Amazing views
Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.
We offer peaceful, back to basics camping on 33 acres of land in the beautiful South Downs village of Kingston. Get back to nature and take in the simple pleasures of the wide-open fields and South Downs views. There is a great country pub a few steps down the lane, We have an onsite wood fired sauna and direct access to the South Downs Way, for amazing hiking and biking.
The 8 grassy tent pitches are spread over a large field with a composting loo and a sink with running water, so there’s a firm back-to-basics vibe. You’re also very welcome to rustle up an off-ground fire or BBQ.
Thing to do...
Wood-fired Sauna
Our wood fired sauna is nestled away in the heart of Kingston on thirty-three acres of beautiful South Downs countryside.
This simple set-up brings the focus on the therapeutic benefits of the sauna’s healing heat, and if you are brave enough, we also have a cold plunge pool and an outdoor shower that will leave you feeling invigorated.
The sauna holds 8 people in community style sessions, but can be booked for private hire.

Get involved...
We run a quarter acres market garden with regular volunteer days and wellbeing activities, so you may well see us out on the land, and are welcome to join us and learn too. Kingston is a peaceful village with a 13th-century lane, so it’s well-suited to quiet, family-friendly breaks with plenty of birdsong and wildlife. check out our website or instagram for more information
We ask you to leave your car in the car park. We can lend you a wheelbarrow to shuttle your stuff to the field. There are no bins or recycling facilities, so you’ll need to whisk any rubbish away with you at the end of the stay.
Lovebrook is a multi-faceted, ecological community project, so all profits from camping go towards running wellbeing and nature activities on the land, for underserved or vulnerable groups.If you want to explore the surrounding area, Lewes is 2 miles away. It's a quick drive, and easily accessible with a walk, cycle or bus ride. Lewes has a lively selection of cafés and shops for antiques and arts. Then just slightly further away is the coastal hub of Brighton & Hove - with beaches, bars, cafes, clubs, shops and more. Get to Brighton by car, a 15-minute train from Lewes, a bus from Kingston, or with a 45-minute bike ride.
