Apple Acres is a peaceful adults only campsite, on the northern outskirts of Royal Tunbridge Wells. As the name suggests, it is set in an attractive apple orchard (apparently, visitors can help themselves to whatever fruit they want in season). There is also a wide open field with expansive views over the Kent countryside.
I believe there are only ten caravan and motorhome pitches, all with hard standing and electric hook-up available. Additionally, tent campers can pitch up on the field. Apple Acres is located well away from the main road, and the only sounds we heard were the birds, and a very occasional distant tooting of a train. It is a good spot for observing wildlife and also the night sky.
The showers were unavailable because of Covid-19 restrictions (we were advised at the time of booking) but a single WC and a single wash basin were available in each of the ladies and gents sections of the facilities block. The facilities generally are old but perfectly functional. It is worth noting, there is a severe speed bump close to the site access gate when approaching the campsite from the access lane.

Beautiful site and very quiet. Shower block facilities could be improved but perfectly usable. Will return.

A small adult only site just a mile from tonbridge 4 miles from tunbridge wells. The walk is along some super busy roads. We managed to find a route along the river into tonbridge which was nice but turned into an 8 mile job. Bus service from the end of the drive to both places. The site is adult only accommodating caravans motorhomes and tents. It’s not particularly well kept the pitches could be tended better. The shower block is dated but functional and clean. The shower door didn’t shut so the floor was flooded and slippery but not really an issue. A short walk to a recommended pub but the food was just awful and expensive.

Lovely site with large pitches, easy to find and a very friendly welcome on arrival. Great location for sightseeing too, Tonbridge and it's fascinating castle only are a few minutes drive away as is Royal Tunbridge Wells, the older area of Pantiles is well worth a visit.
