 Briefly v. Free site, quite the opposite to Caravan & Motor Home club. My kids, aged 11 and 15, loved the freedom of running around playing manhunt late at night. Making new friends etc.
The shop was well stocked and the staff couldn’t do enough for us! However the toilets and showers were disgusting, the public toilets in Orford Car park were 10x better!
Also there was no equipment to clean the shower floors (ie foam floor squeegee thingymebob). That said most British People don’t seem to understand how to use them (well the didn’t the campsites we visited this year anyway).
Finally there was a lot of deep water signs and my partner and I were surprised at the lack of lifebouys.

It was a lovely stay, the children had fun and made new friends.
The adults had a great time playing games.
The toilets and showers were clean, it was really handy that we could wash and dry our clothes as the children began to run out

Great site for a group of 5 families that wanted to pitch all our tents together in one area.
Toilet and shower blocks clean.
Very helpful couple that run this site, Alan can tell you all the local walking routes. Fully stocked on site shop.
Camp fires allowed, kids enjoyed jumping in the river and generally a fun time had by all.
We will return.

We had a very enjoyable stay. The site was lovely, quite peaceful and the clientele extremely helpful.
We have an American RV and we’re also towing a race car on a separate trailer so we didn’t exactly fit well on any pitch.
They made us very welcome letting us expand slightly to accommodate our overall size.
I would highly recommend this site particularly if you want a tranquil site to catch your breath.
We have booked to return in the middle of August and early October.

Brilliant campsite, great grounds, lovely shop and friendly staff - one thing to be aware of there is traffic noise from the A12. I was glad I took my headphones!
Also, families with young children beware there is lots of open water, had my children been younger this would have worried me.

The campsite is lovely with facilities that are kept mostly clean (busy site when we were there so expected muddy, unflushed, toilet paper strewn toilets). The showers are ok if you get in early enough for hot water, but nothing to shout about.
There’s a small play area for kids & a rope hanging over the river at the bottom of the site for kids to jump in (adult supervision definitely required). There’s also a ‘glow night’ when kids can get some free glow sticks to run around with, also available to purchase from the well stocked shop.
Good location for Framingham castle (short drive) and the coast.
In terms of being Covid safe - definite NO! Washing facilities were closed as per guidelines but the owners allowed guests to wash & brush their teeth in the washing up facilities which is even more unhygienic than opening the washing facilities. When we brought this to the owners attention the answer was ‘what do you expect us to do about it?’ So really not impressed with their attitude.
Shame because the campsite itself is a lovely location.

We’ve just stayed at the orchard campsite. We had a fantastic relaxing weekend & shall be booking a another weekend for this year as we enjoyed it so much.
We enjoyed that there’s a bit of something for us. Fishing, going in the lake.
The kids enjoyed the swings by the shop, would be even better if they had a slide with the swings or few more bits for them to play on but all in all we enjoyed it a lot!.

Lovely friendly and welcoming campsite.
Excellent and safe especially for children.
Clean facilities. Nice spaced out pitches.
We liked the idea of the dips for the wood burning.

Camp site was nice. We pitched up next to the river, tyre swing for the children. Lots of groups with children, really sweet place.
Only problem was noise levels late into the evening. We only stayed 1 out of the 2 nights booked because of loud bass music that you can feel in your chest on and off until after 1am. Which with a young child ruined the trip.
