 Applefields was the perfect campsite for us - quiet, clean facilities, a small kitchen with kettle, microwave, fridge and freezer and hot clean showers.
It was excellent value and the owner was extremely welcoming and helpful.
It is in a beautiful part of Suffolk perfect to explore with some good local pubs and amenities nearby.

We have been to Applefields for a number of years. We are just back from 12 mights there. The site is a large, open, grassy one, with plenty of hookups and water points.
There are four shower units comprising shower, toilet, and wash basin as well as other toilets and showers.
There is a kitchen with a microwave, washing machine, tumble dryer, fridge and freezer. Also there is a games/reading room. It is a very well equipped site.
The owner, Sue could not be more helpful and friendly. She works incredibly hard keeping the facilities spick and span - toilets and showers are cleaned three times a day! There is often home grown produce for sale - cucumbers this year.
The great thing about Applefields is that you can mix tents, caravans and motorhomes. It is ideal for family groups. Although there is no dedicated play area for children, it is a great space to play games - cricket, rounders etc with them.
For pitches without electric it is £20/night, and £25/night with electricity. Showers are 50p. You can pay by cash or BACs.
We shall be back again next year.

Fabulous site, great facilities, toilets and hot showers spotlessly clean and well provisioned with supplies at all times. Kitchen with fridge freezer, washing machines, tumble drier plus clothes line if needed.
We didn't use the socialising room but what a good idea, if needed. Doggy wash, boot wash and facilities for disabled campers added to the benefits on the site.
Really well run and well kept, the owners worked tirelessly to ensure the guests were happy. Quiet times rules were well published and it was obvious if there had been an issue (there wasn't while we were there) it was easy to call the owners for assistance.
The pitches were well maintained, grass cut and plenty of taps around. Nice separation between three or four fields so felt more like a smaller site rather than giant fields of motorhomes.
Several people we spoke to returned year after year. Literally nothing was too much trouble.
The closest town 5 mins walk offered several take aways and a pub serving food, plus a Co op. Information was readily available on the site for food options etc.
Closest beach was pebbly but nice and had a little cafe on the car park, walking distance about an hour. Other local beaches were lovely too such as Thorpeness, car or public transport needed.

Excellent site. Very well kept, peaceful.
Good facilities.
Nothing fancy which was just what we wanted.
All grass pitches.
Plenty of space and good location for exploring Suffolk

The booking process was simple and easy and we were pleasantly surprised by the relaxed attitude to arrival and departure times.
We were made welcome and given free choice as to our pitch.
Its only a short walk into Leiston which has a good selection of shops and a couple of pubs - one large with a good food selection and the other a friendly 'drinking hole'(no food).
Regular buses go to Saxmundham in one direction and Aldburgh the other.

We really liked staying at Applefields.
Large field with campers dotted round the edge and all the facilities one could hope for including a washing line and a lounge with games and books to shelter from bad weather if needed.

Quiet site in a great location, ideal for exploring Suffolk coast,
5/10 minute walk into Leiston for shops and pubs.
Friendly owner.
Just perfect for a midweek stay.

Nice, clean site, which I would use again.
It is off the b1122 just north of Leiston town centre. The access is a bit tight but ok.
The site owners are good, approachable people and dedicated to keeping the site spick and span.
The fields are flat and regularly mown, though the grass is not collected.
There are good facilities, including separate shower/toilet rooms (showers 50p each), a toilet block, a kitchen with a microwave and a kettle, a play room, laundrette, waste disposal etc.
The site is a good base for the area, and there are plenty of footpaths around. Leiston is pleasant, but not a shopping centre. Saxmundham, 4 miles inland, is the place for supermarkets etc.

This is a lovely campsite, very relaxing -
Short walk into town with good fish and chips.
We took our bicycles and cycled to the beach which was only 10 minutes away to have a morning coffee and the beach cafe.
Facilities are excellent -
Friendly owner -
Will certainly come back

Another fabulous weekend at our go to campsite for a weekend relaxing, playing board games, building Lego, playing badminton, reading and going for walks.
Everything we need for a family weekend away,
Lots to do nearby but a visit to the abbey and a wander into the town was as far as we went.

This is a really lovely site and easy to find, yet not right out on a busy road.
We used it as our base to visit the thorpeness meare with family. Upon arrival the owners checked that we knew where we could pitch up (anywhere that didn't have a reserved sign basically) and we were able to find a lovely secluded field shielded by hedges.
The toilets and showers are separate rooms which is always nice and individual mop buckets means they are kept very clean.
The owner came around later to give us some information and was very helpful.
I would definitely stay again.

Our second visit to this campsite, both times in August. The pitches are well spread out so even at this time of year it does not feel too busy.
Facilities are excellent, more than you need. Location is great, near to a town with shops, pubs, etc and easy access to cycling routes, beaches, pretty towns etc.
Owner is very helpful and attentive to the needs of the people staying on the site. Flexible with arrival and departure times where possible.
Good level pitches and excellent drainage.
