About the site
Nestled just ten minutes from the glorious Kent coast, this family friendly site provides a peaceful base for exploring the Garden of England. Based on a 383 acre farm, numerous footpaths link to the farm, perfect for exploring the beautiful surrounding countryside, or hop on your bike and take the 'Pier to Parlour' route into Deal. For tents, campervans, motorhomes and caravans the site has a range of grass pitches, each allowing up to four guests. If you are travelling in a large group, the site also has three pitches in the paddock area which can accommodate up to 15 guests. When the weather warms up, the onsite ice cream parlour is perfect for a delicious treat. Spoil yourself with an ice cream sundae, a full English or a tasty panini or toastie. There is even an onsite pub where you can enjoy an evening tipple, with live entertainment every other Friday night. The site also offers tractor rides in peak season, a great way to see the farm in style. BBQs are also allowed onsite so don't forget to bring the cool box. Please note, campfires and fire pits are not permitted. Four-legged friends can also join you for your stay with up to two allowed per pitch.

We only stayed here for one night, it was very cold and windy that day, unfortunately. The location is great for the east coast, close to Deal, Dover, Sandwich etc. Site was very quiet with only a few pitches in use, so can't comment how it would be in peak season. Our pitch was perfect for our use. Facilities were very clean, although only 2 were in use, due to the low number of pitches in use, so to be expected. No issues at all. On site pub was lovely and friendly staff, both there and in the ice cream parlour. Very nice ice creams!
