Non-electric grass motorhome pitch
Liked: Quiet and feels off grid and wild. 4 Portaloos which were the cleanest i've had all summer. Plus a very good shower available for very fair £2. Lovely chap on site always seemed available for directions or help. Walkable to many things, including 3 pubs, bodiam castle, the steam train, the river for kayaking or paddleboarding, and the hub cafe. Really lovely countryside - went out for a few hours and barely saw another person! true off grid heaven.
Disliked: Can't say I disliked anything, but maybe somewhere to wash up pots would be handy.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Lovely view over fields and Bodiam castle in the distance.
Disliked: The field was 80% overgrown spikey weeds so there wasn't much room for the kids to run free or ride their bikes.
Also, for a rural camping experience the pitches were a bit too close.

A perfect place to come and spend time with the kids.
Only an hour and a half from home but feels a world away.
Nice area for walks through the fields and the woods with the kids.
