Amazing hosts, so friendly and helpful. Waking up to the stunning views each morning was absolutely magical. The children loved the lamb feeding, meeting the horses, pigs, chickens and the donkey. The boating pond and brunch is such a wonderful experience. Back to nature holidays are the way forward, we will be back next year!

We hebben enorm genoten! De tent was compleet , een fijne douche in een apart gebouwtje verderop, de rondlopende kippen bij de tent, lammetjes de fles mogen geven en zelfs even de kids (2,5 en 4 jaar) op de tractor mogen zitten van boerin Gill:-). Ze vonden het geweldig, het weer werkte gelukkig ook goed mee. Vermoedelijk gaan we nog wel een keer een boerenbed boeken!

From start, to finish, it was the perfect relaxing holiday that we had hoped for; Gillian and Jo could not have done more to ensure a fun, comfortable, relaxing stay at Sunninglye Farm.
We had great fun gathering wood for the camp fire and the pizza oven and enjoyed the experience of cooking on these, as well as the wood burning stove in the tent, the latter was greatly assisted by the provision of wonderful dry wood to burn so it was never any bother to get the fire going and up to cooking temperature in a short space of time. And, on the days it was wet and windy, the fire kept us warm and cosy for a 'snuggle-in' reading day.
We greatly enjoyed exploring the fields, woods and pond - the fish were so intriguing to watch! we took a boat out on the pond which was enormous fun; we collected our eggs for breakfast - delicious! had chats with Denise, Margo and Cyril (pigs) and the donkey and pony too. There was so much to keep us entertained and relaxing at Sunninglye, we didn't leave the farm once we'd arrived, taking full advantage of their fresh bread deliveries (utterly scrumptious!) and the delicious meat from a local butcher, also delivered to us. The 'honesty shop' took me back to being a child, literally like a child in a sweet shop - it has sooooo many treats and goodies and thoughtful items to enable you to cook a complete meal if needed i.e. pizza bases, pesto, ice cream - even boxes of matches.
This holiday was to celebrate a 70th birthday and a retirement (so we're no 'spring chickens' )and it was absolutely wonderful and I would wholeheartedly recommend it, if you're looking for a complete break and a 'step off the treadmill'!
Thank you Gillian and Jo for all your hard work, that you make look so easy, in providing a really memorable holiday.........we shall definitely be back!!!

Geweldige week gehad op Sunninglye Farm. Gill is erg vriendelijk en zorgzaam, er was veel te doen voor de kinderen, en de tent ligt heel vrij met een prachtig uitzicht over de heuvels. De "farmhouse" douches bevielen prima.

We're a family of 4 with a mad cocker spaniel. The whole experience was fab and we were hosted brilliantly. Jill rang prior to our stay and made helpful suggestions with our itinerary and gave us tips on what to pack. The kids had a brilliant time, bottle-feeding the baby lambs and meeting the other animals. Jill also took our vehicle-mad 4-year-old on the tractor when we weren't able to get to Diggerland. She showed us where we could let our dog off the lead and explore away from the vulnerable ewes and lambs, and also kept a fenced-off field available for us to exercise him near the tent. We had a day out at Camber Sands and also went to Bedgebury Pinetum, which although expensive to park (£14 for a car!) was a fab day out with loads of activities for the kids.
The tent itself was well equipped and comfy, we needed hot water bottles at night and learned to light the fire early on to stay cosy in the evening, but we had a great time. We definitely needed our camping stove, and we made good use of the pizza oven one night which the kids really enjoyed.
Overall a really great stay in a beautiful part of the UK.

We had a wonderful weekend at the farm so much so that we and our 2 young daughters didn’t want to leave.
Gill and Jo were incredibly kind and thoughtful hosts especially when it comes to little ones and what they might like to see and do.
We can’t wait to visit again.

Sunninglye farm was an idyllic getaway wonderfully which caters really well for families. Our children loved the animals and beautiful surroundings which gave them freedom to explore whilst always in our eye sight. We didn’t need to leave the site at all. Gill was a fantastic host and very patient with our children's questions and excitement. The farm tour was perfect and we all learnt something! We spent a lot of time on the boats and catching crayfish which was a first :) The Pizza oven on the Saturday night worked brilliantly too. We had a really great weekend spending time with family and making memories, we can’t wait to return.

We had a wonderful stay at Sunninglye farm. The setting was beautiful and we loved waking up each morning to a view of rolling hills, sheep and deer from our veranda. My 3 year old, 5 year old and 8 year old loved collecting chicken eggs, feeding the horse and donkey and meeting the pigs and chickens as they pecked and snuffled around our tent. The little play area kept the little ones happy and my oldest loved trying out all of the boats on the pond each day, so everyone was entertained without having to leave the farm and spend extra money. Our dog enjoyed being allowed to come with us everywhere on the farm, swimming in the pond and her off lead walks beyond the campsite, just a short walk away. We loved our tent, it had everything we needed and was very comfortable and private from the other campers.
Our host, Gill, was great, she was available and responsive to our needs, and we felt welcomed and looked after.
A true escape and break from our normal city life. We all loved it.

We just came back from a 5 day break to Sunninglye Farm and couldn't have had a better week. The hosts were friendly and helpful, the honesty shop was full of everything you could need on your visit (including some very yummy local cider) and the site itself was great! Lots to keep 7 kids occupied all week, the highlight of which was the lake at the bottom of the farm where we spent time rowing boats/canoes and crayfishing.

Brilliant weekend for the second time at Sunninglye. The children loved hanging out by the lake, and also herding the sheep with Gill. Only point to mention was that the new stoves don't seem to be as good as the previous ones - take longer to heat up and harder to get going. Everything else was excellent - we'll be back!

We had a wonderful time. We loved the freedom to interact with the animals. We found Gill very friendly, relaxed and accommodating. The site is great, with just the right number of guests to make it feel social but not crowded. The camping lodges are absolutely delightful and beautifully designed, although the cold at night reminds you that you are actually "camping"! Very warm sleeping bags are a good idea. We really enjoyed the boating lake. We loved the honesty shop although it would be great if it stocked more local produce. Our son loved the play area and collecting eggs. Nice hot shower, no complaints at all. All in all this is a wonderful holiday that I will thoroughly recommend to others.

Sunninglye Farm is set in glorious grounds. The Featherdown Glamping experience here is as good as it gets. Lovely farm tour & meet the animals. Our girls particularly loved the wild pond and the boats and spent all afternoon there. Making pizzas in the pizza oven another highlight as was pony pampering. Thank you to Gill a wonderful host. Definitely coming back.

We had a great stay. Our host, Gill, was amazing. She took the children to collect eggs, bottle feed lambs, pony pamper. The pizza oven was a great touch which made dinner on Saturday night quick, easy and delicious. We had the brunch adventure down by the pond which was magical. We loved slowing down and focusing on the basics. The children loved the honesty shop and would frequent it may times a day and because everything was so reasonably priced we had not worries about what they took. Beautiful memories made 🥰

Thank you so much to Gill for a wonderful weekend on your beautiful farm! Boating on the pond, feeding the lambs, running wild in the woods, playing football on the sports field & using the many rope swings kept our kids easily entertained for the whole weekend & they are desperate to return. A really special place with a lovely host.

The BBQ box and breakfast box that we ordered from the farm contained fresh and delicious food. We enjoyed a country walk, gathering eggs, time on the farm relaxing, delicious meals and fresh air. We would definitely rebook Sunninglye Farm.
