Suffolk Ram shepherd's hut
Liked: We loved the beautiful Tranquil surroundings, and the privacy our Suffolk ram shepherds hut afforded us, whist we were in the hot tub one evening it seemed like it was just the two of us and nature. I would say the Suffolk ram was positively luxurious, it was so clean and comfortable, we'd definitely go back again.

Primitive grass tent campsite (adults only)
Liked: Spotlessly clean. Well laid out pitches. Quiet. Toilets and showers immaculate and liked that there are toilets in the shower rooms. Hairdryers also. There is a utility room with a fridge and separate freezer. Ther is a cafe onsite at the weekends . Although we didn't use this the smells outside were certainly making my mouth water! This is a beautiful site. We were in a tent but the range of accommodation for the site is amazing and looked very luxurious.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike.

Powered grass campsite (sloping, adults only)
Liked: What a great discovery! Superb site... sumptuous showers and toilets. Good cafe... quiet... fascinating countryside all around. Fun, friendly hosts. Easy drives to Woodbridge, Sutton Hoo, Orford, and the Suffolk Punch Horse Trust. And to cap it all the famous 'unpollarded' Staverton Thicks ancient oaks are right next door!
Disliked: You will never find it if you don't put 'q' on the end of the postcode! Some pitches do slope but not too much. Needs a greywater drain. Can't think of anything else to improve really.
