Welcome to Sumners Ponds Campsite & Fishery
Tucked away in the peaceful countryside of West Sussex, Sumners Ponds is a unique destination for fishing, camping, and relaxing breaks. Set across 100 acres of lakes, woodlands, and meadows, it’s the perfect blend of nature and comfort—just an hour from London and 30 minutes from Brighton.
Whether you’re fishing by the lake, exploring nearby villages, or wandering scenic nature trails, Sumners Ponds offers a tranquil retreat with something for everyone.
Choose from a range of accommodation, including Lakeside Lodges, Safari Tents, Shepherd’s Huts, and Camping Pods. We also offer grass and hardstanding pitches for caravans, campervans, and tents, all supported by modern facilities and a friendly atmosphere.
Relax. Explore. Unwind.
With stunning views, excellent amenities, and some of the best fishing in the region, Sumners Ponds is ideal for family holidays, romantic getaways, or peaceful solo stays.
The Cafe by the Lake, open to guests and the public, features a licensed bar, a cozy safari-style room with log burners, and panoramic views over the water—especially magical in summer.
We also offer our very own home-reared meat, available to purchase from the main reception. Frozen for freshness, it’s perfect for a BBQ during your stay—whether you’re dining by the lake or under the stars.
From the moment you arrive, the Smith family and our team are here to make your stay memorable. We can’t wait to welcome you.
