Blackberry Wood Campsite is camping with a difference. Don't expect a big field chock a block with…read morevarious tents. Here you hire your own personal glade in the Wood complete with fire pit, cute carved benches and your personal cooking grate to knock up a truly rustic feast. The location is really beautiful and while you are in the country and will certainly need a car to reach to site, it's still close enough to Brighton (about 4 miles from Ditchling) to be easily accessible. Be warned though, this place is immensely popular and weekend stays are already fully booked for the summer season of 2010. You can check for availability of glades on their website and you may get lucky and find a slot from a cancellation. The lady who runs the site lives in a caravan at the campsite, complete with chickens running about the place. She has a small shop with supplies including milk and firewood. There are also showers and proper toilets. If you don't feel like sleeping in a tent there are also a number of buses, Gypsy caravans and suchlike to hire for a more comfortable stay. The prices are reasonable and this is really a great way to camp, whilst still retaining the magic of the experience. A real gem and unique approach to a great British pastime. I cannot recommend this place enough!

From the owner: Our family-friendly park sits alongside the River Thames in the picturesque village of Hurley…read morebetween Henley-on-Thames and Marlow and has been run by four generations of the same family since 1926. With direct access to the River Thames and the Thames Path we are perfect for lovers of the river and walkers alike. For those with a boat or canoe we have two slipways and for those without we have over a mile of river frontage for picnics. With the lush green countryside of the Thames Valley all around, red kites circling above and the river traffic gliding past it is hard to believe we are only an hour outside London. We offer a happy, family-friendly atmosphere and only accept bookings from families and couples. We are proud that many of our caravanners and campers return year after year and recommend us to family and friends. In fact some of our customers who visited us as children now bring their own grandchildren!

This is a really friendly camping and caravanning club site. It has no toilets or showers so it is…read moreessential that you have your own. As we only have a folding camper we made good use of the toilets in the Sainsburys in town. Possibly because of the lack of facilities the two times that we have been there have been very few children which does mean that the site is quiet except for the parakeets which are quite noisy in the mornings. Do be aware that there is quite a long narrow road approaching the campsite. Could be awkward at busy times.
