Great Kent site

The site is easy to access from the A2070 but the last mile is along a narrow lane with few passing places. However don't let that put you off visiting as it is very quiet, and whilst we did meet a tractor on the way in we got past okay and we met nothing on the way back out. The field is huge with double EHU posts well spaced on either side. One of the best things about CL’s is that you don’t need to line up your back corner to the post as you do at the club sites, and at this CL the only thing that limits where you pitch is the length of your EHU cable. There was the odd bit of road noise from time to time (it depended on the wind direction and was mostly just the noise of motorbikes), but the vast majority of the time the only noise was the sheep in the field next door and the wind in the trees (and the Rooks when they came in to roost each night). The hedging and trees do a really good job of sheltering the site from the wind. Water tap, chemical waste disposal and recycling all by the entrance to the field. Grey waste can be pipped into the field edge. Another nice touch at this site is that they have food waste tubs that you can take to your pitch and return once full. Whilst the grass was short, there were a lot of grass cuttings. The right side of the site gets the morning sun, and the left the evening sun. Or if you pitch right at the top facing down the field, you get the best of both morning and evening sun. The sunset cannot been seen from most pitches, but you only have to walk down to the gate by the byway at the bottom of the site and you get to see some fantastic sunsets. The byway runs up the drive and along the bottom of the site and leads to multiple footpaths as well as the Military Canal. It did seem to be well used, especially over the weekend, though I wouldn't call it busy. There are loads of cycling routes directly from the site and being flat, you can cycle to the coast with no bother. Plenty of places to visit nearby and further afield. There are no pubs within easy walking distance but we drove to the White Horse pub at Bilsington and had a really nice meal. Contact with the site was very easy, and a deposit of two days was paid by bank transfer (we did book 6 months in advance). The remainder of the fee was paid once we got to the site. Peter came over to say hello and to make sure we were okay, and then left us to it. At £20 a night, this site is really good value for money. We'd definitely recommend it and would revisit if ever in the area again.
