Great location
This site is within minutes of the A20/M20 so a great location. There is a Stagecoach bus service from the main site entrance to Maidstone with a journey time of around 10 minutes. Unfortunately, our bus didn't arrive due to a lack of available Stagecoach drivers. Leeds Castle is a must see visit for adults and children alike. Local guidance suggests a 30 minute walk to the castle. However, there isn't a path along the A20 so the walk is along the grass verge. We took our MH on the last day of our stay. It's a 5 minute journey to the castle and there is plenty of MH parking at the castle. We bought our tickets at the castle ticket office using our club membership card to get a discount. This is cheaper than booking online (online booking doesn't accept club membership). The Bearsted site is relatively small but very well maintained with level pitches. The shower block is very clean, warm and regularly serviced. There are private hand basins. The shower temperature and flow can be controlled by the user (some site facilities don't allow this). Staff are very helpful and happy to provide guidance and advice. The shop is well stocked with tasty treats. There is a lovely walk through the Woodland Trust to Bearsted village. The Leeds Castle ticket allows return throughout the year so we will definitely use Bearsted as our base location.
