Parking de départ en balade. Route passante à côté mais nuit calme et la vie est jolie sur la vallée.
Parking on departure. Road passing by but calm night and life is pretty on the valley.
Abfahrtsparkplatz für die Fahrt. Viel befahrene Straße nebenan, aber Nacht ruhig und das Leben im Tal ist schön.

Quiet spot when we turned up at 1am, watch out for the muddy patch in the middle where a tree used to be. We had a vehicle stop on the main road honking and hollering, someone jumped out and knocked on the van, I don't think there was any malice, just trying to have a laugh. We enjoyed a good rest up until 8am when the road got a bit busier... We will be back if we travel out through Dover again.
Looks like a great park up despite several very large water filled potholes (we navigated them fine) but we decided not to stay as we arrived quite late and there were 3-4 cars with very steamed up windows and it didn’t really make us feel very comfortable, might just be unlucky and Tuesdays are ‘special’ nights…
Great view. Minus one star for the busy road, the beeping of passing carts and some youth. Traffic goes down after 20. Despite that we were left alone and had a quiet night
Brilliant stop over before LeShuttle at Folkestone. Quiet night and surrounded by nature. Will use again!
Alles bestens für eine Nacht nach oder vor der Nutzung des Tunnels. Wir waren auf jeden Fall sehr zufrieden.
10 mins from the tunnel terminal. Well located to crash before the drive home. Bit of road noise but that’s all. A few large water filled potholes to navigate on the way in. Nice view.
Good place to stay, a couple of flat spots, the rest is very slightly sloping, but not too bad. some traffic evening and morning, but quiet at night. dog walk in field nearby,along the North downs walk. 1 bin for rubbish.
Ca 20min von der Fähre in Dover entfernt und daher ein guter Platz für eine Pause davor/danach. Einfacher Sandplatz mit ein paar Schlaglöchern. Super Aussicht und einige Wanderwege, falls man mit Hund unterwegs ist. Nachts ruhig, aber morgens viel Verkehr
good for a 1 night stopover , nice view but busy road
Stayed here as very close to Eurotunnel Very Busy but slept good the car park is very bumpy
Good spot to spend the night before catching the tunnel in the morning. Ground is pretty bumpy and sandy particularly in the centre but ok round the edge. Some jokers might beep as they drive past in the night, but the view and surroundings are beautiful.
Peaceful night here. Beeping car at 5:40 but I was getting up at 6am anyway.
We stopped here after arriving on a late Eurotunnel from france. It's ok at night but early hrs of the morning a few cars (5 or 6) were beeping and I can only guess that was done on purpose to wake the campers up. We won't be staying here again.
Lieu très calme en bordure de canal. Il faut impérativement que le véhicule fasse moins de 2 m (un california beach passe). La police passe faire un petit tour le soir pour vérifier qu’il n’y a pas de nuisance et les locaux promenant leurs chiens sont très agréables. Le lieu est payant si l’on reste en journée mais aucun souci pour la nuit après confirmation par la personne du parcmètre
Great little spot for a stop over for the tunnel. There is some passing traffic but nothing that bothered us would stay again
Mooie plek om vanuit de eurotunnel verder te reizen naar bestemming. Je hoort wel de auto’s maar voor ons niet hinderlijk. Mooi uitzicht. Afvalbakken aanwezig en voor de hond een uitlaatklep
Nice free stop before getting the euro tunnel. It’s on a fast bend so we parked as far of the road as we could. Short walks. Very uneven grounds. Nice views and only 2 min from there motor way
Heel mooi uitzicht!! Wat verkeer, maar rustig tijdens de nacht. Locals komen hier bij zonsondergang van het landschap genieten.
Stayed here last Friday night so we could get up for a early crossing. Didn’t sleep much as there was lots of cars coming and going playing loud music.
Stayed here for a night after couldn’t get into pub stop over at Folkestone. It was peaceful, one other van. Lots of space. Some kid racers hanging around with their tunes but they left around midnight. Road was quiet overnight until about 7. Beautiful views.
OK for one night before taking the chunnel to France in the morning. Bit of a narrow winding road to get here from the M20. The view is probably lovely but we arrived in the dark and awoke to thick fog, so no idea what the view is actually like! Very quiet during the night and we slept well.
stayed here last night as they have now put no motorhome signs up at the sports club in Folkestone. very pot holed, wet and muddy but a good alternative for tunnel this morning.
perfect for an overnight stop before the tunnel crossing. only saw it in the dark, was easy to find, the surface is pretty uneven so go easy.
