Discover the beautiful award-winning gardens and the forest with its giant swings, zip wires and Crusoe’s World. Jane Austen’s ‘Pride and Prejudice’ was filmed at Groombridge Place, find out more about this and our other literary connections.

The Forest, which encapsulates the magical spirit conjured up by the books of JK Rowling and JRR Tolkien was designed in the most part by TV gardener and land artist Ivan Hicks. The Forest can be reached by either canal boat or on foot.

Crusoe’s World was inspired by TV series Crusoe. Original props from this TV series were reconstructed at Groombridge Place. Two treehouses are linked together with rope bridges and a central viewing tower. They are on several levels with decking and platforms, sheltered under sail roofs. There is a lookout post high above one of the treehouses, providing fabulous views over the canal, open countryside and the steam trains of the Spa Valley Railway.

Outdoor adventures:
Take a walk along the forest pathways with its lakes and hidden surprises along the way. Look out for the Fallow deer, squirrels and other wildlife. Discover the tepees and the fort before taking the ‘Boardwalk Challenge’ with its aerial walkways, tunnels, rope swings and child’s zip wire. Children and adults alike will enjoy the giant tree swings which are suspended from the tallest trees in the forest.

Wild Boar Wood Campsite is a family-based campsite which offers campers real off-grid woodland camping in our stylish pre-erected Bell Tents. (We have tent pitches at our Beech Estate Woodland Campsite)

Our nine fully-equipped Bell Tents are set in a beautiful campsite with open campfires, within a five-acre bluebell wood in the heart of Sussex. Our woodland campsite is located in the High Weald, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

   The Bell Tents offer a unique, off-grid, holiday ‘glamping’ experience and are set apart in the trees giving solitude and privacy from the outside world. The camp is located in West Sussex near Haywards Heath, close to London, Brighton and Ashdown Forest. Wild Boar Wood Campsite offers an opportunity to camp side by side with nature, whilst enjoying the comfort of our tents, with beds, cooking equipment, open fire bbq grill and a firewood allocation.

We have a permanent warden onsite to assist our campers at all times. The campsite is ideal for families and groups, to reconnect and renew friendships, or chat with fellow campers around the campfire. Full campsite bookings are also available for that special celebration. The two ‘faraway’ tents offer a more secluded option, tucked away from the main campsite, for couples and families wanting their own space.

Wild Boar Wood and its surrounding 40-acre field teem with wildlife; birds, butterflies, deer, rabbit, hedgehogs and foxes make their homes in the field, hedgerows and woodland. Close by the woodland campsite, the River Ouse meanders through the countryside, offering delightful and scenic walks along its banks to the welcoming local hostelries.

The peace and tranquillity are interrupted only by the historic and spectacular Bluebell Railway locomotives as they occasionally thunder past the edge of the woodland campsite!

We operate a small scale quiet, relaxed and laid back campsite. We don’t allow amplified music and have a low noise policy from 10 pm in the evenings.

Welcome to Wowo Campsite, we are a family run, family orientated campsite buried in the heart of Sussex only a short drive to London and Brighton.

We specialise in the things that we think are essential to great camping here at Wowo:
1.Campfires- We think camping just isn't the same without a crackling campfire to sit
around when it gets dark, cook on and keep you warm.

2. We are a family campsite - children and dog friendly, allowing
families to camp together in groups.

3. We have a varied selection of Mongolian Yurts for those campers looking
for added luxury whilst retaining the rustic style of the outdoors.

We also have a huge selection of educational courses here at Wowo, anything from foraging for herbal medicines, making pottery over a fire, bushcraft skills, circus skills, you name it, you can do it here!

On the weekends in the summer we provide all campers that are interested in free entertainment and soup. Homemade, organic, delicious soup with homemade bread to create a relaxed communal atmosphere.

We look forward to welcoming you to Wowo with sunshine and crackling campfires.

Please visit our website for all this information and much, much more: www.wowo.co.uk

Betsom's Hill

Hidden Spring offers twenty-five pitches for tents, campervans and small caravans, set amongst our twenty acres of orchards. 
Well away from busy roads, we are still just a short walk to the village, to link to the Cuckoo Trail cycle path, or to a number of great pubs, via footpaths. 
The site comprises two fields, one with EHU and one, just for tents, with our three yurts in. 
The tent only field is kept car-free, except for setting up. There are two simple play areas with swings and a willow spiral, but most of all there is space.
We offer a number of family-based courses, and a wood-fired pizza man visits, see web site for details and forthcoming dates.
