Why stay here ...

Hole Farm Caravan Site has very easy access, with spacious pitches on a 'just off level' site. There are no extra charges for anything! All electirc 'hook ups' are 16 amp.

Our site is a 20 minute walk from the beautiful village of Appledore, where you can find a friendly pub, a well stocked shop, hairdressers and antique shop.

A 5 minute drive to the train station where there is free parking, running an hourly service to Ashford, Rye and Hastings. There are lovely dog walks in the nearby woods or along the Royal Military Canal. Ther sunsets from the site (as you can see from the picture) are out of this world.

Buzzards and barn owls are often seen on this working farm. Cuckoos are always heard in the spring and sometimes even a nightingale! Rye Harbour Nature Reserve - a 20 minute drive away, offers further bird watching and dog walks.

The historic market towns of Rye & Tenterden are closeby (approximately 6 miles), both having independent shops on the high street and with markets on Thursdays and Fridays.

Quiet and secluded with beautiful views

This little site is just off a very quiet country lane with peaceful views across the rolling Kent countryside. The pitches are well organised with access to the two hardstandings clearly marked. The owners are very friendly and booking by telephone was simple and straightforward. Dunegess, which we visited in... Show more

Lovely peaceful site

Lovely peaceful site with plenty of space between pitches, next to a field of sheep and with beautiful sunsets over the Kent countryside. For this price on a CL there are of course no toilet or shower. Just be aware that dog walking is on the roadside with no footpath which, while... Show more

Our happy place!

Hole Farm is a wonderful place to escape to. It’s beautiful, tranquil and exactly what we needed in the middle of a busy month. The site is well maintained and ‘green’ with food waste boxes provided as well as green and black waste bags. The village is a 30 minute walk away... Show more

Precisely What a CL Should Be

We have stayed here a few times now. The site has plenty of room for five outfits, including two all-weather pitches and is situated a few hundred yards from the farmhouse. A slight slope up from front to back, but levelling blocks are not always necessary. The main aspect is... Show more
