Liked: Remote location with fantastic night sky(no light pollution). Rachael was absolutely a fantastic host, dropped off fire pit and wood. On-site portaloos were in good clean order with air fresheners and hand gel, nice touch. Easy access to South Downs path and only a short walk into village and the pub, the Star and Garter where a very warm welcome, good beer awaited.

Liked: Wonderful stay in a magical location. Rachel was the perfect host delivering a fire pit and logs to my tent. The night sky was spectacular and the walks through the forest invigorating.

Liked: Beautiful view, very clean porta-loos, quiet area, good communication from campsite manager. Great for walkers or those that want a remote location with a beautiful view over the Downs.
Disliked: These are not dislikes really, because it’s a wild camping experience, but be aware there are no showers, not currently the ability to dispose of grey waste or toilet waste. Phone signal is not good at places on the site. There is a very rough track leading to the site.

Liked: A brilliant elevated spot which was thick with grass (April) so super comfy for camping with tents. Surrounded my trees so lots of wildlife to listen too. Super communications also from the owner throughout our stay.

Liked: A beautiful open expanse surrounded by deciduous trees, offers privacy, this site would never be overcrowded, the height of the field gives a great vantage point for sunset.
Disliked: For some people the road to the field may be a lot if they have a very nice car, my SUV was fine but I can see it being an issue for others.

Liked: The choices above are not relevant to the Wild camping experiance I had. Our host was superb, outstanding communication, very friendly and welcoming. Fresh water is being piped upto the fields and more than adequate toilet provision was available. The local pup offers a generous discount to campers if you show your booking form and is only a short hike away. The camping area is reasonably flat, so much so that with a small block on 1 wheel I manged to level the van off. I would advise a reasonable amount of ground clearance, super lowered VW campers may struggle. When wet the grass can be a little slippy in places with normal road wheels, but a short run up solved the puzzle, but dont let these small things prevent you from experiencing this dark light Nature reserve, Bats, Owls, plenty of birds , foxes, badgers, deer a plenty.
Disliked: Nothing, it was superb
