Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Beautiful location, great walks straight from the site including a pub 20mins away. Pitch up where you like and so we weren't right next to others. Toilets and showers were really clean and that area incl washing up station was well set up and only slightly away from where you pitch. Host very helpful too.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Hosts were welcoming and very helpful with lots of recommendations on walks nearby. Lovely peaceful location, lots of walks from the site and a couple of country pubs within walking distance. Grounds were well maintained and lots of choices of places got pitch up! Facilities were really good, some of the cleanest compost toilets we have experienced!

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Great campsite where you can pitch up anywhere you like on nice level spots. Whether you like to stay under the trees or in the open, there is a spot for you. This is a very basic campsite so don't expect any luxuries apart from 2 compost toilets, 2 showers (with nice hot water) and a place to do your washing up. The facilities might be basic but they are very clean and well maintained. Don't expect power or wifi. The owners are very friendly and helpful. The campsite is the perfect starting spot for some nice hikes or visits to nearby touristic spots. All in all a campsite worth driving the extra mile for.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Lovely Location, beautiful outlook and immediate site environment, friendly.

Disliked: Not a severe dislike ( we would still go back) but we have used better composting toilets and at busy times with just 2 + a portaloo they were quite busy. It was quieter after the weekend and they were okay. We would have liked the option of increasing the water temperature on the covered outdoor showers

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Heronsdale campsite is wonderful. Very organised and tidy. I had pre-ordered logs and a fire pit and they were waiting for us when we arrived. The location is stunning. We had a lovely walk to a nearby pub. We saw a barn owl both evenings we were there around dusk.

Local attractions

This is some splendid countryside, so those of you in search of walks, bike rides, horse rides and other outdoor antics should find plenty of suitable spots nearby. The farm is just on the edge of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and the South Downs National Park is close by too. Also not far off is the south coast – a drive of a little over half an hour gets you to walks around the Seven Sisters cliffs, Cuckmere Haven and Beachy Head or days on the beach in Bexhill-on-Sea and Eastbourne. If you’re into poking around on fancy estates, pay a visit to Rudyard Kipling’s former home Bateman’s (20 minutes’ drive), the National Trust estate Sheffield Park (half an hour) or the gorgeous gardens of Wakehurst (40 minutes). If you’ve got kids to entertain, tastes may skew more towards days out at Knockhatch Adventure Park (20 minutes), animal encounters at Drusillas Park (20 minutes) or rides on the Bluebell Railway (half an hour).
