 Riverside Farm camping is next to the Downs Link. We cycled to Shoreham by Sea, and had a wonderful two nights stay. Ashley was extremely accommodating. And welcoming.
There is a large amount of space for families and the site is very quiet. We ate at the Fox Inn a short drive from the site, highly recommended.
Unfortunately due to COVID restrictions the one shower was closed and the two toilets were busy at peak times but this was a bank holiday weekend and it would probably be enough in normal times.
Thank you to Ashley and family for a wonderful stay.

A fantastic campsite to use if you're backpacking The Downs Link. Situated right on the path, its a lovely, peaceful site and Kevin the owner couldn't have been more helpful.
Although the showers were closed due to Covid restrictions, he rigged up a solar shower prior to our arrival and even helped me pitch my tent. Nothing was too much trouble and we even had two little tree stumps to sit on (Thank you Kevin!).
The toilets deserve a mention because they were spotless and brilliantly decorated and the washing up sinks and separate drinking water tap were really useful.
It's a short walk from the site to The Fox Inn where we had a lovely evening meal and there's a nearby Co-op where we were able to grab sandwiches etc for the following day's walk.
Some might argue that it's a little over-priced for backpackers who tend to arrive late and leave early (£30 for 2 small tents and £10 for the hire of the solar shower) but given Riverside's great location and fantastic customer service, I do believe it's worth every penny and would thoroughly recommend this site to anyone backpacking The Downs Link.

We stayed on site as two couples.
Ashley and Ryan were very wellcoming and made sure that we were happy with our pitch.
The site is beautiful and in an area of peaceful and quiet nature.
The North/South downs link runs alongside the site and we used it to access two great walks.
We used the Fox pub up the road for a main meal. £140 for 4 for 3 courses and plenty of drink. We also called into the Kings head for a lunchtime drink at the end of one of our walks which was nice, with a straight walk back down the Downs link way to the site.
There were only two loos on site which meant there was a bit of queuing but they were nice and qwerky.
I think they need some extra cold water stand pipes around.
The point is, would we come again? You bet!

We booked a last minute stay and the owners managed to fit us in. From the offset they were very welcoming and provided a lot of useful information about the local area, but also gave us space to enjoy the views.
There were two main camping areas that were a lot larger than expected, which allowed you to have your own space even on a busy bank holiday weekend.
No showering facilities due to COVID restrictions, which is under stable, but the toilets were kept clean.
Despite being on a county road it was in a good location as is next to two bridle paths which go in opposite directions connecting to Rudgwick and Slinford. This allows for safe walks and cycles to the pretty nearby towns.
Only thing is it could do with a nice sign en route to the farm as we did miss the sign off the country road once !
Lovely. Would definitely stay again

Relaxed & peaceful grass site with the river Arun flowing at the bottom of both fields.
Owners very welcoming & helpful but not intrusive.
Dog’s welcome on a lead.
Nightingales in full chorus at night, fantastic experience.
Downs Link cycle/walking path on the doorstep.
Beautiful part of Sussex, will return.

This lovely campsite is so peaceful, we only stayed one night, wish it had been more.
Not too busy, so there was plenty of space to enjoy the beautiful grounds and sit by the river.
The owners are very friendly and helpful and told us of local walks that we could go on from the site,
We will definitely be back to explore more of the area and enjoy the tranquility of this campsite.
We were impressed with our stay.

Arrived late to a very welcoming host Ashley, the site was busy but we were shown to our riverside pitch with masses of space between us and our neighbours.
Site was very quiet and surroundings lovely.
Location right on the Downs way means a short stroll to the village for pubs and a co op, or much longer walks through lovely countryside.
Didn’t use the COVID restricted wc area that was open but made use of the free water and chemical loo disposal.
Great site

Excellent location and setting with three open field aspects. Site owners very friendly and helpful, and leave you alone to enjoy your stay.
Covid restrictions reduced the facilities which were not reflected in the price. However you could not wish for a more relaxing place which at the same time allows young families the freedom enjoy a bit of old fashioned camping.
The site entrance is on a fast undulating section of the main road and could do with improved signage.
The Downs Link cycleway runs right alongside and crosses this road which the local authority have failed to warn motorists about.
A good place with scope to explore the area and walking distance to the local Co-op.

A really lovely place. Beautiful river running round it. Great walk right next door with Victorian bridge. Some horses, chickens and a sheep (lady baa baa) to visit and give some grass, the kids loved it.
Rustic and basic, quiet and peaceful.
Kevin, the owner, really friendly and welcoming, great to chat to, totally relaxed about exit and payment times. Clean toilet and easy electric hookup. Only 15 pounds
We definitely want to repeat, the only thing missing was a shower, soon to be put in says Kevin. Then it will be the definitive absolutely perfect campsite.
Thumbs up from us. :)

We have just spent 3 nights at this camp site.
We would consider ourselves still learners at the camping game being that this is only our 4th trip in about 2 years.
However, we always try to look for places which are just like this one, huge spacious areas, few facilities (or none in this case!) and lots of nature.
This site has water and chemical disposal and does have a toilet which is up the track through a gate in a little shed.
There are 2 big fields here which back onto the river, surrounded by trees, very rustic looking, lovely fresh smell of hay/grass, sounds of the fish in the river and birds tweeting etc. We saw a bat at dusk and heard an owl.
There is a little coop in Rudgewick which is about half a mile away but I wouldn't walk it personally because there is no pavement but you can walk into the village using the downs link. We walked along the downs link (just come out of the campsite and turn immediately right into the footpath) to Slinford but you can walk much further in either direction, its a disused railway and is a cycle route too, virtually flat.
There is a little road noise from the main A road and the odd flight over which could be quite loud at times but its handy for lots of different areas to visit.
The owners are friendly and helpful and unobtrusive, it was £8 per night and he said there weren't any strict rules on what time to leave which is a godsend to us as it seems to take us hours to pack up. Also no strict pitches which again is what we need as our set up is huge!
We would definitely visit again although I wouldn't like to go if there were rallies which I see are advertised as a facility.
