Black Horse Farm is a pleasant site with a nice pub and convenience store opposite the entrance. We used the site as a stopover en route to our ferry from Dover. It's very easy to find and allowed us to use the clean facilities and have a quiet night's sleep before our onward journey. We were staying on a Friday in August so many other outfits were doing something similar and all seemed to arrive and depart without any fuss. We were impressed to have a phone call from the site a week in advance of our stay explaining that if we are likely to arrive after 20:00, that we must phone on the day to receive a barrier code and instructions as to how to find our pitch. We were a little less impressed when I made the call on the day to say that we were likely to arrive at approx. 22:00. I was told that I could only arrive after 20:00 if we were coming off a ferry, not going to it. When I asked what difference it made, I was told that they were just obeying orders. I explained we could not make it by 20:00 and that when I called to make the booking some months ago to pay upfront (necessary for 'ferry pitches'), I explained our likely arrival time and was told that would be fine. In the event, they gave us a code and when we arrived, we followed the clear instructions and had no problems. I'm not complaining but I just think the Caravan Club need to think through the procedure a little more as the site serves a good purpose. I'm sure it would also be good for a longer stay but we were not there long enough to comment.
