We stayed in Higgeldy tree house, it is truly magical, like something out of a fairytale. The design of the tree house is phenomenal, it is well equipped and the beds are very comfy. The coffee truck is nearby , perfect for nipping over for morning coffee and in the evening it turns into a bar. The visiting food trucks were useful so we didn't need to cook.The whole site has been carefully planned so that most camping pitches have their own area surrounded by trees. The staff are are friendly and very helpful. We will definitely be going back, maybe try Piggledy tree house or the Wild west cabin next time.

We had the most wonderful week staying in Angus the Fire Engine over May half term. Everything was set up to ensure we had a wonderful time. From the incredibly friendly welcome we received when we arrived, the cleanliness and well thought through accomodation to the beautiful scenery and location. The Fire Engine has a parking area very close which meant it was really easy to unpack/pack everything up. There is a great play area for the kids just outside as well, in addition to the larger play area in the woods. My son loved the swing, ping pong table and Guinea pig world. The Fire Engine itself was fantastic. Clean beautifully presented with lots of attention to detail and fun elements (even the door handles are fire engines!). The shower had good pressure, the beds are so comfy and the induction hob made cooking so quick and easy. The best thing though, are the onsite team. They were just lovely to deal with and really took the time to make my son feel welcome as well. There were no issues whilst we were there, but I feel that I would have been in good hands, should there have been. We also loved the Fairy Forest School as well. It was a magical addition to a brilliant stay.

Blackberry wood rules! One of the best campsites in the uk and probably the best reachable from London in a reasonable time. Within easy reach of the glitz of Brighton and the South Downs nature and views, plus several pubs. The site is quiet, the pitches are private and campfires add to the fun. Washing up, showers and toilet facilities are clean and there are plenty of them. The staff are helpful and the shop and visiting food vans mean a break from the gas stove. Great fun for older and younger campers alike. Highly recommended.

“Magic, Wonderland. I've never seen a treehouse like it. A stunning handmade creation fairytale castle up in the sky, the whole space is just magical!”
