Date of Visit: August 2010 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Marze1963 2 reviews from this member

 Spent the weekend here to try out our new tent and was very happy with the site.

The reception area was pleasant with a small amount of groceries and fresh meat on sale and the staff happy to help.

The pitch was level and spacious and did not feel cramped at all.

The toilet and shower block was excellent,very clean and well kept,the shower cubicles had underfloor heating which was a pleasant surprise.

Another find was an adequate play area for the children segregated in appropriate ages with a games room.

Overall felt the site was very good,only five minutes from ashford with plenty of supermarkets and shops and five minutes from the m20 motorway

 I would definitely recommend Broadhembury to anyone visiting Kent.

The site was well maintained, the showers/toilets were clean, had plenty of hot water even when busy and the staff at reception were very helpful, with a daily weather bulletin, handy, if not terribly well stocked shop (although Tescos was 5 mins. Away) and a good little map for finding pubs, fish and chips etc.

The campers kitchen with freezer and fridge made keeping the 'barbie' steaks for a couple of days very convenient.

My son is 8, and found plenty to do with new friends. The indoor area for the kids is a very good idea. I don't know how many times I played table tennis !

Being located just south of the M20 made travelling around Kent a breeze.

 Have just spent our 5th visit this year on this wonderful site, our friends visited last month and were so impressed they came back with us and have said that they will visit again.

We stay mostly on the adult field and can't wait for the new toilet & shower block to be opened next spring (not so far to walk). The high standard facilities are located in the family field with hot showers underfloor heating and a very good kitchen.

The staff are very friendly, the managers & lovely wardens often stop for a chat whilst keeping their eye on things.

Looking forward to a return visit in October.

 Just returned from a nine night stay at this lovely little site and would definitely recommend it to others. We are a family of four (kids are 7 and 5) who love spending time together and love the outdoors but don't like 'roughing it' too much.

Broadhembury was absolutely perfect for our needs. Just about big enough to feel like a holiday site but small enough to feel safe and cosy.

We explored every inch of the local area and found it to be a wonderful place for young families with so much, of such variety, to see and do.

Our kids had more freedom on this site than any other due to it's nice cosy feel. They loved the free soccer school and had a great time making friends with kids of all ages on the football field. We loved going for quiet evening family cycle rides around the local lanes dreaming about which houses we'd buy if we won the lottery!

As for the site itself:

Pros: Lovely calm, relaxed site, Neat and tidy, Spotless facilities with lovely hot showers, Great play area/park, Lovely friendly staff.

Cons: Ever so slightly cramped in terms of the facing units, Too many empty seasonal units which detracted slightly from the atmosphere.

If we ever go back to the area we would definitely stay at Broadhembury again! 


Date of Visit: April 2010 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Helenterrapin 5 reviews from this member

 We booked for 9 nights (post-Easter week)- 2 adults in a tent. Only stayed for 5 night in the end because of poor weather.

Nice site in a good location for access to local area. Some noise noticeable from the dual carriageway, but it wasn’t intrusive. Several supermarkets locally. Helpful staff live on the adults only section.

The site is in two parts. There is an adults only section, but this did not appear to have any toilet/shower/washing up facilities- so not really suitable for tents because of this. The reception/shop/information cabin was located here. The other part of the site is located across a farm lane. There is a code operated gate to access this section. We stayed on this part, which was level with circular access roadway around. On one side of this were static caravans. There are hedges splitting the field up into largish sections. The touring pitches were around the edge of each section, which leaves plenty of grass in front. There were hard standing pitches around the central roadway.

Most pitches appeared to have access to EHU although not all. Water taps, grey water disposal and bins were located in several place on the central roadway.

Clean and heated washrooms, washing up area with fridge, freezer and microwave and a laundry. It was very quiet when we stayed, so I don’t know how these would cope when the site is full. There was a field available for ball games etc behind the amenities block and a children’s play area and games room.

When we arrived the ground was very wet and they were not allowing vehicles to drive onto the grass pitches. It was very quiet with only a few pitches occupied midweek, but a few more arrived at the weekend. Quite a few seasonal caravans, but nobody using them when we were there.

Reviewer: Sainswor 7 reviews from this member

 Had a great week at this campsite.Facilities are first class.Showers and toilets are plentiful and always had hot water for showers.The campers kitchen was great due to it being hot you can put food in a carrier bag in the fridge also use of the microwave.Tesco supermarket 5 minutes drive or 30 minute walk.

The pitches are spacious and the staff helpful with ideas for days out. Will definitely recommend the site to others.Great site if you are wanting a stop over on the way to France as 20 minutes drive from the channel tunnel and 30 minutes to Dover.

Reviewer: Hiophiop 8 reviews from this member

 This site ticks a lot of boxes.

The staff are very efficient, the site is very clean and tidy, the facilities are excellent (including the very clean shower block, campers kitchen, kids play areas and games room) and it is a very quiet spot.

Having said all of the positives I have a few negatives that, even though the site was great, might make me think twice about returning in a hurry.

1. The staff are a little too eager to maintain the rules. You frequently see them riding round and you feel like you are being closely watched at times.

2. The tent pitches are just a bit too small for me. Our tent is not big, but it was a fairly tight squeeze with vehicle and those pitches opposite were just a bit too close for comfort.

