Pete’s Field campsite at Cole Farm – camping in the Kent countryside

Sorry – our pop-up campsite is no longer open

We set up Pete’s Field campsite at Cole Farm for around six weeks of blissfully basic summer camping every year between 2018 and 2022. It was the perfect place to switch off and read a book, to listen to the birds and to cosy up around the campfire. We offered 20 pitches for people who had their own tents and four simply-furnished bell tents for people who didn’t.

Cole Farm is situated in Paddlesworth, in the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, between the seaside at Folkestone and historic Canterbury. There’s plenty of great walking nearby – including the well-signposted North Downs Way – and there are some lovely beaches within a short drive. It’s close to quirky local attractions including the Battle of Britain Museum, the Elham Valley Railway Museum and the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway with the world-famous attractions of Dover Castle and Canterbury Cathedral not far away either.

We would love to run a campsite again and continue to look for the perfect location. Do get in touch if you think you have one or want any advice on running a pop-up campsite.
