Stayed here back in May for a weekend and had a lovely time. The owner was friendly and helpful and the facilities clean and well maintained. Had a really good vibe and a friendly family feel. Most of the pitches are in discrete groups of 3 or 4 and surrounded by trees.
Will be returning here and would recommend to anyone with children.

This is a great campsite. We were given our own enclosed pitch with camp fire, which was absolutely perfect. The toilet and shower facilities were excellent and we were made to feel very welcome by Sarah. My daughter loved seeing the animals around the farm, and Sarah was good enough to let her help with moving some of the chicks.
Lots to do in the local area which made for an excellent short break. I would highly recommend this campsite.

Its a beautiful camp site got nice large pitches. Me and my boyfriend was made very welcome as we came in. Its not often you have toilets n showers when you camp out so that was a bonus, they were very clean not a spot of dirt anywhere.
There was also a lovely pitch where you could have a fire at night if it was cold very nice laid out. I would definitely come back as it was a lovely atmosphere and Sarah and her mum was lovely to talk to. Held a nice convo.
Was also nice to see some farm animals e.G.
Chickens. Guinea pigs etc.
Me and my boyfriend Dan we be returning very soon x

We chose this site for several reasons. A farm site, chickens, ducks, open pits for long evenings around a log fire toasting the nibbles and marshmallows. A friendly layed back welcome with a personal touch. We stayed in the paddock next to the farmhouse, wonderful private space for those who like their privacy, near to the shower block, highly reccommended. The toilet block is immaculate with free showers also the washing up facilities were great. The site was a little dark but thats the fun if your a hardened camper. We bought logs and eggs. Visited Chartwell (Winston Churchills old place)fantastic day out, take a picnic. Brighton just down the road, plenty of counrty walks. Trains to London for the day off from driving. Could hear some traffic / some planes but got use to that. Just had wet weather, we cheered ourselves up by going to The Hop Farm Festival with Neil Young headlining. A little detached from civilisation, but if it's the countyside feel that your looking for this is the place to visit. The site also had a security gate. Will definitely be returning to this site.

Lovely campsite, you are given a very large pitch and if requested a pitch with a camp fire area. The toilet and showers were very clean and tidy, nice washing up facilites and washing machine and tumble drier.
The camping areas are spread out over about three main fields with little pitches in smaller areas, all bordered by trees and hedges.
A lovely campsite except for the noisy A-road running along one edge of the farm. If you get a pitch up on the large field furthest away from the road it may be much quieter.
The B&B looked lovely and I would recommend it. The people running the campiste are very friendly and helpful.
The nearest shop is in the next village, it has a lovely butchers and small store, you can majority of what you need from there.
Overall we would thoroughly recommend this campsite.

About 15 minutes walk from the station so very easy if you don't have a car. Really great walks all around this farm, we even walked through a large corn field and came out on the other side to find a farm that sells home made ice cream, yum!
We were in a split field with campers on the one side and sheep on the other side, was great waking up seeing them all there! Every pitch had a fire pit and it was really nice having a big roaring fire. Owner very nice, checked everyone had what they needed and even chopped all the wood herself! There is a separate smaller field for families to camp in so all the kids can play together. Lots of chickens and things to see. Great forest to go walking in too. Facilities were clean.
Definitely recommend. Great site especially for country walks.

My wife and I have been to Manor Court Farm many times over the past 24 months. My 2 children aged 3 & 7 absolutely love it and so do we.
We have camped in the garden part and on the field part. All pitches are large and have a fire pit with timber tables, logs or chairs to sit on. I have always found the site clean and well run. The manageress, Sarah has a lovely laid back attitude which is great when camping, we have met enough Hitlers in our time that can ruin a simple break with their unreasonable rules.
There is a log cabin from where you can get your logs for the fire. They are proper logs as well and can burn all night.
Down in the bottom corner there is a gate which leads to a path that takes you on a lovely walk through into the valley. If your lucky you get to see the many rabbits that run about.
We have just come back from a Dads and Lads night and stayed in the garden section near to the Farm house. Here you can keep your eye on the kids while they use the rope swings or play football with the goal. We had 3 tents on our pitch and still there was loads of room. We had water right by and loads of hens which went down a treat with the kids. In the evening Sarah took up our invitation for a glass of wine and a steak, all in all again a lovely night at Manor Court in my opinion the best site we have stayed at.

We arrived mid-week without a booking but were made to feel most welcome. The friendly owner is on hand at all times and has time for any queries.
We were given a wonderful site with views across the countryside. The site is laid out so there are many nooks and crannies to camp as well as an orchard. You are shown where to camp but there is no rigidity with numbers etc. - just a most relaxed feel.
The facilities are excellent. There is only one shower for the ladies and one for the men, but this was no problem at all with no queueing needed and both the shower and the toilets were spotless, as was the washing up area which is under cover, unlike some sites.
Due to personal reasons, we had to return the following night (Friday) and although the campsite appeared full, a beautiful away-from-it all spot was found for us where we could have had a log fire had we wanted.
Chicken are running around - very free range - and the site would be ideal for children - we were just 2 OAPs. There appeared to be many walks from the farm and it seemed a popular place for walkers with their tents.
Whilst there, we visited Tunbridge Wells and found it a wonderful town with no parking problems, which made a very nice change.
All in all, one of the best sites we have ever stayed at which could be thoroughly recommended whatever your age - unless you want a regimented marked site but then who really does want that?

Our party of four adults two tents and one small dog stayed for one night in July, we had a great time. This is a beautiful park, and they don't allow it to be over crowded. The manageress however is totally scary and very strict rather like a Sargent major in the army. There is only one shower in the Girls toilets and one in the men's, but the water was hot, and clean. The toilets and washing up area were nice and clean. There is use of microwave and fridge, but make sure that you separate all your rubbish as you will be told off. Chickens are running around freely and it adds to a nice atmosphere, eggs are on sale. We will visit again and remember, to be on best behaviour.

We spent 10 days at Manor Court. We were allocated a pitch in the field rather than the orchard. The grass was long and clumpy and the ground humpy. There are no marked pitches. These features may make one think that this is bad news for a tent holiday. However, despite appaling weather we had a brilliant time! The atmosphere of the site, due to the management style, is guaranteed to make one relax.
The toilet facilities and washing up areas are kept extremely clean and the manageress is always around with a cheery smile and time to chat. There is a genuine desire to make one's stay as enjoyable as possible.
If you is looking for a site with bowling green grassed areas and tents/caravans carefully arranged and ranked in neat lines then this site is not for you. If however you want a relaxed break with an air of real camping and places to sit round a fire in the evening with others, you will be happy.
Would we stay again? Most definitely, yes!
