Can't wait for the camping adventure?
It's been a long held dream of ours; to develop a low-impact, eco-friendly pop-up campsite with a Nordic twist. And here we are, in the beautiful Sussex Countryside!
We invite you to enjoy our off-grid, sustainable and friendly campsite with a lovely community vibe, for 13 weekends in the summer season.
Each of our weekends has a different activity on offer up at Centre Camp, some are aimed more at children and some include a bit of a celebration!

For the rest of the year, we manage the site as a hay meadow to improve biodiversity and provide for local walkers.
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 Finland, the nature isn't just around us, it's within us. Being outdoorsy isn't just a trait, it's a way of life."
At Sunnyside, we light our Finnish wood heated sauna and run a communal sauna for everyone on a Saturday nights. We also offer private bookings on Friday evenings 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.
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 pop-up camping! We are just over an hour's drive away from central London and only 5 minutes in a taxi from East Grinstead rail station.

It's wholesome, low-key, and super friendly. The atmosphere felt genuinely safe, which meant I could let my 7-year-old roam freely - and that's all he really wants!
I didn't try the sauna this time, but friends who did said it was fantastic.
The owners were incredibly friendly, and it's the kind of place I'd happily return to on my own with my son - I know we'd both enjoy it, and there would be other lovely adults around to chat to. A really special spot.

All of it was really well put together, and I think there's something here for all types of campers. There's four fields, so if you want remote 'wild' feel camping, you can get that there. Then the community feel of the first field is unlike any sites I've been to; Heath an Kat were so welcoming, friendly and down to earth.
Lovely woods and trails for walking surrounding the area. Facilities are pretty great too, had a lovely sauna with my 7 year old there's a little wooded area round the central camp and rope ladders, hammock swing etc. It's my little boys new favourite camp site!
