Campsite - Reopens 23rd April 2026

A Relaxing Camping Experience

Our charming campsite offers a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, perfect for those looking to explore the historic and picturesque surroundings of East Sussex. Located just two miles from the beautiful town of Rye and a 10-minute drive to the golden sands of Camber, our campsite is the ideal base for your countryside adventure. So if you've just come off the Euro Tunnel or the Folkestone and Dover ferries, come and visit us, we're not far away.

Our campsite is designed for tents, campervans and motorhomes (up to 6 metres in length). Spread across two spacious fields totalling 2.5 acres, there’s plenty of room for everyone to enjoy their own little slice of tranquillity. We have 30 pitches, 16 of which are electric pitches, you can enjoy a peaceful and uncrowded camping experience.

Unfortunately, our licence doesn’t accommodate caravans or motorhomes over 6 metres in length. However, for those seeking a touch of luxury, we also offer two Bell Tents, a delightful Shepherd’s Hut, and four en suite B&B rooms.
