We have just spent a week on the site and had a great holiday, our children are aged between 12 and 3yrs.
The owners were very friendly and showed us where to pitch our tent.
There were just 3 toilets and 2 showers but they were always clean and there were never queues for them. 20p for the showers gave you 4 minutes so not bad and the staff cleaned them a couple of times a day, there was a family shower as well.
The shop on site was handy and the kids were always popping down there with their pennies to buy some sweets! There is a washing machine and tumble drier if you needed them and 3 sinks to wash up in.
The park was great for the children and ours were there most of the day or they were going to see the animals which was nice.
All in all we had a great time and would definitely go again.
Just had a week here at Cobbs Hill Farm. Ok. Owners seem very friendly, even helping to make sure our caravan was level when we first arrived.
Facilities are pretty good. Showers & Toilets cleaned often. Washing machine & dryer should you need one.
There are quite a few seasonal tourers on site which we found an issue when we first arrived as they didn't seem to quite like us having our van on there site. (even down to parking issue). We parked our van by our awning, when we went out and came back the guy next door moved his car to put it where ours was ! when we asked them where we were supposed to park as we had a car the other side of our van too we were told 'they need to move as Barry (site owner) likes car, caravan and awning'. Visit to reception and it was sorted. Just was an issue that put a dampner on things. Maybe we should of been told when the guy helped level the van up about parking but the lady owner told us they wasn't that strict on it. That's fine but not at £23 a night and having to argue where to park our car
Kids - my boys are 12 and 8 and were bored most the time. Park was very small and not much to do. Some animals on site but you couldn't get near them.
You need a car to get anywhere really as Eastbourne and Hastings a short journey away. Small shop on site but they don't do much. I believe you can order newspapers but this will cost you 5p to get them from the village shop.
Dog friendly site and Cooden beach is fab for the dogs which is only about 10 mins drive away.
Would I come back. ???? No I don't think so. Based on there isn't much to do here for the kids.
Site in general is clean and pleasant and quiet at night, so if you want a quiet site then maybe this would suit you but for kids. Be prepared for them to be bored. Costs were average £23 per night and an extra £2 for bank hol monday :0/
Nice quiet camp site, with four flat fields. Some hard standings. Some static caravans as well.
Fairly cheap £15/night with hook-up (low season).
The shower block was clean. Has a family/disabled shower which anybody can use if unoccupied. Good idea as charge 20p for a 4 min shower but me and my husband managed to both shower for 20p ! Good idea for saving water though.
Bit of a hike to Bexhill(1hr 15min walk). Nearest pub and shops in Sidley about 1/2 hr walk.
Owners have little maps with local footpaths.
Nice play area for kids and small menagerie on site.
This was the 3rd year in a row that My wife and I plus our 2 kids have stayed on the site. We have also had two other families plus their kids with us too each time.
Each year has been great and we will certainly be going again next year without fail.
The site is quite small but has plenty of room for the kids (ranging from 3 to 7 years old) to ride their bikes and scooters around.
The park seems to cater for their needs too as they are always at it, especially when its bed time!
The surrounding trees really shelter the site well from wind meaning you can happily relax and cook without things getting blown all over the place.
The owners are both very nice and generally escort you to your pitch especially if its your first or second time there.
The animals on site are also a hit with the kids and are a place they have to visit every morning and every night.
The campsite facilities are always very clean and convenient to all pitches.
The nearby beaches and local facilities are also well worth a visit with plenty of stuff for the kids to do.
So, all in all, we are a group of parents in our 30's, that all have young children. We stay in our tents and caravans, get a bit more camping equipment each year, and love cobbs hill!
Booked last minute, the owners were friendly and accommodating for us first timers.
The site - divided by hedges, very few of us there so lots of space and most seemed to have electric hookups. Mature trees and seemed generally in a pretty good state for so late in the season. The grass looked a bit run down, but then so does my lawn at this time of year. A separate dog exercise area was good.
For kids - the play ground has a mini balance assualt course, a slide, a roller, a basket swing and two other swings and a frame with nets and rope climbers within it's own separate field. Agree that probably suited best to 4/5+ but my 3 year old found plenty to do (but would have been out of his depth if it was busy). Around the farm are a pig, two ponies, chickens which the kids loved. The chickens produce the eggs for the small shop on site (milk etc)
Facilities - first impressions were that it was a bit worn around the edges generally but very clean. There is a wash area with two washing machines and sinks etc. The showers areas aren't heated but there is a family shower and washing room, men and women which take 20 p to use. The water was hot and the facilities clean.
Location - don;t be put off by the outskirts of bexhill when you drive from the site, keep going and it's nice. Big stony beach, coffee shops, promenade and a reasonable town centre that feel safe and look clean and well kept.
Friendly around the place and plenty of parking. There's a large leisure complex (supermarkets, bowling etc) around 5 minutes away. Search for blackberry farm on google which is close, bodiam castle etc are all reasonably near and obvioulsy battle and hastings.
