The most exquisitely relaxing but stimulating day what a way to end 7 nights in Sussex! We spotted 15 fledgling white storks, 5 aerial circling adult storks, wild pigs wallowing in a stream & piglets separately in another area, wild ponies, 2 hats. A kingfisher, rabbits, plentiful deer, a lone female with her baby nearby, the beaver enclosure, and numerous purple empororer butterflies more females than males.

Hats off to the landowners for having the courage to leave this legacy and how quickly nature reclaims if.

Thanks Neil the warden for your help btw! We...

I would say to the management of the park that they should make the terrain condition clear and put times on the routes as we were very close to being in a very...
Read moreI had a lovely time in Knepp, would definitely recommend. The outdoor kitchen was really nice to cook in, got to meet some of the other campers. Got to wake up to the sound of birdsong every morning which was a real treat. Lots of lovely walks to go on, we were treated to the sight of a sow feeding her piglets. Got to see the storks every day and we got to roast marshmallows on the open fire.
Facilities lovely and clean, shower perfect and not too busy, toilets in good condition, the shop has some good tasty options to choose from, overall felt very well catered for.
Can’t wait...
