 We booked Cairds the week before as a last minute get away. Upon arrival we were a little disappointed how close to the road the site is. But it wasn’t too much of a problem and barely noticed any road noise.
The most shocking thing of all though was how much of a slope the field is on. It says slight slope in the description but honestly it was quite bad. We pitched our tent facing downwards so we weren’t upside down in bed, but it didn’t quite solve the issue as the bed would slide down the tent through the night anyway.
The kids thought it was great rolling out of bed down the tent each morning though. Much to our frustration because the carpet and blow up sofa would slide with them!
The facilities were satisfactory, clean, and the shower was HOT and powerful which was so nice. The outdoor sink for washing up was great fun for the kids overlooking the horses whilst we washed up each day.
There was nothing nearby exciting though, the road was a bit busy and I wouldn’t walk along it around the blind bends with kids to find a nearby walking route so we drove to Hastings and even to Dover one afternoon.
All in all - A very basic campsite, on quite a slope, very windy as its high up, great showers.

Small rural site in idyllic surroundings: though you must expect some country smells as well. Horses and stables in adjoining field.
All grass pitches with hook up available (may need a long lead). Two shower/toilet cabins and one washing up sink outside.
We did experience a problem with the smaller shower unit not giving hot water, but this we were told was a temporary problem. The larger shower unit was excellent.
Naomi answered my email messages very promptly and cleaned out the facilities each evening.
Parts of the field slope noticeably, especially pitches 9 & 10. The most level pitches 1-3 also back onto the road.
There is some traffic noise, mostly in the morning and evening rush hours, but plenty of bird song.
We had a pleasant stay, and £20 a night was good value.

Firstly, the site was not easily identified and the hanging sign facing the road was missing. It was self book in and no was around to greet us. We fended entirely for ourselves.
Whilst we were advised beforehand, due to COVID 19 there was only one shower and toilet, this had to be cleaned each time it was used. This was not a problem particularly when there was only a few people using the site. However come late week and weekend the numbers increased and to be honest there were too many people for one shower and toilet.
The size of the toilet, come shower cubical was too small. The toilet seat was broken and took 48 hours for it to be repaired. The power failed on the entire site at a critical time first thing one morning. The restocking and general cleaning of the toilet and cubical was not done every day which became critical when more people arrived. Whilst the site was centrally located to serve our purposes we would need to try this site again perhaps when there are no restrictions and more facilities opened.
We certainly felt it was not worth the £15/night with hook up. If situated backing the road, it was at times very noisy.

Friendly and efficient communication. Excellent value for money.
Very quiet site with a lovely clean loo.
It was perfect for us as we were visiting friends in the area and wanted to camp up for the night.

Beautiful view!
Slightly sloping, small site, clean showers and toilets. Very friendly and helpful owners.
The site is secluded so a car or bikes is advised.

We have just returned from a lovely weekend in our motorhome at the Cairds site. Our friends also stayed in the 'arch' (well kitted out camping pod with toilet and shower, sleeping two adult and two children).
We received a very warm welcome from Naomi, Pete and Sue. Excellent campsite, immaculate, clean toilets and showers. Beautiful views. Very peaceful.
Took the kids to Bedgebury Pinetum and hired bikes for a couple of hours - there's also a Go Ape there. Recommend eating at the Goudhurst Inn a few miles away.

We did two nights in the camping arch and one in a tent at this friendly quiet site. The owners are helpful and shower/loo facilities are good.
The arch was a pleasant little bolthole, ideal if the weather looks uncertain but we also had a lovely night in the tent listening to owls. Lots of wildlife and walks close to the site.
We had a tremendous lunch at The Bell in Ticehurst and also worth noting that a train can be caught into central London at Stonegate station, 5 minutes drive away.
We had a lovely stay and would return without hesitation.

Recently spent 6 nights on this gem of a site. Situated in the heart of the Weald of Kent within easy access to Bewle Water, Hastings, Rye, Brighton.
A gently sloping site (remember some blocks, although site owner Peter has a few to help) with excellent facilities.
For a small, intimate site, it is unusual to find 2 shower units each with Shower, WC (with toilet paper) and Wash Basin both kept immaculately clean, 3 water points and 16A electricity.
A peaceful and quiet site with a super little Londis mini market in nearby Burwash for all your needs.
Plenty of public footpaths nearby with one lovely walk (3 miles) through the fields and woods to Ticehurst where the Bell Inn offers a superb lunch menu.
Owners, Pete and Sue, go out of their way to help every visitor.

Stayed at this campsite as it was close to where we were going mountain biking. It's a lovely small campsite if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle of every day life.
Stunning views of the country side. Very quite and peaceful. Great area if you love mountain biking and walking, also national trust areas nearby. X2 toilet & shower blocks, plenty for the size of the camping site and they are very good too.
For those who have had a few drinks the night before and do not feel up to cooking breakfast, like my friend and myself, the owner of the site and the lovely b&b just 2 minutes down the road makes a lovely full Breakfast, which was much appreciated.
So overall very happy with our stay and look forward to taking my family next time.

A great stay for our first motorhome experience. Beautiful area. Showers and facilities good. One of the two shower wasn't working but not a big deal.
Pete was great and extremely helpful particularly with finding us a long hose to fill our water tank instead of the pathetic 4 foot one provided by the rental company and pulling us out of the mud when we left.
The little shop/cafe was good too.
