Why Choose ACP

Where Every Guest Feels at Home

Alfriston Camping Park has been family-owned and run for over 30 years — not a franchise, not a chain. That means the same care, the same attention to detail, and the same warm welcome, whether it's your first visit or your fifteenth.

We're proud that so much of our business comes from repeat guests and word-of-mouth recommendations. People don't come back to a campsite by accident; they come back because it felt right the first time.

Our Location

Right in the Heart of the South Downs

We sit inside the South Downs National Park, in the historic, postcard-perfect village of Alfriston.

Stunning, Uninterrupted Countryside Views

Wake up to open fields and rolling downland in every direction, right outside your tent or van.

Direct Access to Walking Routes

Step straight out onto local trails, including the famous Seven Sisters.

A Genuinely Quiet, Rural Setting

Peaceful and tucked away, yet only minutes from real attractions worth visiting.
