 Don't be put off by the proximity of the site to the road as the noise of the traffic is drowned by the noise of the aeroplanes overhead and although both of these stop or reduce during the night it is not long before the peace is shattered again when the cockerel starts up in the early hours of the morning! We had a very lovely pitch to ourselves away from anyone else and the ability to have the fire was an absolute bonus. The shower and toilet facilities are perhaps to be considered a bonus on a site of this type and they were basic but functional, although a bit limited on space when more than 2 people trying to use them. Meals at The Hare in the next village were excellent and Sissinghurst is a gorgeous place to visit. It is doubtful we would visit again but only due to the noise - though I note no other reviews have mentioned it so perhaps just the position of our pitch.

Wonderful park we had a great stay me and my wife will be back soon and can not wait. Every thing was clean and well kept. Not so great for kids as no pool but for a 2 night stay was def worth it and for couples its lovely and relaxing with lots of things to see and do nearby. And lovely places to walk and things to see and do and the staff are all really nice.

Site is in a good location about 1.5 miles from Tunbridge Wells and it's well signposted from the road. Many homes and castles are within easy reach. Ashurst station is closer but don't go there because it has no facilities like cab office, and with a lot of kit it may be a bit too far to walk. There are no shops or facilities within short walking distance, and I never found out if they sold provisions on site - if they did, they certainly didn't shout about it, which is a shame.
Site owner was friendly enough, but didn't come round with logs for the fire yet expressed surprise after I helped myself. Children tend to be kept together in the fields, with other groups in discrete pitches - initially I thought it a bit odd that we were in a secluded area, but it worked out fine, after we asked to moved off a pitch with a perfect view of the back of a barn and the car park. Very caravan and car friendly though - ground was very hard, even though it had been raining constantly for several weeks. That made it hard to get tent pegs in, of course.
During the weekend, the chickens are let out of their coops and will come round to peck - very cute. Rabbits and guinea pigs obviously don't get handled enough though, and while they don't bite, they don't like being stroked very much.
Toilets and showers are clean and a hand towel and soap is available, as are two washing machines, although there was no hot water for washing up one evening, and another evening it was lukewarm.
One of the fields was quite windswept, while other areas are more secluded. Very pleasant walks though the fields reveal picturesque rolling Kentish countryside.
Would recommend, and would visit again.

I’ve been to this lovely campsite twice with my two children and have nothing but good things to say about it. The owner is very friendly and helpful, the toilet / shower block is very clean and tidy and there’s a fridge, a washing machine, dryer and microwave to use.
We’ve had two different pitches, but both have been ideal. The pitches are dotted around the campsite so you really feel like you have your own area of the farm with a good feeling of privacy. The pitches have garden furniture for you to use and your own ready made fire pits. You can buy a bag of logs from the farm and we had a roaring fire going which the kids loved.
The site feels very safe and secure with a security gate that you have to get the code for to gain entry. The site is so peaceful that you could happily spend your whole trip there relaxing, going on walks, etc if you wanted, but there are many local attractions nearby if you want to go out and about. We had a great few hours at Groombridge Place which is less than a mile away.
All in all, the perfect campsite, highly recommended and we can’t wait to go back.

This is the perfect campsite and we had a fabulous weekend. It's a small site and they seemed to keep families with small children separate which worked out very well in the evenings when the kids were in bed.
There is a couple of rope swings and the farm to walk around. The site felt very safe and we were happy for our kids to 'go off' with all the other children. Its not far from the Pinetum - word of advice don't hire bikes from the Pinetum. It cost us over £50 for a family of 4 for 3 hours!

Wonderfully located campsite. Very rural, proper campers site without shop etc, so bring everything you need.
We were delighted that each pitch had its own camp fire, and wood was for sale on site by the bag.
Very clean toilets etc. Free range chickens dotted the farm, as well as sheep and lambs in the field next to the main camp field.
Caravans seemed to have excellent access to hook ups. Rope swings available for children, as well as some rabbits, guinea pigs and chicks. Thoroughly enjoyable experience, staff were lovely, and we have booked again to visit in June.

Excellent spring time break 2 nights in relaxing picturesque arable surroundings with chickens running free, lambs and Birds nesting everywhere round the farms out buildings. With all the facilities you may require without being to pampered.
Polite helpful Sarah our host was welcoming, and friendly showing us round the site's facilities. A night in a grubby field previously made the electric power shower's and porcelain toilet with hand wash basin and squirty soap incredible.
Encouraged to have a barby with bricks and a grill supplied. Will make plans to stay longer next time. Many thanks for a lovely break.

As most of the reviews here are for tents, here is a review from some 'tin campers'!
This is a beautiful out of the way site yet within ten minutes of Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells.
Access is easy and the toilet and shower block was clean and tidy. The farm setting is relaxing and seeing new born lambs in the field takes all your cares away. Fire pits and wooden furniture are dotted around the site and wood is available from the farmhouse.
For family bike rides there is a disused railway in Groombridge (less than 2 miles away) that allow flat rides for 7 miles each way to Forest Row where there are plenty of places to get refreshments.
I am sure we will be visiting again.

Having stayed on this site 2/3 times later in the season last year I cant say that we have ever had a bad experience!
The staff were excellent, Very friendly, The site is kept very clean and tidy as were the toilet block etc. The security gates at the entrance was great and I felt the children were safe playing around the site!
What sold this site to us was the fire pit, It was lovely sitting round the campfire especially when the temperature dropped! We could get all the logs from the farm house as well as the eggs which make a lovely breakfast!
There is lots of places to visit, The children's favourite was 'Pooh Corner' home of Winnie the Pooh!
I highly recommend this site and am looking forward to many more weekend visits this year!

Lovely campsite in a lovely area.
Very pleasant and down to earth owner, who was very quick to explain everything, including her passion for recycling, which was a nice touch as nearly all the campers respected this and separated their rubbish into the provided bins.
As most others have mentioned, the campfires and seating areas on the pitches makes it a perfect 'back to basics' experience. Its very hard to resist cooking your meals on the fires and then sitting down to make friends with the neighbours over a glass of wine as the children run around in the 'very' wide open spaces. All camps in our vicinity ended up playing an epic game of rounders which our German neighbours seem to enjoy most.
You won't tire of going for long walks starting at the farm animals and into the local woodlands and fields.
Nice area with some lovely sites close by, including the prehistoric boulders which you soon lose your children in.
Yes it is close to a noisy road and under a flight path, but you honestly only notice it for the first 10 minutes of head down as the fresh air in your lungs from the great outdoors soon has you and the kids sleeping like kittens.
Washing facilities are small but never dirty or too busy. Our family of 7 managed to all stay clean without having to queue up once for the toilets or showers. This was also a busy bank holiday week which either means their system works or we had some very stinky campers. I like to think the latter. Simple and clean - what campers like.
Brilliant value for money.
