Cabins near Canterbury

·

Cabin camping around Canterbury cuts the fuss: you get a solid roof, a hot shower, and a heater for chilly nights. Over a dozen cabin stays dot the countryside, often tucked behind hedgerows or at the edge of quiet woodlands. Prices start at £80, with an average around £137 per night. Most spots allow campfires, and you’ll find showers and proper toilets—not just a patch of grass. You can hike ancient footpaths, fish in managed lakes, or take a swim where it’s allowed. Locals rate Dernwood Farm Wild Camping (38 reviews), The Nut Plat Retreat (31 reviews), and Chigborough Farm (27 reviews) as favourites. These cabins give you a hassle-free base to explore the Kent countryside, rain or shine.

Welcome to Furnace Brook, a tranquil 60-acre Ecosystem Restoration Community tucked away in the rolling countryside of East Sussex. Here, peace, wildlife, and connection to nature come first. Whether you’re waking up in a handcrafted lakeside cabin or camping beneath the stars, this is a place to slow down, breathe deeply, and rediscover calm. At the heart of the land lies our beautiful lake, surrounded by native trees and wildflowers. Herons, dragonflies, and kingfishers visit often, and misty mornings give way to glowing sunsets reflected on the water. Our cabins blend simple comfort with rustic charm — natural materials and wide windows that open to birdsong. For campers, we have rural private pitches or spacious and communal spaces. It’s quiet here — no loud music, no generators, just the crackle of a fire and the sounds of nature at night. Furnace Brook is part of a working Ecosystem Restoration Community. Every stay supports rewilding and soil regeneration, helping wildlife and woodland return to the landscape. Guests are welcome to wander our trails, learn about the restoration work, or simply enjoy being surrounded by thriving nature. We also brew our own small-batch Furnace Brook Beer, made with local ingredients — the perfect companion for a lakeside sunset or a cosy evening by the fire. If you’re looking for stillness, beauty, and a genuine connection to the natural world, Furnace Brook offers it in abundance. Come to rest, reflect, and experience life at nature’s pace.
