About The Holmsted Himalayas

The Holmsted Himalayas delivers proper off-grid glamping just outside Cuckfield, with ten spacious 5m bell tents that come fully kitted out and ready to go. The real draw here is the swimming lake – you can kayak, paddleboard or simply take a dip when the mood strikes – plus there are campfires, communal areas with games, and views across West Sussex countryside that guests consistently praise for their peacefulness.

Facilities are spotless (showers and toilets get particular mention) and the staff are genuinely helpful throughout. It's a family-friendly setup, though note that pets aren't allowed and there's no WiFi – which is rather the point if you're after a proper digital detox. With easy access from Brighton and London, it's an ideal spot for switching off without venturing too far from home.

What visitors say

Katie Wood

I cannot recommend Holmsted Himalayas highly enough. We booked the whole site for our wedding and it was perfect! The site itself is beautiful with a small wetland and views over a valley. There are loads of field games, table tennis etc and plenty of power outlets (which we found more important than expected!). The bell tents are lovely and there’s even a sauna (extra) and swimming lake onsite. Josh, Kate and Amanda were amazing to work with- great communication, useful contacts and the perfect balance of helpful and chilled. All of our guests loved it as a venue and we had the best day. We’ll definitely be going back for a glamping weekend!

Lovely site, with access to a swimming lake and sauna. Staff were really helpful brought an extra fridge up for us. Lovely chilled vibe and lots of space for kids to play.

THE most incredible place, so so special - we had the most amazing, beautiful, magical time and was truly one of the best weekends of my life!!! Massive thanks to Josh and his family for being incredible hosts and for creating such a beautiful space.

We stayed two nights but felt we could easily enjoy a longer break here. Was lovely and peaceful. Has everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. The bell tent was clean and comfortable. Showers and toilet facilities clean. Lots of space for the kids to enjoy themselves and the lake was a really nice experience, we spent most of the time there. The coffee shop in the morning was a welcome perk. We will definitely be back and stay longer next time.
