Absolutely beautiful environment- amazing birdlife, open views for miles. Close to White Cliffs for supplies, meals at the pub and tourist activities. Perfect environment for self contained campers like us. The rustic on site loo was useful. We changed our plans last minute and Honor was easy to contact and totally flexible.

Camping at Honor’s place is always fantastic. It’s our 4th? 5th? time there and it won’t be our last. With flushing toilets, hot showers and a million stars, what more could you really want in a camp site? We had more wood than we could ever want to burn ready for us when we arrived. Our host checked in on us to make sure we had everything we needed (we did!) and let us have a pat of their gorgeous horses.
White Cliffs is an awesome place and Honor’s place being out of town means that the open sky is free from light pollution if you want to grab some awesome night sky photos or just sit back in your chair and watch the satellites glide by.

Tips for snagging a campsite
