Good for families

Good park which with a few improvements could be truly great

We stayed here for a few days this week and all in, would definitely return again. Having read some whingy reviews about roads and families I’d say these were not actual concerns. First, it’s a families site, there are kids on it and they will play. That’s what kids do. Apart from one noisy family setup over two caravans, who on the whole kept it down after 11, if you don’t wants kids, book an adults site. The staff were great - the lady who moved our pitch after the first day was super accommodating when I sent a grumpy email because we had been put behind the wardens cottage. They have to live there, so there is noise, but with many other empty pitches we asked to move and that was fine. Our pitch for the second day was perfect. Noise wise, as mentioned, there were kids having fun, but on the whole everyone, even the loud chat outside caravan ones stopped after 11. There is plenty nearby to get out and visit and Sissinghust Castle and Gardens in only 15 minutes away. We also went on the yellow walk, which at about 3 miles took us through some beautiful fields and orchards. The shop is well stocked and they take paper orders and have pastries on a weekend. We used the toilet blocks and had no major issues. They could do with an update and the floors being level means that a few people having a shower makes the whole toilet floor wet. Showers were good though. There was a smell of damp mops due to that being the wet floor fix, which I would personally look at. I’d also stop charging 20p for hair dryers. Just make them free or taken them out. It just looks like penny pinching asking for 20p. Staff wise there were plenty around and the park was being mowed and kept clean all the time. Washing up sink facilities were good, no issues there. The wifi did not work at all (and seemed there was a charge if it did, which again, is a little tight) and does not look, from reviews, like it has worked for some time. The Mobile signal is patchy but I was able to get a little work done and stream Netflix. My partner had no signal all through our time on park. All in, the site did exactly what it said on the tin, so a solid 4 stars. We would go back, which is the accolade, right? Some things I would fix if I were management, like the toilets, the wifi, the hair dryers and I would make it a little clearer on the welcome sheet when the quiet times are (it is not mentioned at all, but is on their site), but as a solid base for exploring Kent, thumbs up.
