Come and camp in our lovely old-fashioned bell tents aroun d a huge and gorgeously furnished yurt on the South Downs in Sussex this summer. Eat local food and go for outdoor adventures with our excellent guides. You can forage for wild food, birdwatch at dawn, ferret for rabbits, fly birds of prey, search for rare orchids and butterflies, explore archaeological sites or….. just lie back in the long grass listening to skylarks, go for an evening wander along the luminous chalk paths overlooking the sea, chill out around the fire and soak in the sunset, or snuggle down on a comfy sofa inside the yurt.

Safari Britain camps are just 90 minutes from London, in the heart of the South Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It’s inexpensive, entertaining, country-loving and incredibly green.

We provide:

An exclusive campsite on private farmland in the South Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (max 16 people). Firle Estate; Clapham Farm, Litlington

You bring:

Your camping gear - bedding, towels and good walking shoes, we’ve got just about everything else
