Upstreet, Kent, England
Primitive grass and earth tent campsite (woodland, wild)
Liked Great woods to stay in. Completely dark at night and can hear woodpeckers and owls. Rope swings in the woods for kids to play on.
Outdoor showers are lovely. Brilliant local lager on tap and the owners are friendly and helpful.
Disliked Toilets need regular cleaning which was not happening. One hand sink in a toilet has no water connected so can’t wash hands. A bottle of hand sanitizer would be good there.
Soap and toilet roll regularly running out. Maybe it was someone’s job who wasn’t there to keep an eye on the toilets and everyone assumed someone else was doing it. A regular clean and check on soap and toilet roll would have made a big difference.
The bar is great but needs a tidy up. It’s next to a garage and with the door left open the car fumes could sometimes be smelt in the bar.
There are also lots of broken down cars around in various stages of neglect or being repaired. Some of them are quite quirky and could be a bit of a feature but it feels a bit chaotic.
At the entrance it kind of needs to decide if it’s a campsite or a breakers yard.
It is a lovely site but needs a bit of a spruce up around the bar and toilets.

Liked We loved having such easy access to the woods, the little cafe and how well kept the site is.
