Dawn breaks over the South Downs with skylarks rising from the fields around this working farm site, and that proper countryside quiet you don't get closer to the coast.
Drews Farm suits campers who want a straightforward, no-frills pitch in proper West Sussex farming country — tent campers, tourers and motorhomes are all welcome on grass that's been grazed by sheep between bookings. It's a good shout for families who like space to roam and couples after a peaceful night under dark skies, plus there's room for your van to spread out without being on top of your neighbour. The South Downs Way runs nearby, so walkers and cyclists often use this as a base for tackling that famous chalk ridge.
You'll find basic facilities onsite — toilets and showers — kept simple and clean. Campfires are worth asking about when you arrive, as policies can vary depending on conditions and the time of year. Expect a working farm atmosphere, genuinely rural, with the kind of quiet that makes you remember why you came camping in the first place.
