Lovely campsite for a family trip. Gorgeous woodlands to explore, good facilities, and good clear instructions for how to navigate the site and outlining the rules. Also a very good shop onsite! Would definitely come again.

The pitch was lovely and secluded, with clean water facilities (a lovely treat) and Donna was very accommodating, I'd recommend this to anyone who wants to escape from technology!

Really easy to find. Nice campsite and the owner was great, even calling to make sure we knew where we were going and any issues.

It was a lovely weekend camping at Cattlestone. Very clean facilities and great views. Donna and the staff were so welcoming and checks that we were doing fine with our stay. We even got to meet the friendly highland bull named Stanley. 😁

Weekend Trip to Cattlestone Farm Adult Only

Wonderful overnight stay. Peaceful, with lots of bird song and some distant sounding animals. Hot shower with the sun beaming through ☀️ facilities all clean and exactly what you need. Went to Arundel afterwards to see the tulip festival 🌷🌷🌷🌷

Weekend Trip to The Barn KT9

Thank you Charlie for a lovely stay. The plot was very well located, and amenities excellent. We enjoyed a lovely walk and coffee before heading home. There is a pub nearby, which was walkable and good. The only thing we weren’t so keen on was the sound from the clay pigeon shooting next door in the morning! But would definitely come back!
