We are located at BN7 3HZ which will take you to Telscombe village. We can be found just off the Lewes to Piddinghoe C7 road. Turn off at Southease village up Gorhams Lane. Proceed to the far end of the village and the campsite is on your left next to Telscombe Tye
Our picturesque campsite is located just off the beautiful South Downs Way, offering pitches for tents and camper vans only, (sorry no caravans or motor-homes). The site is within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with breathtaking views over the Downland and sea. Where ever you pitch you are guaranteed a view and peaceful stay. It's also only a 20 minute stroll from the gorgeous Sussex coast and within easy reach of Brighton and many other attractions.
The site is purposefully basic but does offer a flushing toilet facility with 2 basic showers. A washing up area and 2 drinking water taps. Please do not expect power showers though, due to our our location right on top of the downs! Fire pits can be hired to create a camp fire or barbecue (camp fires directly on the ground are NOT permitted). Logs & fire lighting packs can be purchased along with breakfast & barbecue hampers & marshmallows. The campsite is dog & family friendly and you are able to park next to your chosen pitch. This is an ideal location for walkers, cyclists and riders, offering them a reduced rate.
PLEASE NOTE showers are NOT in use for 2020 due to Covid 19 hygiene regulations
Stud Farm is a mixed working organic farm. Previously a horse stud and home of a Grand National winner in 1902. It is now a working sheep farm, along with pigs, cattle and arable farming. Race horses are still trained here under the trainer Camilla Poulton. We produce our own lamb, pork and a range of sausages & pork burgers, all available for purchase and along with our free-range eggs can be supplied to hungry campers! The beautiful farm house offers B&B with equine companions welcome. Perfect for a ride along the South Downs way. Also look out for our open day running every year on the Sun & Mon of the first May bank holiday.
We are based in lovely Telescombe, a historic and picturesque village recorded in the Domesday Book. It is nestled at the foot of the South Downs with Telscombe Tye to the South. It houses the ancient church of St.Laurence which dates back to the twelfth century. Stud Farm forms part of the village along with the village Hall and houses such as The Manor and the Old Rectory. It has less than 50 inhabitants and therefore still remains quiet and unspoilt.
