Set in the South Downs National Park, an escape to Oak Lodge is a real opportunity to escape the hustle of everyday life. The South Downs Way National Trail covers 160km, so you can walk through ancient woodlands, carpeted with bluebells; watch roe deer darting through wildflower meadows; witness hares boxing or even spot a red kite hunting above.
There’s so much to do and see in the area, from walking, cycling or horse riding across the Downs, exploring wildlife in the wetlands, visiting one of the many heritage sites to experiencing opera at the world famous Glyndebourne.
The site is adjacent to Hassocks community football club - it is likely guests will hear some low level match noise during games.

What’s not to like about these lodges? Our second stay and would highly recommend. There is not a single thing needed which isn’t already provided. Took our Grandson this time and he enjoyed the extensive grounds to play on.

Our second holiday in South Downs Lodges. The site is beautifully maintained with many trees in a large green area. 6 lodges are located at the bottom of the site with each lodge separated by extensive planting which results in good privacy and peace and quiet. The lodges are maintained in tip-top condition with all the fittings needed for an enjoyable holiday.West and East Sussex are lovely counties with many National Trust properties and other gardens to visit.