The grounds are lovely with farm animals such as horses, chickens, goats, rabbits. The owners are very friendly, helpful and welcoming. There is a shop in reception fairly priced which stock the essentials, bread, milk, toiletries sweets etc.
We stayed in the family field which has huge trees all the way round and blocks the winds nicely. Next to the family field is a wooden playground which is very well kept and up to date, my children had so many hours of fun in there.
The toilet blocks are nice, clean and well looked after and the showers are very good too. There is a family/ disabled room too which has a shower and toilet in the same room.
There is also a covered washing up room which has hot water and drying racks. We found these very useful.
Hastings is a short drive away and so are the shops, supermarkets and pubs etc.
We can't wait to come back to cobbs hill farm the other campers are friendly and it's a lovely place in general :0)
We only camped for one night, to practice with our tent before a longer trip, but we are so glad that we chose this campsite, and are planning on going back next year for a longer visit.
The owners were very friendly, even when we asked them to check the electric hook-up, and it turned out it was our bulb that was blown! Our 19 month old loved the animals, although the children's play area could do with some toddler friendly equipment. It looked great fun for slightly older kids though.
The toilet block was clean and had good facilities. As we were only there for 1 night I didn't use the shower, but it looked clean, and there's a hairdryer in the ladies block. There's a separate washing block for washing up and some laundry facilities.
Bexhill-on-Sea is lovely - a stony beach with sand a few metres down the tideline. There's a promenade, and shops with beach stuff and ice creams. Bexhill also has a Sainsbury's which is open on Bank Holidays - good for replacing lightbulbs!
We can also recommend an excellent pub on the main road between Bexhill and Pevensey, called the 'Lamb Inn'. Really good family friendly atmosphere and great food. Beer garden.
Overall, 1 night not enough, and we are looking forward to a return visit.
We spent 3 days here over the August bank holiday weekend. As you’d expect for the bank holiday the site was full and busy. We liked the site, it’s generally well kept and low key.
Pro’s
- Our pitch was a good size.
- The fields are divided up by trees and hedges (I can't stand sites that are just a huge field)
- The tents weren’t as crammed in as I’d seen at other sites.
- Our kids really liked the animals and the playground.
- The individual fields aren't lit at night, meaning that we had some lovely starry nights.
Con’s
- Our pitch was a bit muddy; in fairness it had been the wettest week of the wettest August for a few years (and we were given a choice of a drier pitch).
- The site was fairly noisy, but it was a bank holiday weekend. However it was quiet by 11pm.
This is our 2nd camping trip to a 'proper' campsite (ie. Not a festival) and found it a well laid out and friendly site.
The was a field for caravans/motorhomes, another field that was mixed with tents (presumably for groups with different units who wanted to be together) and a tent field. Electric hook up available too.
The pitch as level and a good size. We were able to get our 7m x 5m Arkansas 7 on it (with a small daily supplement). From what I saw there was hardstanding for motorhomes etc.
The toilet block is at the front of the 1st field but still not too far for other fields. It was clean, warm and tidy. Although there were only 2 showers in each of the mens and ladies, I never queued and I was showering around 8. 30am each morning. The showers are 20p for 4 minutes and I managed to shower and wash (shoulder length) hair with one 20p!
There is a separate family shower area which was great.
The kids loved the playground and spent every moment there when we were on site. They made friends with lots of children which was really nice. They also like the small farm area where they could see the animals.
It is a really nice uncomercialised campsite with a small shop where you can order your morning paper and hire freezer blocks (10p).
He site is well positioned for the local area and we even ventured to Camber beach (45 mins) to spend the day there and it was gorgeous.
We chose to stay here for 1 night as we had a caravan booked in Hastings, and this helped add a day into the holiday and take a day off the journey.
The weather always helps, but I honestly would have been happy to stay on this site for another 3 days instead. The layout of the site is really good, the tent section is fantastic and runs pretty much runs east to west, so you get the sun all day long, even if you pitched up against the conifers, you don't spend the day in shade. Mentioning the trees, the perimet of the farm land (in the tent section) is tree lined of some sort, so you get pretty decent reduction in any winds. The tent pitches are located in between the children's play area, which is really nicely boundried and the dog exercise area, which for us was perfect.
The toilets clean, didn't use the showers, there were only 2, but the site didn't look busy enough for that to be a concern.
Really happy with this site, it's up there with the best. And for such a reasonable price too. Full marks Cobbs Hill, happily recommend to all. Great for Kids, Great for Dogs, so mum and dad can rest up. Possibly the best site we've been to. Oh, and you get a 3G mobile reception too.
This site was lovely. Right from the time I booked and spoke to the owners I was made to feel welcome. I wasn’t sure what time we could get there and have been told by a few people some sites don’t let you on after 8-9pm. I was told no problem what time we turn up but might have a bit of a moan if they were in bed. They have an area for you to park up if you do turn up in the middle of the night.
