Weekend Trip to Cattlestone Farm Adult Only

Lovley campsite in a beautiful area. Donna was a great host!

2 nights at Cattlestone Farm Adult Only

The pitch was lovely and secluded, with clean water facilities (a lovely treat) and Donna was very accommodating, I'd recommend this to anyone who wants to escape from technology!

2 nights at Holistic Woods Campsite WILD

I had a great experience camping in Holistic Wood Camping. It really felt wild camping. As a fan of wild camping, it is a perfect place. There are plenty of hiking routes where you can see old trees and forests. Sam was very helpful and informative who you can talk about various topics.

Weekend Trip to Penn Meadow Farm

A lovely camp site, a large field where you can conveniently chose where and when you stay with no fuss. Toilet and shower facilities available and free wood. Although you should bring an axe as the wooden logs are rather big for a campfire. We stayed for two nights and it was a busy weekend with plenty of friendly and lulemined families. A very enjoyable time.

Weekend Trip to Cattlestone Farm Adult Only

It was a lovely weekend camping at Cattlestone. Very clean facilities and great views. Donna and the staff were so welcoming and checks that we were doing fine with our stay. We even got to meet the friendly highland bull named Stanley. 😁

4 nights at Penn Meadow Farm

What a gem of a campsite. The owners and operators were so helpful and you can tell there is a lot of care going into running this site. The showers were clean and the rustic, laidback attitude in camping made for an amazing experience. Kids loved the neighbouring horses, alpacas, pigs and sheep. And there are several public footpaths nearby to enjoy, including one very short walk to the Royal Standard Pub. Couldn’t recommend the place more. Thank you Frankie!

Weekend Trip to Daisy May’s Farm

Kids loved the camping and all the things you can do at the farm really enjoyed themselves would recommend

Weekend Trip to Cattlestone Farm Adult Only

Wonderful overnight stay. Peaceful, with lots of bird song and some distant sounding animals. Hot shower with the sun beaming through ☀️ facilities all clean and exactly what you need. Went to Arundel afterwards to see the tulip festival 🌷🌷🌷🌷

Weekend Trip to Penn Meadow Farm

Friendly site, responsive hosts and warm showers. I can imagine the site gets busier in the summer but had plenty of space on a sunny April weekend. Will be returning to this spot.

2 nights at Holistic Woods Campsite WILD

I really liked the simplicity of this camp site. Everything was clean and even the basic facilities were decent. Didn’t need the water but good to know it’s there. There’s a shower block being built which will be a good addition. Once you arrive you can pitch up wherever you like. There’s a meadow or the woods. We pitched up in the woods, had a slab delivered to protect the ground and off we went with our fire. We were met by Sam when we arrived, lovely bloke and then hardly saw another person for the 2 nights we stayed and were left completely alone which was awesome! Theres lots of spaces in the woods to pitch up and it really did feel close to wild camping. There’s plenty to do all within 30 minutes of the camp site including beaches and plenty of shops close by if you drive. Some people have commented about the road noise, which you can hear but it’s not really a drama, after about 9pm and before 8am there’s hardly any traffic, absolutely not a deal breaker. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again.

2 nights at Holistic Woods Campsite WILD

Absolutely wonderful place to camp, the relaxed nature of the host and being allowed to pitch more or less where you’d like really adds that wild factor for anyone looking for a bit more of an off road experience. Really good location in terms of shops not too far away and some beautiful walks nearby. Would definitely return

1 night at Wethersfield Eco Project Off grid

Very friendly welcome by Tim and a peaceful stay in lovely woodlands

Weekend Trip to Penn Meadow Farm

Lovely location on a hill, very helpful and accommodating team, and great facilities. We’ll be back!

Weekend Trip to Holistic Woods Campsite WILD

Really beautiful campsite in a lovely area! Everyone there was really helpful!

Weekend Trip to Penn Meadow Farm

The campsite is set in beautiful surroundings, right in the middle of nowhere! The area is stunning and has lots of great walks nearby that our dogs loved. The campsite is in a quiet area, great for when you want to escape for a tranquil weekend! The hill is a little steep, which may be tricky for people with mobility issues, but otherwise it is wonderful. The farm has a few animals which our kids loved visiting, and several red kites were proudly flying over throughout the day; this is a great place for nature lovers. The toilet and shower facilities need a little TLC, but everything works fine. I avoided the portaloos though, not my cup of tea. We will definitely visit again, it is such a lovely spot hidden away in a truly beautiful spot.

