Your hosts and founders of Welsummer Camping met way back, on a campsite in the South of France where they lived for 11 years before the move to Kent. They dream of opening a 2nd Welsummer in Normandy, one day…
When the folks, Marj and Keith, chose this land, they must have known how precious it was going to be to us all. They have mastered the Kitchen Garden, tamed Fruit Trees, and are Guardians of the 5 healthy beehives.
This is Laura and her sister Juanita many years ago when they camped in the woods as a family spending every holiday possible here and made many wonderful memories, inspiring them to share this wonderful camping spot with future generations.
Elisa and Julien have grown up literally on the campsite. They have known it since the ages of 6 and 9, and now as adults they have informed a positive vision for the future of Welsummer, making key decisions and managing exciting new cabin builds.
