Sandwich Lakes: tranquil spot, great pitches, spotless facilities. Cafe's a winner for food & service. Fishing's popular. Minor Wi-Fi/mud noted, but most rave & plan to return.

Liked Good size pitch. Secure site. Friendly helpful staff. Nice to have the shop and cafe on site (although we didn't use it in the end). Toilets and showers were clean and tidy. We booked as a last minute get away and this site was great.

Liked That it is quiet and my friend got to fish

Disliked Did not get discount for caravan club membership had to pay more to fish. As I have stayed before a few times and this has never been the case . They only take card payments they should take cash as well.although they say the WiFi is free you can not get connected to it

Powered concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Beautiful area, big enough pitches, quiet, good 4G coverage

Disliked Bathroom: only 3 toilets and 4showers.
2 toilets were out of order, 1 shower out of order… dirty, toilet paper everywhere, spider webs.. felt like no one cleaned it in at least a week :(
Dishwashing area.. only 2 sinks, dirty, full of sand. Don’t think it’s been cleaned recently at all

Powered concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Nice spacious pitches for caravans & campervans. Lovely walking routes within the camp site, particularly around all the fishing lakes. Lovely on site cafe, selling nice food served by very polite, efficient staff. Good fishing shop as well.

Disliked Would have liked the cafe to open till later. Maybe 8pm to provide an evening meal.

Local attractions

You're never too far from the coast in Kent, and a 10-minute trip takes you to the Sandwich and Pegwell Bay National Nature Reserve for walking trails and wildlife spotting. Ramsgate (15 minutes' drive) has a rich amount to offer, with a sandy beach, seal spotting and fishing trips from the harbour, and a maritime museum. If you're hankering after some more history, Richborough (five minutes) has a well-preserved Roman fort and amphitheatre. A minute from the site, meanwhile, the White Mill Rural Heritage Centre is far more than a striking building to photograph; the exhibits and outhouses of this preserved 19th-century smock mill record a whole vanished way of Kentish country life. For cobbled lanes and cathedral tours, Canterbury is 20 minutes away. After that, connect with your wild side at Howletts Wild Animal Park (20 minutes), a conservation project rather than a zoo which houses and protects the future of 400 species, many of them endangered. After hanging with the elephant herds and greeting the baby rhinos, Dreamland Margate (also 20 minutes) makes you feel like you've stepped into another universe, with traditional fairground rides and amusements bringing the former days of seaside entertainment back to life with a whoop.
