Horton View Farm

Tyckte om Loads of space, great bathrooms, there’s a fridge/freezer, fire pits, logs to purchase and marshmallows. Location was amazing for walks/runs, three pubs and a vineyard.

Från föreståndaren: Many thanks for your 10/10 review Matthew, we hope you can come and stay again soon.

Tyckte om Jo and Dave were fantastic hosts. The site was equipped so thoughtfully and had so many little details that went a long way. We particularly loved the hand plotted maps from the campsite varying in length. We cannot wait to come and stay here again; we cannot recommend highly enough. Very welcoming of our German Shepherd too!

Från föreståndaren: Thanks so much for your lovely review Verity, we're so pleased you enjoyed your stay and that you made such good use of the maps and local walks. Hopefully you can come back soon and try out another walk!

Tyckte om Loved our stay and will definitely be coming back. The campsite was clean, well laid out, with beautiful views of the hills, and very quiet- especially for people like us who want to get away from the crowds and noise.

The host was welcoming and gave us a quick tour, showing us where everything was. The toilets and showers were well maintained and clean (one of the best I've seen, better than some hotels I've stayed in lol). There was a washing-up area with hot water and clean drinking water, a large fridge-freezer for perishables, a charging area with 4–5 available sockets, and a social area with board games. There was also a folder of printed maps showing the locations of nearby pubs, restaurants, and walking routes, as well as menus from those pubs displayed on the wall.

The pitches were nicely spaced out, with plenty of room between them. Our pitch was more than big enough for our small two-person tent and would easily accommodate larger tents. Parking was in a separate car park rather than next to the pitch, but it was only around 50–100 yards away, and carts/wheelbarrows were provided for transporting your gear.

The atmosphere was exactly what we were looking for: peaceful and quiet. The only sounds we heard during our stay were the gentle chirping of crickets and the distant baaing of sheep. The views across the surrounding meadows and rolling hills were beautiful and there was very little light pollution at night.

Our stay was quite short here, just for 1 night as we are still trying out camping, but so far this has been our favourite spot. 10/10 would go again.

Tyckte inte om Not really as much as dislikes, but more of notes.
The ground was a bit hard where we put the tent, so bringing a mallet for driving the tent pegs would be recommended, but I, with a bit of persuasion managed to drive them in by hand.
There was no Wi-Fi and mobile signal was patchy at times, but it wasn't a big issue for us as we went here to distance ourselves from technology

Från föreståndaren: We really appreciate you taking the time to write such an amazing review Aras. It really does mean a lot to know that you enjoyed so many things about the site and the area. We are really glad to hear that you has such a positive experience while you are trying out camping.
Sorry to hear you struggled to get the pegs in, the ground is so hard at the moment. Your helpful comment has given us the idea to leave a heavier mallet in the communal area for people to borrow if they struggle with the hard ground.
Thanks again for your review, we hope you can come and stay with us again.

Tyckte om Really fantastic campsite. The site is small only around 10 well spaced pitches with a few permanent bell tents. It has a great balance of conveniences, fire pits, fridge, washing facilities, while also being simplistic. The owners clearly really care about the campsite and the campers. I would, and have, recommend to a friend.

Från föreståndaren: Thanks so much for your great review, we love to hear how much people enjoy getting away from it all and disconnecting from technology to enjoy the surroundings! We're not planning on getting WiFi but there is still some phone signal on the meadow if needed!

Från föreståndaren: Thanks for your lovely review Simon, it's so good to hear how much you enjoyed the site and the local area, that's what it's all about! See you again next season.

Tyckte om Lovely new site.
Good quality, layout and quantity of facilities.
No car at pitch(whilst staying). It generate a much calmer experience.
Three great pubs close by. Nice walks but there are missing footpaths.
Open sided barn make a lovely get-out-of-the-rain communal area, with fridge/freezer and sofas.
Lastly the owners. Jo and Dave are lovely hosts that ensure your stay is a perfect one.

Tyckte inte om Nothing really. This is a high 90s percent site.
No car at pitch (setting up and putting away). Big tent and lots of stuff, but we managed.
M25 - but that is not Horton View Farm's doing.
May be one sit down loo if the site was very busy.

Från föreståndaren: Thanks so much for your great review Simon, we're so pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay and that you liked the car-free meadow, it does keep it even more peaceful.

Tyckte om The owners have been very thoughtful in creating a peaceful environment by only mowing the paths and pitches in the meadow. The facilities were lovely and clean, the barn with seating area and kettle is another great touch. Very close to the Eurotunnel and also a good selection of pubs within walking distance. Highly recommended.
