  • Grass pitches at a 21-acre farm site in the Weald of Kent
  • A 10-minute drive from Headcorn Aerodrome and Sissinghurst Castle
  • Quiet site with ponds on site; two miles from High Halden and A28
Brickhouse Farm has grass pitches within the grounds of a farm in the Weald of Kent two miles from the village of High Halden, and about 15 minutes’ drive from Ashford. Accessed via a quiet country lane but close to the A28, this is a site that’s part of a 21-acre farmstead made up of pastureland and fishing ponds. At the centre of the property is a Grade II listed farmhouse, and there’s also a classic Kentish barn on site along with an assortment of farm buildings. The pitches here are simple in style but with access to water, a cesspit and a toilet and shower block that’s been done up to a very high standard. Barbecues are permitted (pick up supplies 10 minutes away on Tenterden’s lovely high street) and the area’s peppered with pubs catering for all tastes, styles and price levels. It’s easy to fill your days with fresh air around here – there are plenty of places to stroll or cycle in the nearby High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and a couple of golf courses within a few minutes’ drive. If you’re feeling brave perhaps fling yourself out of a plane at Headcorn Aerodrome; if not, perhaps sampling the wine at the local vineyard would be more your style. Other days out? Maybe gorgeous Leeds Castle, a shopping spree at Ashford’s designer outlets or a big cat encounter at an animal park? Or of course you could head down to Ashford and jump on the high-speed train for a trip to London – the capital’s only about 35 minutes away.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Wonderfully quiet and beautiful campsite, plenty of space between pitches, fish food available for £1, spotless toilets and showers, attentive and thoughtful host. Brilliant campsite!

We stayed for a long weekend as a large family group with young children and teenagers and visited the Weald of Kent Steam show just 10 mins down the road on our way home.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked A second visit to this huge open camping space, lots of privacy and never overcrowded. The facilities are much nicer than those on a regular campsite. It was lovely to spend the hot evenings sitting by the ponds feeding the fish. Gillian is the most wonderful human and host, she genuinely cares for all her customers. It was a joy to see her again.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Quiet and small site with immaculately clean facilities. The site has ponds with fish to look at.
The camp field is used to grow hay and once harvested becomes the camp site. Some uneven ground and a few spikey thick plants which could damage the tent if you’re not careful so check pitch before putting tents up.
Host is super friendly.
For a quiet no frills camping experience, I highly recommend.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked A warm welcome, excellent shower and toilet facilities, level camping field, picnic tables under the trees. No road noise and plenty of good walks in the area.

Disliked Very poor O2, Vodafone and EE broadband signal obviously not the site owner fault.
The two big washing up sinks with hot and cold water are handy, but only one has taps. Perhaps change the "untapped" one for a draining board or put one on top?

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Beautiful location with all amenities, including a newly refurbished shower block and toilets. Dogs allowed on leads, and there is a nice footpath walk nearby for letting dogs run off-lead. Would definitely go back!

Disliked Not the owners fault at all, but due to the dry weather the field was very dry and cracked, making big holes which were a little treacherous to walk across, especially in the dark!
