Hope all is well. I am looking to spend 3-4 days in the South Down in June and was looking for some "local" knowledge to help find a good campsite and recommedations for walks.
Sorry, that should read Amberley. TQ 030 123 is the approximate area of the camping barn, it is clearly shown on the Harveys map. I am wrong re the Tess Way, I was thinking about the Wey South path which includes some of the Wey & Arun navigation.
this site just south of exceat i sideally placed for the seven sisters and to seaford. the a259 just to the north has excellent bus services from eastbourne to brighton - via seaford.
there is the seven sisters section of the south downs way and the northern loop section back to alfriston. a walk from the campsite to seaford will give you a marvellous view of the seven sisters. a circular walk along the seven sisters to birling gap then north up to friston forest and back to exceat. to name but a few walks.
Cheers Morton and Parky, The area does sound like it has some nice days out, I normally prefer to go to Wales or Scotland but the downs is handy ad its only a 2 hour drive from Folkstone.
