What customers say
This is a friendly, family-oriented campsite with a peaceful atmosphere, located close to woods and towns like Whitstable and Canterbury. Visitors praise the helpful staff, the on-site cafe and pizza, and the animals for children. Pitches are generally well-sized. Facilities, particularly toilets and showers, are often described as basic and could benefit from an upgrade, with occasional issues reported regarding cleanliness and water pressure. Despite this, many guests found it great value and would return.

Fabulous little campsite, very close to Canterbury and whitstable.
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Great little campsite. Friend, descent size pitch, lovely coffee hut and pizza oven at weekend.
Disliked Not a dislike, but a note for others, the site is extremely child friendly, which is lovely, just lively! Fun environment.
Could do with a few more toilets and showers, as it got very busy and messy quickly.

Great location, great walks, good pizza and lovey little cafe :-)
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Everything, Staff, Pizzas, Cafe.....The location is great for walking into Blean woods. We walked to Staple street to visit the Three Horseshoes, the Red Lion in Hernehill and the Dove at Dargate. All easily accessible with (mainly) off road routes through the woods, fields and orchards. All these pubs are within an hours walk or so from the campsite. You could easily walk to Mount Ephraim Gardens too.
Disliked Nothing at all.

Great site for weekend getaway, we'll definitely look to return.
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked We loved this site. Pitches are nicely laid out with a large space of grass which is kept clear in the middle of the field - allowing for a nice space. Good for families as this gave kids space to play.
The takeaway pizza is a fantastic addition - they were really tasty and worked perfectly with a camp set up. Little cafe was nice too.
Facilities were all clean and I was never waiting.
The owners are clearly working hard to make a good site for the visitors and all the staff were friendly.
It's really close to both Whitstable and Canterbury. Perfect for a short get away in the tent.
Disliked There are plenty of facilities and proper toilets. I thought they could do with a slight upgrade, we struggled with water pressure when washing up and in the shower. However, and to be fair, my wife thought they were suitable and didn't have any issues with them - so it could be my harsh opinion!
That being said, the facilities were all really clean and looked after. This 'dislike' isn't strong enough to stop us returning.