It's been a long time since we have been camping (we go fishing for weekend in the bivvy but not the same). The site was beautiful, very clean and very tidy. Grass was cut short and well looked after. I thought having a separate dog exercising field was a brilliant idea as we had our aging dog with us. Being able to have tents and caravans in the same area and having the choice for electric hook up or not in the same field is a good idea. We had no children with us so chose a field away from the play area. Walking the dog and seeing the play area always in use, so there must have the right play equipment in it for the children. Didn’t take much notice of the animals at first but got drawn to them coming back from the reception, had to stop and say goodbye to the pig when we left, felt like we made a connection, reminded me of my children going through the fridge looking for food. The pile of bricks for you to use to put throw away bar-b-ques is an excellent idea.
We were lucky with the weather but must remember not to camp so close to the trees as we didn’t get the sun on our tent until 10. 30am, which is really stupid of us as we had pick of the whole field to camp when we got there on midday Thursday. It took about 10 mins to get to the sea front. Bexhill-on-sea is very nice, clean and tidy. It’s not far from Hastings which if you have children with you it is a lovely place to go. I found it hard work walking on the pebbly beach but a good work out for the legs.
I would use this site again and highly recommend it for anybody, young, old (no big slopes or lots of steps), with or without children. The toilets are very clean and well stocked on loo roll, the showers were nice and hot and the hair dryer was a good one. It had a full lengthen mirror in the ladies (don’t know about the men’s). The washing up area was very clean and tidy. Didn’t use the iron andboard that’s available, I don’t at home why would I on holiday. I liked the idea of the notice board in the wash room and the info on it. Thought the idea of being able to ordering a take away and having it’s delivered to the site was excellent, a good excuse to sit at the entrance of the site and chilling while waiting for it.
We had a lovely long weekend away, a much deserved rest.
Visited this weekend, on recommendation from a friend - and she was spot on. A lovely site, nicely laid out with excellent facilities. I'm not going to deny that we're more 'glampers' than 'campers' but a warm shower and clean toilet facilities make any camper happy. This was our first camp of the season, designed to test all our equipment and get our two young boys used to it again - and they loved it - there is a really good play area, lots of space, and a great little far area, with Matilda the pig as the star attraction! Seriously though, great value, not too crowded, even at peak times I am assured, and we will definitely be returning. Just one tip however - consider the location of your pitch relative to the path of the sun - the site has some beautifully mature trees, but this does come at a small price because these can provide too much shade in some locations, making it a bit colder and damp in the mornings. That said, overall it was a lovely site with lots to offer.
Wonderful site in rural Sussex - we stayed for 2 nights over the BH weekend. Kids loved seeing the animals and we were all fond of Matilda the pig before we left! Lots of space for the children to play - many friends made over the weekend.
Site very well maintained - extremely hard to criticise but if pressed I would have liked the ability to recycle glass, cans and cardboard - we're so used to sorting the rubbish at home it felt wrong putting it in the bin! (
Even though site was quite full I only queued a short while for a shower (think the 4 minute/20p cost keeps the length of the showers down).
We visited Bexhill - nice and quiet, good sand when the tide went out and excellent for throwing stones when tide in! Great for kids to scooter / roller-skate along the promenade - much less busy than other resorts and promenade easily wide enough for pedestrians and kids on scooters.
Recommend Minnie Bertha's fish and chips on the seafront. Certain we'll go back here (note - far end of the tent field got very windy!)
Arrived on a balmy hot April Good Friday and although campsite was quite full, the site had a lovely chilled out atmosphere, and really quiet at night.
Pitch was a hardstanding which was great for our motorhome, a hedge dividing us from the field behind. Our hook-up didn't work at first and the kind warden came and sorted it out, the fuse had blown.
The children's play area was great, lovely equipment for children to play on. There is also a dog walk on site which was great, plenty big enough for letting our big dog off for a run around.
Toilet facilities - clean but there are only 2 showers and although I never experienced a queue this could be as I had my shower at 8.30pm. Just feel another toilet block maybe handy. Washing up facilities adequate, with various site seeing brochures, washing machine etc also in there.
The reception has a few essentials like bread, milk, butter and bacon and a few other things like crisps, but not much else, so make sure you have most things.
There are some farm animals as you enter the site which my 11 year old loved.
If you get the chance go to Cooden Beach, dogs allowed to the left of the beach. Its a lovely quiet place, just a beach and a rather lovely Cooden Beach Hotel which does wonderful food. You also have Hastings and Bexhill not far away if you want more life.
We chose this site for our first camping trip in many years and the first ever with our three large dogs, we all loved it. A warm, friendly welcome and told to 'pitch anywhere in that field'. We had plenty of space on a level, flat field. The dog exercise area was large and, though not entirely securely fenced, our three had a great time charging around off lead and playing with other dogs when in there. Dog waste bins are provided.
The site is clean, the toilets and showers (20p) were spotless and modern. The small on site shop in the reception area provided the essentials.
We were very happy with this site and will return in the spring.

We have just spent a week on the site and had a great holiday, our children are aged between 12 and 3yrs.
