Poppinghole Lane, TN32, Robertsbridge
Been here?
This small parking area lies beside a quiet forest road at the edge of woodland, with a nearby walking route. It is slightly to noticeably sloping, and the area is smaller than photographs suggest. The narrow approach is closed to trucks, and forestry work is taking place nearby. Daytime road traffic can be heard, but nights are generally quiet and phone signal is limited.

Parking area much smaller than in the photo for a van and slightly sloping. Another possible spot, but more sloped. Starting point for a walk. During the day, traffic can be heard on a road, but the night is quiet.Translating
Quiet night, nice dog walk if a little muddy (not surprisingly as it is January and we have had a lot of rain). Signal was fine with EE. Plenty of room but not level. Managed to get from o/s wheel on bank and level Left to Right and only a bit nose down. Forestry work didn’t cause any issue parking here.
Wasn't very level and forestry workers are working in the area. But excellent for a one-night stop on our travels. It was quiet and we had a peaceful night.Translating
Not level and currently undergoing forestry work. very small narrow road to approach. Quite remote. Within 15 minutes of arriving there just at nightfall a car pulled up within 2metres of the van. We heard the car door open and 2 men arguing but couldn't make out what was being said over the sound of the max fan. A few minutes later they drove off. We packed up and left as didn't feel safe.
Currently filled with felled trees; impossible to park anywhere.
lovely little stop, right on the edge of a huge woodland area, plenty of space space for a larger van, but only room for a couple, there was already a smaller van there when we arrived bit there was enough room for both of us, very quiet overnight. perfect for dog walk in the morning. does slope a bit, but not enough to cause a problem.
The spot would be amazing even if it's not level, but unfortunately some locals have been dumping trash in a pile that is now bigger than a van.. so enraging!..
Not level! If you must be level then this may not be for you. Pictures make the area look bigger than it actually is. The further back from the road the more it slopes. Quiet location off a small country road with few cars. Not fully covered by trees so some solar. 2 bar signal strength on Vodafone 4G and Three. Good for forest walk. Couple of horse riders but otherwise very quiet and peaceful.
used as a 1 night stop over. arrived around 9pm. no one else about . quite, clean and on the edge of the woods. nice walk with dog. got a good night's sleep and cooked breakfast and headed off . fiat doblo micro camper seemed perfect for this stop over .
Great spot. Quiet road, a little bit of signal, and nice walks and views. Not too far from civilisation either which is good for the next day!
Really very sloping, but we were the only ones there and could choose the most level spot. Quite a bit of rubbish had been dumped, bags and old tyres. But the forest is right next door and it is very quiet. Mobile signal is not very good but okay.Translating
Spend a night there on our way to Dover, slighly over 1 hour drive to ferry terminal. PROS: very quiet, nice drive there CONS: sloped, poor signal coverage, at the time being littered (some local used it to dump lld tyres and several plastic scacks of whatever)
