Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.

We offer peaceful, back to basics camping on 33 acres of land in the beautiful South Downs village of Kingston.

We have an onsite wood-fired sauna and an honesty shop filled with delicious Lovebrook Produce, as well as Direct access to the South Downs Way, for amazing hiking and biking. The 8 grassy tent pitches are spread over a large field with composting loo's, a warm shower and a sink with running water, so there’s a firm back-to-basics vibe. We also offer firepits and wood buddles, Perfect for sizzling sausages or roasting marshmallows! Things to do...

The campsite was in a beautiful location and was very well kept! Lots of space so you weren’t too close to other campers and it was really quiet. Would definitely stay again.

Lovely back to basics site

Tent

If you're looking for no frills, peace and quiet, great views (better than the photos) and access to walks then this is a great campsite. The pitches feel private - well spaced out and long grass in between. The facilities are basic (only x2 compost toilets and a cold water sink) but this is as described on the listing.
