Why choose Uckfield for your road trip

Uckfield — a city worth exploring

Uckfield's Luxford Field sits at the heart of a market town that has served the Sussex Weald since the 13th century, when iron-working first shaped its economy. Today the town makes a relaxed base for exploring the rolling countryside of East Sussex. The Uckfield Picture House, one of the oldest purpose-built cinemas in the country, still screens films in its original 1915 auditorium. A short walk along the River Uck leads you to Bridge Cottage, a timber-framed building dating from the 16th century, while Holy Cross Church crowns the High Street with views across the Weald. For a grander day out, Sheffield Park and Garden lies just 8 km to the south-west, offering 120 acres of landscaped grounds linked to the Bluebell Railway, a heritage steam line that runs through to East Grinstead. Lewes, the historic county town, is only 13 km to the south, where you can visit Lewes Castle and the medieval streets around the Barbican. The surrounding lanes are narrow in places, so a compact campervan suits the area well, though wider roads connect you quickly to the A22 and A26. Hiring a motorhome through Yescapa means you can pick up from a local owner who knows which routes work best for larger vehicles. With a campervan as your base, you wake up in the countryside and reach the South Downs or the coast within half an hour.

Best time to visit

Uckfield comes alive in late May during the Uckfield Festival, a week of live music, art and community events spread across the town. The Bonfire Night celebrations in Lewes each November, just 13 km south, are among the most spectacular in England and well worth the short drive. Summer months offer the longest daylight for exploring the South Downs by campervan, and campsites across the Weald are open with full facilities. For quieter roads and easier pitch availability, spring and autumn are ideal. Hiring through Yescapa outside peak season often means more choice and better value from local owners in the Uckfield area.
