Stay: Aug 2011
" - We spent 5 days at "Little Switzerland" in August and another 3 days after our 2 1/2 week tour of England. The entrance to the site is only about 100m above the entrance to the "Camping & Caravanning Club Site Folkestone" campsite, so you have to be careful which site you go to. The site has a wonderful view of the sea and the chalk cliffs. It is relatively small and therefore quite quiet - only on a Bank Holiday weekend was it fully booked and correspondingly noisy. There are larger and smaller pitches, but we were always able to set up our rather large trailer tent (5 x 7m) and park the car next to it. There is 230V/10A electricity, but water is only available at a few taps. Most visitors are only on site for one night and want to get on the ferry (or have just come from there). Opinions differ on the sanitary facilities. I awarded 3 stars because the toilets were always clean (they are cleaned several times a day) and toilet paper and hand washing soap were always replenished. - However, the installations are still from the times of the 2nd World War (according to the operator) and accordingly "rustic". Some others might only have given it 1-2 stars. But we really liked the simple charm of the place and its facilities, plus the stunning scenery and tranquillity, just great :) We paid 25 pounds (2 adults, 2 children) and found it OK. The next time we visit England, we will definitely come back to Little Switzerland (hence my awarding of 4 stars, according to the features it might only have deserved 2 stars).
