 We pack heavy as a family. Everything including the kitchen sink. So being able to drive to the pitch is a must. The track down to the pitch was easy to navigate even after some rain.
Pitches are between rows of fruit trees so you have privacy and some protection from the wind. Plenty of space for various tents and shelters.
Our pitch allowed us to park the car to the side. It is very pretty. Very flat and comfortable to sleep on. The nearest neighbouring camper was about 100 feet away and could not be seen through the trees.
A tranquil site without road noise or blaring sound systems. Water taps are a very short walk. The kids could wander around safely as a group and there was plenty of space away from tents for them to play games.
There are free to use fire baskets including fire grates. Wood was a little pricey at £8 but bags were a reasonable size and the wood was good quality and very dry. Free vegetables such as the interestingly shaped flat head courgette were nice.
The brick-built shower block and toilet facility was very clean with plenty of hot water for showers or washing dishes. Nice pub with good ale and food, and an excellent family butchers just outside the front gate.
We really liked this site because it was picturesque, quiet, flat with nice grass, not too busy but with all the essential amenities you could wish for. Thank you Hatchers!

A lovely campsite, very clean with good facilities.
We stayed there to attend a wedding locally and this worked really well.
Tried to book again for a short break but it was full.

Our tent pitch between cherry trees was perfect.
The showers and toilet facilities were clean with plenty of hot water and fridges and freezers great for storing our food and ice blocks.
Our hosts were friendly and helpful and had it not been for the weather, we would have stayed longer.

A really lovely campsite, probably my favourite campsite I've ever stayed at.
Lovely scenery and setting in an orchard with your own row each. Nice facilities and a very friendly host in John.
It had everything you could want and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there - we will be back!

We absolutely loved the friendliness, tranquillity and overall excellence of this site.
From the warm welcome to the secluded pitches, via blossoming orchards and the happy voices of playing children there was nothing to fault.
Thoughtful touches were everywhere, fridges, charging points, super clean toilets and showers. Ducks, chickens (with eggs for sale) and being woken to the fullest scale dawn chorus ever all added to the intense pleasure of being away with our grown up son and two dear friends and exploring all Kent has to offer on the doorstep.
Margate, Broadstairs, Whitstable and Faversham all new to us North Easterners and all in easy travelling distance.
We could happily have stayed there another week!

For our first camping experience my boys and I couldn't have picked a better place. The grounds were beautiful with lush fruit laden trees of the orchards and amazing new friends.
We had the company of the geese who set the scene.
The facilities were clean and well maintained, and the owners were friendly and warm.
The boys were safe in the grounds and made friends very quickly.
We are planning to return there next year.

The site is very pretty, camping between rows of fruit trees meant our tents were shady in the mornings, and had dappled shade or sun during the day.
Lovely big pitches. No queues for the showers, and three well spaces washing up sinks complete with not water and washing up liquid. Also phone charging points, chickens, geese and sunflowers.
Highly recommended thanks for a lovely stay

This is pretty much my ideal campsite. We came for just one night in advance of a birthday treat for the kids to see the wild animals at Howletts the next day and were delighted to find a small, family run camping on a working farm with fresh vegetables provided free of charge by the generous owners.
The campsite is very well laid out with each pitch (great size) between rows of cherry trees so plenty of shade in the summer heat. Flat, level grass, good for pitching.
The toilet/shower block is just a short stroll away in a converted pig shed, even some information showing local prices for pigs going back down the years. Spotless facilities, hand sanitise dispensers, thoughtful signage and well laid out for social distancing.
Logs available to buy with an honesty box, eggs & chutneys to buy and vegetables for free - we had some wonderful sweetcorn, green beans and tomatoes cooked over our campfire and they tasted amazing. Again, incredibly generous of the owners to hire out fire bowls for free.
Good number of bins for ashes. We enjoyed taking a little evening stroll around the farm to see the fields of crops and wandered among trees groaning with fat plums.
Plenty of space for the kids to play and yet because of the natural spacing we always felt we had our own enclosure. It's not a big site so we felt v safe/comfortable and the kids enjoyed exploring and playing hide and seek.
Quiet at night, big dark skies ideal for star-gazing - spotted 3 shooting stars. This place is a gem.

We visited just as lockdown was easing and couldn't have been happier.
Huge pitches in between rows of cherry trees, loads of space, water tap nearby with gravel underneath so no muddy puddles to contend with.
Fridge freezers available to store your food/iceblocks and phone charging point.
Ample clean showers & toilets, hand sanitiser, social distancing posters and no teeth cleaning advised in the communal wash areas. Covered washing up area.
Half Moon & Seven Stars pub 5 minute walk away and Preston Garden Centre also a 5 minute walk away served excellent breakfasts, plus village shop selling essentials a 10 minute walk.
Lovely village and well placed to visit the whole area. Great host and no complaints at all.
