 Lovely camp site, shop, restaurant and bar all on site,
Found all of the staff very friendly and helpful,
Showers, toilets etc very clean.
If I had to pick a bad point, it would be the lack of control of dogs on the site, had big problem getting sleep as various dogs were barking till very late and again in very early morning. But owners of the various dogs didn’t seem to do anything to stop the barking

Amazing site - perfect for walking to RSPB Minsmere along the beach.
Made to feel very welcome and everyone very friendly.
Had a lovely meal in their restaurant.
Would recommend.

We had a lovely break.
Very nice site.
We enjoyed the walks.
Very good on site food, such a treat not having to drive anywhere.
Will be back again when it is warmer for some beach time.

This is a well kept park with lovely grounds.
The staff are super friendly.
The site is next to the beach and the facilities for showers, washing up and a well stocked shop were superb.
We also booked an evening meal at 12 Lost Churches which was lovely.
Would definitely recommend this site in Suffolk.

A great Bank Holiday getaway.
The park was well kept and the staff were always on hand to give help and advice.
The pitches were well sectioned and nice and large.
The steps down to the beach was a great added bonus and the walks were well marked out.
The toilet/shower blocks were always clean (staff visited several times a day to check).
Had a meal in the restaurant delicious food and good selection of wines and spirits in the bar.
Could not fault this campsite.
Will definitely be visiting again in the summer.

Nice location and a wooded site with easy access to the beach down the cliff steps. Efficient welcome pack system for our "late" 6pm arrival. Well stocked shop and Calor gas is sold from reception.
There is also a restaurant and bar, but we didn't use those. The WC & shower facilities are excellent. Lots of motorhomes and caravans - most look as though they're rigged for the season.
Note that they don't allow wheeled vehicles on the tent field so they have some multipurpose pitches for those who need them. However - ours was well packed shingle with a thin layer of bark chippings - not ideal for tent pegs without a big mallet.
Most of the pitches have an electric hookup included in the cost.
Firepits and BBQs with legs are normally permitted but notices remain from a (very sensible) summer 2022 prohibition.
Site management is pleasantly hands-off. We arrived, pitched, stayed and departed without any interaction apart from buying gas. EE's 4G mobile signal is very good so the lack of wi-fi except by reception was no issue whatsoever.
Overall, we were impressed and will probably return. Except with a bigger mallet next time.

Quiet secluded pitch Ground staff and “neighbours” very helpful and welcoming Different areas for camping and families plots clearly marked with boundaries.
Good facilities restaurant was booking only and very quiet bar during all the time of our visit.
Internet connection/signal only available at top of steps leading to beach or in bar area … which is handy if you want to get away from it all 😉👍 access to beach, great if you are mobile.
Southwold Pier a 20 min car ride…. Well worth a visit 🌟

Ok but they close the toilet and shower block for cleaning at 9:30am!
This is like the old Blackpool B &Bs - breakfast @ 7am don’t come back till 5!

Thanks to the fabulous staff for finding us the last space over Jubilee weekend and leaving us clear instructions.
Good clean shower facilities. Good beers. Food quality and selection could be better.
Wonderful to go to sleep to the sound of the sea.
Thanks for a great first family night out in our new tent!

Very quiet, clean site. Some nice walk ways nearby, we chose our bikes & went to Southwold, about an hour at a slow steady pace!
Well stocked shop on site, bar & restaurant very tidy, we didn't eat, just a couple of drinks, reasonably priced.
Let down with the signal & wifi, literally had none at our pitch, was needed on a few occasions & on our last night wanted to watch the sport on Internet tv so had to purchase another connection sim! Hit & miss still but managed in the end, bit of a deal breaker for us tbh, stronger wifi needed & few others agreed.

This site is a real gem if you are into walking, wildlife and want a tranquil spot out of season. Set in lovely woodland and sandwiched between beautiful Dunwich Heath and the beach, the location was perfect for us.
The reasonably priced and generously sized pitches seemed to all be grass, with EHU. Facilities are superb and cleaned twice a day. There is a restaurant / bar on site, but we didn't use it so can't comment.
Our only negative were that there wasn't a motorhome service point, so it was back to the bucket to empty the grey waste, however, the grey waste, black waste and fresh water are all at the same point so not too much trouble.
The site is within walking distance of RSPB Minsmere and Dunwich, both can be accessed from the beach or road.
We will definitely be back.

I found the reception staff really helpful, I wished to stay for 7 nights but only could accommodate me for 3, on my third day they found room for me and I didn't even have to re pitch.
Their on site restaurant and pub was well stock and their food menu was excellent.
The toilet and shower block was always pristine no matter what time of day.
I would strongly recommend this site.

Booked a few nights with family who were staying for a week, and the wardens were able to put us next to them on a large pitch with more than enough room for our motorhome and pick-up truck and we could have added our awning but it wasn't needed on this occasion.
Most of the pitches are under trees so plenty of shade or a bit short of sun depending on your perspective - although there is a lovely lawned tent camping area next to the house - but level and spacious, divided by bushes and large logs. Pitches are quite sandy; due the trees many don't have much grass cover.
There's a nice communal bbq area, and two shower blocks. The new block is very smart but only has three (large) shower cubicles. There are also only three in the older block which I would think would lead to queuing at busy times.
Another area which I found a bit lacking is water points - we weren't too far from the facilities block which had one, but having been spoilt with water adjacent to the pitch on other sites we found it a bit of a trek to get drinking water.
There are some very smart statics which dominate this site but tourers are still well catered for.
The on site restaurant is now open again (Bookings only) and is very nice with a good choice of pub staples plus a few specials. It also has a large partially covered patio where you can get free wifi - useful if you need to stay connected as there is zero phone signal or mobile internet anywhere on the site.
There's a large play area adjacent which includes a ball games court for kids.
The location is fabulous - lots of footpaths and good cycling in the area; direct access down some steep steps to the beach.
You can walk along the beach or through the woods to Dunwich which has a shop, pub and two tearooms (Dingles is nice); it's also a few hundred yards along a no through road to Dunwich Heath nature reserve.
Minsmere is also nearby and it's a convenient spot for Aldeburgh, Southwold and Walberswick while being a haven from the busy atmosphere of Suffolk's popular coastal resorts.
Worth calling in at nearby Emmerdale Farm Shop on the way (huge car park so fine for caravans or motorhomes) - they've got a brilliant selection of meat for the BBQ plus lots of other local goodies.
