A friendly and user friendly site, also dog friendly, so we had a great stay. Loved the chickens on the site! Quick, responsive pre-booking service, after which we could drive straight to our allocated place, that was ready for us.
A large site, but trees and bushes give the feeling of privacy and we had plenty of space. We didn't use the cafe but it was nice to have it. Changed our gas bottle which was very helpful.
It was good that the dogs were free but now our son is older, the added extra adult fee did make the overall price of our stay feel quite high as we are quite self contained and so don't make much use of the toilet block etc.
I would return to this site and happily recommend to any friends or family wishing to visit this beautiful part of Suffolk.

Laid back, comfortable atmosphere. Easily found (with Sat Nav-of course). Evenings were chilled with a few using the fire pits available from site. Gave a wonderful relaxed feel.
With low level solar lighting when dark you could hear only the crackling of wood from the pits and it was so quiet before 10 pm.
The toilets were 10/10 and for the time we were on site always found them clean, soap dispensers filled and the obligatory sanitizer always available at the entrance.
James the owner was always busy around the site. Fridges and freezers for guest use.
There is a cafe on site for breakfast with produce sourced locally but we did not use this. Pizza available on Tuesday evenings.
Visited as a couple but a fantastic safe site for younger children. There are animals on the small holding and the chickens run freely (and also up into the camper) but will easily move out for a few well aimed crumbs onto the grass.
We arrived just as the school holidays were ending, but pitches were spacious and I imagine even when full, space was plentiful.
A pub, The Sorrel Horse was a 5 minute walk from the site entrance. Not quite our choice of menu (a little pretentious for us) but we gave it a shot all the same. Would enjoy a drink next time but not food.
It does receive great reviews so most probably us. Quite central for Woodbridge (we were pleased to see easy parking without height barriers at the station car park with reasonable rates). Southwold and Sutton Hoo just a short drive.
All in all great for a few days of peace and quiet. This is a site to keep in mind for a few days with the grandchildren.

Livestock smallholding location with chickens roaming freely around the site and short trail through sheep, pig and alpaca pens.
Large open playground and peaceful from early evening.
Excellent for families with young children.
Washing and toilet facilities clean and functional.

Stayed for one night whilst on a bike packing tour with a friend. On the busy/ noisy side but was prepared for it since it's marketed as a family site.
Nice, clean and hot showers. Convenient water points around the field.
Just a few mins away from a nice pub too.
States wifi but nobody to ask for the password.
I'd stay here again.

Very comfortable and good stay.
All well organised and site well maintained and clean.
Prefer to do all our own cooking so did not use the cafe.
Would strongly recommend.

What a wonderful place to stay. Pretty fields to camp in, surrounded by woods, moorland and lovely dog walks and very well located.
Large plots, excellent toilet, shower and washing-up facilities.
Very helpful owners who went above and beyond for us. People go back year after year and the other guests were friendly without being intrusive and very quiet from about 11pm and through the night.
Lots of children roaming happily around and playing with the free-ranging chickens.
Dogs have to be on leads because of the chickens and other livestock but apart from that there seemed no need for rules or restrictions.

Knock-out campsite! Very friendly welcome - always room for a hiker or cyclist! A cafe on site. Pizza evenings sometimes.
A blissfully quiet area to locate yourself. Perfect for cycling those quiet country lanes. And don't miss sunsets down by the river at Ramsholt three miles away.

Fabulous campsite, so quiet with literally no road noise. 2 toilet and shower blocks, one newer than the other. Both always clean.
Big size pitches. Within 5 minute drive of a village shop, 20 minutes from a co-op and a few miles further for an Aldi and Tesco.
Village pub is just 2 minute walk away and very welcoming with good food. The shepherd and dog inn at hollesley does amazing food.
5 mile cycle from Shingle st beach. Town of Woodbridge is lovely.
Not a place to go if you don’t like chickens as they are very friendly! And you def need a table to out your food on / cook on as they are quick!
Cafe wasn’t open when we were there but pizza oven was fired up a couple of nights a week and Peres pizzas are lush

GREAT campsite. The site is clean and well run.
The toilet blocks are well kept and the site owners clearly care about the upkeep.
We had young children and they loved the animal feeding and location.
The other families were friendly and the children made some new friends.
Pizza restaurant worth a visit as well.
Recommended.

Wow what a site!😁 absolutely perfect if you have young children. The couple who run it are fantastic- let our boys (5 and 7) help walk their dogs round the small holding and were so friendly and chatty with them.
Animal feeding (certain nights only) was really lovely, we were able to go right in with the animals and collect eggs from the chickens.
Site is right next to lovely woods/little heath area where people had put up some rope swings in some of the trees. Beach nearby (pebble) where we found fossilised sharks’ teeth.
Site felt very safe to let children go and play and make friends 😁
Lovely large pitches, very nice toilet/ shower blocks very clean with warm water all day.
Will definitely go back again!

Really loved this family friendly site our children aged 9 & 12 enjoyed the whole experience. (& cuddling the chickens!)
The fire pit was a hit, great to have on site fridge, freezer, shower block & play area and owners were friendly, welcoming & helpful.
Shottisham is a beautiful small village & the nearest shop is a drive away (just so you don't get caught short, )
Plenty to do in the local area, we hired bikes & got them dropped off to us at Rendlesham Forest, enjoyed Woodbridge, Sutton Hoo is very near, as is Bawdsey foot ferry to Felixstowe where the ferry boat Inn provides great food.
Wanted to do more but just ran out of time would definitely go again.
