Morning.
I make a trip to kent once a month for a night and have been cycling out to sturry to hang my hammock (i can't stand hotels/hostels and the likes). Sturry is a nice place, however the ride there from canterbury station after a several hour train journey is a bit much at times, especially when i factor the risk of possibly being moved on.
I am looking for somewhere where i can just keep myself to myself, obviously i will need trees, a stream or water source to filter water from would be ideal. I am a very low impact camper, being in a hammock i also don't disturb the ground. I would prefer somewhere closer than sturry, private, nice to view and with permission so i can rely on a site. I expect to need to compromise on something ofc.
If you have a possible solution or suggestion for where i can stay on a monthly basis, either with permission or discreetly, i would be keen to hear from you. I do not know the area very well at all. Other than sturry i have been eye balling sites near the military training area, although i am concerned that it is probably asking for trouble a local did say that this area was often used. I notice there are also some woods heading west out of canterbury but obviously i don't know if these are strictly private or heavily walked etc.
Any help or suggestions appreciated.
