Reviewer: Stacey 1 review from this member

 Excellent facilities, great location.

Well stocked and well priced shop on site. Staff very friendly.

Facilities very clean and easily accessible.

Pet friendly, but dogs must be on a lead at all times, which can be a tad challenging.

Reviewer: Dianas 1 review from this member

 Nice small site in Wickham Market, interesting footpath into town centre. Site has 2 large ponds ( one for fishing) and site bordered by River Deben.

Lots of lovely trees around the site, some apple trees in blossom when we were there. Some of site quite sloped but large flat field bordered by river for tents and non electric pitches.

Site quite near to interesting Suffolk historical sites and coastline. Sutton Hoo, Framlingham castle, Orford castle and Orford coastline all within about 10 miles.

Didn’t try showers (although looked ok) but pretty cold mornings, and unheated shower block deterred us when we were there. Very useful kitchen area available for campers, large table, 3 or more microwaves, washing up sinks, fridge/freezer +

Wardens at site friendly and helpful.

 Great site, welcome, facilities etc. Have camped here many times. Lovely and at quiet at beginning of season.

Cooked all the time on open fire.

Lovely walk across fields to large co-op and excellent butchers and fish and chips shop in W-M.


Loads of options for local/coastal walks & trips.

Very relaxed camp site. Would highly recommend.

Reviewer: Algrim 1 review from this member

 We booked The Orchard for our first family camping trip with our 6 and 9 year old.

The site was clean and well laid out, being able to chose where you wanted to pitch up was great giving us the option to have shade due to the wide amount of trees around the site.

The facilities were all clean and easy to use, toilets had ample lop roll and hand soap. Showers were nice and warm and again clean. We used the fridge and freezers to store food items and cool blocks.

We really enjoyed being able to have a camp fire next to our tent. The children's activity sheets were also very good. You could buy all basic items at the site shop and the local village has a coop and primer shop.

Reviewer: Silvah 1 review from this member

 Friendly and approachable staff on site. Available from 8 am to 10 pm daily for any questions. The on-site shop was stocked well for adult and child needs.

Kitchen facilities very good, showers were good. The only drawback was the toilets, the cubicle could be cleaned more regularly and the soup replenished daily.

Great for large groups, a bit busy for one family unit.

Reviewer: Gholme 1 review from this member

 Great site and really pretty place. Everything you needed was there and despite the weather we all had a great time.

The road can be a little noisy but not enough to really bother us.

Everyone was welcoming and friendly and we were left to just enjoy our weekend and ask if we needed anything.

Very relaxed site

Reviewer: HardCoreCampers16 2 reviews from this member

 A very relaxed campsite. Good range of goods in the camp shop, very nice wine!

Plenty of logs for the fire pit and available at all hours pretty much.

Even though shop was closed, Warden very happy to open it up when you needed something.

Plenty of space to spread out our group. Short walk through a field to the town.

Reviewer: Mikese 1 review from this member

 Very nice site. No set pitches. Go where you like. As the name says, it’s more like an Orchard than a campsite.

People there are really helpful and friendly. For example:

I left my cycle helmet at home and they went online and found the nearest shop. (I’d not asked them to do anything).

Definitely go again as it’s so much better than the large regimented sites with tiny pitches.

P. S. Pay for only the electricity you use. We have fridge, kettle, lighting, air pumps and gadget charging. Cost under £2. 00 for 3 nights.

Reviewer: Lynne2485 1 review from this member

 This site is so relaxed. The staff are really helpful. We love it. As the owner says “no silly rules “.

You can hear the A12 particularly if the wind is in the wrong direction but not too intrusive.

Small shop on site, supermarket within a short walk.

There is a pond and a river on the site so if you have small children you need to take care.

However there are wide open spaces for games and it is a short drive to the beach.

Have visited twice already this season and will return soon!

 From the moment you arrive and are greeted by the warden you know you’ve arrived at a magical place.

The site is friendly and inviting.

It has all the facilities you require fabulous showers, kitchen and toilets which are very clean.

The pitches are varied and spacious.

Definitely worth a return visit.

Reviewer: Jamesr 1 review from this member

 Friendly and clean site, With a comfortable feel to it.

Close enough to local town for supplies and a cheat night for dinner.

Only negative I can find is that the A12 can be heard in the background.