Weekend Trip to Daisy May’s Farm

Good site. Lovely animals. Coffee. Food. Fires allowed. Terrible shower.

Weekend Trip to Holistic Woods Campsite WILD

It was a pleasure to stay at the holistic campsite. To camp inside a forest is a rare treat. With the bonus of fire pits to use outside the edge also. Sam was a great host. He was very welcoming and informative. I look forward to camping in the warmer weather and hopeful to bring the family too when the shower block is completed.

Small Meadow Farm

3 units · Motorhomes, Tents4 acres · Fairlight, England

This low-impact, off-grid campsite is set within a working permaculture fruit and herb farm, with a small flock of sheep that are helping restore a wildflower meadow. There is a strip of woodland at the top of my field where you can escape summer heat under the trees and put up hammocks or hammock tents. I am offering only two pitches at any one time (up to 6 people per pitch). Each pitch has their own fire pit at the top of the field near the woodland, with camping lower on the slope nearer to shower unit and compost toilet. Each pitch also has its own compost toilet tent in the woodland, near the fire. Should the weather be uncertain there is the option of renting the group tent in addition to fire and camping areas, the group tent has a yoga deck/ flat outside area and can be used for sleeping or hanging out. Up on the top field we can open the horsebox as a field shelter/ field kitchen at a small extra cost, great for keeping food and camp cookers in when your are off exploring the beaches and surrounds. There are stunning far-reaching views form the fire pits and even more stunning views of Rye Bay, a short walk away on Mountain Field or at the Balehouse -which is the info centre and cafe of the Hastings Country park. Nature and the species I'm surrounded by are paramount, such as butterflies, wildflowers and birds. The whole site is full of birdsong, especially up near the woodland by the fire pits. At night you get clear views of the stars and my favourite thing is to wake up in the morning in the summer, seeing the dew on the grass, connecting with natural peacefulness and first rays of sun. In May the woodland and field are covered in bluebells and the blossom in the permaculture orchard is astounding. Do bring a yoga mat at stretch first thing on the yoga deck! Please Note: This is a working farm so farmer and woofer(s) are on site, in areas that are not part of the camping facilities. Exclusive use refers to campsite areas not the entire farm. New option for 2024, exclusive rental of campsite area, £250 for up to 10 people, 5 extras at extra £20 a night! Why not meet friends and family on the field and enjoy the scenery over a fire, BBQ or giant cook out/ picnic. It's a very peaceful and natural spot, yet only 10 minutes drive away from the Old Town in Hastings with all the music, people and festivals that go on. It really is the best of both worlds and I'm happy to share it!

Farm caravan sites in Kent Coast guide

Overview

If Kent is the “Garden of England”, its coastline is the most magnificent of garden walls. Choose between the rugged south shores, where startling white sea cliffs look out across the English Channel, or the Blue Flag beaches of the North Sea coast, all within day-trip distance of London. Outdoor adventures await at every corner—enjoy coastal hikes and bike rides, spot wildlife on wetland walks, or play a game at one of the cliff-top golf courses. May through October offers the most pleasant weather for seaside camping and water sports, but it’s possible to explore year-round in a campervan or caravan.

Where to go

North Sea Coast

Kent’s 10 Blue Flag beaches all lie along the north shore. The south-eastern resorts of Margate, Ramsgate, and Broadstairs draw beachgoers and surfers throughout the summer months, but if you can brave the cold, you’ll catch the biggest swells in winter. Further west, the pebble beaches and colorful beach huts paint a pretty picture at Herne Bay and Whitstable, while the Isle of Sheppey has a wide choice of beachside camping and caravan parks.

South Coast

South of Ramsgate, white chalk cliffs, rocky coves, and shingle beaches stretch along the shores of the English Channel. The headline act is the White Cliffs of Dover, home to one of England’s most rewarding coastal hikes. Further south, Folkestone is a favorite for summer campers and caravanners, while the Romney marshes are popular with walkers and bird-watchers.

East Kent

North of Dover, the rolling green hills of the Kent Downs—an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty—provide a lush backdrop for hiking, cycling, and horseback riding. Stay at a farmland campsite, visit the cathedral city of Canterbury, or play a game of golf with views across the countryside.

West Kent

With easy access from London, west Kent provides plenty of options for city campers or glampers looking for a rural escape. Spend a night in a tipi or bell tent, enjoy wine tasting at a local vineyard, then take a ride on the scenic Spa Valley railway. For hikers, the High Weald AONB has trails ranging from short walks to epic hikes.
