Palace Farm is in the small quiet village of Doddington in the heart of the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, an area famous for its scenery, wildlife, walking, cycling and history.
Our campsite offers traditional camping either in your own tent or hire one of our tipi style tents. We are a family run QUIET tent only campsite in a lovely green field with nature and wildlife as its neighbours. We ask all guests to respect the peace and quiet (unfortunately we can't guarantee that Green Woodpeckers, Little Owls, Pheasants, other wildlife or our chickens to do the same)!!!
Our Hostel is a green tourism Gold Award winner and we are proud to also offer natural and sustainable tourism at our camp site.

The village boasts a Butchers Shop with deli counter, see www.swdoughty.co.uk a Garage with convenience store www.doddington-service-station.co.uk and a great Pub, The Chequers which serves good food, to book phone 01795 886366.
We allow camp fires only in one of our hired fire pits. Book in advance (limited numbers only). For health and safety reasons no fires allowed directly on the ground, only wood or charcoal to be burned.
Please note that we do have a strict rule of not gathering wood from the hedges and trees around the campsite or from the local countryside.
Logs from our local woodman are available for purchase.

Pre-pitched tents, very similar to Tipis.
This year we have some pre-pitched tents for hire, see them on our information page as we get them set up for the summer. These will have a good ground sheet, a couple of mattresses for Mum and Dad and some sleeping mats for the kids, bring your own sleeping bags. Outside the tent there will be a fire hearth.

Please note that we do not allow Chinese lanterns to be launched from Palace Farm.
Chinese lanterns (also known as wish lanterns, sky lanterns, Kahoom Fay and Japanese paper lanterns) pose a grave threat to cattle, sheep and horses from the potentially dangerous wire and bamboo used, they are also a serious fire risk. |

We look forward to meeting you, Graham & Liz Cuthbert
