Coldblow Farm, Maidstone, Kent

Coldblow Farm Thurnham Maidstone Kent is believed to have been named during Saxon times. Our accommodation is situated 600 feet above sea level on top of the North Downs in Kent in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The views from local footpaths and bridleways are stunning. The farm today has 32 acres including nine acres of ancient woodland, which is graded as Special Nature Conservation Value.

The long distance trail, The North Downs Way, runs along the southern boundary of the farm and the Pilgrims Way is just a short distance away. The farm is in a lovely area of countryside with an excellent network of footpaths. For horseriders there is very good hacking on public bridlepaths, byways and toll rides. Even the country lanes are relatively quiet! For carriage drivers the local roads are driveable with care although there are some steep hills so passengers may have to dismount.

The animals on the farm are a small flock of sheep and we specialise in breeding a few Black Welsh Mountain Sheep, not rare but a minority breed. We also have free range chickens so your dogs must be kept on leads at all times.

At one end of our Sheep Field is a Camping Paddock. We can take up to 5 Caravans for Camping & Caravan Club Members and any number of Tents. There are electric hook-ups to the Paddock. Open fires are not allowed but safe Bar-B-Ques can be used by your tent or caravan. There is a water tap in the Paddock.

A short walk up a path from the Camping Paddock leads to the washing facilities for Campers: two toilets, three showers and washing up room with a vanity basin. Shower on a 3 x 20p. Coin meter. In winter we can provide a small flat hard standing area with electric hook up.
