Liked: We had a wonderful time staying in one of the pods with our young kids (5 and 2 years old). It was the perfect setting for the kids to run freely and play all day long. The playground was very close to our pod, so our kids made friends with other kids camping and absolutely loved it.
The pod itself was very clean and well-presented. It was cold in the evenings, but we were snug and comfortable in our pod. The communal bathrooms were regularly cleaned with showers that are accessible 24/7.
There was loads to do with kids in the local area. For us a highlight was doing a 5km hike in the Hastings Country Park. It was a wonderful holiday and we highly recommend this campsite.

Primitive grass and earth tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: Nothing wrong with the site but it seems pitchup price was double what the campsite chair. I'd paid 24 for a tent one person one night on pitch up. Decided to stay another and paid £12 for a second night.
All of us in the group had the same experience. Unfortunately we contacted pitch up to query but they just said that was the price they charged...

From the manager: Hi Julie I have looked into your booking and have emailed you a confirmation of payment we received for the 1 adult for one night. You was charged £12 which is the price for 1 adult plus 1 car as you wished to stay for another night I charged you the additional £12 so the price was correct sorry for the confusion if you thought you was charged more. 26th June the payment come out as shown in the email I have sent hope this helps
Excellent would recommend.

Liked: I liked the facilities, location and playground for the little one. Staff were friendly and facilities were regularly cleaned
Disliked: I thought a pack up time of 10am on morning of departure was a little early especially with a little one to keep entertained. Didn’t detract from our stay and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves

Liked: Lovely open space so didn't feel like everyone was on top of you. Was allowed a fire and a BBQ which was lush. We stayed here in our camper for my partners birthday. Scenery was beautiful, facilities were good and really clean.
Little shop on site where you can buy kindle and wood and other basics you may have forgotten. Would definitely recommend it, good value for money, no complaints
