After a recent trip to Eastwell Manor near Ashford in Kent I'd recommend it to anyone.

A quick phone call, no landing fee and just book in at the desk, then you have the choice of two restaurants and a health spa called The Pavilion. There they have a very nice restaurant (reasonably priced) with a terrace overlooking rolling countryside. It is a regular haunt for many of my fellow self-fly-hirers.

The approach and departure is via the biggest field you'll ever see and a hop over a low fence to two marked helipads with a windsock. Just watch out for gliders as it is very close to Challock...
