About Hastings 1066
Situated on the A2100 in the small Hamlet of Telham between Hastings and Battle, the site is ideally located for exploring East Sussex. Nestled just a 15 minute drive from glorious beaches like St. Leonards On Sea, you will be spoilt for choice when it comes to days out! The site offers just five 10m x 10m non electric grass pitches across its expansive two acres. Each pitch welcomes up to six guests, allowing tents only. If you're looking for a camping holiday, without having to worry about pitching up your tent, then one of the site's pre-erected bell tents could be perfect. The site has a 3m tent for up to two guests, along with a larger 5m bell tent for up to six. The bell tents each come unfurnished so you'll need to bring all of the usual camping equipment, just without the tent! The adult-only site welcomes guests only over the age of 16. Being on a working smallholding means you can meet the site's many animals including horses and chickens, but this does therefore mean dogs are not allowed in the camping area at all. Just over the road from the site is a wonderful pub called The Black Horse, perfect for evenings out enjoying a big meal and a couple of glasses of wine with just a short walk back to your pitch. If you are looking for that traditional camping experience, the site has a range of fire pits to hire, great for toasting marshmallows. BBQs are also welcome, as long as they are raised from the ground.
Hastings 1066 is open from 15/03 to 30/10.
Site facilities include toilets and fresh running water. Please note, there are no shower facilities.
There is an honesty shop on site, cash free using a QR code for payment.
The Black Horse pub serves a range of alcohol as well as food, located just opposite the site, a couple of minutes' walk from the entrance. For picking up the essentials, Co-op in Battle is a five minute drive away.

We had SUCH a lovely time at Hastings 1066 glamping/camping site. We visited the local pub and had the most delish meal. Met the owner of the site, who recommended things to do, and was super helpful. Only thing to make it better would be a shower. The compost toilets were wonderful and so environmentally friendly. We met the horses and the furry fat cat at the local pub too! x
A great night out!

A well located and friendly campsite for a quick getaway. As described in the description, the facilities are basic but very clean and well maintained with a small honesty shop. I was passing through so only stayed one night. As I missed the entrance, called the owner who was extremely helpful, friendly and relaxed. Also gave me some great tips on places to visit in the area. Would definitely recommend and stay again. The negatives? Perhaps clearer signage for the entrance (sat nav was saying it was on the same side as the pub-it's not!).The pitch I chose was very close to the main road but the traffic did calm down during the night.
Great spot

Great price, great spot. It was the weather that pushed us out, so we didnt get to experience the pub across the road, but have heard good things!
