About Stalkhurst Camping and Caravan Park
Stalkhurst Camping and Caravan Park is a small, family-run site set in the countryside near Ewhurst Green, inland from Rye towards Bodiam Castle. It offers a quieter, more rural alternative to the coastal parks at Camber, with a limited number of pitches for tents, caravans and motorhomes set among trees and open fields rather than dunes and sand.
The site keeps its facilities simple: electric hook-ups, clean shower and toilet blocks, and a peaceful, low-key atmosphere that suits campers looking to get away from crowds rather than find an entertainment programme. Its position among the wooded valleys of the Rother, a few miles from both Bodiam Castle and the Kent and Sussex Weald, makes it a good base for walking and cycling as well as for visiting Rye itself.
Rye's old town lies around nine miles away, an easy drive or a longer cycle ride, making Stalkhurst better suited to those happy to travel a short distance for the town's cobbled streets and restaurants in exchange for a genuinely rural, unhurried pitch for the rest of their stay.
