  • Quiet adults-only site in the Kent Downs National Landscape
  • North Downs Way 10 minutes’ walk; Folkestone 20 minutes’ drive
  • Three pubs, a vineyard and fishing lake all within walking distance
If you like to be surrounded by stunning natural views, then family-run Horton View Farm is the place for you. Five minutes’ drive away from the Kent villages of Stowting and Brabourne, this adults-only site is set on a quiet lane with views across to the hills and valleys of the Kent Downs National Landscape. There are scenic walks from the gate of the camping meadow, as well as spectacular sunrises and sunsets and dark skies filled with shimmering stars on clear nights. Approached by neatly mown paths through the wild meadow, each tent has its own firepit, and logs are available to purchase from the site. It’s mostly off-grid (so bring your own torches), but it does have flushing toilets and hot showers, a fridge and a freezer for guests to use, and an open barn with a social area where you can relax and take in the stunning landscape. A vineyard, several pubs and a fishing lake are within half an hour’s walk of the site along quiet lanes and footpaths, so leave the car behind if you choose. The very nearest pub is just five minutes’ stroll away, and if good local produce is your thing, there are exceptional farm shops, bakeries and farmers’ markets throughout the area.

Liked Beautiful site with stunning views. All the facilities were extremely well kept and it was useful to have a shared kettle, fridge freezer and electrical point. It was a nice touch having the fire pit too.

Nicola C.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked This site is beautiful, I stayed with my 18 year old daughter and we had an amazing and relaxing 3 days. Jo and Dave are amazing hosts, they have created a haven for campers that enjoy a peaceful and natural environment that is ecologically and environmentally friendly. Having stayed at many campsites, this site is one of the most thought-out and cleanest places I have stayed in. We particularly liked the cut out meadow paths and not being surrounded by cars, however, that said, wheel barrows and trundle carts are provided for transporting, we liked the communal barn and all the facilities. Thank you, Jo and Dave for a memorable break and for allowing us to enjoy your beautiful haven. We look forward to returning in the future.

Disliked Nothing.
