Scallow Campsite, hotel in Lewes

Providing a garden, Scallow Campsite provides accommodations in Lewes. The campground, set in a building dating back to 2022, is 8.5 miles from Glyndebourne Opera House and 15 miles from AMEX Stadium....

The camping pod was really cosy and clean, much roomier and more comfortable than I expected. The pods are really well kitted out with kitchenware and home comforts, which is perfect for a solo traveller who can't carry too much with them. Lovely little coffee/tea hamper provided and the hob was really easy to use. The pods are warm and well lit, with a great little decking area to sit out on into the evening. Very comfortable beds and bedding, plenty of towels in the shower room and all the little extra things you might need have been thought of. I would highly recommend the Scallows and would love to visit again myself one day.

    So much history.

    So much history. Loved the buildings, the motte and bailey castle, the priory remains in the park, the independent shops and cafés. Everything is within walking distance. Great to have a railway station and Brighton only 9 miles away. Superb views and walks over the South Downs.

    Interesting county town.

    Interesting county town. A few things to do inside there (eg castle and priory, Depot cinema by the station). Or excellent transport links to coast (Seaford preferable to Newhaven unless you want to catch the ferry to Dieppe) and Brighton of course. The self contained area of Downs to the east are my favourite. Quieter than the main range of the Downs to the south so you can just roam around and enjoy the peace. Or you can walk along the river as far as Newhaven but this can be quite muddy when it's been raining. Beautiful flat walk though if you go when it's dry, or don't mind mud!

    I lived near Lewes from 2000 to 2005 so know the area.

    I lived near Lewes from 2000 to 2005 so know the area. Am fond of the Riverside area with its eating places, also the High Street. Perhaps not a huge amount going on, and perhaps the "Information Centre" could be done up/revamped a little more, but the town is in an excellent central location for a holiday spent exploring locally.

    Lewis is an old town full of interesting history, lots of old buildings and of course the castle that's always worth the walk up the hill, don't worry if you're not too fit as you can get a local bus to the top of the hill. Lots of wonderful pubs and cafes in the town centre along with some nice restaurants. The town is surrounded by stunning scenery all around.

    I stay in Lewes frequently for visits to Glyndebourne.

    I stay in Lewes frequently for visits to Glyndebourne. The local taxi firm (GMC Taxis) are very good and are prompt when picking up at the arranged time both to get to Glyndebourne and to return. The town itself has much to offer with interesting shops and historic places including the Castle. Hotel accommodation is very limited since the closure of The Shelleys and Pelham House. Parking is expensive

    The staff was efficient and friendly. They helped me with my questions about visiting Lewes and parking. I loved the menu and the beer was fresh and exceptionally good. I didn't have to wait long for my food at all. The location was perfect, on the quiet end of town with free overnight parking right across the street. From 9 am, you have to pay for parking, but it's only £4 for all day parking. The shops at this end of town are really interesting, and Cafe du Jardin is right across the street for lunch.

    The house is just a minute or two's walk to a bus stop to Lewes town center. A quality breakfast basket was supplied with muesli, croissants, preserves, tea and coffee with milk and bottled water. The lounge overlooks the patio garden, has a wood burning stove and a luxurious sofa. The kitchen is well equipped for self catering but we only stayed one night.

    Beautiful location, interesting historic building, delicious breakfast, fabulous meals, great wine, wonderful ambiance and just the best bed sheets I have had in a hotel for quite some time. October 2023 there are building works next door didn’t worry us at all but some guests were more disturbed by this.

    Lovely, quaint and cosy space. We loved our stay here and Simone has provided a beautiful space for a getaway. The 'best brownies' were very much appreciated and we ordered a cooked and continental breakfast which was all delicious and plentiful. Would happily stay again.

    The location was great - really useful for Lewes town, the castle and the train station. The property was clean, comfortable and well set-up for a family of four like ours. We weren't staying very long but would have made a great base for exploring Sussex and the coast.

    The apartment was 5 minutes walk from the railway station right in the centre of Lewes. A bus stop and supermarket were about 400 m away. There was an excellent restaurant just across the road. The location would be hard to beat.

    For the price you can’t beat the location and amenities. Bread, crumpets, butter/jam, milk and cereal provided were fantastic and the room is bright and clean and has everything needed for a few days around Lewes.
