24km from Worthing · 1 unit The Hidden Reservoir Camping opens door this year with 20 pitches just by the water! Located just within the borders of Southdown National Park, between Burgess Hill and Hassocks on the site of working plant Nursery, but pleasantly located just behind the site, in company of nature only.
The site is remote, but there is a few walking distance attractions:
1. A private gate into the Ditchling Common Park.
2. Village of Ditchling-a home to of craftsmen and makers, with beautiful history dating back to the Anglo-Saxon period. On your walk you can see the Ditchling Garden Manor building-a divorce settlement gift from King Henry VIII to Ann of Cleves, whom he liked, but sadly didn't love. A gift of the Manor and permission to retain the head was granted in 1541 and is still available for admiration (the house, the head is now long gone).
3. Pubs, vineyards and other farms-the area is known for its favourable conditions to grow varieties of grapes perfect for Champag.....oops, not allowed to say it.....for Sparkling Wine! Visit Ridgeview, which is a walking distance from The Hidden Reservoir Campsite. Enjoy a glass of bubbly and a vineyard walk. Towards South you can give a go to a local White Horse and also The Bull-two amazing pubs where you can enjoy both local beverage and food.
4. The Beacon-those who love a cycling challenge, The Beacon is a classic. The site is directly en route of the yearly London to Brighton ride, The Hidden Reservoir Campsite serves as a great starting point to park up, rest up and tackle the hill.
Please be quiet and respectful-enjoy the natures melody!
This is a working farm, so please arrive with patience and care.
