Five people have been taken to hospital after a caravan went up in flames.
Crews in four fire engines were called to Chegworth Road, Harrietsham, just after 11.30pm on Wednesday night and used hose reel jets to put out the blaze.
A man, a woman, a baby and two other children were outside on arrival, all suffering from smoke inhalation and some with burns.
Ambulance crews also attended and took the patients to hospital.
The cause of the fire is not yet known, but is believed to be accidental.
A South East Coast Ambulance Service spokesman said: "We were called just before 11.45pm by Kent Fire and Rescue Service to reports of a caravan fire on Chegworth Road.
"Ambulance crews were sent to the scene including the Hazardous Areas Response Team and we were joined by the air ambulance.
"Five patients including a man and a woman and three young patients were treated for injuries including smoke inhalation and burns.
"All were taken to the William Harvey Hospital in Ashford by road."
