Camping near Royal Tunbridge Wells

We managed to get the whole family camping last weekend (17th August - 21st August). Our four children plus their partners and all six grandchildren. Not all where their for the whole time. It was a great camp. We stayed at :-

ForgeWood Camping
Danegate
Nr Tunbridge Wells
Kent

web site - http://forgewoodcamping.co.uk/index.html

 A really lovely site that encouraged back to basics camping (ie campfires and little or no technology - did not stop our children using their smart phones!!)

 

On the Saturday some of the children walked to Frant. A really lovely village about 4 miles from the campsite. We met up at the pub for lunch.

 

 

 

 

Here are the six grandchildren (left to right Grace, Sam, Eloise, Gemma, Aiden and Haydn)

 

 

We walked to the famous 'Poohsticks Brigde' in Ashdown Forest and played pooh sticks

Winnie the Pooh's house near the bridge (allegedly :)

 

Here is the whole family (minus me) on the bridge.
