Peaceful retreat, rural campsite close to North Downs Way
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked We've stayed at Little Lynton Acres several times now. Facilities (shower and toilets) are always well stocked and clean. The site is generally quiet and peaceful for the perfect laid back stay. Very near to Hythe and farm shops. The owners, Kay and Chris do a great job in welcoming campers and caravanners and are always helpful.
Disliked Leaving, always.
Overnight before tunnel
Electric optional grass touring pitch
Liked Friendly welcome. Spacious pitch. 20 mins from tunnel.
Disliked Noise after 11pm. Dog constantly barking (not from campsite). Motorbike revving and riding through field?
Great.

Liked There was an ice cream fridge which ice creams could be purchased from for very good prices. The toilets were clean. The site was very tidy and had a good location.
Disliked Nothing.
A lovely stay for a great price
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked We like the location - it is very conveniently situated near Dover and Folkestone, and also has a beautiful view of the hills. The hosts are very friendly. Facilities are functional and water is really hot. Their kitchen also includes a fridge, which came in handy on several occasions.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Facilities just what you need - shower, couple of toilets, water, communal fridge/freezer, washing up area. Clearly marked pitches - could feel a bit cramped if full and lots of big tents, but equally plenty of space in the middle of the field to spread out into.
Great for children - plenty of games etc available plus woods with a swing, fairy doors and meadow to explore.
A great place for camping!

Disliked Only 1 small shower

During the stay i did hear what sounded like dogs fighting and then one was crying for a uncomfortable amount of time as if it was in pain or stressed, wasnt sure what to do or if it was owner of the pitch or someone staying. Also heard what sounded like a woman shouting at the dog a few times which i didnt particularly enjoy hearing, bit unpleasant but hopefully it was an isolated incident and not the owners dogs...
Lovely site, friendly owners.
Electric optional grass touring pitch
Liked Lovely small peaceful site. Friendly owners. Good location - we visited port lympne safari park but lots more to see. Very basic but lovely clean facilities. Would have been useful to have directions explained as our satnav directed us down a very narrow lane - to avoid just needed to take next junction on motorway.
Lovely little site, perfect for a few days away from the world.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Easy to find, the facilities were very clean, even a fridge/ freezer for communal use, friendly owners, cute little fairy trail in the woods. Everywhere was gated and people were letting there kids go off to play in the woods/ fields so I would say a very secure site (but I didn’t take any kids so can’t say for sure)
Our pitch looked flat but where we positioned our tent and got in, we were slightly down hill, but nothing a quick turn around off the airbed couldn’t fix.
We only stayed 3 nights, but could have happily stayed for more.
Can’t comment on the WiFi as we didn’t ask for the code- but I imagine it would be ok if they supply it, as we had 4/5g most the time.
Disliked A little shop on site would be a game changer! (More our fault for not being prepared)
