About Seven Acre Woods
Escape to this peaceful campsite, nestled in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Battle. With a no-music policy that respects the harmony of nature, you and your fellow cabiners, glampers, and campers can fully enjoy the setting and outdoor life. Situated on the outskirts of the ancient Brede High Woods, a Woodland Trust site spanning 657 acres and surrounding the picturesque Powdermill Reservoir, you will be treated to stunning views and scenery. The site offers just four grass pitches with electric hook up and a fire pit for tents only. For something more comfortable, choose the cosy glamping tents, including the Mole Hill Glamping Tent and the Mouse Nook Glamping Tent, which both sleep up to four. Both tents are in a small, quiet grass area with double beds, electric with fairy lighting, cool box, outdoor table bench, chairs with table, fire pit with grill and more. Just don't forget to bring bedding and cooking supplies (can be added on for an additional fee). The Badgers Burrow Hut is set in a secluded private area with a double bed and floor space for a travel cot or air bed. You will be supplied with cooking utensils, crockery, cool box, an indoor table, chairs and solar lighting. Outside is a kitchen prep area, BBQ/fire pit, decking area and seating. You may choose to cosy up with a book, have fun with board games from The Cubby, take a walk from the footpath through the Ancient Wood or simply relax and listen and watch the wildlife around you whilst relaxing around your fire pit with a cup of something delicious. If you're looking for a party atmosphere, this site is not for you. But if you want to time away from the hustle and spend quality time with family and friends doing as much or as little as you wish, then you've come to the right place. The site welcomes all those who want time away (including your furry family members!) to experience the rustic yet real charm of outdoor life, who respect and appreciate the great outdoors! You'll find stunning woodland walks directly from your doorstep or canvas door via the public footpath that runs through Seven Acre Woods. These walks can take you around the Reservoir, to the Village or a loop around ancient history, taking in the wildlife and fauna known in these woodlands. Dogs are welcome, however, not in glamping accommodation.
Seven Acre Woods is open from 28/03 to 30/09.
