What a find.

Really loved this site. For us with dog we could not have asked for more. The wardens are really lovely welcoming and helpful. The pitches are big and the facilities ( no showers or toilets ) are great. You walk out of the back gate straight onto the Downs Link with 90 miles of great walking to choose from. Its lovely and quiet at the weekends. We arrived late on a Friday afternoon and had about an hour of noise from the neighbouring factory loading bay but come 5pm all was quiet. We wont make it back before it closes this year but without doubt I can foresee more than one visit here next year.

What a quiet gem!

We stayed for three nights last week and thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet of the site. It has only 33 pitches, no toilet/shower block and is run by volunteers. We had a lovely warm welcome. Our pitch was handy for the facilities, ie the water, waste and rubbish bins. That area was clean and very well kept. The village is only a 10 minute walk away and there is a shop (under new management) and a pub, The Red Lyon which has a beer garden round the back. Children and dogs are welcome. The main draw for us to this site was its proximity to the cycle trail which was right next to the site and is an old railway line covering the route from the South downs to the Notrth downs. There is also a regular bus service from the stops at the end of the approach road to the site and they provided a means of going to Horsham and Guildford. I mentioned before that the site is run by volunteers from the club. They keep the site immaculate and obviously love their job as they were so friendly and informative. All in all a great site and one that we shall return to.

Lovely site, great volunteer wardens

This is a lovely, quiet site in a picturesque corner of Sussex. If you are looking for a bit of peace and quiet, this is the place to go and at a fraction of the cost of sites like Sheepcote Valley (Brighton). The Downslink footpath/cycleway is right next to the site so plenty of walking available. A couple of miles up the track is Rudgwick where you will find the Milk Churn cafe and Firebird Brewery, both highly recommended. We also visited Amberley Museum about half an hour drive away, and Leith Hill which is the highest point in SE England and supposedly you can see 14 counties on a clear day. Finally, a word of praise for the excellent work done by the wardens who are all volunteers on this site so we all owe them our gratitude for keeping this wonderful site going.

Lovely location

Located close to the village of Slinfold which is well worth walking to if only for the local pub. Or you could cycle along the Downs Link to a great little cafe called the Churn which also makes its own cheese, cross from the cafe to the small industrial site (don't be put off by this) to find the Firebird Brewery which will extend a very friendly welcome. Here you ca tase the craft beers and take some home. What a lovely clean site, in a great location for walking and cycling. It's quite a narrow site but there is still plenty of room between pitches. Very friendly and helpful wardens.

Why book a no facilities site and then moan?

I noticed a moan about this site having no facilities! That's one of the reasons I book these little sites. The approach road has a couple of slight holes in too but no worse than the potholes all over the country. I enjoyed my stay the wardens were great and its a good site for dog owners. It would be good if some dogs we're kept a bit quieter though. I have three and they barked once! They all bark at home but they know better when camping, they get put in the van with the blinds drawn so they dont see anything to bark at! QED. Nice walks on the old railway line that runs past the site. It is a very pretty part of the country and lots of interesting places to visit. I went to the wonderful Smokery in Edburton under the downs for some very good smoked produce.

Nice but Noisy

In many ways this is a good non facilities campsite, Nice friendly wardens, good location, tiny site which is well laid out with plenty of birdlife showing. Plenty of Supermarkets, pubs and restaurants in the vicinity. The big drawback for me was the noise of aircraft and the adjacent industrial estate which started at about 6am and continue throughout the day. The time between 11 pm and 6 am was peaceful. I don’t think I will be returning to Slinford

Quiet and excellent

Lovely little site, handy for Downs Link cycleway. Very helpful wardens. Nice and quiet. Motorhome has facilities so toilet block not necessary. The Club should have more sites like this.

Lovely Site

Fab site. Yes it has no toilets or showers but that is fine with us we prefer to use our own. Easily accessible. 10 minute walk into a nice village. Great cycling track on the door step. Very clean and friendly wardens who are volunteers I believe. Will definitely go back.

Perfect for us

This is a great little site and ideal for how we tend to use our caravan, no showers etc, the per night price reflects that though, we don't often use on site facilities anyway so it's nice not to have to pay for something you don't need. Has a feel of a large CL about it. We are quite local but still use the site to try out a new van or just for a short weekend away, great for walking or cycling, some lovely local pubs which are easy to get to. If you want the services of a large site it's not really for you but for a bit of peace and quiet it's ideal...

Hidden treasure!

If we had read the reviews for this site, we would probably have found it easier! We stayed one night, what a lovely site - the location on the Downs Link & walking distance to the village made it an excellent base. All the other guests were so very friendly and spoke so highly of the site (we were the couple with the young rescue puppy - Stitch :o)) We have never met 'volunteer wardens' before, but what an absolute delight they were - friendly, great tips for other sites and even invited us to watch the Royal Wedding with them & share tea & Pimms. We are checking the diary already for dates to return.
