Electric optional grass tent pitch

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.

Electric grass touring pitch

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

Electric grass touring pitch

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.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Beautiful peaceful site. My dog was fascinated with the horses in the next field plus my daughter has decided to take up horse riding again which I'm so pleased about ! Anyway felt very secure high Street very close by . Budgens do a good bbq range too ! Owner had text me beforehand and let me know any issues can call her. I didn't need to but was nice to know. Toilets were very clean and well stocked with toilet paper too ! Didn't have the weather to go paddle boarding but if we had its a 10 min drive to do that

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.
