Caracol camping

As we head towards summer this is the time to get out in the beautiful Kent countryside and enjoy everything that the Garden of England has to offer. What better place to do this than by camping at New Park Farm with Caracol Camping.

Caracol was conceptualised by two outdoor lovers, Ade and Claire, who worked with Michael to set up the camping site on a three-acre ex-asparagus field in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The site boasts incredible views over the Sussex countryside and beautiful sunsets. Following 18-months of planning Caracol opened its tent doors in the summer of 2022. Excitingly 2023 marks the first full season for the team. We are located in a wildflower meadow and have established a cobnut platt nearby. Fallow deer and badgers may be passing, buzzards and sparrow hawks will be circling above, whilst jays, tawny owls and great spotted woodpeckers will patrol the edge of the woodland. In developing the luxury site Ade and Claire have sought to upcycle and re-use wherever possible, using scaffold boards to make bedsides tables and benches. In addition to the tents we have a cosy reception barn, a well equipped kitchen and new showering facilities so guests can be comfortable in all weathers.

This is the perfect place to come and enjoy the outdoors, let the kids run around safely and disconnect from technology for a while. Guests can pre order custom hampers from Groombridge Farm Shop. They can then enjoy all the great Kent produce, some of which is from the neighbouring fields! Hampers can be delivered directly to your tent or alternatively guests can walk through the ancient woodland to explore the shop and pick up a coffee or ice cream, or both!.
