We're thrilled to announce significant investments to enhance your experience at Black Horse Farm Club Campsite, closing the campsite on 5 October 2025 when the works will commence. The campsite is due to reopen on 10 July 2026, however some ferry pitches will be available earlier in the spring of 2026 (as will the storage facility). Before the full July 2026 reopening, the ferry pitches will operate offering a non facility/service point only experience (with a 20% price discount to reflect this).
Find out more details on the exciting redevelopment plans at camc.com/redevelopments.

Convenient
Excellent site to stay on when leaving or arriving the uk via The Channel Tunnel, however it is also an excellent site to stay on when visiting the Kent Coast and Countryside.

Perfect stopover
A lovely welcome followed by a really nice site. Again the kindness of strangers helped us with our jockey wheel dilemma. Thanks to Granville, what a gentleman. So easy to get to Dover ferry within 15 minutes. Just the perfect overnight stopover
