Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked A Peaceful Wild Camping Gem – Highly Recommend!
We had a fantastic stay wild camping on this beautiful farm. The field we camped in was completely ours for the night, offering total peace and privacy. As the sun set over the countryside, the sky lit up in the most stunning colours – it was truly magical.
Cows wandered freely around the fields, adding to the rural charm, and the whole place was incredibly quiet and relaxing. In the morning, we were greeted by birdsong – such a lovely, calming way to wake up.
There’s a basic toilet block and running water available, which was all we needed. Kevin, the farmer, was really helpful and friendly – he showed us exactly where to pitch and introduced us to his lovely dogs, who were all well-behaved and added to the friendly atmosphere.
It’s a short, pleasant walk to the local pub, and there are some fantastic walking routes nearby if you want to explore the area. Despite feeling wonderfully remote, it’s only a few minutes’ drive to Folkestone and the Channel Tunnel.
If you’re looking for a peaceful escape close to nature but not too far off the beaten track, this place is ideal. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to unwind and enjoy the great outdoors

Excellent choice for families/friends or couples
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked The site, space, views and privacy are all great. The owner Jamie is very accommodating and friendly, always available if necessary. Sea views in some areas and on site toilets no more than 5 or so minutes walk. Lots of dogs and cows to chill with 🙏

Brilliant wild camping on a working farm with tons of space
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Great spot - loads of space, an entire field to ourselves, gorgeous views across the valley and out to the sea (we could see France!). There were other campers but nowhere near us, never heard anyone. Rustic (only basic facilities) but ideal for our purposes. Very friendly and helpful host on site. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
