About Stud Farm
Take in the fabulous views over the Downs from your pitch at Stud Farm. If you're a traditional camper looking for some good ol' fashioned camping with basic facilities, to explore the sweeping countryside, the site has you covered. Pitches are on grass and suitable for tents and small campervans only (max 6 metres). Sorry, no caravans or motorhomes here. They are marked, allowing campers to choose which pitch they would like. The site welcomes everyone from backpackers to small campers. And, for large groups, the camping field can be hired for your gathering with an advanced booking. Well behaved dogs welcome but must be kept on a lead. Do note all under 21s must be accompanied by an adult.
Camping is available from 17th March to 29th October. Glamping is available 3rd April to 24th September.
Facilities include a toilet and shower block with four toilets and two large showers and a washing up area. Fire pits are available to hire. Horse liveries are also available if you're arriving with yours.
Campers can purchase a range of organic meat from the farm including sausages and burgers, breakfast hampers and basic supplies. It's also just a 20 minute walk to the seafront, where wild swimming in the sea is possible. Three good pubs within a half hour's walk.

Lovely, quiet, tranquil spot for back to basics but with the luxury of a slightly erratic showers. Facilities were spotlessly clean. Views amazing, you can either see sea or rolling hills. Good spot for a 30/40 mins walk cross country to Saltdean Beach. Will be back.

Definitely would like to come back! Stayed for 2 nights. Very clean. Lovely host. Great fire pits to rent. Good shower and washing up facilities. The view is brilliant. Nice walk to the coast and into town if you exit left out of the site. Plenty of green spaces for dogs! Thankyou!

No hot water on shower and water supply was intermittent. Also, no lights in shower area. Also, disappointed to pay £16 for fire starters when they can be bought in Newhaven for just £2. Price for stay was not too bad. Fun fire pits for hire. Great location.
