Great for getting out of manic city life
Powered grass campsite
Liked Clean showers, kids park clean, beautiful quiet location ! Harry that runs the park is a great asset. Fires allowed as long as raised of ground, can rent one, buy wood if you dont have any, well stocked shop. You can buy colour change powder to change fire colour in shop ! So amazing with kids to see at night lasts over 1 hour buy 2 bags
Disliked Nothing
From the manager: Thanks for the amazing review! We absolutely love the pictures too! Thanks for your kind words about Harry, we really do have the best wardens here <3

Powered grass campsite
Liked Very well maintained site with helpful and friendly staff.
Disliked Grey water waste disposal point impossible to use with normal caravan wheeled tanks. The raised faucet prevented disposal. Requires a level or slightly lowered grating as is normal at all caravan club sites.
From the manager: Thank you for your review and comments. That's the first time we have heard about the grey waste being an issue as the actual unit itself is bought fit for purpose. It is on a ramp so possibly that was the issue? Sorry it was an issue in any case :)
We had a great stay, very clean site. Nice and level pitches.

Liked Quiet site with very helpful wardens and well stocked shop on site. Good for dog walking and wildlife. Go kart site next door was not a problem and didn’t really notice noise. Good pub for food in Dungeness and well stocked hardware store in Lydd. Really enjoyed our stay and felt as though had a relaxing break to recharge. Will go again
From the manager: Thank you for a lovely review. We will look forward to welcoming you back :)
