Liked: Loved the amount of activities on offer. My children did bushcraft session which they loved and gave us 90 mins peace. The soft play was great and it was handy having a small shop and bar. The place felt safe and the showers were actually hot which was great.

Liked: Loved how peaceful, spacious, clean and safe the area and the surrounding facilities were. We camped for the first time ever.

Disliked: Some adults and children didn't respect the 10.30pm quiet rule and were laughing or running around at midnight. Not good if you want to get a good sleep

Liked: The site is a wonderful size, the playing fields and areas for children are great. The touches like family movie on a Saturday night, the pizzas and the cafe in the shop are brilliant. The facilities are to a lovely standard and the showers are powerful and hot (if a little too warm sometimes which is unheard of camping).

Disliked: We booked as a group via pitch-up and despite following instructions on here we weren’t next to those we were going with. We weren’t too far away and it worked ok, but apparently you can pay to book a specific pitch via their direct website, which meant no pitches next to each other were available, despite booking months in advance.

Lovely place for families, would go back.

Liked: Lovely field and things for children such as soft play, swing ball, giant drafts and badminton. Plus bookable activities. A well stocked shop and some cooked food options. I was worried about not being able to park up next to pitch but you could drive up to unload and car park was really nearby so it wasn't a problem at all. Washing up station good. The views were lovely and near Port Lympne. Friendly helpful staff.

Disliked: Toilets and water tap in the field weren't operational so had to walk to the main block. Toilets and showers were OK but could have been a bit better maintained. It wouldn't put me off going but the children were scared to use them because of the spiders! Activities too expensive.

Local attractions

Plumes of steam are often visible from Fallow Fields Lathe Barn, as trains from the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway trundle their way along just a short distance away. If you fancy riding the rails, the nearest station is in Dymchurch (five minutes' drive), where there is also a sandy beach and visitor centre with plenty to see and do. Alternatively, you could head out on a safari at Port Lympne Reserve‍ (10 minutes), a popular breeding sanctuary that's home to rare and endangered animals such as tigers, rhinos, zebras, gorillas and bears. If extinct animals are more your (or your kids') jam, there's also a dinosaur forest where you can stomp through the trees in search of T-Rex and pterodactyls. Heading slightly further afield, you could explore the seaside towns of Folkestone (25 minutes), a treasure trove of vintage clothes, fab furniture finds and tasty street food. Alternatively, there's the old fishing village of Dungeness (25 minutes) with its vast shingle beach and the far-off shadow of its power station. Wherever you end up exploring, don't forget the pretty town of Hythe (10 minutes) with its well-preserved medieval and Georgian buildings.
