2 nights at Cattlestone Farm Adult Only

Good toilets and nice hot showers. Well supplied washing up services. Spacious and well maintained campground.

2 nights at Chalky Downs

Beautiful view and a very quiet secluded campsite but with great transport connections to Brighton!

Weekend Trip to Dogwood Cottage Campsite

We had 2 nights in this lovely spot with plenty of space, peace and quiet despite being full on first night. Toilets and showers clean and hot! Good base for local dog walks and visits to the coast.

Weekend Trip to Hook Farm Campsite

Great place with the basics- that’s all you need when camping. Lovely setting

4 nights at Chalky Downs

Genuinely could not fault anything about this site. Beautiful views, great amenities and owners that could not have been more accommodating. Truly a wonderful campsite and easily the best in the area. Quick bus into brighton just outside too.

Weekend Trip to Cattlestone Farm Adult Only

Lovely camp site and very welcoming hosts! We stayed in the Foxglove tent and it was lovely. The communal kitchen has excellent amenities. There was an oven, gas hob, pizza over, bbq, plates, crockery, cutlery and things to wash up! You have your own cupboard, fridge and shower/toilet which was great! Easy to get to and not far from some great hiking spots. We had a great time and would stay again 😊

Weekend Trip to Housedean Farm Campsite

Lovely spot. Very good of them to refund us the difference when half of our party couldn’t join in the end. Much appreciated.

Weekend Trip to The Barn KT9

Just had the most incredible overnight bivvy experience at KT9 Barn – a true haven for anyone bikepacking or wild camping near London. From the moment I reached out, Charlie’s communication was faultless – warm, welcoming, and full of useful details to make the most of the stay. You instantly get the sense that he genuinely cares about the experience you’re going to have. Already planning my next stay.

Nice camp on a nice site. Facilities worked well highly recommend

2 nights at Tomkins Farm

Before we arrived the communication was effective and succinct. We found the property easily and our pitch. We had chosen a ‘glamping’ tent that was clean, spacious and well appointed. It was a beautiful, green, calm and quiet area. Philip gave us a couple of great tips on where to eat locally.

3 nights at Housedean Farm Campsite

Excellent facilities and nice big pitches. The site is quite windy but overall a lovely location .

5 nights at Tomkins Farm

We loved staying at Tomkin's Farm! We were there for 5 nights and, despite some stormy weather, it was brilliant. Philip's site has the perfect location; we love all the llamas, sheep, the camels and the wildlife. We also really enjoyed the breakfasts, burgers and pizzas cooked on the campsite! Best egg in a bap ever :)

2 nights at Chalky Downs

We had a really nice stay (despite the weather!) at Chalky Downs. The campsite has everything you need and all the facilities were always very clean even though it was a busy bank holiday. Sharen, the host, is lovely, so friendly and welcoming! We will be back I’m sure :)

Weekend Trip to Lagnersh camping

Been here for the second time this year and probably the best camp for my children, they learnt to ride a bike, play football, play hide and seek and many other games. Campers were always polite and staff too. I'll definitely come back this summer .

1 night at Tomkins Farm

Good facilities, plenty of space between pitches, great location for walks, farm animals and local activities

Weekend Trip to Littleton Farm Campsite

Ditchling Boutique Camping

101 units · Tents6 acres · Ditchling, East Sussex, South East England

Hunker down in a historic village, surrounded by vineyards, hilly countryside and some rather spectacular views. With Ditchling Camping as your base, you’ll be on track for rural bike rides or visiting Brighton and its busy coast 25 minutes’ drive away. That’s because this dog-friendly site is in Ditchling – a village in the splendid South Downs National Park and a rather excellent location for all sorts of days out. Good news if the whole family is tagging along: there’s plenty to play with around the site, including an adventure trail through the woodlands, a swing tree and places for kids to fashion their own little dens. The site is only a five-minute drive (or a 30-minute walk) from the traditional Jack and Jill windmills and the neighbouring family-run pub, which serves both grub and good ales. A vineyard is 15 minutes’ walk away from the site if you'd like to include a wine-tasting tour on your break. Otherwise, simply pedal along country lanes on the surrounding cycling routes (it’s easy enough to hire a bike locally). On your route, you might want to stop by in characterful Ditchling, home to local craftspeople and winemakers. There’s a nice selection of independent shops here, plus cosy cafés and pubs that will serve you a good spread of Sussex food, all within a 5-minute walk. Back on site, end the day with a cosy evening beside the fire-pits. The site facilities are nicely straightforward otherwise and include warm showers and a separate dishwashing area and of course our newly installed Composting Toilets.

Camping in Seven Sisters guide

Overview

You’ve probably heard of the White Cliffs of Dover, but there’s an equally spectacular set of white cliffs along the southern shores of Sussex—the Seven Sisters. Marvel at the dramatic chalk cliffs from Seaford Head or Birling Gap, or head down to Cuckmere Haven to view the cliffs from the beach. Hikers can also tackle the 12-mile (4-6 hour) Seven Sisters walk along the cliff-tops, part of the South Downs Way national trail. Campers can pitch their tent in the Seven Sisters Country Park or choose from several campsites within the South Downs National Park.

When to go

Visiting the Seven Sisters is a popular choice for day-trippers from London, and viewpoints can get crowded in July and August. Make an early start to snag a parking spot or opt for a weekday visit out of season to enjoy the views to yourself. Camping at Seven Sisters Country Park is possible from April through October only, but some campsites within the South Downs National Park stay open year-round.

Know before you go

The Seven Sisters cliffs are located between Seaford and Eastbourne, along the south coast of Sussex. The main access points are from Seaford to the west, or Birling Gap in the east. Parking is available at both sites.
There is a Visitor Centre, restrooms, a café, and paid parking at the Seven Sisters Country Park. From the park, it’s a 3-mile walk or drive to reach the cliffs.
The Seven Sisters Country Park campsite is a walk-in, tent-only ground with toilets, a cold water shower, and drinking water. You’ll need to bring a stove and all other camping gear with you.
The cliff-top walk is exposed, so wear hiking shoes and weather-appropriate clothing. Coastal winds can be strong, so you might want a light jumper even in summer, and choose a hat with a neck strap.
The cliff viewpoint at Birling Gap is wheelchair accessible.
