Sunflower 2 electric grass campervan pitch
Liked Really spacious pitches with excellent facilities in a beautiful and peaceful location. The comunial kitchen and honesty box was a lovely touch.
I really liked the 'green' elements of the site, from the recycling points, eco friendly supplies and the wild flowers that were appearing amongst the numerous trees and hedges.

Daisy non-electric grass tent pitch (backpacker, no cars, no pets)
Liked Gorgeous pitches all cut grass and flat with fantastic wildlife variety, including bee flies, bumble bees and butterflies. The set up of pitches is very secluded making you feel cosy which some sites lack. Lovely facilities very clean, well stocked and tidy, and the communal kitchen with a fridge for food was well thought out. Firewood was lovely and dry with everything you needed. 9pm quite time seems early, but when there are children on site playing it is a relief (we are childless!) as it is very very quiet with owls hooting and dark skies with a few shooting stars. Great location, we were 20 mimutes from Lowestoft and you can see the sunrise from Ness Point, but still in the countryside. Lovely owner who introduced herself and checked up once you're comfy and sorted. Can't fault the campsite at all! Our visit was in April 2026.

Anonymous (3) electric grass tent pitch
Liked Beautiful site and really big pitches, great layout in a peaceful area but still plenty to do not far away. The owners couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly. The kitchenette was handy with all the basics you need.
Disliked The toilet block didn’t feel heated so showers in cold weather were a bit uncomfortable.

Lovely owner and well maintained campsite
Shepherds hut we stayed in foxglove was so nice and cosy very warm at night.

Amazing campsite, beautiful surroundings and nice sized pitches.
Bumblebee camping pod
Liked Cosy, with everything we needed for our stay. Having our own shower and toilet was a very nice touch. The site itself is so peaceful and surrounded by so much wildlife. We sat and watched a mouse climb up and grab a rose hip for its breakfast. So cute!
15min walk to a pub for drinks (no food) or 45 min walk to Wheatacre for a lovely country pub with very good food.
Disliked Nothing about the site itself.
Nothing to do with the site is that it's quite tricky to walk into Beccles as some very fast roads with no direct footpath. just bear in mind if you stay.
