Quiet site, overpriced

Delf Nursery
As other reviewers have said this is a good location for visiting nearby towns as there is a good bus service within walking distance. The farm shop is handy too. However, at £28 a night off season it is overpriced as there are no toilet facilities and grass had not been mown in the field. In wet weather larger units would struggle to manoeuvre on the field. There is also a busy road near and some road noise.

Great Location, nice friendly CL

Delf Nursery
Nice CL, 10 to 15 walk into Sandwich and good links for either cycling or public transport to Deal, Walmer, Dover & Canterbury. Flat grass pitches with EHU , fresh water and black disposal. No WC or showers but ok as have these on board . Really good farm shop and owners really friendly and helpful. Will definately be back as we only had a couple of days and plenty more we want to see in the area

Great CL

Delf Nursery
Stayed for 7 days here. Very easy to find, good access and very level tidy field. The EHUs were well spaced out and the farmshop was very handy. Staff were lovely and very helpful. Bus stop outside which we used to get into Sandwich on a couple of evenings. Sandwich is well served by many pubs, food outlets, cafes, a chip shop and a few shops, including a co-op. We visited the Tenterden Railway, a lovely trip finishing at a National Trust property, in walking distance of the station. So, a quick visit and back on the steam train. Close enough to visit Dover, also the coast around Ramsgate/Margate, up to Whitstable. You could not run out of things to do and so relaxing when back at site. All in all a lovely holiday.

Great site, spacious field

Delf Nursery
This is a great little site, easy access, just far away enough from main road so traffic noise in minimal. In a really spacious field with great views to field with horses. Electric hook up and level too. Has shop on site, and walkable into lovely Sandwich along the Rope Walk by the stream. The Red Cow pub welcomes dogs and does a really nice platter for lunch. Good walks nearby, pathway by stream can get overgrown at the rear of the site, access is via village a few minutes walk.

Thoroughly Enjoyable Stay

Delf Nursery
Just got back from 4 nights at Delf Nursery, where we were accompanied by our friends, so managed to pitch both Motorhomes next to each other. Delf Nursery is set back from the road leading into Sandwich, and we all commented on how quiet and peaceful it was. The field is extremely large, so no problem pitching, and the CWD point and water points are modern and convenient. There is a bus stop within 5 minutes walk, Sandwich train station is 10 minutes walk and the quaint town centre 15 minutes away. Plenty of good pubs, a great Sausage Shop by the Guildhall. Ossie's Fish and Chip shop in the centre served some lovely grub for lunch one day Some lovely walks to the ruined Roman Richborough Fort, around the old Town Walls and across Royal St.Georges Golf Course (The Open should have been happening this week!). Lovely pub 15-20 minutes walk along the site boundary, the St. Crispin's Inn, at Worth, with good beer, and a huge beer garden. We also got the train into Deal (journey takes 7 minutes and costs about £2.75 single) and then walked to a superb pub in the beach at Kingsdown called the Zetland Arms. Including walking all the way back to the site that day we did 14 miles! The Farm shop has all you need (apart from no 6kg Calor bottles!), so you don't really need to shop before arriving. We really enjoyed our stay, and, as it is only 90 minutes from our home in Essex, we will be back. There's plenty to do and see if you want, or it's a lovely site to just chill out.
