Thinking of taking my Besties camping for the weekend. But I am struggling to find a site in the Kent/East Sussex area that takes single sex parties. We are all nearly 30 so not exactly going to cause a huge problem/noise! hehe. Anybody know of any?

large groups can be rowdy regardless of age, in fact it's probably the rowdier the older they are!

You will have to convince a site that you will adhere to whatever their quiet time is (usually 10 or 11pm) and maybe you could offer to pay a deposit to that effect.

If you were able to say you were affiliated with some sort of group - ie Mums from a parent and toddler group, or a fundraising team for a particular charity or something similar. I'm not saying to make something up, but you might well all have a common interest (other than wine) than binds your group together. Re-union perhaps?

Having been there myself many times over the years, I can tell you that regardless of what there site says (to cover their backs) there is always a few groups on there partying - often all night. It's well known for it.

However my "sounds like a job for shell island" was meant sarcastically, I would not really recommend it. The obvious choice would be one of those massive party sites near New quay Cornwall - hideous meat farms, favoured by stag do's, but great for a groups of young people wanting to party. If that's what your looking for :)

Have you tried PARK FARM BODIAM CARAVAN AND CAMPING. Its in East Sussex. It gets mixed reviews but it does accept groups, and the people who camp in a group seem to be the ones who enjoy it most.

It is hard to find a site that will accept groups. When I have tried to book somewhere for my extended family group it has been quite a challenge. Try looking for sites that don't have numbered/allocated pitches. They will usually allow you to pitch your tents together.

Have you tried Welsummer? Lovely quiet site (assuming that's what you're after)
