We light our authentic Finnish sauna on Saturday evenings for all to use. Otherwise you can book the Sauna area for private use on Friday nights and Saturday day. Do give us more than an hours notice, it is wood heated and it takes a while to get hot!
CAMPFIRES
We love campfires and see them as an integral part of the camping experience. Campfires bring people together at the end of the day, to cook, socialise and relax. The smell of the wood smoke at twilight and the excitement on the kids faces when the marshmallows come out are bound to set you up for a perfect night away from the city lights! We sell crates of firewood, and hire fire pits for you to use during your stay.
MUSIC
The Lower Fields are for quiet camping. We would like it to be the perfect place for children to sleep and adults to chitchat around the campfires.
On the Upper Field and near the Centre Camp we do allow you to listen and enjoy any music. But please respect your fellow campers! We want everybody to be able to enjoy their weekend without being disturbed. We ask for quiet across the whole site from 11.30pm.
Overall we are quite a sociable site, with things happening at center camp every weekend. and a public campfire to sit around for a few mins after your sauna. We have a great area for large family groups. We pride ourselves on helping new campers get the most out of the experience come and hay hello at center camp.

The Shepherd's Hut at Coombe Farm Glamping is only an hour or so from London and within easy reach of Goodwood, Cowdray and the south coast; yet once you're here, you'll feel as if you've stepped through the back of the wardrobe and into the ancient woodland that surrounds, unimpeded views towards the South Downs and barely another soul around. The hut stands alone in the field, so you will exclusively enjoy the tranquility the land has to offer.
The Hut is equipped with fresh linen and towels, made extra cozy and warm with a beautiful flame and clean burning bio ethanol burner which creates a relaxed ambience, providing amazing heat for the chillier season stay.
The wash area is compact with everything you will need for alfresco catering and dining, including a great camp compressor fridge. We also provide equipment to cook on the ample fire pit for an authentic camp experience. We have a revitalizing, hot and spacious shower, all run from our off grid system. We also provide luxury toiletries.
Our loo is composting, extremely clean and freshly set up for every new guest and in keeping with our off grid, low-fi ethos.
Our family farm, Durleigh Marsh Farm is in Rogate, 5 min drive from Rake or about an hours walk through the woodland south from the hut. The popular Tea room offers a great breakfast and lunch menu. Booking is advisable.
Between the nearby traditional market towns of Petersfield and Haslemere you will discover a diverse choice of places to shop, dine and drink.
The site is encompassed by beautiful walks and trails taking you further into the heart of the South Downs.

We had the most incredible time at Charlotte’s campsite—it felt like our own little slice of paradise. From start to finish, Charlotte was brilliant with communication, making sure we had everything we needed.
The site itself is stunning, boasting a spectacular view and massive fields. Our three sausage dogs had the absolute time of their lives here: Cabbage spent the entire day sniffing around, Chutney never tired of playing fetch, and good old Dinky was happily following them both. It was the perfect, safe space for them to explore.
Even during an awful heatwave, this place excelled. Charlotte provided ice-cold water on-site, and thanks to the scorching sun all day, the huge bucket we brought along (plus our water bags) heated up perfectly. It meant we were even able to enjoy a lovely warm wash once the evening cooled down a bit!
Charlotte also went above and beyond by providing extra equipment from the huts that we hadn't brought with us, including folding chairs and tables. To top it all off, the raised fire pit was wonderful in the evening for roasting treats and keeping us warm as the night set in.
If you are looking for a place to slow down, unwind, and focus on the small things, this is it. We couldn't recommend Charlotte’s site enough!

Lovely glamping pod in beautiful woodland surroundings. The pod has everything you need and is very comfortable to stay in. Matt is a great host who is there if you need anything but doesn't intrude on your peace and tranquility unless required. Lovely village nearby, the Rising Sun pub is approx 15 minute walk away serving great food etc if you want a night off cooking. My wife and I would definitely recommend this retreat. Thanks Matt for everything we hope stay again soon

We had such a lovely stay here and would definitely recommend it. The accommodation was comfortable , well equipped, and had everything we needed for a relaxing break. It was peaceful, private, and the perfect place to switch off for a couple of days.
The hot tub was a real highlight, especially in the evening, and the whole setting felt really well looked after. Communication from the host was excellent, with clear instructions and a smooth check-in process.
We had a fantastic experience from start to finish and would definitely recommend staying here. Thank you again!

Camping here is a very nice experience. You are on a large field, tents far apart. The views are beautiful. There are several toilets and sinks to get water and wash. These are all clean.

We had a great stay at the barn!!! It is really an adventure in the middle of nowhere. The coffee is good and you are just 20 minutes walk from the station. Charlie helped us with a taxi when we wanted to be early in the queue of Wimbledon! We had nice contact with him. Three nights we were alone on the camping so that was fantastic!!! Back to basic with a shower nearly in the open air and a view on the fields👍 we loved it❤️

This was a beautiful piece of land on a hill with a spectacular view! It was the first camping trip for me and a friend, and we had a great time - just enough amenities to make everything straightforward, but not so many that it feels like glamping. There was a great supply of firewood, and the loo was very civilised.
The road leading up to the place is rather bumpy, so be wary if you have low suspension on your car!
