  • Small eco-campsite 15 minutes’ walk from the South Downs Way
  • A 15-minute drive from Brighton and half an hour from Glyndebourne
  • Off-grid site power by solar panels; pub 15 minutes’ walk
Set in 54 acres of spectacular South Downs chalk grassland, outrageously easy to get to (it’s an hour from London by train), and run on firmly green lines, Wolstonbury Dreaming has just a handful of spacious, remote camping pitches so you can relax in your own private outdoor space. Enjoy barbecues on open fires (buy locally sourced firewood on the site) while listening out for the skylarks and enjoying the spectacular views of Wolstonbury Hill and Newtimber Hill. Should you choose to venture off site, there’s a popular pub in Pyecombe village within 15 minutes’ walk, plus plenty of restaurants within 15 minutes’ drive offering food and drinks. Off-grid, state-of-the-art compostable toilets and washing facilities are available for all, along with a back-to-basics, outdoor bucket shower. The farm provides certified clean drinking water from its own bore hole, and runs on its own solar panels – so if you need to charge your phone and your battery bank has run out, there is a charging point in the barn.
