What customers say

Great family spot! Clean pods, friendly staff, fab pool & bar. Mostly well-equipped, though some get a bit warm. Generally tidy, but a few shower block mould/maintenance hiccups. Good base for coast trips (car recommended). Arcade fun, but food's pricey & entertainment's a bit thin for some.

Camping pod

Liked Very clean and a really friendly staff team to make you feel welcome. However, there are too many camping pods all clustered together. Coming from London, glamping is meant to be a beautiful, in the open outdoors experience. We felt like we’d entered a city of glampers.
In fact the layout of the park including camping pods and caravans/lodges needs more thought as it’s all too claustrophobic.

Camping pod

Liked We arrived early however that wasn't a problem, and the reception staff was very friendly and helpful. We went for a run around the park and then a dive in the pool.
The lifeguards were wonderful.
The evening entertainment that we saw, were very good. And the kids club staff when seen had brilliant reflexs and thought well on their feet.

Disliked Unfortunately the food for my children wasn't brilliant, Very limited and with very active children not a huge amount on the planet.
More could be done with keeping the empty glasses off the outside tables.
The toilet block looked clean until you really looked. There was smears down the toilet walls and there wasn't any soap.

Camping pod

Liked Good location for nearby towns

Disliked Door to pod was broken and boarded up with plywood. Shower block poor. Urinal broken. Cheap bottle of wine as compensation in pod on arrival but hot as cabin was super hot. But a gesture i suppose. Showers on push tap but did not stay on so need to constantly hold in. Left after 1st night for local hotel . Apart from that ok.

Liked Camping pod. Cleanliness. Staff

Disliked That you cannot walk safely from the campsite. There was no pavement & busy road outside. No mention of this on website. I'd probably have booked somewhere else if I'd known.

Local attractions

There's heaps to do for all ages and inclinations around this part of Kent coast and Kent countryside. All ages should have a hoot at Margate, with its lengthy sandy beach to bask on as well as a scenic harbour which should be your scenic spot for Margate fish and chips. Also on your list should be the Dreamland Amusement Park, then a jaw-dropped look at an attraction of a completely different vibe but a spectacular sight: the famed Shell Grotto and its huge mosaics made up of over four and a half million shells. Like quite a few fascinating things in humankind's history (aka, Stonehenge), no-one quite knows who put the shells there or why: let the kids enthral you with their increasingly bonkers theories while there. Family day trips include Diggerland, to drive full-sized diggers; Leeds Castle and Go Ape, and the 28 acres of grounds at Kent Life, the open-air museum and heritage farm park on the bank of the River Medway. All are 50 minutes' drive away. Canterbury and the Canterbury Tales are half an hour's drive away.
