  • "The site was nice and flat! And the trees around the site helped minimise the wind."
  • "Both the site and toilets are very clean and well serviced."
  • "Facilities were all lovely and clean."
  • "Very clean toilets and showers."

Cons:

  • "The only negative I would say is the need for more showers and toilets, during busy times we had to queue for a while for the shower."
  • "Shower and toilets didn't appear to get cleaned as regularly as I'd have liked."
  • "The showers and toilets could do with some updating but on the whole were very nice and usable."
  • "On site cafe 0/10."
  • "The showers. The pressure was non existent and could flow slightly to a dribble."
  • "Although the floors where cleaned by the man working there the toilets where not cleaned under the seats/ round the back of the toilet seat for the time we where there."
  • "Toilet and shower facilities were poor especially when compared to the number of pitches."

Staff and Management

Pros:

  • "The hosts were so welcoming and helpful."
  • "The couple, Andy and Louise running the place, were so helpful and nice."
  • "Staff were really friendly, helpful and attentive."
  • "The very relaxed and friendly owners."

  • "All staff were pleasant and helpful and checking in and out was easy and straightforward."
  • "The management team of Andy and Louise are very friendly and welcoming, always approachable and engaging with a smile."

Cons:

  • "Had many dogs running around off lead even though there are so many signs that all dogs must be on a lead."
  • "Some owners did not keep their dogs on leads so they ran around the site and in some cases fouled the grass outside other people's tents."
  • "We were reprimanded at around 10:45 for playing a word game and listening to music; which was not loud; by a very disgruntled camper halfway across the campsite."
  • "The staff seemed welcoming although complained in front of guests queuing for facilities that too much toilet roll was being used."
  • "In conclusion, I would not recommend this campsite if you have kids as we found it difficult to obey the rules and have fun at the same time."
  • "All site is covered in signs: do not do this, do not do that... no water balloons, no football for children etc."
  • "The only issue we had was Friday night there were two loud groups playing music in the early hours, and seemed not to care about the 11pm quiet time."

Facilities and Amenities

Pros:

  • "You can hire little fire pits to keep you warm in the evening."
  • "Onsite kitchen cabin which is a bonus with fridge/freezer, toaster and microwave."
  • "An on site cafe was an additional bonus."
  • "The campsite has well maintained, excellent facilities including communal kitchen, laundrette, and spotless shower/toilets."
  • "The facilities are good and clean and although there isn't a large number of showers, there was never a queue."
  • "The reception and info hut offer basic supplies, information and fridge/microwave with books and maps etc."
  • "They hire fire pits and provide wood if you want it."

Cons:

  • "Only 5 showers on site for many guests also same with toilets. 5 toilets for the amount of people didn’t seem like enough."
  • "There are only 7 toilets and 2 urinals and 4 showers for all of the people staying there."
  • "Could do with a 2nd toilet block at the far end of the site."
  • "Facilities are a little limited, and basic - you'd be joining a queue if all 50 pitches were occupied."
  • "Maybe some portable loos may have been a good idea with the new rules of shutting the block each time a person uses either a toilet or shower."
  • "Toilets/ showers. Just wasn’t enough for a whole campsite."
  • "However, the site could benefit from having a free wifi service and possibly a small children’s play area."

Location and Accessibility

Pros:

  • "Lovely pitch overlooking wheat fields."
  • "Amazing location, with only 10 minutes drive to Camber Sands."
  • "The site is situated perfectly within 10 mins drive of Camber sands beach and also Dymchurch."
  • "A great base for beaches."
  • "Very peacefully located in the middle of farmers field this very spacious caravan/motorhome park is perfectly placed far enough back from the road you barely notice the traffic."
  • "Great location for exploring on bikes."
  • "The campsite is located very handily for the beaches at Camber, Greatstone and St Mary’s Bay."

Cons:

  • "The country walks are all across farm land, rather than woods etc. Not ideal to let the dog off lead."
  • "Nearest town was a nice walk but if you wanted to go further without the use of a car it was very difficult."
  • "Restricted gate opening times. Had to be there by 7.30pm or I was told don’t turn up till next day."
  • "A bit of the distance to the toilets from the tent pitches."
  • "With no light interference at night it was wonderful to gaze up at the stars on clear nights and that made it very special."
  • "There isn't any site wi-fi and the phone signal isn't brilliant."
  • "Only a 20 minute walk across the fields to New Romney where there are shops, restaurants, coffee shops and a couple of pubs."
