  • Adults-only site on 12 acres of peaceful Suffolk farmland
  • Woodbridge 10 minutes' drive; 20 minutes to Ipswich or Sutton Hoo
  • Dogs welcome; pubs and River Deben beach within walking distance
With easy access from the A12 and A14, plus 12 acres of peaceful natural land to its name, Low Farm Campsite is an excellent spot for an easy escape in a splendid Suffolk setting. This lovely location is part of the Suffolk & Essex Coast & Heaths National Landscape, and the owners of the site are doing their bit to preserve the local landscapes by returning their farmland to nature. As part of that approach, the guest areas have been designed to sit nicely in the natural setting, with plenty of space so that you’ll never feel crammed in even if the place is full. The idea here is to create peaceful, simple experiences, and with that in mind the owners have set the place up as an adults-only site with just the essential facilities – guests have access to toilets, showers, a washing-up area and a chemical disposal point. Dogs are welcome as long as they’re kept on a leash on site – the area’s footpaths and open spaces mean you shouldn’t struggle to find a place for a good walk (whether you’ve got a dog or not). You’re allowed to set up a barbecue here if you’d like to do some outdoor cookery, but there are also a couple of pubs within walking distance serving up good food for those times when you don’t feel like it. Also within easy walking distance is a river beach on the River Deben, with boat trips available. Woodbridge (10 minutes’ drive) and Ipswich (20 minutes) are also close by for shops and places to eat.

What customers say

Awesome peaceful adult-only site. Spacious, private spots & spotless facilities. Loved the nature, walks to pubs/river, and wild camping. Tiny notes on showers/WiFi but most want to return. Owners are legends.

Wildlife unpowered grass site

Liked Gorgeous wildlife pitch. Loved the space and little nooks. Nice to be able to pick where to pitch which have to a very private stay with lovely views. The campsite was very quiet which was nice and despite being wild the area was accessible and maintained.
Liked the automatic check in and no need to go to reception
Loved it!

Disliked Nothing!

Liked Really nice site with easy access for a motorhome. It was run by a nice couple who were very helpful with lending us a water lead. Good for dogs. Water was close to electric which was also good. Lots of pitches for tents and motorhomes.

Also liked the security with electric gates and was clean and tidy.

The river Debden walk and Maybush pub was also excellent. Dogs loved the river beach and river!

Disliked Very bad was having no phone signal on this site - so could not use our phones or book our next site. The camp site has even on 3G. The site has no WiFi at present but they maybe installing in the future so there was no backup. Having no signal was an issue for us as we were trying to make some business arrangements. Campers need at least one or other.

Only 2 showers so you could have quite a wait when site is fuller. We showered early so were fine. Site very clean which matches the standards of camping and caravanninh club but a bigger site.

Rebecca B.

Wildlife unpowered grass site

Liked Truly wonderful site, found a lovely secluded spot between bushes full of berries and trees teeming with acorns. Had my breakfast with a robin and dinner with butterflies. Lovely facilities, very hot showers and washing up (at the right height!) is under cover for the lovely British weather. Site was clean, quiet and everyone was respectful of each other’s space. As a solo camper I felt safe and serene.
Great bonus is it being child free! No noisy squeals while you’re reading your book, no kids running around the facilities and no teens showing off in their saxo (am I showing my age now?)
Really good location, 15 mins away from Felixstowe- great sea for swimming in! 25 mins away from Alton Water for paddle boarding and feeding highland cows.
Jimmy’s farm is not far.. I nipped past for some bacon from the farm shop! Delish.
No wifi but reception was strong, 4G sometimes dropped or was slow at times (on TalkMobile)

Local attractions

Works by Constable and Gainsborough are among the highlights of the art collection at the 16th-century Christchurch Mansion, just north of the town centre in Ipswich (20 minutes' drive). Restaurants and bars line the redeveloped Ipswich Waterfront, where it’s also possible to go on boat trips along the River Orwell. Discovered in 1939, the burial ground at National Trust - Sutton Hoo (20 minutes) yielded an Anglo-Saxon warrior’s boat grave laden with precious artefacts, from an ornate helmet to intricate gold jewellery and gemstones. Most of the treasure is now in London’s British Museum, but there are replicas here, plus a tower to survey the burial ground from above. Fancy a little water-based action? Head to Alton Water Sports Centre (25 minutes), where you can have a go at paddleboarding, hire a canoe to explore this large reservoir, or bounce and slide on the inflatables at the water park. Alton Water also has a couple of fishing spots, bird hides and viewpoints.
