The most authentic campsite I have stayed at. So well run, clean and eco-friendly (Also very pretty).
Lots of Interesting footpaths surround the campsite.
Great to see a working smallholding. Lovely play area, wood fired pizza from Pete, and close to The Sorrel Horse pub.
A great base for exploring the remote coastline at Shingle St, Bawdsey and further afield Orford.

Awesome campsite, relaxed and friendly,
Great for kids with a big park, loads of space, chickens running around and animals to see,
Woodland walk right off the campsite,
Lovely showers etc.
We loved the pizzas on site too and the lovely pub down the road.

Second visit here.
The facilities are regularly maintained and spotlessly clean.
A short drive to the beach, and other local attractions.
The site is relaxed and peaceful.
We rarely go back to the same place.
Will visit again!

Amazing campsite. James and Claire couldn’t be more helpful and friendly.
The facilities are immaculate.
The children loved the animals, especially stroking and feeding them on Claire’s tour.
The Blue Rabbit Cafe is lovely. Everything homegrown and freshly picked. Big park and local pub within walking distance.
We have been before and will be coming back again.
Thank you Shottisham Campsite ⛺️

Just returned from a fabulous few days, this is a lovely site, unspoiled,
Nice clean showers and toilets with the added benefit of fridges and freezers to use.
Having the fresh pizza on Fridays and the cafe at weekends was a welcome touch.
The site is really well positioned for exploring south Suffolk.

Good size pitch, with shade & sun. Well maintained & clean toilet/shower block with plenty of hot water.
Excellent location for discovering Deben vale, Sutton Hoo, Woodbridge.
The Sorrel Horse keeps it's beer well and also does food and can be reached from the campsite without walking on the road.
The on-site cafe is open at weekends but we were staying during the week so we can't comment.
Booking was straightforward and replies were prompt.
We couldn't access campsite wifi, but others could.

Lovely campsite set in beautiful surroundings. James the owner was friendly and welcoming.
Lots of room/space on the pitches.
Showers and toilets were kept spotlessly clean. Nice hot showers.
Campfires were allowed.
Lots of public footpaths around the site- perfect for dog walking.
Owners have a small holding with llamas, goats etc which children would love. We enjoyed local walks along the Suffolk coastal path at Shingle street.
Orford was a lovely place to visit that’s nearby.
We would stay here again, good value for money.

Site was amazing.
Quiet,
Great facilities,
Great location (close to Sutton Hoo).
Lovely to see all of the animals on site (the Alpacas were lovely and the pigs were hilarious).
Loved the environmental credentials of the site - solar power, collection of rainwater etc.
Great for dogs as close to some amazing dog walks. Just make sure your dog is tethered if they can’t resist the chase as the chickens love to see what you’re having for breakfast!

Our 4th visit here. Wonderful owners, very friendly and very helpful. Facilities 1st class, very clean
Amazing array of animals, the Blue Rabbit cafe offering meals, a lovely place to stay as a couple, freedom for children, chance to see animals in their environment.
Lots of walks nearby, Shingle Street, Aldeburgh and Bawdsey nearby.
We will be back.

Great site located in the tiny village of Shottisham, located closed to some great parts of the Suffolk Coast.
Nice clean facilities,
Very easy to access site and pitches

This was just the most wonderful weekend. Very well equipped campsite - didn't expect the fridge/freezer facility which was a bonus (especially in the hot weather).
Chickens wandering round the site added fun, and being able to eat the eggs from these 'very free range' animals was great.
It was lovely to be able to hire a firepit and buy firewood, too - and the cafe serving yummy coffee and cakes, and hiring out games was also a highlight.
It's located within walking distance of a few pubs (and the nearest shop is a couple of miles away, too).
Great to be able to park next to the pitch, and the pitches are well spread out too. And to top it all off, James and Claire are really welcoming and helpful.
Basically, it was a fab weekend, and I'll definitely be back. I'd say it was a bargain, and the perfect place to explore the Suffolk coast from.

I stayed with my two autistic children and the site was perfect. I have never seen such clean toilet facilities at a campsite!
The toilet /shower blocks were small enough to not get noisy/ busy and there is enough of them to go round. There is a disabled toilet. Some blocks are unisex. There are no hand dryers. Hooray!
The site is spacious and each pitch is a generous size.
The very friendly free range chickens are everywhere and are the main entertainment for the children on site. It can be tricky if preparing food on the ground but that’s quite fun.
There is a playground and big open space through a gate to the campsite and a pub ‘the sorrel horse’ also through a gate to the campsite.
Through other gates you will find woodlands and lovely walks. There are mature trees on site dividing the camping fields into small areas, even when staying on a full site it didn’t feel busy.
Lovely layout and relaxed site. We found a perfect spot next to our tent to put up our travel hammock.
There are fridges, freezers and power supplies for usb or plug sockets available outside toilet block.
A few minutes from Sutton Hoo. So many places to visit close by if you can bring yourself away from the relaxation of the campsite.
We didn’t use the on-site cafe this time but it looked good. We will definitely be staying again.
