 Have just had our second visit to this lovely friendly campsite. Our last visit about 2 years ago in a caravan was lovely and this visit although in a tent was just as lovely. We spent 5 nights here with 11 and 14 year old girls.
The site is very clean and tidy with plenty of hot water and good washing up area, we arrived on Thursday and site was fairly full and Friday was full up. This did not cause any problems (they opened an extra shower and toilet block) and every time me and or one of the family needed to go to the toilet or have a shower there was never a queue. The shed that has a microwave, 2 fridges and freezer was very handy to keep a few things we needed cold and to freeze our blocks.
Everyone is so friendly and helpful, we bought some logs and was lent a fire pit to use with them. The location was perfect with so much to do. We went to Hastings castle and smugglers caves, the light house at dungeness, also did some fishing there in a very windy sea (fishing is possible nearly all time as the tide doesn't seem to go out very far and there is plenty of places to get bait) Dymchurch is another lovely place to visit, we had a nice breakfast there.
On our last day we went to Go Ape Tonbridge, which we all enjoyed very much (Beware though as the signs for it are awful, it is in the forestry site) A very big thank you again for such a lovely stay, we will definitely be back soon, and might try the lovely little cabins just the two of us.
Happy camping if you try this site, there is nothing negative that I can say about it

Was good to be back at this site again. Easy to find, it's spacious, flat, grass the right length and good pegging. Facilities block clean and modern, showers free with decent pressure + temperature control.
Covered washing up area attached to the block with hot water. The only niggle is that the hot taps (+ maybe the cold, cant remember!) are those push button ones that cut off within a second or 2. Staff friendly and helpful. Prices reasonable particularly if you're 2 adults+car. EHU pitches available.
New Romney about a mile walk via a footpath that starts opposite the site entrance. For fish and chips ignore the one in the high street and go to the Rod + Line near the mini-railway, top quality, good portions and not as expensive.
The Aboyne House in the high street does excellent moules et frites, and La Vinci does excellent pizza's as well as pasta etc but booking is advised = very busy. Not impressed with the pubs.
Very good butcher in the high st and there's a big Sainsbury on the towards - Dover road.
Many places a nearby drive including the sea and Dungeness (or take the mini-railway)

Just returned from a 4 night stay at Romney Farm and it was great! Good central location for exploring the area. We visited the RH&D Railway, Hastings and Tenterden.
New Romney high street is lovely with lots of little shops and cafes for afternoon tea! Facilities were spotlessly clean and although only 2 showers and toilets in one block there is another block that is opened when the site is busy. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful and full of local knowledge.
A small cafe on site but this was sadly closed due to flooding from the torrential rain the day we arrived. A lovely peaceful but extremely family friendly site, children have to be in own areas by 10pm and no noise between 11pm and 7am so a good nights sleep for all!
There is a fairly busy road at the front only real traffic noise was from around 7am with rush hour so didn't affect us at all. The bottom camping field was quite dark so a torch is definitely needed for loo trips but that's the joy of camping! A place I would love to visit again.

Just returned from our 2nd visit to this campsite and it is still as great as it was last year. Yes, the toilet block is at least a 2 min walk from the furthest point in the tent field and yes you will need a torch but surely being able to see the night sky compensates for this.
We have 3 young children between our two families who just love the open space to play, be it football, rounders, kite flying or just learning to ride their bikes. They made new friends and played in a safe environment.
Fire pits and bbqs are available as are blocks to avoid burning the grass. Logs can be bought from reception. There is also a microwave and fridge freezer for campers to use.
Fish & chips from New Romney (fish & peri) were good and its only a short car ride or bike ride to Dungeness.
Only downside is road noise. It's not excessive but it does exist. Although there aren't many places left where you can completely escape traffic.
All in all a terrific little site, helpful staff, not over regulated with rules, clean and tidy attractive fields and clean facilities. Will definitely return.

A very friendly site which was perfectly located for our cycling holiday. The owners made us very welcome and their cafe was a great social addition to our time there.
The surrounding hedges provide some protection from the wind and the site is level and well maintained.

I just went for one night very friendly clean. But toilet and shower block too far away you have to go across tent field across motor home field no lights.
But only 2 toilets 2 showers so don't think will go back I could hear people going to toilet outside their tents there was not enough toilet and shower block and just too far to walk at night and no light to see where you were going, but very clean

Lovely open site surrounded by embankment and hedges. The site and facilities really well done. Clean toilets and showers, really friendly and helpful warden.
We camped for 4 nights including the weekend. Friday and Saturday were busy but not crowded.
Winds can be strong, we camped sheltered by the embankment.
The site also has a small cafe. Facilities included wooden hut containing a microwave and fridge freezers for campers with no electricity.
Visited New Romney for restaurants/pub and shopping. Also visited Dungeness nature reserve and went for a ride on the steam train. Did a nature walk with the ranger and learnt about the area.

Lovely, low-key site. A spot for people with real camping spirit, whether you're in a tent or van. No frills but all done really well. Clean loos and showers, really friendly & helpful staff. This reviewer was camping without children, but those that were staying on the site seemed to be enjoying the freedom of simply being outdoors making their own fun (there's no dedicated play area).
A short 15 min walk across fields takes you to into New Romney if you're in need of restaurants/pub. A 5 mile walk/cycle/drive takes you to Dungeness nature reserve.
The site also has a small cafe. Didn't try it but good to know it's there if the weather's too awful to cook breakfast outside, and a spotless wooden hut contains a microwave and fridge freezers for campers with no electricity.