3. The site is perhaps just a tad too quiet. The 'return to tent' by 10pm and 'no noise at all' after 11pm means that after 10pm when we were there you felt that even unzipping the door was going to wake everyone up.

I understand that different people look for different things in a site, but I personally would appreciate a bit more of a chilled out approach from the staff and a bit more space.

Reviewer: Handm 3 reviews from this member

 Great location as we were waiting for our son to return from France. Site is very well maintained. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Site was very secure, had a pin number gate to enter. We felt as if we were in Holland as many Dutch visitors, who were very friendly and made our stay very interesting.

Location good to visit areas around Kent, and there are some very nice walks around the campsite.

Play area was good for children, and there was football tuition at the weekend, don't know if this was a regular event, but did not annoy campers as play area was set away from tents.

Would return to site. 


Date of Visit: May 2010 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Sjharwood 5 reviews from this member

 Back for a 2nd visit along with 6 other families. 2 nights in assorted tents and trailer tents.

From the moment I picked up the 'phone to start the booking process to the moment the last people checked out we received 1st class service (and always with a smile!).

This site simply gets it right! A fantastic balance between good value, good facilities, good pitch sizes, sensible site rules, cleanliness and access to other amenities.

Weather was not clever at all, but with a substantial indoor play centre (Imagine) only 5 minutes drive away we were able to keep 14 children occupied for a few hours - in fact a few of the mums even managed to get to the large Designer Outlet Mall that is also only about 5 mins away!

When back at the site, in between the showers, the children and adults alike made good use of the ball games area, the playground and the games room.

As for the shower block. Excellent! Underfloor heating, and I've never had to turn the temperature down before because the hot water was so warm.

We will be back. Highly recommend.

 The site is delightful. Clean and well kept with electric hook up and a large selection of facilities. The staff were helpful and friendly. Another gem of a site to find in February!

Date of Visit: October 2009 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: D S B 26 reviews from this member

 Visited this site many years ago so decided it was time to revisit it. The site is divided into two and the new part, near reception is spaciously laid out. The older part, across the road seems far more cramped and the pitches varied somewhat in size, and the circular access road was a little on the narrow side. The staff on the site were extremely friendly and helpful and the site was really well looked after.

Unfortunately, a mix up with our booking meant that we received an apologetic phone call 4 days before the start of our break saying they were no longer able to offer us a full serviced pitch - a EHU hardstanding was offered instead, which we accepted. On our pitch, the car had to be parked on the tarmaced area which was like a widened part of the road at the head of our pitch. This meant that our pitch was very close to the one next door. After putting up the (large porch) awning, there was little more than 1 metre between the awning door and the back of the caravan next door, making it probably the smallest pitch we have ever used, with no grassed area in between. I think it would be in order for the site to revisit the siting/size of some pitches in the older part of the site.

Other than the particular pitch we were given, the comments of other reviews I agree with. The site is centrally positioned for visiting many areas of Kent and is fairly close (10 min car ride) to the Tesco supermarket. The site provides information about local pubs etc and the recommended fish and chip shop is certainly 5-star.

The site didn't really 'do it for us', but I can appreciate that those who were better sited would be really happy.

Reviewer: Bigmark 18 reviews from this member

 Wife and I stayed here for a week and half in September. It was our second caravan type holiday using my sisters Swift 6 birth.

What a lovely little site.

Could not ask for better service.

There is a little shop for essentials but there is a Tesco just up the road.

The Queens pub does a lovely breakfast for a really great price for down south.

I will go back again sometime

Reviewer: Mitchjc 4 reviews from this member

 Stayed at this site during a wet school half term. The site did not get muddy and remained clean. The shower blocks were always clean and warm and the showers hot enough. The play area and TV room were a big hit to all the kids and the campers kitchen a great idea. The reception staff were helpful but some of their local knowledge was not good (they could not tell us which local beaches allowed dogs). The dog walking field was good. My only complaint was that we had to pay extra for a larger pitch which had we not mentioned the size of our tent we probably would not have needed as the pitches were good size.

Reviewer: Carol cowan 1 review from this member

 We spent a week on this campsite. We found it very roomy and everywhere was very clean.

The only problem we found was the children used the road way through as a race-track though they all seemed to play well together.

The other problem we found and others as well was the children in the shower block were unsupervised and were messing around shouting and screaming which did put me off having a shower there and I ended up showering in the caravan for peace.

Reviewer: Taz58 13 reviews from this member

 Showers, toilets and washing up areas were all kept wonderfully clean as was the whole site in general. Very handy to have a freezer and fridge to use where you can put your food in a marked bag for up to 5 days all free of charge!Microwave oven use was free too.

If you want a quiet pitch go for the adults only area which is the opposite side of the lane to the main site as at the weekends it is invaded with loads of kids on bikes etc screaming and shouting and going round and round the main area from first thing in the morning until late at night!Despite there being a 'all quiet after 11pm' there were nights when midnight and gone large groups were still partying!There is also a certain amount of noise all the time from the main road and trains; we were there for 2 weeks and it didn't make any difference with the wind direction!

The shop has all the basic stuff and has visitor leaflets available with train and bus timetables all sorts of local info. There is a big Tesco with a petrol station just a few minutes up the road which is really handy.

Staff were friendly and helpful.

All in all a good site for families.
