About Buckhurst Campsite
A spacious and family-friendly site in a great countryside location near Sedlescombe in Sussex. Within easy reach of the beach at Hastings (15 minute drive) and historic Battle (10 minute drive). Spread across two big fields, the site is home to spacious non electric grass pitches for tents, caravans and motorhomes. Modern facilities, including hot showers, are nearby. For those looking for added comfort, hire a bell tent or Buckhurst, the tourer, which is pitched up ready on site. The Bluebell Camping Pods are beautifully decorated and feature a double bed with bedding and a small double futon, sleeping up to four. You will need to bring bedding for the futon. The pods come equipped with a kettle, cups, your own outdoor picnic bench and a fire pit to enjoy some al fresco dining. Please note that guests will need to bring their own cooking equipment and will have access to shared facilities. Campfires and well-behaved dogs are welcome.
Buckhurst Campsite is open from 01/05 to 30/10.
Facilities include a toilet and shower block with warm running showers. There are also washing-up facilities and a shared fridge freezer available. Electric points for charging phones are also available at a charge.

Good showers and bathroom. Fridge and freezers available, campfires allowed, and very friendly and helpful staff. Also have a shop that sells essentials and a tuck shop for coffees and food in the morning. Will definitely be going back.
