Is oxylers really as muddy/ flood prone as I'm led to believe ?

[Seasider]

As the title says a large group of us around 20 are arriving Tuesday night and aiming for a good campspot as close together as possible and as close to the action as possible.

My instinct says oxylers , others say pennards . Both seem fine to me providing pennard isn't actually as hilly as the name sounds ?

 

However alot of concerns on the internet and in my social circle are saying oxylers gets muddy and very muddy really easily.

 

I just can't see it personally with only odd showers here and there fore cast , plus the ground will be rock solid currently with the heat wave.

 

I've only been once and camped in pylon ground far to far away.

 

Thanks in advance

Pennards is on a hill, Oxylers isn't but gets wet.  You takes ya chances... I know which I'd go for this weekend given the weather forecast!

How steep is the hill ? 

So much of a hill you wouldn't want to camp sideways on it ?

Here’s Pennards. It’s quite gradual but still a hill. I’ve camped here before and didn’t notice a slope. It’s very much a party camp.

Have camped in Oxlyers every year since 09 and I've never personally noticed it be worse than any other campsite on the muddy years. With the weather forecast this weekend I doubt there will be enough rain to cause a mudbath in the campsites.
