Why stay here ...
Our CL is a well tended, peaceful site set amidst 20 acres of fields and lakes in the village of Smarden, situated in the beautiful 'Weald of Kent'. Ideally situated for exploring the castles of Leeds, Sissinghurst and Bodiam, the Kent and Sussex Railway in Tenterden, The Kent and Sussex Coast and the many historic and pretty surrounding villages. There are numerous footpaths to explore or country lanes, for those who prefer their enjoyment on two wheels. There are local village amenities including pubs, tearooms and a small supermarket. For those interested in conservation, the Wildlife Heritage Foundation Big Cat Sanctuary, is just a short walk from the site.
The site incorporates 'Sam's Lakes' a coarse fishery which has two well stocked lakes which contain Carp, Tench, Bream, Roach, Rudd, Chub, Barbel, Perch and Gudgeon. The CL site is just 40 yards from the lakes (screened by a hedge) and is suitable for disabled visitors. The pitches are located on a lawned 0.75 acre field, with EHU and usual facilities. Well behaved dogs are welcome (plse speak to owner at time of booking) and we offer a dedicated dog exercise area within the site.

Fabulous, campsite and fishing lakes
Roland House Farm and Lakes
All about this campsite is perfect, the owners are so helpful and very welcoming, the poor owner has to tell everyone that there is no toilet and shower block, which is printed in the book and she keeps asking for it to be removed. All the areas are so well look after and must take a lot of effort to keep it so good. The fishing is a extra bonus, which is very good.
Excellent Cl
Roland House Farm and Lakes
We stayed here for 3 nights at the end of October
Even with the terrible weather over the last few weeks the site was immaculate
Fishing was quite easy from the 2 lakes with plenty of carp surrendering to my rods
Aerial displays and multiple parachute jumps occurred during our stay (nearby aerodrome) and listening to the lions roaring in the evening from the nearby sanctury was a treat
There is a railway line that borders the property but in didnt detract from our stay
I would have no problem reccomending this site to others and i think we will return ourselves next year when the weather is better
Fantastic site
Roland House Farm and Lakes
This is one of the best CLs we have ever stayed on. We were welcomed on arrival and taken to the site which was kept meticulously tidy throughout our stay. Through a little walkway were the fishing lakes (Sam's Lakes). These lakes were excellent! My husband caught his biggest fish yet which was a 20lb Grass Carp. He was very happy! There is a small cafe by the lake and the couple who run this were also very helpful - especially when my husband tried to land his fish!
Definitely a site we would like to return to.

All CL sites should be as lovely as this
Roland House Farm and Lakes
We have just spent a week here on this lovely site and can say without doubt it's the very best CL that we have had the pleasure to stay at. The owners are very welcoming and approachable they keep the whole site perfect. The lakes are so well looked after everything is clean and a real pleasure to fish in such perfect surroundings. The nearby village of Headcorn is a gem we had fresh bread daily from the bakers the butcher next door was excellent great produce and good value.
We live in Kent so not too far for us as we live in east Kent on the coast the area around the site was a lovely contrast very pretty villages and countryside, lovely to hear the wild cats at the big cat sanctuary close by. Can't recommend this site highly enough look forward to many more visits .
Fantastic site
Roland House Farm and Lakes
The most well looked after site we've ever stayed at and the owner goes out of his way to look after guests. Even drove me to the nearest cash point in his own car so we didn't have to take the MH.
The site is well sign posted so easy to find. Easy access and flat. I would recommend this site to anyone
