Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (woodland)

Liked Beautifully laid out pitches in separate spaces surrounded by firs and blackberries with a tap and fire pit each. Simple and good toilets and shower. Lovely walk to river. Tranquil and peaceful.

Fox Den shepherd's hut

Liked We stayed in the Fox Den which was very clean and comfortable and the decoration is very cute and had all the kitchen accessories we needed.
Can get hot when weather is good but that didn't matter too much as we sat outside mostly enjoying the view.
Site itself was very clean and quiet.
Surrounding area was beautiful. Would love to come back in winter.

Disliked Not much close by for older kids, more of a young family or couples destination.

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (woodland)

Liked The individual pitches, surrounding environment and access to the estuary is amazing. Feels really isolated. A really special place. Definitely wish to return. Toilets and shower very clean.

Disliked The bins could be labelled better so you know what recycling goes in which bin.

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (woodland)

Liked Did a search for sites that catered for those wanting a nearly wild camp experience and pitchup linked Nether Hall Farm so booked a night to try out my Hilleberg unna for the first time as the site was fairly local.
Arrival, I arrived at Nether Hall Farm not knowing what to expect as it was school summer holidays but was pleasantly surprised at how quiet it was, pitches 1 to 7 a based on firt come first served basis I took pitch 7 huge pitch for a 1 man tent but it was perfect plenty of space for family sized tents with its own water supply and fire pit. There are basic facilities in the form of two composting toilets on shower and somewhere to wash your dishes pots and pans as well as bins for your rubbish and recycling. Logs and kindling are available on an honesty box type of affair albeit no cash but bank transfer prices £10 for a bag of logs £5 for kindling similar price to most other sites offering the same I used 2 bags of logs and 1 bag of kindling for my over nighters.in all I throughly recommend Nether Hall Farm they also offer a shepherd's which looks real nice with a huge pitch and great views.so would I go again yes I most certainly would it's lovely and quiet you can also access a private beach a short walk from you camping spot bonus. This is a working farm please respect this and abide by the rules I wouldn't want to see this site disappear it's great if you want something of this nature as apposed to big commercial site this is a little gem of a place

Local attractions

Alton Water Sports Centre is set in 400 acres of countryside, where you can wander walking and cycling tracks, go fishing and try out watersports on the reservoir. All equipment, as well as bikes, can be hired at the sports centre. Suffolk Ski Centre (both 15 minutes’ drive) also has some high-octane activities, from snowboarding to skiing on the dry ski slope. More gentle local pursuits might include visiting National Trust-owned attractions including Pin Mill (10 minutes), the setting for Arthur Ransome’s ‘Swallows and Amazons’ on the Orwell estuary, and Flatford Mill (half an hour) in Constable Country, an area with glorious trails for hiking and cycling alongside the river Stour. Spoil well-behaved kids with a day out among the rare-breed animals and reptiles at Jimmy’s Farm and Wildlife Park (20 minutes), where you can also set them up with experiences like anteater-feeding sessions. And if everybody’s keen to get down to the waterside, you can walk to Harkstead river beach directly from the campsite in 15 minutes – but remember to check the tide times.
