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.

Great site- ignore the crazy bad reviews
Arrived late afternoon, great facilities clean and showers were great. Lovely site, clean and presentable. Special thank you to Tony who went above and beyond to help organize our pitch. Quiet and perfect for channel crossings. Definitely stay again 10/10

Would recommend
Used for first time as its our local site to get the caravan out and tested before going further afield again. Couldn't fault the site, decent pitches, immaculately clean and friendly staff - would certainly return and would recommend without hesitation.

Convenient for Dover ferry
Easy check in by picking up envelope with instructions on how to locate our pitch. All very straighforward with minimum fuss. Facilities looking a bit dated but functional and clean.
