  • Dog-friendly park an hour from London and 300 yards from the beach
  • Clubhouse including kids' corner with TV, video games and pool tables
  • Hot showers, football pitch and dog-walking area
Frazzled by capital city life but don't want to spend six or seven hours driving to a holiday by the seaside? Come and be dazzled by New Romney Caravan Park in Kent, a piffling hour from London and another piffling 300 yards from the two-mile stretch and sandy dunes of Greatstone beach. It's all family-run by a team which does its utmost to ensure guests do like to be beside the seaside, mixing a rural Kent Marshes setting with up-to-date comfy facilities and stuff to do on site. The level grass accommodation field catches the evening sun (for snoozes in deckchairs while someone else sorts out the barbie), and has easy access to the park toilets, hot showers, launderette and washing-up facilities as well as a roomy football pitch for the kids and/or energetic parents. If you're bringing the dog, a spacious area has been set aside on site for walks (Greatstone beach a couple of minutes' walk away is dog-friendly too; woof). And if you want to keep the kids busy, take the crew along to the Hoy Club clubhouse, which serves meals and snacks, and comes with a separate area for the kids to expend energy: a TV, interactive video games and pool tables are all here to tire them out nicely. Coffee is served here from 10am to noon on Saturdays and Sundays to give your weekend mornings a boost of caffeine.

What customers say

A tidy, welcoming spot, close to the beach and shops. Staff get a big tick for being helpful and friendly. Toilets and showers are mostly modern and clean, though a few bits need a spruce. The clubhouse is a hit with families. Most folks loved it, though some mentioned shower tokens and a bit of TLC needed in places.

Liked Lovely small sight, with adequate facilities. I travelled with 3 boys and they all enjoyed staying here. Lovely staff and bar staff. Food was nice. Boys enjoyed kicking a ball about in the evenings with other kids. Beach was 5 mins walk away and the spar shop had everything you needed food and drink wise.

Liked Pitches were spacious, kind staff, excellent showers (50p per shower using a token brought from reception for 8mins of time) and washing facilities.

On site bar (5pm till 11pm) with bingo during the week and entertainment on a Saturday and food served everyday. Kids enjoyed the pool table, racing machine, air hockey, darts, foosball and bowling machine.

Play park was adequate (although the zip line was not in use, which the children were most looking forward to).

Was able to have campfires if it was raised off the floor (must bring own).

Pebble beach with play park and a mini market (SPAR) literally at the entrance of the road to the campsite.

If you take a right on the main road from the campsite and walk up to the lifeboat station then walk a little bit across the beach you will end up on the sandy beach which is perfect for swimming at high tide (15min walk).

Rye and folkestone both 30 mins in opposite direction by car.

Port Lympne Safari Park only 25mins by car and worth the day out, make sure you select the safari ride tickets and jump on the safari truck for a 45min ride (we spent 6 hours here including walking around).

Tenterden leisure centre is 25mins by car and has a wave pool with a water flume and water activities for £22 for a family of four ticket (if not busy you get unlimited time in the pool - we went in the first week of August and not busy).

RDH steam train is 5mins by car to get to with a car park and this is a hop on hop off whenever you want including in the ticket price (Rye, Dymchurch and Hyde). Very scenic route.

Sainsbury's only a 10min drive away from camp in New Romney, although the spar is adequate for essentials as stocks a lot.

Free WiFi available that actually works across the whole site!

Disliked Nothing really, everything was great (minus the zip line out of action).

From Folkestone or Dymchurch take the A259 towards New Romney. Turn left at the traffic lights just past the Sainsbury's turnoff signposted Littlestone. Follow the road towards the sea and turn right at the T-junction. Follow the signs, turning right just before the Spar shop and you will see the cannon and flags.

Local attractions

Active types can take their pick from land and water activities in the area, such as pedalling the many flat bike routes or walking along the old military canal of Romney Marsh, and viewsome golf at the championship golf course at Littlestone between Romney Marsh and the English Channel. Zip along in a jetski on the surface of nearby Lydd Lake or at Greatstone beach, also properly gorgeous for kicking up sand on horseback. On the water, have at it at kitesurfing, sailing, or sea fishing for eels, school bass and whiting (dig in the flats at low tide to find lugworm to use as bait). Dungeness, a few miles along the coast, and lovely Dover a 45-minute drive away are both great to cast off from too: fish for mackerel at Dungeness in summer or for bass closer to shore; and mackerel, bass, dogfish, cod and plaice from the Prince of Wales and Admiralty Pier at Dover. This is a cracking region for species spotting with nature reserves at both New Romney and Dungeness (look out for the lighthouse at the latter), and hundreds of thousands of migrating seabirds landing on the Kent Marshes every winter. The butterflies and falcons of the Rare Breeds Centre at Ashford are also well worth a squint.
