What customers say
Well-kept site, roomy pitches, friendly vibe. Owners are accommodating. Hear big cats & see planes! Showers/toilets clean. Road/train noise noted but often unobtrusive. One felt it wasn't family-friendly due to noise rules.

A brilliant glamping experience with wonderful hosts and facilities
Bell tent (four person)
Liked Let's be honest, Tony the Pony (the on-site Shetland) is the real star of this show.
But, him aside, everything here is excellent. The facilities are clean well maintained and there is everything you could need, including a fully stocked kitchen and massive communal fridge.
The bell tent we stayed in was massive, clean and in very good condition.
The hosts were lovely and could have been more helpful, and hearing the lions roaring at night was a real treat, the cherry on the top of an already wonderful experience.
Will absolutely be back, and I'm already looking forward to it.

Will 100% be back for a few visits in 2027
Frogdale cabin
Liked The hosts Alan and Kim are great with nothing too much effort for you.
Roaring Big Cats from the Sanctuary next door while sat outside chilling in the evening with a glass of Rum was fabulous, close you eyes and you could have been in Kenya or somewhere!
During the day watching the wing walkers on the biplanes from a local airfield was pretty cool too. No WiFi was bliss, so don’t think about sitting on your phone the time you are there.
Disliked Nothing other than the parking in Headcorn is mental (for the Take aways) but not Go Glamps fault obviously.

1 bedroom shepherd's hut
Liked Spacious pitches, owners on hand , enjoyed pizza Friday & Pimm's Saturday a lovely touch. Walked to pretty Smarden &the flying horse were the friendly landlord gave us a lift back to the campsite in his black cab(free of charge). Roaring lions, parachutes &hot air balloons all from the comfort of our pitch.
Disliked The half open gate would be slightly difficult to manoeuvre if you have a motorhome,

Liked Hele aardige en attente eigenaar. De ruime plekken en ruime opzet van de camping. De tijger geluiden van de opvang aan de andere kant van het spoor.
Disliked Er loopt een best drukke weg pal langs de eerste 7 plekken. Aan de andere kant een spoorlijn die in de piek momenten een trein per 10 minuten heeft. ‘s nachts gelukkig niet.

Great site perfect for families!
Bell tent (four person)
Liked Beautiful camp site with the most friendly and accommodating owners. We absolutely loved everything about this site from the super cosy and spacious bell tents, to the lions roaring in the morning and watching the sun rise as paragliders filled the sky. Alan and Kim went above and beyond though out our stay and the kids especially loved the departing tour on Alan's golf buggy!
The camp site itself is really clean with very well looked after amenities including hot showers and super clean toilets.
There is a very handy communal kitchen area which had everything you could think of and we were so grateful of the fridge space which is unheard of at most sites. Thank you again for a truly memorable camping experience.
Disliked Loved everything and couldn't fault it.

Power optional grass tent or RV campsite
Liked Nice site
Near to Headcorn airfield and the Big Cat Sauntuary so was entertained with roars of lions and many small aircraft - wing walkers, parachutes, helicopters.
Owners lovely and welcoming. Checking often that we were all ok.
Disliked Near road so noisy sometimes.

Brilliant campsite and great stay!
Power optional grass tent or RV campsite
Liked Alan and Kim were great hosts. We booked an electric tent pitch and when we arrived we found that our own electric hook wasn’t working and Alan was able to provide us with one of his own so we didn’t go without. Massive thank you for this!
The whole site was cleaned and maintained very well and the facilities were everything you could need!
With the location of the site, our daughter liked hearing the roar from the lions at the nearby Big Cat Sanctuary and looking at the sky watching the wing walkers and sky divers.
We will definitely be staying here again!
