A note from the site themselves...

Where else do you have acres and acres of private fields and woodland to enjoy? Our greatest joy is seeing the delight on camper's faces when they realise how much private land (400 acres) they have to enjoy here. The feeling of space, peace and seeing the many bird species that the woods are home to.

Bring your binoculars and camera if you like nature spotting, there are many wild species that are resident. Many families travel from urban areas, so it is like stepping into another world for them, and it gives us great pleasure give them this freedom from their usual environment. The Hop Farm is your own garden of England to enjoy during your stay.

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesOct 2024

A good place to stay for good value of money. It could be a bit more for kids to play, i.e. the facilities. However, as a place for a group of friends or a weekend away. It's ideal.

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass PitchesSep 2024

The only thing I would comment on negatively is the toilet/shower areas. They need checking on in more regular intervals.

Site's response

Thank you for choosing to stay with us, especially out of season. We do rely on guests informing us if the showers/toilets need attention in-between cleaning. If unable to come into the office, our mobile number is printed on the front of everyone`s check-in cards. We hope you will visit us again.

Lovely, well kept, large fields that allowed us to keep ourselves away from everyone else so as not to disturb.
