About Daisy's Meadow Retreat
Each adults-only bell tent at Daisy's Meadow Retreat occupies its own private five-acre meadow in the Kent countryside, complete with a woodfired Scandinavian hot tub and firepit – perfect for stargazing once the sun drops. The site sits on a 100-acre farm roughly halfway between the High Weald and Kent Downs, offering a wild swimming pond and 30 acres of ancient woodland to explore. Inside, expect a woodburning stove, cosy bedding, bean bags and basic camping kit; outside, reclining sunloungers and a separate tent housing an eco toilet and standing water pipes.
The bell tents are completely off-grid and accessed through two fields (by car if conditions allow), so you'll need to embrace a bit of rusticity. All logs are complimentary, and if you'd rather not cook every meal, breakfast or barbecue packs can be ordered. The village of Smarden – home to two pubs, a community shop and an art gallery – is a pleasant 10-minute walk across the fields.

The owners of this place are lovely, humans and animals.. they welcomed us, helped with everything and relaxed talked to everyone. Very late back relaxed camping, with animals to look at on the quiet evenings, very family feeling camping. Facilities are clean and cleaned, toilets are unisex compost in a wood shed, showers are covered with large overhead rain showers and great temperature. Showers are outside, with a covering. Simple, clean and friendly camping. The area is covered by large roads, beat walking routes are further away. Walking to Folkestone is via roads.

Just home from a fantastic 2 nights camping. The site is wonderful, a small campsite, with a real family friendly relaxed feeling. No gimmicks, just back to nature camping. We loved the relaxed vibe. Clean toilet and shower facilities. The animals made our daughters trip, and she was ecstatic to take home some peacock feathers! The baby alpaca was so cute (only 3 weeks old!). The site is secure and safe for children. The family ensured everyone was happy, and were so friendly. We loved it and want to come bs k soon! Thank you for The Pollak family

The family here are so lovely. Very welcoming and friendly. The site is gated off so feels secure aswell. Our daughter played with theirs. We really enjoyed our stay. Great hut, kitchen and firepit. Thank you for the wood. They have lots of animals, our children loved it. Close to shops, pubs etc. We wpuld like to stay again. Toilets are built into an old caravan, raally cool idea the site is laid out very well, and kitchen is in a mobile kind of room, so it's under cover should you need to cook when raining. Duvets, pillows, cooking equipment all provided. We were able to book glamoing for just one night too which is quite rare amongst some sites. Thanks alot Dan, Stacey and Eva, for a lovely stay.

We loved staying at this camp site. The owners were so accommodating and helpful. Great location, along with playful goats, amazing alpacas and peaceful pigs what more can want from a campsite!
