What customers say
New site with modern, clean amenities, great restaurant, and popular aqua park. Friendly staff and convenient location lauded. Some found pitches small (tents/awnings) and noted road noise/spotty Wi-Fi. Management addressing these.

Powered grass and earth campsite
Liked Great site, clean, level pitches, electric & water right by the pitch. Immaculate shower/toilet block, fabulous 360 views of horses, the log cabins, the lakes. Ground maintenance outstanding, Great onsite bar & restaurant. Delicious food & welcoming staff. Just very modern & tidy and we felt at home staying here.
Disliked It’s such a pathetic dislike but I’ll mention it anyway! The shower head & me didn’t get on! The way it spays out is just a mist & I’ve never experienced that before! Not my favourite personally! If you’re not washing your hair that day, you need a shower cap!

From the manager: Hi Ben. Thank you for your kind review, we are glad that you enjoyed your stay. Apologies for the condition of some parts of the soil. Being a new site and due to the lack of rainfall when the soil was laid and seeded, it is not established as we would of hoped. This is something that we are going to address over the winter maintenance programme, with the current grassed areas being top dressed and seeded. We will also be looking to boost the wifi connection on-site

Powered grass and earth campsite
Liked War sehr freundlicher Empfang, allerdings ist die Einfahrt zum Campingplatz etwas unübersichtlich gestaltet. Wir haben erst beim Aquapark an der Rezeption angefragt.
Platz ist geräumig und nicht eng. Sehr einfach. Einkaufen kann man im ca 1 km weit entfernten Dorf links von der Platzausfahrt. Sehr gutes Sortiment und gute Preise.
Als kurzer Übernachtungsplatz Sehr geeignet.
20 min. von Dover entfernt.
Disliked Bietet außer Aquapark nichts.
