Scenic and spacious site with private woodland to explore
A 15-minute drive to Canterbury Cathedral and Dover
Dogs, campfires and barbecues welcome; walks straight from the site

Get set for time well spent in Kent – scenic seven-acre site Coxhill Camping is an excellent pick for folk looking to relax and/or explore. The grass pitches at this working arable farm are surrounded by mature trees, and there’s a rather fine 10 acres of private woodland attached to the site – with direct access making it easy for guests to explore. It’s a friendly place: families, couples, solo travellers and dogs are all welcome, and it’s a pick-your-own-pitch setup so you can choose the spot you most like the look of. Whichever one you choose, there’s plenty of space to spread out and to play games if you like. This is a particularly good spot for walkers, as there are paths running straight from the site and the local village of Shepherdswell is on the North Downs Way (also making this a good stopover option for those taking on the whole trail…) Other days out nearby might take you to Canterbury (including Canterbury Cathedral), to the White Cliffs of Dover or to the beach – all are within a 15-minute drive. And that proximity to Dover also means that this is a handy spot for those needing an overnight stay before/after a ferry journey; the port is a 20-minute drive from the site. As for facilities, there are firepits to hire (with logs and kindling for sale) and you’ll have access to well-maintained flushing toilets, showers, a cold-water washing-up area, drinking water taps and grey waste/chemical disposal points. Shepherdswell, under a mile away, has a pub, shop and playground as well as a train station for mainline services (to Dover, Canterbury and London) and heritage rides on the East Kent Railway (the station also has a café).

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: What a fantastic campsite, toilets and shower facilities were excellent. Basic but impeccably clean, lots of hot water to shower in.

Fantastic fir dig walks with a local pub about a 25min walk from the campsite. Loads of space to pitch the tent.

The staff were super friendly and helpful.

Great place to stay with dogs as well. Dog walks right on your doorstep.

Evening a fish and chip van turned up Saturday about 6pm which i believe might be a fairly regular thing during the summer months.

Would jot hesitate to recommend to a friend or go back again.

Caroline C. May 2025

Electric optional gravel touring pitch

Liked: Flat pitches, electricity price reasonable, clean facilities. Lots of attention to detail from the site owners

Grass field behind sheltered unfortunately bit exposed on the hard standing.

Disliked: Worried that 2 showers and 2 toilets not quite enough and when fully open and I suspect more showers and toilets open- I think about 8 of each it still not be quite enough for the numbers of people on site.

Local attractions

Getting out into Kentish countryside is easy, beginning with a historical sort of trip from Shepherdswell station 10 minutes' walk away. This is a stop on the East Kent Railway, a heritage railway that will shuttle you through the Golgotha Tunnel and Kent countryside. Of course, it’s likely you’ll want to see Dover Castle and the White Cliffs (15 minutes' drive). Margate (35 minutes) is another popular pit stop, with vintage rides at Dreamland as well as the buzzy beachfront. St Margarets Bay (15 minutes) is quieter, but just as splendid. Those of you familiar with the Canterbury Tales – or, in fact, anyone wanting to do a bit of sightseeing – should head to Canterbury (15 minutes) too. Other cool spots? Driving diggers at Diggerland Kent (45 minutes) is high up there. Wingham Wildlife Park (20 minutes) too, especially if you’re an animal fan. Once a favourite haunt of smugglers, and now well suited to those who like the smaller seaside town vibes, is Deal (20 minutes).
