Sunnyside pop-up camping
Fresh air, firepits and Finnish sauna – the Scandi eco-camping experience, just one hour's drive from London
Warm welcome.
It's been long held dream of ours; to develop a low-impact, eco-friendly pop-up campsite with a Scandinavian twist. And here we are, in the beautiful Sussex Countryside! We offer weekend family camping for 10 weekends of the year and the odd special event throughout the summer.
(For the other 337 days of the year, we manage the site to improve biodiversity and provide for local walkers.)
Our Scandi spirit
Sunnyside founder Katja is a proud Finn. Finland is officially the happiest country in the world, and Kat knows why. "Our happiness comes from many things but, if you ask me, our ability to integrate nature into our lives is top of the list. In Scandinavia, the nature isn't just around us, it's within us. Being outdoorsy isn't just a trait, it's a way of life."
Suomi sauna
At Sunnyside, we light the sauna for everyone on a Saturday night. We offer private bookings on Friday and Saturday daytime. In a sauna, people cleanse their bodies and minds and embrace a sense of inner peace. That's why the Finns call the sauna a ‘church of nature’. All you need is a towel and your authentic self.
Firepits for all
We love campfires and see them as an integral part of the camping experience. Campfires bring people together at the end of the day, to cook, socialise and relax. The smell of the wood smoke at twilight and the excitement on the kids' faces when the marshmallows come out are bound to set you up for a perfect night away from the city lights!
It's oh-so-easy to get to Sunnyside. We're just over an hour's drive from central London – and only 5 minutes in a taxi from East Grinstead rail station.
