Kent Caravan Holiday Parks

Kent holidays are an amazing antidote to the hustle and bustle of life in the city. The county is known proudly as the Garden of England, despite its relative proximity to the capital. It’s awash with castles and stately homes, with Hever, Leeds and Dover a trio that you can easily tie in with a Kent caravan holiday.

Haven Kent Coast is right at the top of the tree when it comes to Kent holiday parks. Close enough for a quick getaway from London, it’s also conveniently located for a visit to the historic cathedral cities of Rochester and Canterbury. Fancy bringing your dog?

Things to do in Kent

If you're looking for something cosmopolitan, Faversham, Margate and Whitstable are getting trendier every day – think contemporary galleries mingling with pop-up restaurants and vintage amusement parks. If you're not ready to hang with the hipsters, the harbours and marinas of Ramsgate offer a more traditional take on what a coastal town's all about. And what visit to Kent could be complete without seeing the white cliffs of Dover? If you want a day trip to thrill the little ones during your stay, try Howletts or Port Lympne wild animal park home to elephants, gorillas, monkeys, tigers and leopards.

Frequently asked questions

What should I know about Kent?

Known as the ‘Garden of England’, Kent is awash with picturesque countryside, quiet country lanes and a quaint coastline that’s in contrast to its relatively large population of over 1.5 million people.

Kent is home to one of only three ‘Royal’ towns in the UK. Royal Tunbridge Wells has enjoyed its title since 1909 and is a great day out from our holiday park at Kent Coast.

Kent is a massive strawberry supplier, with loads of places to go picking throughout the season. These strawberries help supply one half of the famous strawberries and cream combination that’s an iconic part of the Wimbledon tennis tournament.

Why is Kent a great holiday destination?

As the English county in closest proximity to Europe, Kent is home to scores of historic sites that bring to life its strategic importance in more turbulent times. These include castles, battlefields and coastal lookouts.
