Long term residents

Just left this campsite, seems to us there were a few long term residents on site which gave the holiday a slightly depressing feel. We didn't sleep well, dogs barking all night. Toilets and showers were good, but sadly will not be returning here.

Best Site on the network

Was recommended this site by some friends who visit the site regularly and it didn't disappoint. After reading one review on here, I was quite worried, but I have to say I don't who how anyone can class this site as soulless!! From the moment you arrive Andy and Troy make you feel so welcome. The floral displays around reception are beautiful, then when its dark the site comes alive even more with solar lights in the trees and planters. I particularly liked the innovative display of bottles. "Herb your shelf" which we used on several occasions was a great benefit. The welcome leaflet was full of helpful info about the site and local area, also including the fact that recycling is done at the end (guessing the previous reviewer didn't read that). We cannot wait to return. The Butchers Block at the Bluebell in Bearsted was excellent, and offers discount to members.

Fantastic site with great management

Booked in here while visiting family close by. Andy and Troy were great wardens - they really work very hard to make the site welcoming. The site is immaculately clean, great facilities and lovely personal touches to make you feel really relaxed. The onsite shop is well stocked with all those holiday essentials, and a few sweet treats. The local area is great to explore - Bearsted Green (30mins) and Leeds village (50mins) are within walking distance, and have lovely pubs (10% discounts offered and dog friendly). The site also has good access to the M20 for those travelling to/from the continent. Highly recommend staying here, and we will definitely return!!

Diss

Unfortunately, this was the worst Caravan and Motorhome Club site we’ve ever stayed at. We originally booked for three nights but left after just two, forfeiting the payment for the final night because it wasn’t worth staying any longer. The site is not very dog-friendly. The designated dog area is long and narrow, and it isn’t securely fenced, making it unsafe for smaller dogs to roam freely. Furthermore, the only walking routes available are accessible only via a busy main road, which isn’t ideal or safe for dog walking. Moreover, the site lacks proper recycling facilities. The only bins provided are for glass bottles, with no options for recycling other materials. This was disappointing and not up to the usual standards we expect from a club site. The pitches are spacious, however when the site is full you do feel very overlooked from all directions. On the positive side, the showers were clean, and the Wi-Fi signal was strong. However, despite these positives, the overall experience was so negative that we would recommend avoiding this soulless campsite altogether.

Thank you Andy & Troy - the best Wardens in the business!

We've been members for years, and if we're honest, we know that some sites have better wardens than others. Well, we now know that Troy and Andy are the very best. They helped us out with a particular situation to do with our son's graduation. It was a huge relief to know that they were there to help out. Thank you guys, above and beyond! Hope we see you again sometime, and enjoy the Oak on the Green on us. Jayne, Matthew & of course Joseph!

Excellent site

What a stunning site. It is so obvious that the wardens work extremely hard & have great pride in their site. From the reception given on arrival to the beautifully kept grounds this is certainly a jewel in the clubs sites. 10 out of 10 !!

Highly recommended

We stayed at Bearsted in May 2024 during the final week of a 3 week adventure. It was our first time in Kent and this site certainly did not disappoint. The wardens, Andy and Troy, are so attentive, courteous and hardworking, nothing is too much trouble for them. The site and all facilities are very tidy and well kept. The wardens make all their guests feel welcome, not just on arrival but throughout their stay, always nodding and waving when a guest walks past, even when chatting to someone else. The site is very colourful with flowers and a little herb garden, as well as solar lights around reception and lights in the trees on the site. It is within very easy reach of the M20 and the information room has a good display of local attractions. The atmosphere was lovely, with a seating area outside reception. The shop is well stocked and there are food vans (pizza, fish and chips) on certain evenings. The wardens are constantly looking to improve the site in some way and are very creative. They certainly go "above and beyond" and put the guests first. There is inevitably traffic noise, but this didn't particularly keep us awake once we got used to it. A walk / drive into Bearsted village (less than 2 miles) is well worth it, with The Oak on the Green pub very lively on a weekend and a cricket pitch - a quintessential village, in fact. There is so much to do, using this site as a base - you really can't go wrong here.

Fantastic little gem!!!

Wow!! What a find. Before you even enter reception the outside area is so bright, vibrant and welcoming, and then reception. Probably the best stocked shop we have ever been in, which was great for us because we had just arrived off the tunnel so needed provisions. We were welcomed by Andy who couldn't have been more friendly. Smooth check in, and he gave us great advice on choosing a pitch. When we returned to get our barrier card we noticed the fabulous “herb your shelf” what a great idea! Andy and Troy keep the facilities immaculate and the site is wonderful. We cannot wait to return, and would highly recommend Bearsted to anyone. The pizza van on a Saturday was also excellent.
