Dernwood Farm is a family-owned working farm and woodland campsite in the heart of the Sussex Weald, East Sussex, set among 70 acres of ancient coppiced woodland between Brighton, Eastbourne and Tunbridge Wells. You can choose simple tent pitches in the camping field, exclusive woodland spots at The Encampment, tree tents and hammocks, or glamping in bell tents, a safari tent, a shepherd's hut or The Cabin with its wood-fired hot tub. Campfires are allowed, toilets and showers are on site, and the on-site café serves breakfasts and snacks using the farm's own bacon, sausages and eggs. The farm also produces its own beef, pork and lamb, sold in the on-site shop. Nearby attractions include Farleys Barn Gallery and Blackberry Farm Park, both 2.3 miles away.
