About Folkards Farm Certificated Location

A small, peaceful CAMC site surrounded by woodland and fields, Folkards Farm sits just a 20-minute stroll from Brightlingsea town. The five pitches all have electric hook-up and welcome dogs, making it a straightforward base for exploring the Essex coast and countryside. Open year-round, it's a back-to-basics option – there are no on-site showers, toilets or facilities beyond drinking water, so you'll need to be fully self-contained.

The woodland setting gives it a genuinely secluded feel, perfect if you value peace over amenities. Brightlingsea's harbour, pubs and coastal walks are all within easy reach on foot, while the site's simplicity suits those who prefer a quiet pitch under the trees to a busy campsite with all the trimmings.

What visitors say

Tim Garner

A great place to stay. Secluded and peaceful whilst still being only a short walk into the town. Simon the owner and Tracey run a great site, can’t praise them enough for accommodating us at short notice. Overall a highly recommended site and we look forward to many more visits.

Beautiful place to stay, feels secluded in the middle of a farm but it’s only a short walk to the town center and sea front. Highly recommended.
