Excellent first visit

Our first visit to this enchanting site, lovely quiet pitches surrounded by nature and wildlife. Pleasing dog walks right on the door step, your only choice is do I go left or right today? Excellent pub nearby accessed through the woods on a well marked path (bring a headtorch) This site had everything we needed including well stocked shop for essentials in reception, abundant information in the info room, laundry and a dog wash area! Wardens were attentive and seemed to be constantly tidying up and cleaning the facilities, the place was spotless. Only considerations, the final access road is narrow with passing places, but it's only a few hundred yards, and there is no TV reception unless you use the on site TV boosters (cables available in the shop if you don't have one) Perfect site for couples with or without dogs and families that are into nature, wildlife photography that sort of thing. If you want to get away from it all for a few days, this is the spot.

Immaculate best site we’ve stayed on, picturesque great for dog owners

I would highly recommend this site we stayed for a 2days the site is immaculate one of the best we have stayed at. As well as being spotless the location is idyllic and peaceful surrounded by woodland which is great for dog walking and easily leads to a great pub serving excellent food at reasonable prices. The wardens were very friendly, helpful and kind. John went above and beyond his duty to help us with a problem with the electrics in our camper van which he helped us solve. Would very highly recommend and will definitely be visiting again.

Well run campsite surrounded by picturesque woodland

This is an attractive peaceful site surrounded by ancient woodland. Well maintained, with all the facilities you would expect from a Caravan Club site including a clean & fully working shower block. Friendly & helpful wardens.

My new favourite site

First visit to Fairlight. What a gem. Only 75 minutes from home but a different world. Pitched on the edge of the woodland and surrounded by bluebells. The scent was amazing. Woken most mornings by the local woodpecker and heard our first cuckoo of the year. Had a lovely walk through the woods to the local pub (The two sawyers). The food was excellent. We stayed on a serviced pitch, there are only four though so maybe add to these? Only stayed for four nights but will definitely be back.

Idyllic woodland site

We've visited Fairlight Wood twice now - it's one of our favourite CAMC sites. It's situated in woodland, with wildflowers spilling over into the site and a constant background chorus of birdsong. It would be tempting not to leave the site were there not such a choice of interesting places to visit nearby including Rye, Winchelsea, Hastings and, of course, the sunken forest at Pett Level Beach. It was very interesting hearing from the warden, John DIck, about the various ways he manages the site to maximise biodiversity and to encourage wildlife. This is a very important aspect of campsite management so far as we are concerned. Fairlight Wood sets an example of excellent practice we wish more sites would follow.

Fairlight Wood

Hadn't visited this site before, despite visiting the area quite often. It's a very nice location, set in a wood. Very quiet and peaceful, but with easy access to all the attractions of the area. Definitely one to return to

Twice is not enough

Just finished our second visit , everything from peace tranquillity walks pubs sights towns coast history and plenty of woods, are all on your door step, the night sky is spell binding, site exceptional has it all oh did I mention the variety of fantastic walks , canals coastal parks woods OS explorer map opens new things you never realised were on your doorstep , and discover an area rich with History, every walk has some form of refreshment to saviour . easy to fill 5 days rammed with things to do and relax every evening, probably what makes all this beautiful is it's not really that much fun for the poor teenagers ,alas somebody's lose is others gain . Not a massive site so everything near as is woods edge , nature and complete quiet. Hope our third visit charms us as well as the previous two.

Keep this to yourself......

Fantastic site, location perfect, tucked away in the woods. Facilities spotless. The management team in John and Susan Dick are without doubt the most helpful and friendly we have ever encountered in thirty years, nothing was too much trouble, all done with a smile - a real one! We have just returned from ten days - for my wife, two weekends for me - where we relaxed, walked, watched the abundant wildlife, oh and chilled! Our first visit, have just re-booked! One note of caution, the last 500m along Watermill Lane is very narrow single carriageway, new arrivals should be after 1300, and those leaving should do so promptly by 1200, or there is likely to be tears before bedtime.

What a gem

This was our first visit to Fairlight Wood, we booked ourselves in for five nights ( wish it could of been so much longer) Although arriving slightly later than planed the greeting received was fantastic 👍 the wardens were lovely and gave us all the necessary info. The woodland walks are wonderful, our two little shih tzu dogs had a fab time 😎 they loved the woodland trail to the Two sayers pub as much as us lol, heading to the other end of the village you will find the Royal Oak pub, and in between there is a lovely tea room. We have another six nights booked for the end of April, I know you should not wish your life away but it can not come quick enough. Mark & Lin

My favourite CMC site so far

We are staying here at the moment and it's beautiful...even in last night's very rough weather with high winds and lashing rain! The site staff are very helpful, facilities immaculate and there's a very good pub 5 minutes walk through the woods. Fairlight Wood is small but there's still a choice of shaded or open pitches. There's no playground but the site is surrounded by beautiful woodland for our grandchildren to let off steam. Today, the sun is shining, the sky is blue and the air is full of birdsong. I can't wait to come back when the bluebells are in flower.
