Ideal site if you like peace and quiet!

Howletts Farm
Made an overnight stay here on way back home. The site has plenty of room for 5 units so you hardly notice others. Limited facilities but OK if self contained. At 2023 they now charge £10 cash and worth it. Great as a stopover for South Coast, Dover is not too far, or to explore the area. Definitely come back if down this way again.

Great site and very good value

Howletts Farm
We really like this site and we’re very happy we found it. Access is easy from the A252. There is lots of space and the two fields are in good condition and pretty flat. The owners are very friendly and relaxed and responded very quickly to my initial enquiry . If you don’t need EHU and have your own loo and shower this a fabulous, quiet rural site. We’ve stayed several times now and have booked to go back.

Idyllic

Howletts Farm
Beautifully maintained, level, protected by hedges/trees all round. Fabulous views across wooded valley. Friendly relaxed owners. 20 minutes from Canterbury city centre, half hour from Whitstable seafront, but completely rural and peaceful. Only warning - don't trust your satnav if it picks the shortest route from the M2, as that entails some really narrow single track lanes: not fun. Much better to approach via the A28 and A252, turning off at Chilham. It's a steep climb, but less than a mile, up the approach lane, and infinitely preferable to losing a wing mirror to an oncoming van as we did on the satnav's suggested route. Would also make a great stop over for cross-channel trips.

Peaceful CL

Howletts Farm
What a lovely site! Came with another friend, the kids and dogs. Very welcoming and friendly and couldn't fault the facilities, water point and toilet emptying. It was so peaceful, yes it's on a working farm, but the noise of tractors passing was very minimal. Slightly sloping in places, but was not an issue and very well kept field and clean, surrounded by hedges and trees and when the sun shines it's like a sun trap. Just make sure you follow the directions given and not a Sat Nav. Will definitely be going back.. Thank you for a lovely stay.

One of the Nicest CL's We've Stayed At

Howletts Farm
This is a beautiful kept CL with plenty of space. Grass was extremely flat and well looked after. Good TV signal. Lovely Views with a friendly owner. Canterbury is a lovely city. The site is about 10minutes drive from the park and ride and a retail park with a Morrisons. It is about 15-20 minutes into Canterbury but parking was quite expensive. In relation to the noise, we can only say we found this site quiet and relaxing. There was no road noise as it really is in the countryside and their was only the odd tractor went by. However, we found the owner very helpful so I'm sure if people wanted to ask if it was a noisy time then she would tell you.
