The gravel crunches underfoot as you arrive at a country club tucked into the Sussex Weald, where manicured lawns meet the edge of Ashdown Forest and the air smells faintly of cut grass and old woodland.
This one's for families after a bit of comfort with their camping, or couples who want a touring base that feels more resort than field. Caravans and campervans are welcome, and there are camping pods if you'd rather skip the tent pegs — it's that mix of outdoor stay with country club facilities on the doorstep. You're right on the border of Ashdown Forest, Pooh Bear country, so it's lovely for dog walks through heathland and pine, though you'll need to ask about the dog policy when you book.
Expect a polished, organised vibe rather than wild camping — this is a hotel and country club first, so pitches come with access to broader resort amenities. Campfires need checking on arrival. It's a practical choice if you want the woods nearby but a hot shower and a bit of polish back at base.
