On arrival we were welcomed and told to find a pitch that we liked as there was only two tents on sit at the time,
Before choosing the pitch we checked out the toilet, showers and communal Kitchen, the loos and the showers were very clean, and very new, the kitchen had a couple of double burners and loads of spare pans, there is a fridge with a small freezer compartment in the camp store for refreezing blocks,
We only used the sinks in the kitchen as we cooked over a fire for breakfast, lunch and evening meal. Which as an outside person and a bushcrafter I prefer to gas cooking.
On a side note there is no lights in the showers, loos or kitchen so you would need to take a light in there with you, the owners did say they were looking to install some solar lighting in the near future to over come this.
During the whole stay the facilities were kept clean and tidy,
There are a few items of produce on for sale, we bought beef and pork burgers, these were nice, had to be ordered as kept in the freezer, then left in the fridge for us to pick up.
During our stay, our little one and a friend spent loads of time with the other campers children playing around the small holding and with the animals, it is a safe environment for children to play. I would say that it would be handy it the site had a small climbing frame / play area.
The only real draw back was the road as it is busy, and could be noisy but this was outweighed by the rest of the site.
It was the first time that my girl friend and her little boy had ever camped, they both enjoyed it so much that we will be under canvas again very soon,
As it is only 1/2 hr down the road we will use the site for the odd couple of nights away, when we want a lazy weekend.
This was the first time we have been camping with our young kids (1 and 3 years old!) and we are so glad we found this campsite.
Set at the end of a smallholding with a variety of animals it was the perfect spot for the kids. It felt safe, they could go and visit all the animals and see the kittens and the mill and the pond full of fish and chase the hens.
The shower block was nice and clean and there is a set of working gas hobs for communal use with lots of pans to use. There is also a nice spot for a fire with wood to hire and sausages to buy - and even a swing-ball!
The hosts were ever so helpful and enthusiastic about their new venture. This was 'real' camping - don't expect smimming pools and a bar - but its ethical, small, fun and rural!
This campsite is fantastic for families. The campsite owners went to so much trouble to show our children all the animals, sheep herding, feeding the pigs, cuddling the kittens and stroking the baby donkey. It is brilliant and has a wonderful relaxed feeling.
The facilities are also very good and they have provided a shelter with 2 stoves and cooking utensils. The weekend we stayed it rained almost constantly but it didn't matter at all. We still used the outdoor showers which were lovely and warm, the toilets were spotless and all in all it's a fabulous campsite.
We saw something on a review site that mentioned road noise, this is total nonsense as the road is so quiet there is hardly any traffic.
If you want a 'proper' camping experience with lots of animals to keep the children amused, this is the place. It's 20 mins from the beach, 10 minutes to a shop, 5 minute walk from a very friendly pub and 5 minutes from Framlingham.
Will definitely return and wish the Campsite owners the very best of luck in their new venture!
From phoning to check availability we were welcomed to this site. The owners were findable whenever we needed them and very helpful and friendly.
The site is fairly flat, although a bit rutted and muddy in places (dreadful June weather) and we put the tent near a small hazel copse which gave us good protection when the winds came up (Suffolk show cancelled - it was that windy).
The owners are fairly new to camping but have put a great deal of thought into what we need. The toilets are great, but the showers were a bit too well ventilated for comfort and being only semi-roofed let a lot of tree rubbish in. The site is near a road, but it was only busy (country-busy) at commuter times.
The surroundings are lovely and we were welcome to explore the small holding, animals, mill with local artist. And we used the campfire to cook mutton burgers one night, and brunch of very good sausage, bacon and eggs.
We visited Sutton Hoo, the coast and Woodbridge tidal mill (very good), and hope to return with extended family next year.
We stayed here over the jubilee weekend and we feel very pleased to have discovered such a wonderful place! The owners are very friendly and accommodating - bringing us a bag of wood (very reasonably priced) via wheelbarrow and always on hand if we needed them!
The site itself is in a small field with room for 7 or so tents and we were welcomed to explore their lovely little smallholding with veg garden, chickens, turkeys, goats rare-breed Berkshire pigs! There was also produce on sale; we had some delicious sausages.
The facilities were second to none - 4 toilets which was plenty for the size of the site and wonderful outdoor showers (gas powered) which were easy and fun to use. The owners put a lot of thought into making the facilities low impact and pleasing on the eye, using sheds which were painted in a beach hut style! In addition to these facilities there is also a kitchen area with two gas burners, twin sinks and a collection of kettles, pots and pans which was great when the weather was unkind - providing somewhere dry to make a cuppa and chat with fellow campers!
There is a communal fire area and some really sweet chairs and table made from reclaimed cable reels, giving a nice place to rest or eat.
The Victoria Pub is a few minutes walk down the road, selling local beer and home cooked food - very appreciated in the wet bank holiday weather.
We feel very lucky and privileged to have been among the first visitors here - I've thought long and hard on how it could be improved upon and the only thing I can think of is maybe a mirror above the handwash basins? All in all it was a pleasure being here and I'm looking forward to our next visit!
