 Well run site with large grassy pitches.
Facilities good. Adjacent to the forest and lakes for plenty of walks, and directly across from the Anglo Saxon village, which has a decent cafe.
Site is broken into several large fields, progressively farther from the facilities block. Lovely sunsets.
Biggest challenge was the complete lack of shade during a July heatwave, although they have planted young trees, but it will be some years before they offer much shelter.
Nevertheless it’s a good site, with friendly staff,
Would use again.

A very clean on the ground and facilities excellent.
Very good dog walks
Various water points
Well spaced out pitches.
As with a motor home there was not a drain set up to drain grey waste water, told to drain near hedge row
Cafe across the road
So for us excellent site
Will be back soon

I stayed at this campsite for 4 nights as a base to visit friends in the area.
The site was well-maintained with good facilities. However, I do not believe the shower block and unisex toilets were heated.
For the lady's shower room, the door was kept opened to aid air flow throughout my stay which was very understandable. It did feel rather chilly after showering when it was very windy the first 2 mornings of my stay. Probably not a site for winter camping. The water could benefit from being slightly hotter.
The unisex toilets only have hand gel sanitisers installed without wash basins with running water.
I arrived later than expected shortly after 19:15 due to extra time spent looking for fuel en-route, and the owners were very understanding when I rang ahead to forewarn them.
When I arrived, the lady owner came out to meet me, and I was advised where find EHU pitches and to pitch wherever I liked, and the location of the facilities block. I pitched near the facilities block for my first night on a grass pitch with EHU.
The next morning, I had a good look around the site, and could not see any hard-standing pitches. When I asked the gentleman owner about the lack of hard-standing pitches, I was informed that they do not have any as the ground is sandy and very free draining.
The ground was certainly very free draining as confirmed by the downpour on the following 2 days of my stay, yet I was able to drive off without any issues.
There is no motorhome service point. I used my Wastemaster and emptied the grey water waste in the Chemical Disposal Point instead.
EE and 3 signals were not great. Although the site WiFi was free to use, again the signal was not great. Good for those who wants to get away from it all.
The site has a direct access to King's forest which I did not spend much time to explore during this trip.
It was not busy during my stay with only a handful of units. Very peaceful being adult-only.
I would probably return in future as it is a good location as a base to visit my friends in the area, and stay for longer to explore the forest with my dog in the warmer months.
All in all, a satisfactory stay.

Excellent location for walking the dog, facilities are clean and maintained to a high standard.

Great find. Lovely site, clean and tidy with well spaced pitches.
Easy access to forest and West Stow Country Park.
A small shop on site selling basics like local eggs, bread and milk would make it perfect as once on site you don’t really want to leave.
Will definitely return.

Fabulous find! Campsite facilities were immaculate, pitches were generous, clients adhered to the ‘quiet’ rules which made for a peaceful break listening to the cuckoos and herons nesting.
Helpful and friendly owners (with their gorgeous doggie who always travelled shotgun).
Definitely recommend 😊

Lovely quiet site beside the King's Forest and near the Anglo Saxon Village.
Well-draining sandy soil that never gets muddy! However in high winds awning pegs can easily come loose in the sandy soil.
New facilities block with hot showers, generally clean but rather dusty. Friendly owner.

The site is on the doorstep of the forest and brilliant for walking and cycling of which we did both. Pitches are large and you get to choose your own.
The site is welcoming and kept to a high standard but the same cannot be said for the toilets and showers they was disgusting! during our 7 day stay we did not see them being cleaned on a regular bases and during covid that is a worry and for this reason we would not return.
