Pond field non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Field was huge and lovely, very remote, although long lane to get there very bumpy and excessively slippery when wet. Hosts were really nice, very helpful and drove round daily to check all was well and if logs needed.
Disliked: Sadly the few toilets that were there were weren't very pleasant. I'm not sure whether through lack of cleaning or other campers just not caring. Also, we had music blaring until after 11 both nights, I wish people that wanted that would realise a totally remote field is the wrong place.

Pond field non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: We loved the friendly welcoming from staff and the offer for fire wood and fire lighter at a very reasonable price. We really enjoyed our night at the farm, it seemed inclusive with a variation of families, couples and larger groups. The facilities were kept clean and well maintained - we loved the added extra of hot water on this site and a place to do washing up. Overall a very nice place which we will certainly return too.

Pond field non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Big open space in the pond field with freedom to camp wherever we wanted and can enjoy a campfire. Staff very friendly and welcoming. would come back again
Disliked: run down and basic facilities in the Pond Field site And no showers had to drive to the farm field site to have a shower. internet/phone signal is very limited Poor maintained road/track leading to field hard to access unless you have 4x4 or high ground clearance vehicle

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. We totally take on board your comments, and are excited to say, we have purchased a new toilet/ shower block to compliment Pond Field. Im sorry it wasn't up and running for your visit but it was delayed due to the annoyingly ongoing wet weather we have been experiencing which obviously inhibits large machines from accessing the fields without making unsightly ruts- and we take pride in our lush rolled fields! We are pleased to see you would visit again, and look forward to you trying out the new facilities and giving us your feedback.
Would happily stay again!

Farm field non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: The space options, shower facilities, the staff were so friendly.
Disliked: Sadly the toilet facilities, doors didn’t lock, lack of toilet roll, also waited 2 hours for a fire pit but they are small.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Hi Chris- Thank you for your feedback. I apologise for the doors not locking- we were unaware of an issue as no-one had mentioned they couldn't be locked- but rest assured, we will check them and rectify immediately if there's an issue - privacy is key when you need a wee! Sadly we found some campers had pulled out alot of the toilet paper and left it strewn on the floor- but I assure you we do visit and top up facilities numerous times in the day. The firepits we do lend out for free, and we have numerous sizes and shapes- I'm sorry you found it small, and yes you shouldn't have to wait 2 hours for it- we usually do a log drop at 5pm, and provide the pits at the same time- I will look into this thank you for bringing it to our attention.

Farm field non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Easy to find. Check-in was fine, phoned when I arrived at the yard as per the instructions. The farm field showers were spacious which was nice, and great to have a hot shower, and the fresh air coming in too. Two washing up areas and a separate drinking water point. Plenty of toilets for the size of the field. The two ladies running it were lovely and friendly, helpful info about local footpaths and have small local maps for sale. Great view from the top of the field.
Disliked: Would have been nice to have a way to recycle other than taking home. Not a dislike as such but no small bin in the washing up areas so make sure to have your own rubbish bags.

Farm Field non-electric grass campervan pitch
Liked: Big field, lots of space between tents and campers. Good showers and toilets. Great communication from host/contact person, Gina, who was very helpful, welcoming and friendly, before and during our visit. Nightly charge very reasonable. Site is superbly located. Hever Castle , Chiddingstone Castle, PenshurstPlace and many, many other places of interest are within very easy reach. We are keen to return next year.
Disliked: Dogs are allowed. Luckily we didn’t step in any but came across little piles of dog poo on 3 occasions on way to shower block. Quite difficult to see in the grass. Personally, would prefer a dog-free field.

Pond field non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: A lot of green area. Quiet place. Fire pit to buy offered by the organisation which was quite nice. Large area. People were very friendly.
Disliked: To many abandoned old cars, trators, trailers in the area. In a quiet day as I went, it could look like a horror movie.
