  • Family-friendly farm site half an hour’s drive from Bury St Edmunds
  • RAF Lakenheath 15 minutes’ drive, and Ely Cathedral 25 minutes
  • Camping shop and fishing on site; riverside pub 15 minutes’ walk
Set within the rural village of West Row in Suffolk, the New Park Farm pitches look out over arable fields and the village’s allotments. It’s a great spot for aircraft enthusiasts who don’t want to be right under the flight path, but close enough to enjoy the comings and goings of planes from RAF Lakenheath (15 minutes’ drive). There’s plenty of space on the neatly mown field, so you can spread out if you’re after more privacy, or huddle together if you’re staying with friends and family. You can also kickback on the daybed, and huddle up around the firepit for warmth on chillier evenings. Practical amenities include mains electricity and a water tap at each pitch, showers, basic baby-changing facilities, a simple washing-up sink and a laundry room. The well-stocked caravan and camping accessory shop opens most mornings, so you can get in supplies too. New Park Farm backs onto the River Lark, just a couple of minutes’ walk from the pitches. Fishing is available (with the correct permit), and you can give paddleboarding and kayaking a go on the water or simply have a stroll down the river to the local pub (15 minutes’ walk), which serves good food. The site is also close to Newmarket (20 minutes), the birthplace of British flat racing, as well as lots of activity parks for the kids.

Liked Look - brilliant location on the River Lark. Calm, generous facilities and no fuss. Hosts so generous - it is really a lovely location.

Disliked US air Force in the back ground? Amusing but not distracting at all!!

 Mitchell M. 1 review

Electric grass and earth pitch

Liked Perfect for a getaway from life in general! We stayed here for a week and genuinely couldn’t fault a thing. The site is beautiful, with lovely little walks around the area — perfect for taking the dog out and enjoying the surroundings. The owner was very friendly and welcoming, which made the stay even better.

We’ll definitely be coming back for our short breaks away from our busy working lives. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to relax and unwind.

One thing we always worry about when booking somewhere is phone signal and Wi-Fi, as we still like to listen to music and watch TV to fully switch off. Thankfully, there were no issues at all here — the phone signal was 100%

Local attractions

Fans of planes vintage or modern, you’ll be in your element at New Park Farm. RAF Lakenheath (15 minutes’ drive) is open for you to inspect historic military craft, and you’ll often see 21st-century fighter planes taking off from there on the skyline. You can also watch the manoeuvres at RAF Mildenhall Visitors’ Centre (10 minutes), where US Air Force planes occasionally land too. Your kids will never have a dull moment. They can go karting at Red Lodge (15 minutes), practise their off-road moves at Phoenix Bike Park (20 minutes) and zoom around quad bike trails at WildTracks Outdoor Activity Park (15 minutes). If they’d rather spectate than compete, there’s drag racing at Mildenhall Stadium (10 minutes) too. Keen to do some cultural sightseeing? There’s the Gothic-era cathedral and half-timbered Oliver Cromwell’s House visitor centre at Ely (25 minutes), while historic Bury St Edmunds (half an hour) offers up 11th-century St Edmundsbury Abbey, surrounded by peaceful leafy gardens – and for a change of pace you can tour the well-known Greene King Brewery too.
