Fallow Fields - Selson Farm

Μου άρεσε clean facilities (upon arrival at least)

Δεν μου άρεσε About anything else. The noise (radio sports news, screaming children till 11 pm), parents emptiing pots with the pee of their children in the grass between the pitches (how disgusting), felt like in a crazy Disney Land. NOT suitable for couples, NOT suitable for campervans, crazily expensive for not even offering waste water disposal and chemical toilet. Fled after 1 night, had paid for 2, had never got a response if I could cancel the 2nd night. Poor service, incompetent and stressed out personnel.

Από τον διαχειριστή: Dear Sabine,

Thank you for your review although we are disappointed you did not enjoy your stay with us. We are unashamedly family focussed and make this very clear on our website and marketing material. You obviously booked by mistake which we could have sorted out on arrival if you had asked. The staff had told us you had left but you had not made them aware of your other complaints, which are much better resolved face to face.

We are sorry you did not enjoy your stay but are grateful you recognised the cleanliness of our facilities and our family friendly focus.

Best wishes
Aly

Μου άρεσε Charming location

Friendly staff

Breakfast tent and early evening bar

Very confident location for Margate, Richborough, Walmer etc.

Clean toilet facilities

We got lucky in that the adjacent pitch to ours was not occupied, which gave us more privacy than we would otherwise have had

Δεν μου άρεσε It would have been useful to have had the shop fully stocked with meat such as sausages and burgers etc. These had run out by the time we arrived. I am sure they would have no problems selling these if they ensured a ready supply.

I always think there are never enough toilet cubicles on these places. There seemed to be 3x men’s and 3x women’s which doesn’t give much resilience.

Από τον διαχειριστή: Hi! Thank you for the review. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the location of our site, our friendly team and what we had to offer here at Fallow Fields!
We also appreciate your constructive comments and can only apologise that we had run out of fresh meat; demand is high, however we will definitely review how to keep the stock up during busy times. Regarding the toilets, we have 4 women’s cubicles, 3 men’s cubicles plus a urinal, and a family restroom. The recommended ratio of toilets to pitches is 1:30. Here at Fallow Fields we have a ratio of 1:15 pitches which is twice the recommendation. We do understand that these can feel busier during peak times.

Μου άρεσε Such a lovely campsite, staff were so lovely and helpful giving a awesome atmosphere. It was very clean.
The shop, food place, bar, games were a very welcome addition.
Archery was brilliant.

Δεν μου άρεσε I disliked the amount of mosquitos but can't be helped just take bug spray etc!!!

Από τον διαχειριστή: Thank you so much for this glowing review David. We really appreciate your kind words & are delighted that you enjoyed everything that Fallow Fields had to offer. We hope to have you back again!

Μου άρεσε This was our second trip to Fallow Fields. It is a lovely clean and welcoming site with very friendly staff and good clean facilities.
The field kitchen serves the best wood fired pizza I’ve ever had and the bar has a good selection of drinks.
Very much looking forward to coming back again.

Δεν μου άρεσε I feel the shop has a limited variety for people who are traveling light and it would be handy if they took cash, or at least advertise that it’s a card only site.

Από τον διαχειριστή: Hi Marc, thank you so much for your review, we’re glad you enjoyed all of our facilities and the friendly customer service we offer.

Μου άρεσε Busy weekend in school holidays
Staff friendly and efficient
Toilet block cleaned first thing in the morning.

Δεν μου άρεσε Septic tank smell

Από τον διαχειριστή: Hi, thank you for the feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed our site and would recommend us to your friends. Regarding the smell, we hope it didn’t affect your stay, however, onsite storage is the reality of rural locations that offer ‘like home’ facilities, and you can get the odd whiff!

Μου άρεσε Felt literally like a fallow field - tall grasses surrounding each pitch, and a short distance to the facilities and office/shop where all essentials could be found.

Δεν μου άρεσε Background road noise from time to time
