About Black Horse Farm Caravan and Motorhome Club Site

Tucked into the Kent Downs near Folkestone, Black Horse Farm makes an excellent base whether you're hopping across to the continent or settling in to explore this corner of Kent. The spacious pitches—grass or hardstanding, some fully serviced—are well spaced, and the facilities earn consistent praise for their cleanliness. A dog park keeps four-legged guests happy, while families appreciate the play area and dedicated parent-and-baby washroom. Late arrivals benefit from a handy self-check-in system.

The site's real charm lies in its footpath access straight into the Downs, perfect for walkers and cyclists keen to lose themselves in the countryside. Local shops and a farmers' market are close by, and the Channel Tunnel is minutes away—ideal for early ferry departures. Some visitors note the campsite can feel a touch functional, but for a peaceful, well-run stopover or longer stay, it ticks the boxes.

Switchback Stays

Great campsite - always a friendly welcome. Clean and tidy site with spotless facilities. Easy bus ride into Folkestone. Pub within walking distance. Ideal for pre/post channel crossing stays. Highly recommended. We will be back soon!

For us, we just needed a stop over before getting the Eurotunnel the next day, but what a find! A dog walking area, small play area, hedges everywhere for privacy, beautifully clean bathrooms, sink and laundry facilities and very easy to check in. Loads of information about the local area included in your welcome envelope and your passcode for the gate comes via email. It’s a well oiled machine. We had time to go into Folkestone (18 mins away), which we also highly recommend. We’ll be using this site again.

We stayed here for one night, prior to getting the tunnel the morning after. We received email before we checked in to advise the procedure of self check in and all the details we would need. The pitch location was great being so close to the entry/exit, so allows a quick exit to get on your way to the tunnel/ferry. The campsite and facilities was very clean as you would expect from the Caravan & Motorhome Club. There is noise from the main road when staying on the ferry/tunnel pictures, but it didn’t stop us from sleeping. Campsite is located close to shops, fuel & places to eat out. We will definitely use this campsite again, on future Europe crossings
