Wonderful little CL.

Lovely little site, in a great location. Two great pubs nearby which serve food. Good walks straight from the site. Would recommend and would definitely return.

Great CL and lovely host

We arrived later than planned but that was absolutely no problem. Melvyn was quick to reply to our messages and kindly gave lots of helpful information about visiting Canterbury and Whitstable. The site was easy to find and virtually level - we didn't need our blocks. It... Show more

Great cycling from CL

We initially booked for 4 nights but had to cancel our last night. The site is down a little lane - with very few passing places - especially if all the parking places down the lane are full. We were lucky on our arrival and drove straight in,... Show more

Fab little place.

Great little place, easy to find, young lady of the family kindly bought my dog some treats. Make sure you eat at the Bell Inn, great food. Also a few hundred yards walk to a brilliant viewpoint.

Great for Broadstairs and surrounding areas

Stayed over for 1 night in September. Owner managed to slip us in last minute which we were thankful for. Warm welcome to the place. This site is literally in the village with its pubs and lovely post office shop. Thank you.
