What customers say

Spacious, friendly spot with stunning South Downs views. Guests rave about clean facilities & hot showers, plus weekend pizza/breakfast. Staff are super welcoming. Can get busy on weekends though, with occasional noise and crowded facilities. Shop prices a bit steep, more washing-up points would be nice.

Disliked No coffee at 7.00am or before. If no one wants to get up to work at that time get a Costa vending machine available 24/7
Good coffee is very important to many people these days, especially when waking up. Please really conythis.

Not worth it unless you want a lot of noise and lots of kids.

Liked Nothing about the site. The owners were polite enough to understand we didn’t want to stay.

Disliked Lots of noise. Loads of kids running around. Not sure how genuine the “great” reviews are. We arrived and left straight away after seeing how busy it was. Facilities looked disappointing.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.

As with any campsite, there are times of the year that are naturally busier than others. You visited during the Eastbourne Airbourne weekend, which is one of the most popular events in the area and, as such, our site was at full occupancy. Many of our guests specifically choose to stay with us at this time to enjoy the atmosphere and the air show.

We do our best to provide a safe and family-friendly environment, and the majority of our guests tell us they enjoy the atmosphere during peak weekends. Our reviews reflect a wide range of stays across the season, not just during major events.

We appreciate all feedback, but we also encourage future guests to consider the timing of their visit when choosing dates, as quieter stays are always possible outside of peak events.

Highly recommend to any family, amazing staff, clean and tidy site.

Local attractions

If you’re walking along the South Downs Way, about three and a half miles from site look out for the Long Man of Wilmington, a 235ft-high figure etched on the side of the chalk hill. Head to Pevensey Castle and Pevensey Bay to see a very famous spot from British history. This beach is said to be where William the Conqueror came ashore in 1066 before the Battle of Hastings. The site of the battle itself is half an hour’s drive away from site, six miles outside Hastings and handily enough called Battle so you can’t miss it. If entertaining the kids is on the agenda, Knockhatch Adventure Park (15 minutes’ drive) and Drusillas Park (20 minutes) – both with rides, zoo and playgrounds – should be just the ticket.
