About Campfire Weekends
Running at weekends only, the site is situated at Great Danegate Farm within the High Weald.
Pitch up in this peaceful corner of the countryside on the camping field surrounded by sweeping views and bordered by woodland. Pitches are not allocated, meaning you're free to choose your favourite spot on the field.
All pitches are on grass and for tents only, giving you plenty of space and time to roam the countryside via the local footpaths and bridleways. To help keep this a tranquil base, the age limit here is 21 and over.
There's a communal campfire for toasting marshmallows. Private campfires are allowed on wood burning grates raised off the ground, if you don't wish to stray too far from your tent (and you can hire the kit you need on site).
Well behaved dogs are allowed on the site.
The site is open from 24th May to 8th September for weekends.

A note from the site themselves...
Campfire Weekends was set up on our family run farm in 2018. Run by all the family but staffed, in the main, by four very welcoming, friendly, and entrepreneurial teenagers, all dead set on making your stay as relaxing as possible.
Based in a seven acre field in the middle of our farm you really are away from it all. It's free pitching on the camping field, but we limit our numbers to around 30 people per night, so you really don't have to worry about space.
Gorgeous and genuinely far-reaching views of the East Sussex countryside are plentiful, and you really are back to nature at our site. We pride ourselves on the peace and quiet of the area and being able to enjoy nature at its best, so we ask that you in coming here are here to do the same. We look forward to hosting you. The Campfire Weekends Team.

An absolutely beautiful site, with plenty of space for privacy and peace.
Everything had been very well thought through - the toilets were clean and well kept and cleaned out regularly. There were washing up facilities and running water. Being able to hire a fire pit was such a great touch - we really loved this, it made the whole experience of camping brilliant (toasting marshmallows in front of your tent in a beautiful field - exactly what you want really!). Communication was great and efficient.
We can't wait to come back.

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesJul 2023
Campfire weekends have created a tranquil and beautiful little site with limited but perfect facilities. Everything was cleverly and simply arranged, clean and accessible. Just right if you want to escape with a small tent and no small people.

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesJul 2023
The hosts were very accommodating and easy to contact. We arrived late and we're not able to meet them on entry, but that was no problem as we could call them and figure out where to set up.
