In the tropics as you book in!

Please get the wardens an air conditioner for reception. In the recent hot weather the poor wardens were working in over 30*s temperature! Not able to open windows because they cannot hear the phones ring. Not good for club members booking in either. Nice site and handy for Chanel crossings.

Good site

Good site, wardens and location. Nice to have a great little shop just over the road. Wonderful Bluebells in the nearby extensive Reinden Woods within a few hundred yards. Site does not have much character but good size pitches and level. Construction work did not bother us. Pub down the road looked OK for a meal although we just went for a drink.

BIRTHDAY TREAT

We have stayed at the Black Horse site before. The meet and greet was excellent and a clear explanation given to the space availability. Having been before it was easy to choose. There is work going on but that did not distract from the excellent time that we had. Even the loss of a barrier key (swallowed by our car-ugh) was handled very well. We went out for a birthday meal in one of the local restaurants -- great meal. Overal an excellent break, and a great site.

Great Stay

We were visiting relatives in East Kent and it wasn’t possible to stay with them so we booked into Black Horse Farm. We were made welcome and the staff were very helpful as we were fairly new to motor-homing. We had a great stay all round and will be going back again. Nigel and Carol

Enjoyable (2nd) stay.

We stayed last week for 6 nights, the construction work taking place didn't bother us at all, our pitch was towards the far end of the site so not too far to the (spotless) working toilet block, We had a very peaceful stay, the pitch was large and level, we enjoyed watching the wildlife. It was an ideal base to visit the many attraction in and around Dover. The wardens were friendly and informative, the electricity was due to be out on the Tuesday, but again not a problem as we had be told when we booked in. We will go back again in the future!

Not up to par during building works

As a very frequent visitor ( up to 12 visits between 1 and 3 days per year) we are fully aware of what the site has to offer. During the current building works despite not leaving site for early ferries we have been located at the most extreme points from the only toilet block in use and yet many much closer pitches remain unfilled. This has made life difficult for my wife who has walking difficulties and puts us in mind of the availability of a local CL for considerably less cost , with in effect, similar facilities. Things must get better as the prospect of the work being finished on schedule looks doubtful. Next visit scheduled for early June with a newly enrolled member who I hope will see a fully functioning better organised site by then!!!

Great for the ferry to France

I have stayed here about three or four times just for one night either going to France next morning or carrying on to where I store my caravan. Always found the place quiet, clean and the reception very friendly and efficient.

Back Again

We have spent the last week at Black Horse Farm and loved it. All the Wardens are very friendly and helpful. The site at present has building work taking place at the Wardens Office and both toilet blocks which are due to be completed by (I believe) May - I would suggest the end of May as there appears to be a long way to go. This doesn't affect the cleanliness of the lower toilet block which is fully functional just appears to have an additional building being added. The site is very well kept. We have not been troubled by the builders noise and our fellow members have made no noise whilst leaving early in the morning. There is a little noise from the main road but didn't bother us, this is where you can catch the bus into either Canterbury or Folkestone and Hythe. A really good week, thanks Gail and team.

Good site when builders have finished

As a result of the building work, we were disturbed early every morning by overnight stayers who seem to have ferries to catch. We like the wildlife there, especially the very friendly rabbits. We were also disturbed by motorcyclists roaring up and down the Canterbury road. Not a peaceful week.

Very nice but will be better after the builders have gone

Unlike one other reviewer we thought reception was charming and helpful. I know the building works are less than lovely but the site did its best under the circumstances. Loved the fact there was a bus stop outside, which was very useful. Only gripe was the wifi. Thought it was supposed to be much faster now but there were times when it could not be accessed, and all we wanted our emails and a weather forecast. Will probably come back sometime and see the site perform at its full potential. Enjoyed our stay.