Parking basique a raz la route, donc bruyant. j'avais la flemme,mais j'aurais dû faire les 15 miles de plus pour aller sur l'aire de Canterbury 4G quasiment inexistante
Gut für eine Nacht kurz nach oder vor der Fähre.
Great stop over pre early Eurotunnel. Perfect if you have a dog.
Great little stop before the tunnel
noisy road but great place for the night before ferry or euro tunnel
Verkehr bis ca. 0:30 (Freitag auf Samstag). Sehr gut besucht, auch bei Locals beliebt. Müll liegt rum - obwohl es 2 Mülleimer gibt!! - und es riecht leicht nach Öl. 3 Sterne nur, weil die Aussicht am Morgen super ist und der Eurotunnel nur 8 Minuten entfernt liegt.
Noche muy tranquila. Muy recomendable. Por la mañana carretera muy transitada y ruidosa. Para una Noche perfecto
Very nice place for a short night after our Eurottunnel transfer early in the moening. Parking only. No toilets but a clean place with a very nice view.
Perfect for what we needed. Quick overnight stop before an early morning Eurotunnel crossing (11 mins to tunnel) Flat, plenty of space (with two other vans there) a bit noisy with passing traffic, but not too bad. Nice morning view! And there was 4G on Vodafone for last minute travel panic! **Please let's be a bit more respectful with toilet habits! it's not fair on local people**
Good for up to 4 (maybe 5) motorhome, can be busy if with people waiting for tunnel crossings
Used this as a stop before catching the Chunnel early am. Perfect for what we needed -11 mins drive to the tunnel. It’s clean, flattish and the road noise was manageable. 5 other vans overnight.
Really good spot for the eurotunnel but wouldn’t stay for any other reason. A few smaller trucker vans were here too.
Good location to the Eurotunnel, but noisy with traffic and boy racer meets! Ideal for a quick stop.
Struggled to find it in the dark. Youngsters showed up in a convoy of 4x4s. Also cars passing most hours through the night. It is close to the tunnel though
Perfect for a stop before getting the tunnel in the morning, passing traffic is loud from 6am and cars passing on the road through the night but nothing a pair of earplugs won't solve. Not a toilet, don't leave rubbish or toilet paper
Great stop close to tunnel. Second time of using. Good for dogs. Quiet at night BUT commuter traffic in the morning.
Nice views, a good stop before the tunnel early morning. A few cars but quiet later. Right next to the road so not that secluded. For a busy area in England this is a good spot! Keep it clean, bins provided.
Just done the night, few people using carpark in evening but quite after 10pm. Next to road so some noise from cars this morning Lovely views 5 miles from euro tunnel Good for an overnight stop
Nice place to stay, next to road but it wasn’t too busy.
Perfect location for an overnight stop before a early tunnel ride!
We used this as a stopover before catching an early morning Shuttle to Calais. We arrived late and left early but it was an ideal location, just 15 mins from the terminal
VERY close to very busy road. Maybe the night is okay but the daytime sure isn't. Not a good spot to rest due to loud traffic and constant coming and going of vehicles. But hey, this being England this is a high quality spot here..
Road a little bit noisy early in the morning! At 01:00 am young people making noise with their tunning car ! Green and great views ! Very near to eurotunel !
Great little spot to stop for an early train crossing. Reasonably quiet, green space to walk the dog and great views. Very windy when we were there but with only 15 minute drive to the terminal it’s ideal.
Noisy as hell until 7pm, then starts again at 6 am. Also used by boy racer crowd for midnight meets. All outside their cars smoking and drinking, then in morning you find all their rubbish just left.
Handy place to stop after getting off a ferry into Dover, otherwise not much going for it unless you enjoy the sound of morning rush hour traffic flying past. A shame as the view is great. It might make a good lunch stop though as traffic should be quieter then.
Stayed here for a night before heading for the tunnel it’s ok no problems quiet at night and noisy and busy in the morning but at least you get a sleep.
Pratique rien de plus
The first time we stayed here before catching the ferry we had no problem, lovely views etc. Last night though we had our side window smashed by a glass bottle while we slept. Be really careful here.
Route très très très passante, entre les camions, tracteurs, voitures et motos, la nuit n'est pas très agréable.
Nuit calme à partir de 22h, très passant et bruyant. Mais c'est mieux qu'un camping.
Great overnight for the tunnel, road a bit noisy.
Pratique quand on arrive du tunnel le soir
