What customers say

Setts Wood: Peaceful, pretty spot with plenty of room & a friendly vibe. Clean facilities (hot showers, kitchen) and free-roaming farm animals are a hit with kids. Close to Tenterden. A few noted bin frequency & wanted more showers.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked Great location - just up the road from the nearest town. Beautiful sky at night, very little light pollution. 10pm music switch off is great. We had pitched next to our family in a bell tent with no issues. Owner very friendly (and lovely dog!). Lots of free roaming animals, and the bell tents were all well spaced apart.

Disliked In the bell tent field, there was only one composting toilet with no lighting. The other toilets were much further away. Only one shower unit for the entire site. We decided to shower at home, as we only stayed for the one night. Ground was very uneven, so you need to watch your step. For glamping - I think facilities need to be improved.

We had a lovely stay on a great site would visit again if in the area.

Bell tent

Liked The Bell Tent was really lovely, and the site was really well spaced out. The Animals were really nice to have around too, as was the fire pit with metal grid on top and box with utensils etc for cooking.

Disliked Distance from our bell tent to the flushing toilets was a little far when it got dark, as the ground is pretty uneven. The one compost toilet near the bell tents was helpful but no lighting at night so you needed to be pretty brave to chance it. And it definitely wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea. A couple of flushing toilets nearer the bell tents would be fab.

Richard M.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked Spacious site with sheep and llamas grazing peacefully. Liked the no noise rule after 10p.m. as this was a busy summer weekend and there were lots of campers. Liked that could pitch camp wherever we wanted. Great location within easy reach of sandy beaches and places of interest.

Disliked Just one shower for a large group of campers seemed insufficient although in in fact we didn't need to queue for long. The toilet near our pitch was dirty.

Really nice experience! We'll be back!

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked We had a great time at this campsite! The setting was beautiful — peaceful, with plenty of natural scenery and space to relax. One of the highlights was definitely the farm animals and star gazing at night.

The shared kitchen facilities were also a plus.

Disliked The only downside was the toilet facilities. Unfortunately, they weren’t restocked or cleaned as often as needed, especially during busy periods. There was also only one shower so the queue to use it was long It didn’t ruin the experience, but it was noticeable.

Bell tent

Liked Loved the open space and the fishing lake. Beautiful little camp site, with great facilities, and friendly dog who gives lots of attension and love.

Disliked the sheep waking me up at 4/5am but this cannot be helped.
One recommendation would be better quilts in the bell tent and softer matress.

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.
