Things that really stood out for us: - warm welcome, Hannah showed us 4 different pitches to make sure we had one we loved - communication before & during was brilliant - we were really well spaced out between other pitches. Plus there are loads of trees and bushes to make it feel secluded - loads for the kids to do, see and explore. It felt really safe - facilities were clean and seemed to always be free We’d highly recommend and be back soon. Thanks 2 months ago Β· via Google Trine Hansen β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Such a great place to camp. Lots of space around each camp site, doesn’t feel crowded and it’s so clean and well looked after. The staff are so nice and respectful of nature. We’re definitely coming back! 2 months ago Β· via Google Jade Seatle β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… What a beautiful haven this place is. The facilities are exceptional with thought gone in to everything to make your stay comfortable. The sauna and outdoor shower were incredible and the bushcraft lesson with Pat was so much fun. A proper dedicated family run business and all your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed. It was beautiful to see my daughter running wild and free without worrying about her safety, a real gift! Thank you 🀩 a year ago Β· via Google Anna Macnaught β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… We've just come home from a 2 night stay at Nethergong camp site. We had such an amazing time. We were a large group of several families with kids ranging from 2 up to 10. Everyone had a great time and the site has absolutely everything you need. The wood fire pizzas were great, the cocktail cart was a real treat too. The little shop sells all the essentials plus bits and bobs for the kids and really good prices. And much to our delight we could have a flat white too! We stayed in one of the glamping bell tents and it was fab. Everything we needed was provided (cooking equipment essentials, cooker, BBQ, utensils, cups etc). We were a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids age 6 and 2) and we were very comfortable. Loads for kids to explore and do, with great activities (bush craft session) that the kids really enjoyed. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Such a great stay - we'll see you next year! a year ago Β· via Google [More campsites in Canterbury](https://staycation.co.uk/canterbury/camping) β˜… 4.7 (294 reviews) [Visit website](http://www.nethergongcamping.co.uk/?utm_source=staycation.co.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=campsite) [07901 368417](tel:07901368417) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Canterbury **County** Kent **Dogs allowed** βœ… Yes **Electric hook-up** ❌ No **Payment** Cards, Contactless 🏨 ### Prefer a hotel nearby?
