About The South Downs Eco Lodge & Camping

Tucked into the South Downs near Petersfield, this small eco-focused site strikes a nice balance between back-to-basics camping and a touch of glamping charm. Pitch your tent among the trees, book one of the chic yurts, or settle in for a longer stay—it's open year-round and welcomes campfires, so evenings can be properly atmospheric. Dogs are invited too, making it a handy spot for families and four-legged friends alike.

The onsite cafe is a pleasant bonus for morning coffee or a lazy lunch, and the South Downs National Park sprawls right on the doorstep for walking and cycling. Facilities are straightforward—showers, toilets, drinking water—though there's no Wi-Fi, which some will see as a feature rather than a drawback. A peaceful, unpretentious base for exploring Hampshire's hills and villages.

I had a wonderful time staying here. It’s a lovely and well managed eco resort and feels great being off grid. The facilities and room exceeded my expectations.
