Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: We loved this site!! My 10 year old girl kept saying how pretty it was. She loved the lights, the hammock swing and the tree house. It was was so peaceful. We've been camping a few times and this was by far the best site we have stayed at. I loved the trees and the views out to the fields. It is well located for Canterbury, North Kent Coast and the Wildart trail.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: The relaxed atmosphere of the campsite. The pack of firewood with lighters was good and very easy to light the fire. Love the 2 rooms to use, very useful Saturday morning as it raining all day and the extra bits.
Disliked: Car park, it was small with big cars in. Which I appreciate their is nothing you can do about the size of cars people bring.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Spacious pitch, flushing toilets, good location, lots of quirky parts to keep kids busy; hammock swings, tree house and little walk through bushes.
Disliked: No bins, you have to take rubbish with you and we know it’s to help global footprint but the reality is everyone will have rubbish and when you pack up after a weekend the last thing you want is bags of rubbish to take home! It’s not helping global footprint it’s just putting rubbish elsewhere and saving them money on bin disposal. We didn’t get an email confirmation or any communication from owners, we only met them when our friends called to ask for wood on the last day out of 3. (Not really a dislike just to say it’s very much an unsupervised site).

From the manager: Dear Amy We’re glad you liked our site! However, we want to clarify a few things: as advertised, we are a no-bin site and do not have a reception on site. Although there isn't anyone there 24/7, we are up at the crack of dawn to clean the facilities, and we take pride in keeping everything very clean! Check-out for our accommodation is at 11 am, and we return to clean and prepare for the next guests. Before they arrive at 3pm , and we also conduct a final sweep at 7 pm during the last check-in time. Additionally, we perform a night check at 10 pm. Please note that Pitch Up advises you to call upon arrival. We do send out automated arrival emails, so we apologize if you didn't receive yours. Thank you for understanding, and we hope you enjoy your stay! Best wishes Alex

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Clean and tidy site. Lovely ambience and really cute aesthetic. Good facilities (including plumbed toilets and showers) Some lovely touches including the communal firepit, swings, treehouse etc. the glamping options (shepards huts and yurts) looked fab. Location was excellent…Whitstable and Canterbury about 10-15 drive away.
Disliked: The paddock grounds were quite uneven. I felt quite unsteady on my feet at times, especially in the night. Lack of sanitary bins. I knew this was a bin free site for ecological reasons, but I hadn’t realised this would apply to sanitary bins which left me in a really uncomfortable position storing used products in my tent overnight. There wasn’t enough parking spaces compared to the number of pitches I counted (21/22 at it’s highest).
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your valuable feedback. We’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the site’s ambience, facilities, and unique features. Regarding your concerns: - The uneven ground is due to the natural terrain of the field, we do roll the paddock every spring to get rid of as many lumps and bumps as possible including mole hills. This landscape supports local wildlife and plants, which is a core part of our commitment to environmental sustainability. While this does result in some unevenness, - As for the lack of sanitary bins, I understand the concern. As a woman myself, I know that disposing of sanitary items can be managed discreetly with the use of disposal bags. We aim to minimize our environmental footprint, which is why we encourage all guests to take all their waste with them. - In terms of parking, we do provide 26 spaces with additional overflow parking, but we understand that it can be challenging when guests don’t park efficiently. Thank you again for your feedback, and we appreciate your understanding of our approach to preserving the natural environment. Best wishes Alex
