 We've just returned from a four night stay at Manor Court Farm. We picked this site based on these reviews and we were not disappointed.
There is a choice of areas for camping - several small fields around the farm buildings to suit up to three or four tents all with firepits and furniture.
These fields are well sheltered but suffer a little from road noise. The other area where we camped, is a larger more exposed field with room for maybe twelve tents (allowing ample space for each) and equipped with fire pits and seats. It is further away from the road and therefore quieter.
The facilities block containing two wc's, two sinks and a shower for each sex as well as wash up facilities a washing machine and tumbler drier (£1. 50 and 20p respectively) and a microwave and fridge. The showers are free and the block was kept spotless and fully equipped during our stay. None of the camping areas are far from the toilet block.
The farm is a working farm with chickens, a turkey, two pigs, hundreds of rabbits, several guinea pigs and an aviary. Sarah, the manageress is friendly and helpful and sells big bags of logs at £5. 00 each.
The farm is situated on high ground and is surrounded by lovely countryside, excellent for long walks and with many places of interest nearby. It is on the Gatwick flight path and some aircraft noise will be experienced.
There are abundant local farm shops, a Spar grocers and bakers in Groombridge (5 minutes drive) and Tunbridge Wells is only a 10 minute drive. There are two pubs locally, the Crown in Groombridge and the Chafford Arms in Fordingbridge. Both do good food.
We found this site excellent, in a good location and will be returning.

We spent a fabulous two nights here last weekend, in a small sectioned off part of the site by the main house and the cottage and oast.
We were within 20 seconds of the toilets and shower block which was brilliant for a last minute dash to the loo before bed.
We walked to Groombridge through the woods one day, which took about 3/4 of an hour, and went to a lovely pub called the Junction Inn, (right in the village not on the outskirts), very child friendly.
We had a small fire pit (brick built rectangle) with a grill on, and seats and tree trunk seats.
The site itself was spotless as were the loo's and washing up area. We are coming back in September so it shows how much we liked it!

So impressed with this site - just sad we haven't been able to book since, it's so popular. The lady that runs the place knows people will return if they've got plenty of space.
We had a lovely relaxing time. There was room for the children to play safely, with or without us - but by using their imagination and organising their own games. Much preferable to lots of climbing frames etc.
The firepits were great and the site overall was well kept without being regimental. Facilities simple but lovely and clean and never had to queue over a busy bank holiday weekend when the weather was superb.
Slight gripe was the resident bird life, including grumpy turkey, which drove all the dogs in our field berserk when it kept wandering amongst us. Keeping all gates closed essential here.
Lovely walks right through the gate - beautiful in the spring with the bluebells. Thoroughly recommended.

Our party consisted of 3 mums and 7 children between the ages of 3 and 9. We camped in the main camping field and as the pitches are not marked, we were allowed to pitch at the end of the field and had a huge area all to ourselves with our own fire pit. This field tends to be in the main for families.
Sarah does a great job of not packing everyone in and there are several other areas to camp in around the farm.
The rope swings, animals and walk (which took us 30-40 mintues) around the farm are fantastic for the kids and we all had a brilliant time. Logs are £5 per bag but the fire pit came with its own grill which was free and we used regularly.
The toilet block was always clean, being two sinks for washing up and two toilets and a shower in the ladies block. We rarely had to wait more than 5 minutes at peak time for the shower.
Having been to other campsites this is great value for money and we felt very relaxed and had perfect weather which is always a bonus. We will definitely return.

Lovely for the one night we stayed - me and two boys, aged 2 and 4.
Nice level site, pegs went in easily. You can pitch up next to a fire pit, which is actually a little brick built thing with a metal grille on top for cooking! Ours had an old tree trunk on its side which the boys enjoyed clambering on.
Facilities were clean, and the three of us fitted in the shower in the ladies.
Washing up sinks had a plug!
Owner very friendly, and farm is delightful, although there are areas the small people must stay out of.
Some road noise at night as the site is very high up and the sound from around does travel.

We booked into this site for one night and enjoyed it so much we stayed for three. It was delightfully quiet with plenty of choice of pitches. Facilities were fairly basic but very clean and well stocked.
There were fire pits available in several different areas but unfortunately the weather was not good enough for us to use any of them.
The surrounding area is delightful and we visited Sissinghurst and Hever Castles whilst staying and loved both.
Chartwell on the way home was also a hit.
Would recommend site and would certainly stay again.

This was the best campsite we have ever been to! It was clean and tidy, the toilet/shower block was absolutely spotless all weekend. We had our own private fenced pitch with fire pit and wooden tables and chairs. The surrounding countryside was lovely and really great for dog walking, fantastic views. The campsite has rabbits, guinea pigs and birds and the children were welcome to visit the animals and watch feeding time. The children had a fantastic time with the animals (including a visit to the pigs) and played on the rope swings and we felt very secure in the campsite. We will definitely be coming back, over all a fantastic site and Sarah, who runs it, is so welcoming and works really hard to keep this pretty campsite a really great place.

We stayed here for one night, just for a quick break, lovely site very different to commercial sites, fire pits are great, we had toasted marsh mellows and waffles. You can buy logs on site.
Toilets facilities and showers are modern and clean, fridge and microwave in the kitchen for tent users is a good idea. We will go back when the weather gets better.

This campsite was excellent. The surrounding areas was beautiful, lovely walks for the dog. We booked for two weeks but stayed for three. On our last week things went down hill, our peace and quiet was spoilt by 47 Dutch students arriving. There are only two toilets and one shower for the men and the same for the women - the first day the students turned up they over took the camp site, taking chairs and tables from all the pitches. Couldn't used toilet and shower facilities and washing up area due to students being in there. Noise till 1 o clock in the morning due to the young boys and girls screaming.
Beware of the turkey - the white one that roams around, it got spooked and ripped our tent!
Can honestly say every thing was perfect with this campsite until this Dutch party arrived.

Friendly communication from the outset. We arrived at the site and as it was almost empty were able to chose a sheltered pitch with a wall one side and a fence the other.
The pitch had its own fire pit and we bought two bags of logs for £4.50 each and these lasted four nights. The shower and washing up facilities were fine; they were never busy as there were only three other units there! the site is a working farm and is managed by Sarah who is very friendly and helpful.
The children aged eight and four were happy to explore and we were happy to let them. The site is on the gatwick flight path but I didn't find it disturbing; actually is was quite nice to be sitting by a fire on a cold, starry night watching planes fly over packed with people headed for expensive holidays!
Short drive to local supermarkets. We would definitely return.
