Overview

Camp next to iconic historic sites at Canterbury Camping and Caravanning Club Site.

 

  • Located on the outskirts of the historic city of Canterbury
  • Explore coastal towns Margate and Whitstable
  • Close proximity to Kent Downs National Landscape
  • A great stop-off campsite for travelling to France
  • Modern campsite with two amenity blocks
  • “Has a lovely feel of being in the country, lots of green space, trees and a little orchard as you arrive.” Maggie Shannon, 2024

 

Best for

History fanatics, heritage seekers, shopaholics, fine diners, beach lovers

 

Wander down narrow cobbled streets, explore the grounds of iconic cathedrals, and sample oysters freshly caught from the sea – it’s all possible from Canterbury Club Site. Situated on the outskirts of the city, the site gives you great access to Canterbury’s ancient streets and world-famous cathedral, as well as its abundant shopping and dining.

 

Country in the city

Despite being on the edge of a city, this campsite feels like it’s in the heart of the countryside, offering grass and hardstanding pitches for all unit types surrounded by pleasant greenery. There are good dog walking routes nearby, while the bus stop outside can take you not only to Canterbury but also to Whitstable on the coast – famous for its seafood and annual Oyster Festival.

 

Tradition on tap

Canterbury can easily occupy a few days, but after that, you could explore the other coastal gems in the region. Broadstairs is a quaint Victorian seaside town, while Margate offers a traditional British seaside experience with amusement parks such as Dreamland. Inland, the Kent Downs is a wonderful nature reserve that’s ideal for hiking, horse riding, wildlife spotting, or just finding your place in nature.

 

Don’t miss your chance to camp near one of England’s most historic cities. Book your pitch at Canterbury Club Site today.
