Bleanbees

Tillys EcoHut at BleanBees is clean and well-appointed. The photos show you exactly what you should expect. The bed is comfortable, warm, and cosy. Were an older couple (59 and 63) and were not skinny minis but we were very comfortable (a tall person >180 cm might find the bed a bit short). I slept really well even through a big storm The EcoHut rocks a little bit in high wind but I felt perfectly safe. Consider bringing a fully charged power pack with you for any devices that you want to keep charged. The wood burner is pure heaven if you like a fire. The hut warms quickly and stays cosy. The wool insulation throughout the EcoHut seems a really effective solution. The outdoor shower is easy to use and provides lovely hot water with good water pressure. I stayed at BleanBees on some cold, stormy, rainy days but still found the outdoor shower charming and easy to use. The compost loos are similarly well designed, easy to use, and not at all smelly. My visit was during some of the worst weather conditions (high wind, heavy rain, cold, and dark). To some, the situation would have been singularly uninviting, but my experience was warm comfort, gentle solitude, and beautiful (if wet) country walks in Blean Wood. If you need to get away from everything, visit Tillys wonderful EcoHut at BleanBees mid-week in the worst possible weather. If youre lucky, youll be the only one on the site. (I was!) Tillys EcoHut is charming, quiet, and beautiful. Recommended.

We had a wonderful two nights at the shepherds hut! Everything was clean, fresh and we had everything we needed. The whole set up was so well thought out. We are not experienced campers at all and this was an amazing experience for my two boys (aged 4 and 2). The wood burner kept the hut nice and warm, and we loved sitting out by the fire pit in the dark! We enjoyed a day trip to Whitstable nearby and Canterbury too! And a huge thank you to our host Tilly who returned my sons forgotten - but very precious - soft toy to us!! Thank you for a wonderful weekend!

We had such a wonderful time (on our FOURTH visit!!). The site was as glorious as always and Tilly went above and beyond to work through howling gales to get things ready and perfect for us. The new eco-shower block is a brilliant addition too. Thank you and heres to our fifth visit
