  • Quiet family-friendly farm site on eight acres of Kent farmland
  • A 45-minute drive from Hastings; half an hour to the coast
  • Fishing lake and kitchen facilities on site; fresh eggs to buy
Heading to the Kent countryside in a quest for a rural retreat near to steam railways, castle ruins and vineyards? As well as assorted farm animals on site, there are eight acres of farmland at Setts Wood Camping and Glamping, including a fishing lake (charges apply) and a wooded area for classic games of hide and seek. Down a private lane and well away from the road, there is certainly plenty of unwinding to be done at this quiet site. Don't worry about being too far removed though, as it's still within reach of several historic towns including Hastings (a 45-minute drive away), and has several sandy beaches within half an hour’s drive. The local town of Tenterden is five minutes’ drive away for a convenient collection of breweries, restaurants and supermarkets where you can pick up supplies for a picnic or a barbecue back at the farm. You can also buy fresh free-range eggs on site every morning, in a splendid selection of different colours. Store any leftovers in the communal fridge and make use of the other kitchen facilities such as a kettle and sink. Other handy facilities include toilets and a shower block, for washing off any grains of sand accumulated from the beaches at Camber Sands and Dymchurch, both within half an hour’s drive.

Bell tent

Liked EVERYTHING WAS GREAT
First, the communication was excellent. Beautiful and spacious area with all amenities very clean. We knew staff were there on hand or very close by but you were completely left alone to enjoy your stay. We stayed next to the small fishing lake and it was so nice, quiet, and pretty. My daughter had a fishing rod so she had a lovely time fishing for the first time. The dog was in her element in the lake and ignored the sheep. We cut up a bag of carrots and fed them to the Alpacas. It was lovely having the animals wandering around you. Was very quiet in the night and slept well. Will be going back to stay more than one night the next time. The Bell tent was spacious and comfy enough. Very clean as were the toilets. Very nice place for a short break
All in all it was very relaxing and highly recommend

Liked This is our third time here and it’s such a beautiful place to camp, in a lovely location. The facilities were perfect and the whole place has a relaxed feel to it. The children loved seeing the sheep and lamas in the field and all the space to run around and be kids!

Beverley S. 1 review

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked Such a beautiful campsite incredibly peaceful with sheep and alpacas roaming the site which my grandkids loved. Theres a fishing pond where my grandkids fished all weekend, it was such a big hit with them that theyre getting fishing equipment for their birthdays! The site is big, clean with plenty of toilets, a shower and a cool little kitchen with kettle, toaster, fridge and microwave. The lady owner was really kind and helpful and gave me advice about how to get home when the road into Tenterden was closed due to road works. We all really loved this place and are looking to go back during the summer holidays. Only a short drive into Tenterden too which has plenty of shops, restaurants, big play park and excellent swimming pool. Thanks for a great weekend x

Local attractions

Join the steam railway at Tenterden (five minutes' drive) or Romney Marsh (20 minutes) and stop off at a reel of historic towns. Find your end destination in Hastings (45 minutes), where you can visit the underground tunnels of smugglers' old haunts, roam the ruins of an 11th-century Norman castle or stay in the modern-day with a stroll along the amusement pier. Play like royalty in more turrets and ruins, including Bodiam Castle (25 minutes), Sissinghurst Castle (20 minutes) and Leeds Castle (35 minutes). Or perhaps turn towards the historic towns of Tenterden (five minutes) and Rye (20 minutes) or the landscaped gardens at the fanciful Hole Park (15 minutes) and Great Dixter House & Gardens (25 minutes). Smallhythe Place (10 minutes) is another enticing site, with a 16th-century cottage that was once the home of a famous actress. Red or white? Let your tastebuds decide at local vineyards including Chapel Down Tenterden Vineyard Park (15 minutes), Gusbourne Estate Vineyard (10 minutes) and Biddenden (15 minutes). If the animals on site have you craving more, Port Lympne Safari Park (half an hour) should fit the bill.
