Kings Oak Farm

Likte Beautiful surroundings and lovely little kitchen, shower and toilet unit. Very peaceful and lots of lovely walks and cycle rides

Likte ikke There were just two of us there so showering was fine but if the pitches were full, just two showers and toilets would not be enough

Fra bestyreren: You obviously did not see the portable shower and WC facilities and the portable toilets on site.
These were not open as the site was not busy.
I again must remind everybody this is a CL and as such has limited facilities all be it the facilities we have put in are superb, with showers, toilets and a kitchen with washing machine and fridge freezer.
Dont think your comments in the dislike were fair or for that matter reasonable.
Most touring caravans and motor homes have on board facilities, the problem is people don't like using them.
It would have been better not to have made any comment.
I better say no more!

Likte Beautiful site in midst of lovely countryside.
Clean and tidy there was only 3 motorhomes there so the toilets and showers were always available.
We were also given use of the indoor fridge which was helpful in last week's heat.

Likte ikke There's no local shops or pub but we had ebikes with us so it was easy to get to lovely Headcorn.

Fra bestyreren: You won't be surprised I am disappointed with your comments.
We have installed brand new showers, toilets and a kitchen with washing machine and fridge freezer.
This is a rural site and that is how it is described.
It is situated in the Kentish countryside.
It is not a village location so there are no shops.
There are two pubs within walking distance of the site.
The who'a'hought it and the Kings Head both in grafty green.
There is a mop and bucket under the stairs in the kitchen.
Not sure what you mean about varnishing the doors, they are all brand new.
As mentioned in the past this is a well appointed CL site, with beautiful surroundings with the backdrop of my rare breed sheep and cattle including highlanders. Getting 8 out of 10 greatly affects our overall ratings.

Likte Nice well laid out pitches plenty of room(even if we were not the only ones there). Lovely views on one side nice to see the cattle and rare breed sheep. The new toilet and shower block is beautiful(even though we only discovered it on the last day) as there was one toilet/shower on its own which we thought was it!

Likte ikke Nothing really. Location slightly remote but it was peaceful mostly, just a little traffic noise. Would definitely stay again.

Fra bestyreren: Well ! What a mixed up muddled up review!
We like
We don’t like
I am confused
this is a CL on a special farm and place we choose to share with you.
There are a number of people on site I am surprised you did not find the new shower and toilets.
Sorry about the rural location.
That is what we are
A farm in the Kentish countryside.
The acess roads are not that bad
Maybe you have a motorhome tha is too large for the sites you are choosing to stay on
With this superb CL only 10 out of 10 is acceptable.
The art of communication is important.
If you had only asked!
Not sure after you read this you will want to come back
Pity,
I live here and enjoy it everyday and I choose to share it.
Not sure you will want to come again

Likte Very good new facilities

Likte ikke Location

Fra bestyreren: You leave me speechless!
Dislikes - Location!
Then you say you would visit again and recommend to friends!
Just look at our reviews at both Kings Oak and our sister farm Roundoak. The rural location in the Kentish countryside and on a farm is what appeals to most people.
With google maps it is not difficult to explore the location.
7 out of 10 is just not acceptable to me.
You dont realise how much damage this does in our overall rating.
Both Roundoak and Kings Oak rare breed farms with the wonderful backdrop of our animals including Highlanders and the Kentish countryside is a special place we choose to share.
maybe the tick box in the 'visit again' was a mistake!

Likte Lots of space, friendly owner

Fra bestyreren: Many thanks for your review and rating
Norman

Likte Beautiful site, very level pitches. Friendly owner came to say hi and was very understanding when I didn't realise I had to take some cash!!
Highly recommend 👌
I had to give 1 star for no wifi but we really didnt want or need wifi so it wasn't an actual problem.

Likte ikke Our only downside was it was our first time out in our motorhome and crumps lane felt very small! It was worth the scare once we got there!

Fra bestyreren: Thanks for your comments and rating,
Sorry about the wi-fi that is work in progress.
Hopefully, staying at Kingsoak is about getting away from what is turning into a horrible world!

See you again soon

Likte Excellent site, great staff. Great facilities.
We had the opportunity to learn about some of the Rare Breeds at the farm, and have a cuddle of the lambs, piglets. Rosie the farm manager was great.
Norman and Ruth were great hosts. The barn bar was a nice addition in the evening, to sit in or outside of and enjoy a chilled wine or beer. Overall, thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend the site to anyone else.

Fra bestyreren: Disappointed with your rating!
We try so hard to make this an enjoyable experience
This bank holiday was extremely busy and ratings have a big effect on on our overall score
Norman

Likte We absolutely loved our stay at the weekend. A peaceful place with plenty of space.

The facilities were excellent, a nice modern kitchen area to wash up with kettle, and microwave which we thought was a nice touch. the kitchen, toilets n showers were spotlessly cleaned.

Staff were ever so friendly and it was great to be at one with nature and learn a little about farming . The cows were delightful and curious and came and said hello which was beautiful!

We also visited the local pub which was 2 miles away and would recommend.
