A brilliant campsite with friendly, helpful staff and great amenities. The pitches aren't the most level, but this is on the South Downs so it's as good as you can expect with the terrain. There is a fantastic shop and cafe on site in the reception. They have lovely new toilets with hand dryers, great showers, freezers and anumber of power points available so should keep most campers happy.

Just a picture perfect campsite. Cycling Southdown Way. This was my second campsite on the three day venture. No comparison to awful place a stayed the night before. Super friendly staff. Super clean showers (lots of hot water) and toilets. Campsite really well kept. Great shop. Highly recommended.

A perfect campsite!! Fantastic amenities, all kept very well stocked and clean. Everything you could need and more. Showers were great, plug sockets, fridge, little shop! We were greeted by different members of staff throughout our stay, they were all very friendly and helpful. Campsite is served by a frequent bus service which we used numerous times over the weekend. You can hear a light hum from the big road nearby but with earplugs it's unnoticeable.

Stayed 2 nights, Friday & Saturday, in 2 person pod. Absolutely beautiful campsite, facilities great, friendly owner. 5 loos, saw them being cleaned daily. 3 roofed, 1 without roof, really well designed showers with plenty of hooks made showering super easy. Kitchen area with 3 sinks, massive fridge, half size freezer, kettle. Drinking water separate. Undercover getting ready area with mirrors, plugs and sinks. Unclear whether hairdryers/straighteners were allowed in these plugs? But we had no idea these were available, so this needs updating on website. Also a cute shop open daily. Unmentioned extras that were in pod, heater and fairy lights, fitted sheet already on mattresses, side table. Suggested improvements: door keyhole plug (extremely windy), magnets or something to keep blinds closed, and maybe some other handy storage solutions hooks/shelves or something. Great stay, would definitely come back.

Lovely well set up campsite. Toilets were spotless. I was backpacking through the southdowns and they are right by them which was very handy.. Only issue was that the main road is busy all night so bring Earplugs. I'd stay again.
