What customers say
A peaceful, friendly campsite with roomy, private pitches, often nestled among trees. Facilities are clean and functional, though some find them basic. The owner gets great feedback for being helpful. Handy for the Suffolk coast. Expect some traffic noise and spotty Wi-Fi. Great value and a relaxing vibe.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















Great value for money and fab owner who was most helpful and caring.
Unpowered grass and earth site
Liked Jaik was very welcoming, informative and most of all extremely helpful when I had a concern about my pitch (not a problem with pitch itself but I was worried about not having enough light for solar panel). He bent over backwards to help me despite being extremely busy having lots of last minute bookings. Most appreciated Jaik…very good man.
Good location for accessing area highlights (by vehicle.. not sure about local walks, facilities etc as only stayed one night as travelling through).
Everything I needed in terms of ample toilets, showers, washing up and chemical disposal.
Fabulous value for money.
Disliked I didn’t dislike anything myself but if you’re a very fussy person you might not like the rustic-ness of site facilities. Yes, they are basic but all works and for the price paid I’d be hard pushed to find anything else with as many facilities that I personally needed.
Also did note other comments re. traffic noise from A12 but it was only slightly audible and didn’t disturb my sleep one iota.

Our favorite site to stop at
Unpowered grass and earth site
Liked We had pitch 20 for the night which was our first pitch last year when we found this gem of a campsite, it's the perfect spot to rest and still get to places like southwold, aldeburgh, thorpness and more while avoiding all the over packed campsites with no space.

Nice site. Friendly owners
Powered concrete slab site
Liked Jaik was a very friendly host. The site was nice and surrounded by greenery. Good pitches with water end electric. Skylink wifi was free and pretty fast and stable. Facilities basic but clean and services.

A nice, little quiet site. Lovely…
Powered grass and earth site
Liked A nice, little quiet site. Lovely wooded location, plenty of room between pitches. Met the owner Jaik on arrival who was very helpful and pleasant. Adequate showers and toilets dotted around. For the extremely reasonable price paid, it's a 10 out of 10 from us!

Good value for money
Powered grass and earth site
Liked Wooded areas and not being crowded in. Tents and camper vans and small caravans pitched in the trees area. Small toilet and shower blocks around the site. Electric and Wi~fi included.
Disliked Woodland area possibly restricted the wi-fi signal strength as it wasn’t strong.

Powered grass and earth site
Liked The position of our picture was really good. On the edge of the woods so lovely and shady as was rather hot weather. A short walk to the facilities. And pleasantly surprised by the kitchen area complete with fridge and microwave. We were just staying the one night to try out our new tent. And the site exceeded our expectations.
