Right from the moment we arrived we were made to feel very welcome – the wardens were friendly all weekend. Some C&CC sites insist on you showing your card before they will check you in, but this place was very reasonable. The wardens were extremely friendly and we were shown to our pitch. We were staying with friends and they were very happy for them to put their caravan sideways on so we could share a communal area.
The site is kept spotless with lovely lawns and a bright gravel track which makes for a great boules pitch. We were on the ‘top’ field by the road and had sun until sunset. The only downside of this part of the site is the road noise which is annoying, but we had read reviews before coming here so knew what to expect. There is a small play area for children which is like a bit of an assault course and proved very popular with our friends’ son.
The toilet block is amazing for a campsite. It’s spotlessly clean, looks brand new and tiled to a very high standard. There is also a small shop on site selling the essentials like coffee, milk, bread etc. Fish and chips can be delivered to your caravan on a Saturday evening at 6. 30pm and there is free WiFi – but don’t expect much from it as it is extremely slow like most campsite connections where lots of people are sharing a small bandwidth.
The location is in beautiful countryside with some fantastic country roads for cylcing along. The cycle ride to the Cock Inn is just 20 mins with children and this pub is well worth a visit, as is the pub that is only a 5 minute walk from the site and serves cracking food.
We really liked this site and would come again if we are in this area, although we would prefer to be away from the road.

The owners have put a lot into making this site a nice place to stay & they deserve praise for that. The facilities are first class. There are, however, two major problems, both noise related. First the very loud traffic noise, which starts at 5am & goes on until well after dark. Second, the frequent explosions from nearby gas gun bird scarers in the fields surrounding the site. They started at 6am & finished exploding at dusk, making it impossible to sleep once they started. Despite my high scores for the site facilities, I have to give it a low overall score because of the noise problems. I feel really sorry for the owners as there is little they can do about both problems but we won't be going back to this site.

Expecting snow overnight we rang to see if we could rush up to Polstead from Kent on that evening, approx 2 hours drive. The wardens were most helpful and agreed there was space. We arrived about 8pm, yes it was dark and they even offered us a choice and then they expertly guided us on to a pitch which suited our foreign caravan(door on wrong side).
Excellent washing up area, also heated.
Lovely clean site, heated shower and toilet block.
Nice disused road for dog walking out of rear of site.
Water at end of pitch, central waste disposal, gas available on site and gravel walkways.
Will revisit this site in Summer.

Pleasant, very rural site with rather small pitches surrounded by shrubs and plantings which make it very attractive although there are no views and all the pitches on the caravan field at the front overlook the wooden faced toilet block. The toilet block itself was very clean. The owners are very helpful and welcoming and there is free WIFI in return for a donation in the plantings box. There is very easy road access although that does gives some road noise. There is an excellent pub within easy walking distance that does a very good carvery as well as a full pub menu. Within easy reach are several pretty Suffolk villages, Lavenham, Kersey, Long Melford with its Kentwell Hall and Melford Hall to visit, and it is near to Constable country. Ipswich with a good Park and Ride is 15 miles away.

This was our second visit to this really really good site - the wardens are one of the best wardens we have come across nothing is too much trouble, the site is well kept loo's are lovely - warm clean hot showers and have never had to wait.
In the surrounding area there is too much to do - hadleigh shortish river walk very nice and the railway walk is good too, nothing is too far, also at lavenham the walk along to long melford along the old railway is good, sudbury good walk and a nice waitrose there. isnt a bad word to say about this site, if was being really picky the chickens in the small holding next door woke us up a couple of mornings, but that was a good thing as lovely sunny mornings sitting out planning our day ahead! just a shame the holiday had to end

Just back from first visit to this site, could not fault it shower block superb (if they could control the weather would be be caravanners dream} wardens were so friendly nothing too much trouble, unfortunately weather was against us so came home day early, but certainly a must for another visit. Plenty of information on surrounding area from reception and wardens well knowledgeable on local area, close to sudbury and Ipswich, many local attractions.
