Experience camping in a glamping pod at Sumners Ponds Fishery & Campsite. The concept is to bring all your own equipment less the tent – so you need to bring your own bedding including mattress or camp bed, cooking equipment and anything else you think you might need for a camping trip. Best of all you will be cosy and warm with no wet tent to pack away at the end of your stay.
The glamping pod consists of lockable double doors, carpeted flooring, electric heater and lighting with the use of a double plug socket. There is also a small decking area on each of the pods for use as a seating and cooking area. At each pod there is a picnic table exclusively for your use.
Use of the showers blocks and electricity is included. Fishing is separate and tickets can be purchased when you arrive. The Small Lakeside Glamping Pods are located on the Sumners Lake and Farm Pond and can sleep up to two adults and two small children.
Glamping at Sumners Ponds Fishery and Campsite in West Sussex is a unique and beautiful spot set in tranquil countryside amongst 100 acres of lakes, woodland and pasture.
The campsite itself boasts high quality campsite facilities, acres of woodland, a working farm and fishing lakes. All this in a beautiful and secluded setting which is perfect for just relaxing, or for the more active, exploring the many footpaths and safe cycle-ways within and around the site.
Sumners Ponds is an ideal touring base, with many beautiful towns and villages near by. Access to the South Downs National Park and the coast is easy, while Brighton is only half an hour by car and London only one hour away. There really is something for everyone.
The Cafe by the Lake is our restaurant and bar which is open to both those staying on site and the general public. We aim to provide the highest standard of food and service.
When you arrive the Smith family and the team will be here to ensure that your glamping break in West Sussex is as enjoyable as possible. We look forward to welcoming you.

A lovely site with friendly staff (especially Debbie on reception), clean facilities and great fishing. Our second stay at Sumners Ponds, but our first in a Pod (6), as we have camped previously.An excellently positioned Pod, which had a dedicated parking space, picnic table and fishing platform on the Farm Pond with great fishing, particularly dawn and dusk and the best bait was meat.Perfect for a short weekend getaway with my Son for a lovely Father and Son fishing weekend. The pod is certainly more soundproof than we are used to in a tent!As with all campsites, the atmosphere changes depending on who the other campers are, and mid-week in term time is nice and peaceful, with weekends being a little busier and noisier, but all guests were well behaved and adhered to the curfew even during the World Cup!We will be back for a third visit, without a doubt.

Staff were very professional and friendly The shower block was always exceptionally clean and l did manage to pass on my appreciation to a member of staff. The whole sight was well looked after and organised. My only concern was lovely missed the entrance due to the ongoing work, a temporary sign would help

This was my third visit with my son, who is a keen fisherman. As a Mum visiting with a child, I need an environment that is safe and welcoming and caters for women to stay there too.......very unusual for most fishing lakes. The restaurant is great, the food is great, the facilities are clean, the pods are lovely and warm for a bit of Autumn/Early Spring fishing, and the WiFi works!

Have been staying at Sumners for years. Sadly its idealic countryside feel has gone due to over development. The new housing estate at the entrance and parts of the complex have ruined the secluded charm the place once had. It’s a real shame as it was once a place to escape too and now feels like a over commercialised urban park.

Love this place!Stayed in a pod on Farm pond. It was clean and cosy. The facilities on site are second to none. Clean toilets and showers and the cafe is lovely. The staff are wonderful all round from the moment you check in.The fishing on Farm Pond is great fun. It's a little small but there are bigger lakes on site to choose from too.Thanks to Sumners for another great stay.. see you soon! x
