Hope House Camping

Pop-up site in a meadow with views over the Kent countryside
A 10-minute drive from Bodiam Castle or the Hole Park Estate
On-site catch and release fishing pond; well-behaved dogs welcome

Hope House Camping is a quiet pop-up campsite set on a working farm in Kent. With just a small number of pitches available, its camping field is located in a sheltered area with views over hop gardens and the village windmill. This is a hotspot for wildlife – with deer often passing by and owls frequently flying over the field – and very much a wild-style experience, so you'll be left to yourselves throughout your stay. Feel free to pick your own pitch on arrival – well-behaved dogs are allowed on all of them, and all campers have access to running water (however, please note that there are no toilets on site, so you'll need to bring your own). This scenic spot also has its own fishing pool, where catch and release fishing is allowed. This family-friendly site is roughly a mile from the traditional Kent village of Sandhurst, which is home to tea rooms, a petrol station and a pub. Hope House Camping's location just off a quiet country lane means that you can walk to these amenities if you like, as well as meaning you can explore other neighbouring areas like Benenden or Rolvenden on foot.
