Liked: The site was great. The pitches were really big so we had lots of room. We had all the information we needed before arrival so we could get set up nice and quickly. The toilet block was close by and very clean. The shower was lovely and there was lots of room to keep your things dry. The site felt very relaxing.

From the manager: Good morning Julie, Thank you for your review, unfortunately as you booked through Pitch up you would have been on our rally field but due to the field being very damp we placed you up on our members site. The rally field which you booked through Pitch up does that have Wi-Fi included so unfortunately you wouldn't have been able to get it. Sorry for any inconvenience caused by this. Regards Kylie

Liked: I wish all campsites was this good everything was clean even with all the recent wet weather. The toilets + shower rooms were perfect and lovely and warm. The kitchen even had a fridge if you don't have one on board your van. You can hear the train line but its perfectly acceptable background noise. Good signal on 3 network so didn't need the wifi. Very detailed site instructions and plan was emailed which answered all questions. Look forwards to returning in the future when its warmer and no ground frost.
Disliked: If your really fussy bit of a slope but easier sorted with ramps.

Liked: Excellent Facilities and loved the fact we had the site to ourselves the first night and almost to ourselves the second night! Pretty trees right at the other sides of the site - would have liked to have stayed nearer there a bit further from facilities to have felt more in nature and immersed in site. Very well located for rendelsham forest, Ipswich and Felixstowe beach!
Disliked: The noise from the road and trains; wasn’t the most ‘back to nature’ site we’ve stayed with the floodlights in the distance or the noisy road and trains or the industrial vehicles. Would have preferred a pitch more immersed in the site but no one is around to talk to at weekends.

From the manager: Good morning Gemma, Thank you for leaving us a review, sorry the noise of the local area had an effect on your stay. Unfortunately during the time of the year when all the leaves are off the trees we have no way of blocking out the sound of the train and road. If we had placed you down where you said you would have had the noise a lot more then you did. We are pleased to hear that our facilities were great and that you enjoyed the scenery. Regarding changing pitches you could have called the number i sent you and i would have been more than happy to move you. Regards Kylie

Liked: The place was quiet and serene. The showers and toilets were very clean. Shower was powerful and hot. The owner was very hospitable as he came over, introduced himself and gave us some information about the area also, places to visit.
Disliked: No was no available toilet rolls in the ladies cubicle during our stay. The shower cubicles were claustrophobic.

From the manager: Good afternoon Marcus, Thank you for your review, it was very nice of you. Regarding the toilet roll, if you had have mentioned it to one of our staff we would have been happy to re stock the loo roll. Sorry for any inconvenience caused. Regards Kylie
