 What a lovely relaxed site, and Lorraine is so kind and very much in control of this beautiful little site amid the orchards. Ideal stop over for the channel ports. Toilets are clean and functional and continually being upgraded. Plenty of 20ps needed for water though. Stayed here many times in the past but this year have had opportunity to visit several times already to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.
Surrounded by beautiful countryside it's hard to believe the close proximity to the M2. Play area within walking distance, and the pretty Alma Pub is just across the road. The site would benefit from a small area set aside for kiddies to play, although having said that our three daughters and their families have joined us here with Outwell humongous tents and one with a caravan. With the eight grandchildren ranging from ten to three months we totalled 16. Had a smashing time.
The City of Canterbury is not far, and the many beaches in this part of the south east are within driving distance. The Market town of Faversham is ideal for shopping, or further afield you have the towns of Whitstable and Herne Bay served by the big 24 hour supermarkets. We will definitely be back.

Super site Lorraine the Warden very nice. Good facilities (very clean and paying for showers means not waiting ages) and plenty of hookups really enjoyed our stay will be back soon if we can fit it in.
Well sign posted and very easy to find. Toilet block big enough to get my disabled scooter in so even though no disabled facilities I did ok better than and the washrooms are being refitted this year so next year even better.

A lovely site surrounded by orchards with level pitches. Facilities are basic but adequate and you need 20p's for the showers and 10p's for hot water for the basins and washing up.
We spent 4 nights here and although the site is small, it never got crowded and was the quietest site we've stayed on for a long time - excellent if you like undisturbed sleep! For this reason the site probably wouldn't suit lively groups or families with older children.
Just a few yards up the road from the site is a small children's playground with swings, roundabout, basketball hoop etc. Across the road from this is the Alma pub which you MUST visit! At present it's a Shepherd Neame pub so Masterbrew and Spitfire were available, as well as bottled ciders. We had a lunch and a dinner here and the food and service was superb. There is an enclosed garden with a climbing frame for the kids, though you are welcome to take children inside.
There is no shop in the village so if you need any supplies you have to drive to Faversham which is about 2km away. However on the upside there is a cider farm in the village where you can go and buy cider and apple juice 'from the door'.
Whilst staying here we visited Wingham Wildlife Park which is east of Canterbury which was very enjoyable - a bit run down in parts but very entertaining for kids with all the usual animals and a huge playground suitable for all ages. There are also indoor and outdoor swimming pools in Faversham.

Our first vist to the campsite was 5 years ago. We found the campsite by accident what a pleasant accident that was. We have been visiting every weekend since, also have taken our annual holidays there too. Our grand children have visited regular and stayed with us often. We have always found the lady in charge Lorraine very helpful and always pleasant the site is always very clean and tidy.
Roll on next year!.
(My grandaughter Danielle wants to add her comments)
Hi and just to say that ever since I went to Painters Farm I have enjoyed it so much, because of Lorraine (the head of the camp site)
You always see her with the biggest grin I have ever seen!. There is plenty of things to do, can't wait to get back there!.

My wife and I stayed at Painter's Farm this last weekend.
What a lovely spot! We immediately fell in love with the charm of this little orchard site.
Facilities are fine but the showers were not too warm and yes, you need plenty of 20p pieces!
We did not visit The Alma, the local pub, but the friends that we camped with who have stayed here numerous times told us that it was wonderful. We will certainly pop in there next time we camp here.
I agree that this is not a good site for children; more suitable for quiet adult groups. I would not recommend this site for a large noisy group. This site is a haven for those who like a peaceful idyllic weekend.
Highly recommended.

Great Site. Very friendly owners, good clean facilities, but the showers needed plenty of 20p pieces, I would have preferred them to charge me an extra pound or so a night and have free showers.
For people considering using public transport like myself the local buses where very few and far between and none on a Sunday. Although when they did run they went all the way to Whitstable which was a nice trip out.
The owners of the site were very friendly and always there to help,
Would stay there again. Hope this helps

Small, clean and friendly site. Conveniently close to M2 which also means some traffic noise. No ball games allowed on site, presumably as space limited and cherry tress around. However, lovely pub just a few minutes walk away with children's playground opposite. Site recommended.

Lovely small quiet picturesque site. Great for weekend away. Showers were a bit 'nippy', and require 20p's, as does hot water at dishwashing sinks (this is always a gripe of mine, make them free and charge me an extra pound a night on my fees!).
The local pub is 2 minutes walk away and does the most fantastic food, which really made the weekend for us.

A lovely, quiet site. Not really suitable for active kiddies, but very friendly, extremely helpful site owner.
A very peaceful setting, but very handy for great local pub - good meals available.
Handy for motorway (M2 junction 6) and gorgeous Kent town of Faversham. Leeds Castle only 20 mins away. EXCELLENT VALUE SITE. Good, clean facilities. Owner takes great pride in personal attention. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Peter & Joyce Ballantyne.

An excellent site full of "Kentish Charm" straight out of "The Darling Buds of May"; set in a Cherry orchard. Mainly level, grassy site with ample hookups and a small on site shop for basic provisions. Toilets, showers and the dishwashing area all spotless. Wardens are extremely friendly and helpful. Good pub with excellent food most nights newarby (2 mins walk). Close but far enough away from Faversham town and M2 motorway - Canterbury, Medway and the cross channel ports within easy reach.
A must visit site that you will return to again and again.
