Palace Farm Campsite

Ik was blij met: Proximity to Faversham and Whitstable was useful.
The hosts were helpful and friendly.
Bird song was beautiful in the morning but they struggled against the sound of the motorway.

Ik was niet zo blij met: The constant noise from the motor way even though we felt quite far from it was a real turn off for this site. We went for peace and quiet but could always hear it through the bird song.
The shower room lights didn't work so when you shut the door it was dark inside. Ended up using the disabled one so we could put the light above the mirror on with the pull cord.
There was a field of thistles next door and another one of grass the other side but nowhere very nice or interesting to walk the dog from the site. Good walks if you drove away.
There was an encouragement to hire their fire pits which we did but they were so low to the ground they ended up scorching the grass any way.

Van de manager: Hi, thanks for your review. It may have been unfortunate that we had a constant northerly wind which does carry the sound of the M2 motorway which is just under a mile north of the campsite, normally we don't hear it. Many of our campers who live in towns and cities appreciate how much quieter it is in the countryside.
I checked the showers and both the disabled room and the left hand shower have working lights, switched by an infra red sensor. The right hand side shower light has been vandalised, on our first weekend open at that and is only switching on when quite dark outside.
I think you should have explored our surrounding countryside a bit more as there are some wonderful walks for those with dogs. We have maps that you could have asked for which will show any walkers why this is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The top of the field next to the campsite does have some soft thistles and stinging nettles but we do hope that walkers and dog walkers are a but more adventurous and take themselves and their dogs a bit further afield.
Fire pits that we provide, out of necessity are easily stackable for us to store them when not in use. Better and larger fire pits that we have tried to tend to grow legs and walk. They may scorch the top of the grass but as soon as it is mown again it hardly shows so we are not too concerned about it.

Ik was blij met: We loved the quiet location, and a walkable pub close by that had a good choice of food.
Very friendly greeting and the facilities looked like they were well attended, never looked like they had been left for too long.
I hope to visit again next year.

Ik was blij met: Lovely big field with flat grass pitches which were a great size. Me and my friend had two small tents and a utility tent and we had plenty of room. Toilets and showers were spotless and the water was hot. Campfires are allowed and logs can be bought on site The owners were really friendly and helpful. We and our two dogs had a great time. Thank you 🙂🐶
