About Oak View Holiday Park
Oak View Holiday Park occupies a peaceful spot on the slopes of the North Downs above Maidstone, attracting a loyal following among families and dog owners who appreciate its well-maintained facilities and genuine welcome. The site offers pitches for tents, caravans and motorhomes on a mix of grass and hardstanding, all served by a high-specification shower block that's kept to a good standard throughout the season. A dedicated pet washing area underlines the park's thoughtful approach to four-legged guests, while a fully equipped laundry room caters for longer stays.
Detling village and its pub sit nearby, with Maidstone's shops and Leeds Castle easily reached by car. Rochester's cathedral and castle lie around twenty-five minutes north by road. Some visitors note that the site can feel a touch tired in places, but the combination of solid touring facilities, generous dog-friendliness and genuine North Downs countryside makes Oak View a practical, well-run base for exploring Kent's heritage towns and countryside.

What visitors say
We were right on the North Downs in this lovely Campsite, surrounded by trees and countryside. The Holiday Park name does it an injustice, there are no static vans, no clubhouse, no pool, it's just a nice campsite. The staff are really great, we recieved a friendly greeting and were shown to our pitch by another helpful lady in a gold buggy. The EHU pitch was the perfect size for our 7m tent, just under some trees and open onto the big central field area. EHU is 16amp and worked faultlessly. They are installing meters that include credit each day as part of the charge. The facilities were modern and really clean. The showers worked well and there are plenty of sinks to wash up in. The kids had a great time in the secure and safe site. It's in the countryside, so we were happy to let them go off exploring. There is a footpath into an adjacent beautiful wood that they went to a few times, plus the central field has loads of kids playing on it. The fish and chip van on Saturday was very good. Our food was excellent, and your can even place orders by text message and arrange a time for collection. Well located site for the Downs, Chatham Docks, Rochester and Canterbury. A short drive along the coast you also have everything in Thanet and the lovely beaches. Maidstone had all the shops and services, Chatham town was a bit grim, but Rochester was stunning. Well definitely return to this site, a perfect location and really easy to get to.

A well managed site with clean toilet ( shower and toilet rooms) and facilities. Spacious pitches with lots of shade. Note there are no dedicated MH services.Not a big issue.
