What customers say
This spacious and relaxed campsite offers a natural, rustic experience with friendly staff and a convenient on-site food van and cafe. Guests appreciate the open fields, fire pits, and nearby walking routes. While facilities are generally clean and functional, some reviews mention them as basic or dated, with occasional issues regarding hot water or maintenance. The site's location near Hever Castle is popular, though proximity to Gatwick Airport means some noise is to be expected. Management is responsive to feedback, with ongoing site improvements.

Liked Staff at check in were lovely, showers and toilets on site were an unexpected bonus. Food van being on site was a real treat.
Disliked The facilities probably needed a bit of love and attention, although they were clean it was clear they are well used.
The biggest downside for us was that the site was largely left to manage itself which meant that there were large group bookings. One of which was playing relatively loud music (presumably it was some sort of celebration) until midnight - it wasn't ideal when you've got kids you're trying to get to sleep.

From the manager: Thanks very much for your review. We are so pleased that you liked the staff, showers and food van.
We are always updating the site, such as adding the sink with running water to the Pond Field and a shower will also be in the field soon. The Farm Field toilets are due for works at the end of the season. They are attended regularly to make sure they are fully stocked and clean.
We find that most campers enjoy the option of where to camp, rather than having set pitches.
I am sorry to hear that someone did not adhere to our stringent rules on noise. I myself was in the field at 11pm when quiet hours commence and I could not hear the music. I can assure you that staff are on duty 24hrs a day and if your concern was raised when on site, we would've dealt with it swiftly. We are a family campsite first and foremost.
I am sorry that you feel that you needed to wait until writing a review to voice your worries, rather than speaking with us- we are very understanding and approachable!
All the best and kind regards.

Liked Family friendly even thought we just booked as 2 adults, clean and the showers are huge.
Great it has a food & drinks are which we didnt use but saw others.
Great stay to try out a new local site.
Disliked Ii was a bit shocked driving in to feel it felt like a scrap yard, but realised it was old tractors and a jet engine, pallets of bricks etc, just seemed a bit odd really. htne turned into the field which was spacious.

A very nice clean welcoming camp site with a good energy, poor fishing
Anonymous Farm field non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Easy to find with google maps. Very straight forward and nice check in service. The field was very clean and tidy and facilities were good. Staff were friendly and helpful.
Disliked Booked the site due to the on site fishing pond. The pond was not in the best condition. We had to access it via a very unkept pathway either down a steep bank through overgrown bushes and grass with no real steps, or hop over a broken section of the perimeter fence to a small bank area.
The site recommends booking the fishing pond in advance and charges per rod but with limited sign posting, broken and unkept fences and a lack of areas around the pond to fish from, I’m not sure where the money goes.
The fishing was one of the reasons I chose this camp site but was also the only thing that let the trip down.
