About Dunn Street Farm
This is a sheep and cattle farm on the North Downs, above the village of Westwell. Here the two camping fields are where hay is made in summer on the centre of the field while camping takes place around the perimeter. During the site's six month off-season the campsites are grazed by sheep. Lots of space for kids to blow off steam and play, with charming chickens, goats and more to be seen in the fields. The main camping field, Strawberry Field, is available for tent camping, caravans and campervans. Two sides of the field are equipped with electric for those requiring electricity (standard 16-Amp Euro sockets). The site is accessible to cars for unloading and loading only, which helps to keep the field largely free of traffic. The second camping field, Brocks' Paddock, is available on a limited basis for tent camping only and is popular with Duke of Edinburgh groups. Campers on Brocks' Paddock are permitted to keep their cars next to their pitches. There is also a shepherd's hut onsite handbuilt by the team using an old farm trailer. Sleeping up to four with a pull out double bed with bed sheets, pillows and duvets and a single over and under bunk bed with sheets only. There is also a fitted gas hob and sink and a cool box. Tea, coffee and kitchen essentials are provided. Outside is a BBQ and fire pit.
The site opens from Easter to September. Paddock pitches are available from 25th July.
Facilities available in the farm yard include ladies' and gents' toilets, plus showers, a fridge, a freezer, a washing machine and a kettle.
The nearest food shop is Co-op which is ten minutes away. The closest pubs are The Flying Horse and the Pheasant which are both also ten minutes away. There is an excellent café at Kent Gliding Club (five minutes).

Location is set in absolutely outstanding countryside, ideal for backpacking, walking, and cycling. However, we needed a one night stop as a long journey break from the continent, not far from Eurotunnel and complete tranquillity for a good sleep, hot shower and move on...which this site served brilliantly. Facilities are basic and clean. However no obvious reception or way of communicating with the site other than email...we pitched, slept, washed and left...
Great location and lovely stay

We had a lovely stay at Dunn Farm. It's in a beautiful part of Kent with lots of amazing countryside and villages to visit. Strawberry field is a great big field with lots of space between pitches. I woke up with the sun shining, the dog and BF next to me and the horses whinnying in the next field. Couldn't ask for more.

Things to do on site and in the Ashford area
Camping here is all about escaping hectic modern life, getting away from the internet apps or buzzing entertainment and focusing on nature.
There is a lovely large field for playing games, flying kites and having barbecues - and there are miles of paths and country lanes for walking and cycling.
There is more wildlife around the site than you can shake a stick at, so for anyone really stuck for ideas, wildlife I-Spy is a great idea, awarding, for example, 10 points for a squirrel and 40 points for a buzzard!
If you fancy a trip, it's only half an hour's drive to Canterbury with its famous cathedral, Whitstable and its tasty oysters or Tenterden.
