Greatstone beach is just 300 yards away and turns to sand dunes a quarter mile up the coast

  • Dog-friendly park an hour from London and 300 yards from the beach
  • Clubhouse including kids' corner with TV, video games and pool tables
  • Hot showers, football pitch and dog-walking area
Frazzled by capital city life but don't want to spend six or seven hours driving to a holiday by the seaside? Come and be dazzled by New Romney Caravan Park in Kent, a piffling hour from London and another piffling 300 yards from the two-mile stretch and sandy dunes of Greatstone beach. It's all family-run by a team which does its utmost to ensure guests do like to be beside the seaside, mixing a rural Kent Marshes setting with up-to-date comfy facilities and stuff to do on site. The level grass accommodation field catches the evening sun (for snoozes in deckchairs while someone else sorts out the barbie), and has easy access to the park toilets, hot showers, launderette and washing-up facilities as well as a roomy football pitch for the kids and/or energetic parents. If you're bringing the dog, a spacious area has been set aside on site for walks (Greatstone beach a couple of minutes' walk away is dog-friendly too; woof). And if you want to keep the kids busy, take the crew along to the Hoy Club clubhouse, which serves meals and snacks, and comes with a separate area for the kids to expend energy: a TV, interactive video games and pool tables are all here to tire them out nicely. Coffee is served here from 10am to noon on Saturdays and Sundays to give your weekend mornings a boost of caffeine.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Near the beach, dog friendly, lovely staff. Spar shop at the end of the road should you run out of anything. Clubhouse is dog friendly. Garden areas kept nice and clean and the grass is cut regularly, handy when you are on a grass pitch. Quiet after 11pm.

Disliked Not the sites fault but some very noisy neighbours to us. We asked to move and they found us a space which was great. Not everyone picked up their dog mess, again not the sites fault, although there are lots of bins around.

Electric grass pitch

Liked We stayed on an electric pitch that was spacious and level the site is very well maintained, the toilets and shower blocks are nice and clean,the staff at reception are very friendly and ready to help,the site also has a onsite club house that has seating inside and out,the bar inside is ready to serve you a nice cold beer and also take your order for food from the menu which we thoroughly enjoyed, also the great thing about this site is it's literally a stones throw to an amazing beach, this has been our fourth time staying at NEW ROMNEY SANDS HOLIDAY PARK and it has become one of our favourite sites that we will return to again and again.

Local attractions

Active types can take their pick from land and water activities in the area, such as pedalling the many flat bike routes or walking along the old military canal of Romney Marsh, and viewsome golf at the championship golf course at Littlestone between Romney Marsh and the English Channel. Zip along in a jetski on the surface of nearby Lydd Lake or at Greatstone beach, also properly gorgeous for kicking up sand on horseback. On the water, have at it at kitesurfing, sailing, or sea fishing for eels, school bass and whiting (dig in the flats at low tide to find lugworm to use as bait). Dungeness, a few miles along the coast, and lovely Dover a 45-minute drive away are both great to cast off from too: fish for mackerel at Dungeness in summer or for bass closer to shore; and mackerel, bass, dogfish, cod and plaice from the Prince of Wales and Admiralty Pier at Dover. This is a cracking region for species spotting with nature reserves at both New Romney and Dungeness (look out for the lighthouse at the latter), and hundreds of thousands of migrating seabirds landing on the Kent Marshes every winter. The butterflies and falcons of the Rare Breeds Centre at Ashford are also well worth a squint.
