Billycan Camping

This lovely site is small: maybe room for 12 families in total. It is in an idyllic field just outside Arundel. It takes all the hassle out of camping without being too glamorous and hotel like. Your bell tent, tipee or yurt is ready and waiting for you with air beds and nice throws but you still bring the bedding etc. On the first night your are welcomed with a gorgeous stew and hot chocolate and marshmallows round the fire. This provides a perfect oppurtunity for the kids to bond and boy did mine take advantage of that. For the rest of the weekend they ran as a pack with various other little ones. After that first night you are left to fend for yourself food wise save a lovely breakfast hamper given to you for the next morning.

The kitchen tent is fully equipt. There is even a communal fridge. The toilets are lovely and clean. There is a covered dining table and sitting area in case it rains. Its all pretty perfect.

The only downsides are that you can hear the noise for the nearby A road (its about 1.5 fields away) and the nearvy traintrack (it is about a mile away but in the silent countryside noise travels).

A field with 8 yurts and 1 tepee just 15 mins river walk from Arundel.Cooking is on your own BBQ or the communal 'hot-box'. Lovely stew cooked for your first evening with hot chocolate and marshmallows around the communal camp fire which is a great way to meet your fellow campers. Hamper for first day breakfast then over to you.
Great fun and an easier way to go camping than doing it yourself. Would recommend especially for a few families to have outdoor fun together. Only disappointment is the cold shower but for a weekend away this isn't such a problem!
