Liked: Fantastic, spacious site. Clean, warm showers, clean toilets. Lovely, friendly, helpful staff. Firewood, kindling etc available to purchase (really reasonable) and marshmallows (to the delight of my children!) will be returning. Peaceful setting. Just the switch off we needed.

Liked: Stayed at Hook Farm campsite with my elder son. Very warm welcome and a beautiful campsite in the rolling Weald countryside. Toilets, showers and water on-site but otherwise a really good near-wild camping experience. Plenty of space. No music rule worked for us. Basic but perfect if that's what you want. We will definitely visit again.
Disliked: No issues with the campsite at all, but the two pubs in West Hoathly / Sharpthorne are closed altogether some days and may have early closing.

Liked: Absolutely loved this site. Lush rolling hills of soft grass. Very sloped in parts but plenty of flat spots to pitch and the slopes make some pitches seem very private. Huge area with gallons of space to choose where to pitch - surrounded by woodland. The owner couldn’t have been nicer - very welcoming and super attentive to every single camper’s needs. He directed me to a great walk through the woods the other side of the road - with streams, mossy boulders and gorgeous trees and he is very knowledgable about the area. A haven of wildlife around - red kites and pheasants galore (thousands of them in the woods!). Compost toilet and showers were fab. A truly lovely site which I thoroughly recommend!

Liked: This is a magical campsite. There is space and glorious views...All at an usually fantastic price. The hosts make you very welcome and can provide anything you need to make sure everyone has the best possible experience. So unusual to see every expectation exceed.

Liked: We liked that it was spacious and very quiet. Also a couple of lovely pubs within walking distance. GREAT showers - best ones we’ve been to at a campsite!
Disliked: We weren’t so keen on the toilet facilities (compost & portaloos) by preference but they were well maintained and plenty of them dotted around.
