Very good location, nice people but check the price
This is a very nice site ,the views are extensive, and a nice walk down the orchard brings you to the ponds and the summerhouses. Here it is nice to sit and while away some time down their. The windows could do with cleaning and a few friendly spiders, but deer and foxes can be seen too. The orchard has seen better days, but that doesn't detract from the view, but a shame it won't have a strong a crop of apples etc.
The toilet block is clean, a good shower and equiped with toilet rolls. We were the only visitors on site, one night and it topped out at three vans, although there are some people looking after horses. However, the toilet roll magically disappeared whilst we the only visitors and weren't on site - somebody else must have been heavily using it. It is a shame that there weren't many visitors because this is a nice site, and the fact that there were no photos of the site may have a negative impact for people visiting. I studied google maps but that doesn't give the real idea of what the landscape is like.
The road is not as bad as somebody suggested, we didn't notice it and remember you used it to get in.
The road is potentially dangerous, but turn left out of the gate and wander 400 yards down the road utilising pavement and banks with a little on the road will bring you to the lane taking you to the 1066 way. This is a nice walk to Battle, but that will be 4 miles round trip.
The only downer is the price, I know that times are changing and costs are going up. The other two people we spoke to who turned up also mentioned to us the price £25/night. Again the website stating £16 is way off the mark.
Great little site, if you are prepared to pay the price you will enjoy it.
