Positive experience: such a beautiful view of Kent on top of the hill for free open daily but make sure if you come evening don’t leave your vehicle here and get locked it..check the timings open and close on the gates winter and summer times differ. Highly recommend for reset of mind and spirit for free also you can go hiking inside the forest for hours barefoot grounding hippie stuff picnic but no fires unfortunately allowed for bbq for safety of the reserve and animals completely understandable. No humans or cars in sight except the ones parked on site so peaceful and quite this is the true beauty of Kent but unfortunately clouds and sprayed stuff in the sky blocking the sunshine in May 2026 when we visit

Outstanding. Arrived here after a 5 mile walk from Aylesford. This is a calm relaxing spot with absolutely stunning views over the medway towns. Clean and tidy and well maintained, an ideal place to come on a warm day. Family friendly and easily accessible by road, cyclists and Horse riders.

A great place near the top of Blue Bell Hill to view the surrounding countryside. Can see for miles on a good day. There’s a free small car park on site & a few benches for sitting.

A free car park, with lovely views, and a great base for walking around the stunning downland surrounding Bluebell Hill. Only thing to bare in mind is Car Park Closes at 6pm.
