We had an extremely pleasant 3 day stay at this site. The weather was kind which always helps, but the ambience of the site in the area we stayed was excellent. The only downside as far as I am concerned is that, out of 45 or so grass pitches, 35 are seasonal and some of them look a bit ropey to say the least. It looks as if some of them are almost treating the pitch as residential with masses of clutter spread around and multiple pets. The access to the site is also a bit dodgy with very narrow approach roads with overhanging bushes and plenty of opportunity to drop a wheel into a ditch! Beware.
Great Place but needs upgrade
Really love this site and clearly the wardens do all they can to be as perfect as possible. BUT
The site and pitches needs a serious upgrade, thinks like the pitches haven't had new shingle in years and aren't wide enough for modern vans, awnings and a car, waste areas need a complete overhaul.
The club can do better and without spending a huge sum of money could make the pitches and waste areas much better.
But as said beautiful location, quiet and warden work hard with what they have. My stars of the facilities is a reflection of the upgrade works needed not the day to day cleaning or maintenance by wardens.
A great base for exploring the area
We spent 8 nights here during the Easter break (2023). The site is basic with a large open plan field or wooded area to choose from re pitches. Plenty of water and waste sites littered around the site and there is a communal Boules pitch available for use. We got a great pitch near to the water and N/S facing so we had the Sun on the awning all day. The site is lovely and quiet and is well located for exploring. We were able to get to Brighton, Hasting, Eastbourne and a great many National Trust properties in the are with ease (all within around 30 mins drive). The water pressure is about the only thing we found to be a little frustrating as it did take around 6-7 minutes to fill an Aqua Roll. That said we never found ourselves in a queue and knowing it took a while we simply enjoyed the peace and tranquillity as we waited :).
Peaceful stay
I love these 'no facilities' sites! Why pay for things I am not going to use? I admit it is not everybody who wants to use their onboard facilities but for those of us who do, these sites are perfect and being a solo caravanner they often work out cheaper than a CL. Broomfield Farm site is a little gem with plenty of space and a good choice of pitches. The area is good for walking, visiting National Trust properties or the beaches of the South Coast. I managed all three in my stay despite the weather being less than spring like. I will certainly return.
Little Gem
First time at this site and it didn’t disappoint. I love these simple sites with no toilet block and wish the club had more as I always use my on board facilities so don’t want to pay for things I won’t use. Plenty of room with a choice of open area or amongst the trees. Despite poor weather I had a very pleasant stay and the site is well placed for countryside or coast.
Amazingly peaceful - you won't be disappointed
We spent 2 nights here this last bank holiday weekend.
A wonderful location in the countryside & absolutely no road noise could be heard in the location at all. A real escape from the area we live in.
No facilities other than chemical waste, water & electricity, but lots of service areas & bins. Why pay a premium for a washblock when you have it all to hand in your wagon?
A beautiful public footpath walk to Chiddingly with a lovely pub.
I loved this site & would not hesitate to return in the future.

Boules tournament
Spent weekend at this site , it was the annual boules match and a raffle for charity.
What a friendly happy bunch , laughter and stop to chat .
Site well kept .
Quiet and relaxing .
All for £17 a night can’t be bad .

Lovely site but careful on the narrow roads
Had a couple of nights here in a lovely secluded woodland pitch. Would definitely come again, especially at only £17/night. Obviously there is a reason for the low price - no toilet block, but actually not a big problem for a self contained unit.
One comment about the motorhome service point - it wasn’t easy to get our grey water outlet over the drain, as the drain is in the middle of the pad!
Also, it was a pity we chose the weekend of “chiddfest” which apparently is an attempt by some raucous types to prevent anyone within five miles of Chiddingly getting any sleep before midnight. However, that’s something that neither the very helpful wardens or the club would be able to do anything about!
A place for Adventures
We stayed for four nights on this well kept site, the choice was between beautiful shaded woodland or open, sunny, spacious pitches facing the green.
Walks directly from the site, plenty to do and see locally.
Jubilee weekend
We went to Broomfield farm for a couple of nights over the jubilee weekend, and loved how peaceful it was, and how friendly the check in was, a lovely lady booked us in, very friendly, and made to feel relaxed, we had pitch 42, which was huge, cooked pizza in our pizza oven, and just relaxed,
On the sat we went and got involved in the jubilee celebrations, toast to the Queen, raffle, and laughs with strangers, was really good,
Highly recommended
