Lovely small CC site with loads of hard standing pitches. Access was a small issue as we arrived at a similar time to 3 other outfits and were nearly backed out onto the main road. Luckily nobody else came in behind us until the queue had moved along. Slight road and rail noise, only noticeable one morning when I had woken up. Loads to do around the area. I took my children Mote Park, which has a good playground, nice walk around a large lake and boats, pedalos and kayaks to hire. We also went to the adjacent swimming pool for the Friday night Wave Rave (disco in the pool), which my two really enjoyed and so did I because it was only £14 for 3 hours in the pool, which has a flume, wave machine, dive pit and rapids. We also visited the museum in the centre of Maidstone, which was free and had some interesting collections for young and old. Our other day was spent at Herne Bay - Typical east coast small seaside town. The biggest endorsement for Bearsted is that I would not hesitate to return should we venture into Kent again.
