A Gem of a CL!

We would like to echo the positivity of the previous reviews. This is a wonderful CL, run extremely well by David and Susan who were excellent hosts when we stayed for seven nights recently, Although it is situated in a very rural location, there are lots of attractions very close by - accessible on foot, by bike and by car. Highly recommended!

Weekend retreat

We booked a 2 night stay and David was extremely efficient and prompt in all communications, even contacting us in the days leading up to say that poor weather was forecast and whilst the site would be open he would happily refund/rebook if we wanted. Being stoic we decided to go anyway as previous reviews had said the site drained well. On arrival it was clear that the site was beautifully maintained and David greeted us as we arrived and ran through all the features of the site, provided a local map and was very helpful and welcoming. He runs a tight ship and we felt safe and secure especially with the gate into the site remaining locked at all times with a combination lock. Our pitch was right next to David and Susan’s enclosure for their array of ducks and geese which suited us perfectly, entertainment just outside the window and we also bought some eggs which were delicious. David and Susan were very friendly and their posse of Yorkshire Terriers quite delightful. As predicted all the rain and strong winds that heralded our arrival were no problem and the site remained perfectly useable. Lots of lovely walks from the site, beautiful views and overall the prefect location for us to enjoy a peaceful weekend retreat.

Great Place to Stay

We've just spent four days at this site and it is so great. The weather hasn't been particularly kind, but.... David and Susan are great hosts with a lot if local knowledge and information. Pitches are level, we did use chocks, but could easily have not. Walks to village and pub, Dymchurch and St Mary's Bay, and the Romney Marsh Walks. Cycle route 2 is just up the road as well as the Romney Marsh Meanders Cycle Route 5. We will be back...

Not a wet site even if it is in a marsh.

Stayed here in mixed weather but the site was not wet. Rain seems to drain away The fields at The side of sits have lots of ditches. The site is smallish green field with helpful owner who maintains everything very well. No dog walks from the site. Lots of Wild birds here . The site has ducks etc in big enclosure and you can buy duck and goose eggs from the site. Very nice.

A great find

Spent 3 nights here in late April. Great communication in advance from David and a very friendly welcome on arrival. Easy 10 minute walk to The Star in St Mary in the Marsh which was a very welcoming friendly pub.nice walk in the opposite direction to Dymchurch via footpaths rather than roads. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent site

We will return! Excellent site, very friendly welcome No need for me to repeat all the reviews below, so to add two other items. It's a very good base for cyclists. Miles and miles of mostly flat back roads with little traffic, and very easy to create a loop as big as you like. Many good pubs and cafes in the area and for those that like seafront rides, then is 5 miles of sea wall to cycle along. Also worth noting. If you want your van cleaned, (Outside including roof £30-40, inside £50-60) contact GD Facilities http://www.gdfacilities.co.uk/ who are 100m up the road on the right.

Peace, tranquility and a warm welcome

We had our first visit in April of this year and will definitely be returning later in the season. The owners were super-well organised, welcomed us very warmly and nothing was too much trouble. The site is immaculate and in beautiful surroundings with everything we could wish for from a tranquil stay. There is lots to see and do, although we never got bored of the beautiful surroundings and incredible sunsets. And if you have dogs, as we do, there are footpaths a-plenty within a few minutes walk. A lovely stay.

Excellent CL

This was our first caravan trip of 2020 when lockdown was eased a little at the beginning of July. Shingle Hall Farm is only about 30 miles from our home and provided a welcome change of scenery, some excellent weather, a host of places to visit & warm welcome from hosts David & Susan. Thoroughly enjoyed our week there and hope to plan a return trip in 2021.

Lovely beautifully kept site

We have just returned from a 2 night stay. Arrival was easy and confirmed by David the day before we arrived, who opened the gate at the agreed time. Gate is always locked with combination lock which you are given on arrival. David was very welcoming and friendly and provided all the information we needed. We were a party of 4 with 2 motorhomes and were able to find the right way to park so that we didn’t need to use levellers. The location is lovely and surrounding area perfect for walks or cycling. We did a 10 mile walk across the fields and along the seafront, Littlestone and Greatstone. We ate out at The Star (pub) on the first night. It’s only about 15 minutes walk across the fields so a torch is definitely needed for the walk if it’s dark! Fortunately our meal there exceeded our expectations. If you go there you’ll see what I mean! This is, without doubt, the nicest, most immaculately kept site we have ever been to. Adults only (bonus!), water and toilet disposal. I think there are toilets in a small shed too but these were not open due to Covid. We have already booked to go again.