We have just returned from a stay of 4 nights at this site and are absolutely buzzing from the experience.
This is the first time that we have camped as a family (2 adults and 3 children aged 15, 12 & 8) and was being used as a test to see whether we would be likely to go again, which largely in no small part thanks to the staff and facilities at Romney Farm we will now be embarking on future camping holidays.
On arrival at the camp site we were escorted to our pitch, with a guide and explanation of the facilities and site rules. The staff were friendly throughout our stay and helped in anyway that they could. The shower and washing up areas were clean and well kept. The microwave and fridge freezers being available were a good touch also. The WiFi was also a very welcome touch for our two daughters.
We stayed in the tent only field which did not have electrical hookups, although these were also available in a separate field.
On our arrival the campsite was very busy, however it did not feel crowded. The fact that the pitches were all around then outside of the field helped as it meant the middle area was clear and free for the children to play all kinds of sport without being a hindrance.
The one negative is that you can hear the main road throughout the night which can be a hindrance but after a while the noise is blocked out.
We will definitely be staying at this sight again in the future!

What a fabulous find. We used this site only for two nights really to practice our first tent. The site was very accommodating and all the staff are very friendly, approachable and helpful. They also are included in the rating.
The site is a great size both hook up and non pitches. Clean fresh toilets and very warm even hot showers. The washing up area is excellent.
Freezer and microwave available. An on site cafe us available although we never used it. I did at one point have the incidental music from Carry on Camping ringing in my ears as I viewed the site walking back to my tent. Its really quaint. The site was busy but certainly not crushed ir noisy. We took our dog who had a ball, there were no issues him not being in a lead, though he us very well behaved.
This site is a real find and with all the local sites around brilliant to use as a base.
Definitely be using thus site again, even for a quick getaway or long weekend. It is a MUST. Very well done team.

Lovely little site and we thought good value for money. Large non-electric field with pitches only around the edge so absolutely loads of space in the middle.
Didn't feel like you were too close to any fellow campers. Smallish but clean facilities, no frills, but no complaints.
Café on site, nice idea, just don't go in expecting a latte!

We are a family of 4 and have just returned from a last minute few days at this site. It is our 6th time and as before the owners and staff have not failed to impress.
The toilets, showers, washing up and fridge/freezer areas are kept impeccably clean! The grass is cut short making it ideal for tents.
If you are looking for a quiet relaxing site without a club house and big open field for children to play safely this is a perfect site. It is great for kite flying as both the serviced and non serviced areas have a great cross wind.
We were absolutely thrilled to see the on site cafe back open and run by a lovely lady called Sam. Our daughter asked her for chicken nuggets and although she doesn't have them on the menu she said she would make them for her. Our 5yr old was thrilled and ate every bit.
We have nothing but praise for the site and WILL be going again for another visit very soon.

What a fabulous site!
Absolutely loved it.
The facilities were nice and clean, the grass is beautiful, The whole site was well maintained - the owner takes real pride in it.
Particularly nice touch are the picnic tables in the non-electric field. You can just take them and move them near your tent - fantastic idea.
This site has a 'posh' look to it and yet it feels really relaxed and laid back. They allow campfires in raised pits - and they even let you borrow some at no cost.
The site is well situated too, only a 15 drive to nice beaches. (albeit close to a relatively well-traveled road, but you hardly notice it)
All in all, a real gem.

Have just spent an excellent weekend at Romney Farm campsite. From my initial email enquiry to check availability through to leaving was dealt with in a professional & friendly way by the staff at the site.
The site is barrier controlled with plenty of parking to check in. There is a small cafe on site which is open 7 days a week, can't comment on this as we didn't use it.
There are 2 fields for camping, one with ehu and one without. All the pitches are around the outside leaving plenty of space for our kids to play in without being a nuisance to anyone else. Apparently, communal games with children and adults all joining in isn't uncommon if busy.
The grass is cut very short with hedging around the entire boundary it makes for a pretty site.
The toilet block was always clean as was the washing up area. There is a small shed with a large fridge/freezer and microwave for tenters.
Bbq's and fire pits are allowed, bricks are available for you to use so you don't burn the grass. Logs and coal can be bought from reception as can ice creams.
Good sandy beaches can be found at Dymchurch and Camber Sands, both a short drive or a wild pebble beach at Dungeness.
If I wanted to be really picky you are quite close to a road and traffic noise can be heard but isn't a major issue.
As this site is only 35miles from our house it makes for a great quick weekend retreat and one which we will definitely return to.

We have just returned from two days staying at Romney Farm. We can thoroughly recommend it and would definitely go again if we were in the area. From booking on the phone right through to leaving, the service was excellent and very friendly. We had a lovely welcome from the owner on arrival.
There are separate fields for camping and for caravans and motorhomes. Both are large, flat and open with well cut grass. The sites for motorhomes/caravans are round the edge of the field and are large, marked by simple wooden pole fences. The field is surrounded by pruned poplar trees and hedges. Considering it is one of the flattest areas of England, the views over the surrounding fields to distant trees were lovely.
The toilet/shower rooms were of a high standard and spotlessly clean. We used the free microwave situated in a small wooden 'garden house' - a very nice extra. There are good washing up facilities although we didn't use them.
There was so much local information and free leaflets etc in Reception.
