Evergreen Farm Woodland Campsite, near East Grinstead. Surprisingly remote and rural feel, huge pitches (we had 9 tents on ours as we were a large group, two of which were big tunnel tents) set in well-separated woodland glades, each one with a fire pit. Very friendly welcome and they were happy to freeze ice blocks for us overnight and bring them back to us next morning.
There are a couple of quirks though.... No running water on site, so there are (beautifully clean) composting toilets and no showers. An ample supply of water is delivered to your pitch every morning by quad bike. The fire was very useful to generate a supply of hot water for washing up. There is no access to the pitches by car, so you leave you car near the entrance and you and all your gear are transported to your pitch by the aforementioned quad bike and trailer. Great fun, until you have to strike camp in the pouring rain as we did and try to keep everything dry under a groundsheet.
A really lovely, quiet, back to basics site, within about an hour's drive from South London.
