We look forward to seeing you again.

Kedvelték Everything! There was plenty of space, the toilets and showers were very clean. The easy access to the river for paddle boarding and the ease of checking in.

Nem kedvelték Couldn’t find fault with anything.

Kedvelték This is 3rd or 4th time we have stayed here. For us the main attraction is the river. Either on our Sup boards or in our Kayaks. Only stayed one night this visit. Usually we stay for a few nights, we could only fit in one nights stay this time. Went on an evening Sup board paddle to the Boat house & had dinner then paddled back in the dark. Have never seen so many bats flying around in the evening as the sun went down, was incredible! Arrived back at the site for a well earned rest 22:30hrs. The busiest we’ve ever seen it here & still plenty of places to choose to put your camper or tent. A great no frills camping site.

Kezelői megjegyzés: Thank you for your loyalty in choosing to stay with us and that you enjoy yourselves especially on the river.
Thank you so much for your private feed back and we look forward to welcoming you again.

Kedvelték Very big felids lots of place to pitch up, clean toilet.

Nem kedvelték Only one toilet block so if you pitch up in another field it can be a very long walk or even a car drive back to the toilets, to which lots of people where doing and they drove very fast across the fields not really much care taken. Even though there’s a curfew for noise after 10 o’clock a big group of people thought it would be fine to shout sing until 3am.

Kezelői megjegyzés: There are 2 toilet and shower blocks located right next to each other, for those choosing to be in a field further away it is advisable to bring a toilet tent if you do not want to walk or drive.
We were out on site from 9pm until 1130pm making sure everyone was adhering to the 10pm quiet policy and keeping to the speed limit etc.. Any disturbance after this time guests need to call us on the 24 hour mobile number printed on the front of their cards, no one called us including yourselves therefore we presumed all was quiet.

Kedvelték The river was the main attraction for us. In the hot weather, being able to have a dip in the beautiful river with the amazing surroundings was incredible.

Nem kedvelték It would be good to have more facilities for the further away fields. We had to cross a field and a half to get to the facilities but that was the only bad side.

Many guests who have stayed before and want to be in the further away fields bring a toilet tent to avoid lots of walking.
We hope to see you again soon.

Kedvelték Liked the river setting

Nem kedvelték We love the feeling of seclusion but if it wernt for the river there is literally nothing else to do for the kids. Asides from the fact the river has no safe access into it at all to enjoy the water. The guy selling paddleboard hire at 20 per hour would make it 120 quid for us a family with 4 kids. The kids play park displayed on google isnt there at all. For an award winning campsite thats charging for extras on everything its really poor quality. Basically just a field for 100 quid for 2 nights isn't on. Seems like the focus is on upselling extras like an awning or dogs to make even more money, angry is understatement. We were told on arrival we also couldn't have a firepit which wasn't great for the kids. To top it off they were letting a family ride a dirt bike round the field whilst the kids were playing and riding there pushbikes.

Kezelői megjegyzés: In reply to your dislikes and private feedback.
When booking on Pitch-up it states there is no longer any visitor attraction or play park on site and The Hop Farm Website does not advertise or have any photos of a play park. When using google it will have old images even though the farm and attractions have been closed for over 3 years.
In the top camping field, which you can drive to there is a lock with public jetty's to get safely in and out of the river, there are also a couple of other low banks and shallow areas to enter the river from the campsite, it is not possible to give all of this information when checking in, most of it is on the map provided or you can ask at reception.
Firepits were banned due to the ground conditions, fires can spread extremely quickly and would put everyone`s lives in danger. I would have thought everyone would have understood the safety measures put into place.
We did not let a family ride a dirt bike, these are banned and I did come out after being notified.
There are additional supplements for extra adults, children, awnings and gazebos. There is a £1.50 per night charge for dogs which you were not happy with as they do not use the toilets and showers, however some guests have their own facilities and do not get a discount for this.
We have country and river walks with the emphasis on being outdoors enjoying each other’s company, some guests bring indoor and outdoor games for their family to enjoy together.

Kedvelték Amazing amount of space, lovely river walk.
Great place family get together.

Nem kedvelték Online information definitely could do with updating, there are no parks/play areas.

Kezelői megjegyzés: When you book on Pitch-up we do not advertise as having any entertainment or play park. There is no mention of a play park on the official website as there is not one here.
Perhaps you will visit again to enjoy the country and river walks and bring some indoor and outdoor games for you and the family to enjoy together.

Kedvelték Lovely place so much room kids loved paddle boarding boarding staff very friendly, back soon

Kedvelték Access to Medway River

Nem kedvelték While the site had a very large area for camping it was more a residential park than traditional campsite. Electric pitches were concentrated in a fairly small area away from the River. Facilities were disgusting when we arrived on a Sunday but cleaned OK by Monday morning and afterwards.

Kezelői megjegyzés: We only have 1 small electric field which does have long stay guests, this is not a residential park. There are 8 very large non-electric fields and 3 are very close to the river, the electric field you were on is further away from the river which meant a long walk or a short drive with your kayaks.
The majority of guests compliment the facilities including those staying on the Sunday you arrived, I presume you used the facilities just before our cleaners arrived again.
