Pete's Field

Canvas is king at this tents-only site in the Kent countryside. Between Folkestone beach, 20 minutes’ drive away and the history city of Canterbury, half an hour’s drive away, this is a place for getting back to basics. Pete’s Field is a summer-only site, which pops up on a farm in the Kent Downs for six weeks in July and August only. As such, expect simple facilities and, of course, the simple pleasures of a stay in the countryside. All of the pitches here are grassy and off-grid. There's no electric hook-up, cars are not allowed in the field and amplified music of any kind (even from your mobile phone) is not permitted. If you like the sound of getting back-to-basics for a few days with campfires and stars instead of TikTok and TV, you might just like it here. The car-free policy means that adults can relax and kids can run free in the field. Things change from year to year, but you may find hammocks, hay bales and tree swings or simply entertain yourself by watching the rural life in the surrounding fields. The facilities are basic, consisting of no more than a little container with a few flushing loos and a couple of open-air bucket showers. There's hot water and no roof, so look up at the trees and the sky as you shower. The washing-up sinks are also open-air. Aside from that, there’s a little ‘Rainy Day Trailer’ for shelter in any downpours and logs for sale… and the amiable hosts, Amy and Pete, are happy to provide tips on the local area. The site is in the hamlet of Paddlesworth in the hills above Folkestone and has a drinks-only pub (open on select evenings) five minutes’ walk away, an ancient church, access to the North Downs Way (less than a mile away) or countryside footpaths from just outside the farm. The Channel Tunnel and Dover Port are under 15 minutes’ drive away.
