First site in UK
This camping site was our first camping in the UK. We were at first shocked by the price and felt taken as new member of the CAMC. Otherwise in was fine to stay.

Lovely Peaceful site with brilliant wardens
We have just returned from a four night stay at Fairlight and what a wonderful site it is. The wardens are so friendly, everything is so clean and tidy. Lovely 6 minute walk (we timed it 😊) through the woods, which is marked by white paint to the Two Sawyers a lovely pub where we had some food and drink. It is also possible to walk ( but we drove 😂) to Pett Level for walk along the beach.
We had a squirrel visit us everyday as we sat outside and waking up to bird song every morning. If you just want to chill this could be the site for you. Also ideal base to head into Hastings or other local attractions. We will return but it is so popular it’s hard to get pitch.
Lovely site
Stayed for 3 nights over Bank Holiday. Great location. Cheryl and Dean hosted a Jubilee celebration which saw more members gather together than we’ve ever seen on any site. They raised much needed funds for Sussex Air Ambulance via a raffle.
Great hosts with a well kept site who are a credit to the Club.
Peaceful and calm
What a lovely, quiet and well maintained site. Perfect for us, now we are not required to take holidays in school holiday time! I’m not sure that it is a suitable site for children, as there are no play areas. However, it would be wonderful for them to wander through the woods, not on their own as they lead to roads, if they are nature lovers.
The Two Sawyers pub is just a short walk through the woods, via well marked track, but be careful of slipping if it has rained recently.
All in all we had a very restful visit.
Peaceful birdsong
This is a lovely site. Surrounded by woods, bluebells, birdsong and peace. We were greeted by the warden who was SO kind and friendly we felt immediately safe and welcome.
Just a short wander through the woods and you’re at the Two Sawyers pub and a few miles down the road to Pett level beach.
Great cream tea options at the Tic Tockery ( just down the road).
Clean quiet shower block. We couldn’t get reception on the telly, probably due to the trees.
We will come again. Highly recommend.
Beautiful woodland break
Thank you Cheryl and Dean for a wonderfully peaceful break on your very well managed site. The woodland setting full of the scent and colour of bluebells and wood anemones is a rare treat. Cheryl gave us a lovely welcome and Dean was always smiling as he quietly worked around the site (no noisy buggies flying up and down here!). It was truly relaxing and we hope to return one day.

Lovely little site
Lovely peaceful site set in beautiful woodlands with plenty of pathways to explore.The site facilities are somewhat dated but immaculately clean as was the entire site. The wardens, Dean and Cheryl were fantastic, we were greeted with the warmest welcome, and nothing was to much trouble, a real asset to the club and made our stay all the better.
Peaceful site
Our first visit to this lovely small clean site.We had three nights and the weather was good for walking and cycling .The managers are very helpful and friendly. Great location, plenty of walks straight from site. We were given very helpful walking route info from the site managers . We did have a nice bike ride down to Pett along to Winchelsea and through Icklesham there is a nice pub called Robin Hood which is at the top of Watermill lane .Two sawyers pub is nice and a short walk from site , we were able to pick up a news paper from the local butchers which is a short walk from site too. Old Hastings was lovely and Hastings country park has some great walking trails.We did the Three Glens. We have recommended this site to our Motorhome friends and we will definitely come back.
Superb peaceful site
Just returned from a week on this site.weather was superb so really enjoyed the walks available from site. The walk to Pett Level is well worth the effort!Wardens very friendly and helpful. Two pubs offering food available in easy walking from the site, Two Sawyers and The Royal Oak, of the two for us the Royal Oak food was better ( exceptional Sunday Roast, food home made). You must visit the cafe up from the Two Sawyers ( it’s part of the hairdresser) called The Tic Tocery, has patio area at rear with amazing view and quality of coffee and cakes superb.
If you visit Rye go to the Old Borough Arms and sit on the outside balconies to watch the world go by and eat freshest fish batches we have ever had. You won’t be disappointed
Buses pretty regular through week but only two on Saturday.
Site I feel is more for adults as would need transport to take children to be entertained
Will definitely be back
