Tent pitch (with Electric Hook Up)
Delightful Dogwood Cottage Campsite
We had a lovely stay at Dogwood Cottage Campsite in Brede. Easy to book and the hosts Phil and Katie sent through booking confirmations and welcome pack with lots of helpful information really quickly. We opted for a pitch with an electrical hook up, which meant we were able to plug our electric cool box in and charge our portable devices.
We hired a fire pit and bought a bag of logs for a campfire both nights we stayed.
The site was very quiet and all the other campers were very friendly and respectful.
The showers were lovely and hot and the toilets clean. There is also a nice big sink for washing up.
It was great to spend our early mornings with the very inquisitive chickens and goats, the latter of which loved a little body rub on the tent guy ropes!
The local bus is a route 29 which appears to run every hour, but wasn’t stopping at the bus stop a few yards up the road due to some road works.
Hastings seafront is about a 20 minute drive away.
We didn’t get to try the two pubs that are closest to the campsite, The Red Lion and The Broad Oak, but both are about a 15-20 minute walk away.
All in all, a really nice stay. Thanks Phil and Katie.

Caravan pitch (non-electric)
Lovely, quiet rural site with everything you need for a great stay.
The owner Phil is helpful & friendly & the vibe is super chilled. You are allocated a pitch before arrival & these are spacious enough that you’re not crammed in at all. We didn’t explore the other areas with pitches but from the map they sent us, there are lots of quiet hedged off areas. Showers, toilets & washing up facilities are well kept. Rules are there but nothing that would mess with a chilled trip. Dog friendly but on leads at all times (there are goats & a Shetland pony loose at times)
It’s a great place in a lovely setting with lovely owners.
Would absolutely recommend.

Campervan pitch (with Electric HU)
Peaceful location
Lovely host Phil, in a quiet & relaxed atmosphere.
Nice location for exploring the coast & Hastings or Battle etc
The kids loved the Gamgster goats & chickens that wonder around.
Just be aware the chickens take no prisoners & are not easily scared away from your cooking!

We will be back!
Simple and lovely campsite in a great location. If you are looking for easy access to several beautiful beaches and the nature reserve at Rye Harbour this is the perfect choice. It's a small, friendly site with large flat pitches. Our daughter had a great time making friends with the other kids. Hot showers and clean facilities, and Phil was very friendly and always on hand for anything. We loved Dino the tiny Shetland pony, the goats, chickens and ducks that had free reign of the site during the day.

VERY nice!
Very nice camping with lovely hosts! We had a very good time at dogwood campsite for 9 nights. It is a small farm camping/glamping with a pony, 2 goats, chickens and ducks. There are some rules like no car by the tent and no stereos but the result is a VERY good atmosphere on the camp site where everybody is relaxt. When we are back in England we will visit this hidden pearl again. Viva España! (Inside joke ;) ) Thank you for having us!
