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

    LEWES IS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE! HOWEVER DO NOT STAY AT PREMIER INN !!!!!!!!!! THEY ARE A TOTAL JOKE AND NOTHING LESS THAN DAYLIGHT THIEVES WHO NEARLY DESTROYED MY WEDDING WITH 2 MISTAKES ON OUR BOOKINGS. The Dorset on the other hand is a Lovely place to stay and would recommend it to anyone whishing to stay in Lewes.

    Location, next to Southease station is really handy (easy travel to Brighton, Lewes, etc). Having free parking so close too was also useful (my friends travelled by public transport, but I drove). There's a big kitchen with everything you need for self catering. The beds are comfortable but they have a vinyl cover and I got very hot in the night. The reception staff were so friendly and amazingly helpful - I can't praise them enough.

    Location is perfect, lewes is a small village in all fairness and the hotel is very conveniently located in the middle of the high street. Very old bookstore, Anne of cleves house and castle on one side and the high street on the other side. Train station is a very short walk and easy for light travellers but a bit more difficult if carrying a lot as it is uphill

    We stayed at the property for 2 nights and the bed was very comfortable resulting in a good nights sleep. The room and bathroom were spotless. The host were warm and friendly. The location was fantastic in the heart of Lewes and only minutes to walk for breakfast with plenty of choice. Lewes is a great place to visit and we will definitely stay there again.

    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.

    Lovely comfortable stay while walking the South Downs way. Bus to Lewes very easy. Great location in Lewes. A few minutes walk away from a great choice of restaurants. Very friendly host welcomed us on arrival. Although accommodation is on the ground floor in the host's own house, our privacy was respected so that is no issue.

    I stopped over very briefly between two shifts I was working in Lewes. I had a disturbed night of sleep due to snoring (I was in a dorm room), but that is hardly the fault of YHA. The bathroom facilities were excellent, and I enjoyed a hot shower with good water pressure, which was much appreciated.

    Very pleasant flat, comfortable throughout. Warm enough when weather is cold. The provision of milk, coffee, etc was welcome. All items needed for kitchen are present. Nice view of bird feeder by kitchen. Frequent buses to Lewes and Brighton. Easy access to walking routes such as South Downs Way.

    Really clean and very comfortable house, spotless organisation by the host. Ideal if you want to relax. The location is convenient, out of the way but close enough that you can walk everywhere in Lewes. I really value how well and worry-free I felt after having stayed 3 days, thanks!

    The room was fine and the continental breakfast very good. Prices very reasonable. This a lively town pub that is just off the town centre. It does not have its' own car park but there is on street and a car park right outside.(10 minutes away). Great place en-route to Newhaven
