dan voorkom je veel vliegen.

Local attractions

Keen on visiting the South Downs National Park? No wonder, when there are historical sites such as the Jack And Jill Windmills (15 minutes’ drive) and the National Trust's Cissbury Ring (half an hour), as well as the National Trust’s Devil's Dyke (15 minutes) for gorgeous valley hikes with historical farms and tearooms. Brighton (40 minutes) might also take your fancy. The seafront is particularly splendid, especially with all the activities that happen down at Brighton beach and the Palace Pier. You might want to go sightseeing, starting with the Royal Pavilion, or pedal out of the city on the Undercliff Path past Brighton Marina and chalk cliffs. If you don’t get too distracted by Brighton’s aquarium or walking down The Lanes, there are more peaceful walks to be had at the Sussex Prairie Garden (five minutes) or the Woods Mill Nature Reserve - Sussex Wildlife Trust (five minutes). As for a quick look at the local history, the Henfield Museum (25 minutes’ walk) has a costume collection, old art and other historic artefacts.
