  • Off-grid farm site outside Eastchurch on the Isle of Sheppey
  • Views over the Thames Estuary and a 10-minute drive from beaches
  • Meet the farm animals on site and buy free-range eggs for breakfast
Cooking up a few fresh free-range eggs for a cracking Kent coastal breakfast? What a way to start the day. That terrific view out over the Thames Estuary isn’t the only option as breakfast backdrop for guests at Clifftop Camping though. Pitches at this scenic Isle of Sheppey farm site are sorted on a pick-your-own basis, so you’re welcome to meander around the meadow, woodland and pond areas too before selecting a spot in which to settle. And those eggs? Well, they’re from the hens that reside on this working farm. You can buy their offerings while you’re staying here, and meet their pals too: the current roster includes sheep, goats, horses, ponies, ducks and rheas. This is an off-grid site so you’ll need to step away from the gadgets – but sea views trump screen time anyway, eh?. It’s also pretty stripped-back on the facilities front, but there is one compost toilet and one tented chemical toilet, and you can access water in the farmyard. For eats and supplies, a couple of pubs and shops are a mile away in Eastchurch; bigger supermarkets, restaurants and the like are 10 minutes’ drive away in Sheerness. Ins and outs should be fairly easy here, as you’re only around a 20-minute drive from the M2 and an hour or so from London. If you’d rather roam on public transport, there’s a bus connection to Eastchurch from Sheerness station.

What customers say

Spectacular clifftop views and a peaceful, natural vibe. Guests love the friendly owners and "wild camping" feel, with plenty of space. Minimal facilities as advertised. Some found it pricey, citing limited amenities, toilet upkeep, or waste disposal. No dogs allowed.

Liked Nice spot, and spectacular view. But lacking any proper facilities that would justify the quite premium price. They are honest on their website about it though.

Disliked no proper facilities, no shading, no pathway down to the shore

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Great spot to pitch up with a tent shame I had to leave so early in the morning, and the owners were really nice.

Disliked Only one group of noisy neighbours, but that'll be a risk you take anywhere you camp.

Will definitely return 😊

Local attractions

If you’ve picked a place called Clifftop Camping it’s highly likely you’ll be after a bit of coast action. The quickest way to get it is to clamber down the cliffs (easier than it might sound; no abseiling needed) for a quiet little beach with some fab sea fishing to be done. Other options nearby include Minster Leas beach (10 minutes’ drive) and Shellness beach (20 minutes), where there's also a naturist area for folk seeking a skinny dip. Active types are well sorted for things to keep them busy too: saddle up at the stables five minutes away, tee off at Sheerness Golf Club (10 minutes’ drive) or breeze over to Barton's Point Coastal Park (10 minutes) for a nature trail, adventure playground and watersports. For a nod to travels of the past, it’s off to Eastchurch Aviation Museum (five minutes) or a narrow-gauge ride on the Sittingbourne and Kemsley Light Railway (20 minutes). Doddington Place Gardens are just over half an hour away if you’re more interested in gentle wanderings.
