We had a lovely stay at Orchard View Park. It was just us for the night and it was really peaceful. Set amongst apple trees you get a real feeling of staying in Kent's countryside. The site feels secure as you have a coded gate for entry. You need to be self contained for this site as there are no facilities. Dog friendly and there is a good walk that starts across the road from the site that takes you out to views across the area (we watched planes practising a dog fight). A little piece of "getting away from it all"

Liked: Beautiful site. Children loved it as we were able to ride around the orchards on bikes. It is a working Orchard so you do need to be mindful of staff there, but they were all very friendly and didn't seem to mind the children at all. Very quiet and relaxed. Will definitely be back.
