 What a Gem of a campsite, peaceful, clean and quiet.

Pete the owner was polite and helpful as was his mum.

I would definitely be staying again and have recommended Sunnyside farm to family and friends.

 A little gem of a site, so glad we found it. Not living a million miles away just perfect for a quick getaway. A warm welcome from the manager Pete.

2 pitches are hard standing and these receive the all day sun. Facilities are well up to date and all you need, just everything you get on a club site, but here, it is just peaceful!

Beautiful scenery all round with two of Kent's quaintest villages of Chartham and Chilham either side. Just a 10 minute ride (25 by bike-flat terrain)to the Wincheap Park n Ride to Canterbury which is always a must and from here so many choices of other destinations by Stagecoach.

So ideal for chilling or exploring. Definitely be recommending and returning.

 Great campsite. Despite being in middle of August it was quiet with lots of space between tents. Facilities were excellent. Location superb.

We cycled along the Stour Way into Canterbury which was a fab day out. We went out to Whitstable one day but didn't like it too much.

Had a lovely meal at the Compasses Inn. Would like to return to the site.

 We have had an excellent stay at this fantastic site. Well managed, clean and quiet. Pete the owner made us feel so welcome, we wish we had booked for longer. Nothing was too much trouble.

Runner beans were fabulous and Pete's mum was just amazing. Lovely group of people camping on site whilst we were there.

We have put this as our number one place to visit in the future. Thank you for enabling us to have an excellent break, we will be back.

 We have just returned from 6 nights at this lovely site. On arrival we were met by Pete the owner, who gave us lots of information regarding the surrounding area. Facilities are great, it was great having a washing machine and drier having little ones. Good value we recommend this site. Close to both Canterbury and Ashford also only approx 25 minutes to Dover for day trip to France.

 This site was everything the previous reviews said it was. Well maintained, great facilities and extremely helpful and friendly owners.

It was easy to find and just far enough of the beaten track to be quiet.

The location was ideal for a bit of touring ( Herne Bay was V disappointing tho')

However Chilham is lovely and the Woolpack is a great pub.

 This will be the second time I have visited this little site and I must say I have been blown away by both experiences. I first came when the site first opened, the site included toilets and showers with spacious pitches along with an amazing view across the country side. The owner Pete lives locally and was able to advise about the local area which is always extremely helpful!

After talking with Pete he explained the improvements he wanted to make with the facility’s and pitch areas, I promised to return as I could not believe he would be able to improve on this already flawless site. On my return to the site I could not believe the transformation the toilet and shower area had undertook, I love the fact one minute I am setting up my tent, and the next minute I feel like I am walking into a Luxury hotel. The little touches like a washing machine, sink and fridge really does go the extra mile for me.

I like to cycle when I get the chance, and in my opinion there is nothing like packing up a picnic for the day and taking the Crab & winkle cycle route from Canterbury right the way through to Whitstable. And after all that, returning to my little tent for a well-deserved glass of wine with nothing but the sound of birds to send me off to sleep. I rarely get the time away from work to enable me to relax, but when I do there is nothing that beats this little getaway I feel I have found.

I cannot recommend this site enough for anyone that just wants to get away from the daily grind and enjoy a peaceful long weekend away, I also cannot thank Pete enough for how welcome I was made to feel. If only I could get away here every week! I will most definitely be returning.

 A lovely site well worth a visit only a few manageable pitches and a great location. We used it as a 2 day stop over before our trip to France via Dover. Unfortunately our visit was marred by a grown idiot of a man who thought it would a good idea to play with his remote controlled car from 08. 30 till 20. 30 clearly spoiling the peace and quiet the site has to offer I did think of complaining but as we were only there for 2 nights wasn't really worth getting my Y fronts in a twist about. THIS HAS NO REFLECTION ON THE SITE OR OWNER, and I would return.

 Just back from a week at this gem of a site in rural Kent. The pitches are spacious and the facilities block (which includes 2 loos, 2 showers, wash up sink, washer, dryer, fridge, kettle) is kept well stocked, clean and fresh by Pete, the site manager. Nearby is the lovely village of Chilham - we had a delicious Sunday roast in the Woolpack Inn, highly recommended. Only 20 mins to the sea at Whitstable, some lovely little shops to browse there. Canterbury is just up the road for groceries and supplies. The Great Stour Way (which you join in Chartham, conveniently near the Artichoke pub!) is a very pleasant 3 mile walk into Canterbury. We had a super, restful week and would happily recommend Sunnyside Farm.

Reviewer: Dewdrop968 1 review from this member

 May Bank Holiday weekend and being newbies to the world of caravanning we arrived on site with some trepidation of what to expect. Soon after our arrival we met Pete the site owner. What a lovely friendly chap he is. He even helped us tackle an awning that was a challenge to erect. His helpfulness was greatly appreciated and left us in no doubt that nothing is to much trouble. This site is a little gem. Only 8 pitches, nice and quiet but still only 10 mins from the centre of Canterbury. The shower block is still ongoing but fully functional. This is ideally an adult only site. A rare sanctuary from modern day life.

At the rear of the site is a huge orchard for walking our dogs.

All in all we have enjoyed our first outing as caravanners. Thank you Pete for creating such a lovely site. We will be back!
