About The Sunny Field
A family-friendly, off-grid camping and glamping site surrounded by the idyllic countryside of the Kent Downs and easy reach from the coast. You're also close to walking and cycling routes on the nearby North Downs Way. Welcoming tents and campervans (in their own dedicated zone), the camping pitches are set on an 8-acre car-free meadow. There is plenty of space with a range of pitch sizes to suit most guests, and as car-free camping, wheelbarrows are provided for ease. Pitches also include a fire pit for those looking to toast marshmallows as the sun goes down. If you're looking for a bit of luxury on your camping holiday, stay in one of the 5m bell tents. Each one has its own unique interior with exciting themes ranging from 'Alice in Wonderland to 'Under the Sea'. Inside, the bell tents are furnished with fresh bed linen and come with everything you need, including a gas stove. Don't forget to bring your toothbrush and towels. Children can run free, and dogs are welcome. The site can accommodate groups together, including glampers and campervans.
