  • Family-friendly farm site half an hour’s drive from Bury St Edmunds
  • RAF Lakenheath 15 minutes’ drive, and Ely Cathedral 25 minutes
  • Camping supplies shop on site; riverside pub 15 minutes’ walk
A brand-new site for 2025, New Park Farm offers a quiet location to pitch within the rural village of West Row in Suffolk. The camping field looks out over arable fields and the village’s allotments, and is 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 camping with friends and family. Amenities include mains electricity and a water tap at each post, shower and toilet facilities and an Elsan point. A well-stocked caravan and camping accessory shop opens most mornings, so you can stock up on supplies and essentials. 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 all try canoeing and kayaking out 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.

Rachael B. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric grass and earth pitch

Liked Nice size pitch, very helpful and friendly people. Clean and roomy shower and toilet facilities, although there are only two so you sometimes have to wait if the site is busy.
Booked thinking it was closer to Bury St Edmunds as that is what it came under but in reality it's closer to Newmarket. Not that this was a disappointment just a bit further than expected.

Disliked The elsan emptying facility doesn't have a hose, which makes it more tricky to rinse and clean, but that's just being a bit picky. 🤣

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review,
With regard to the Elsan point- we had a hose in place at the elsan point but were made to remove it by Anglia water as there's a risk of contamination with the hose being put into waste tanks - there rules not ours .

Loved this site and would return

Michaela B. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric grass and earth pitch

Liked Small site in a rural location with amazing night sky due to low light pollution.
Showers are good and the bathroom /washroom areas are clean, with very good facilities including washer and dryer.
Easy to book.
Near to local amenities such as shops, chippy and park for young children.
Excellent for watching the flights out of Mildenhall and only a short drive to Lakenheath.
Will definitely stay again.
Plenty of dog walks near the site.

Disliked Nothing
Don’t think it had WiFi but don’t need it or ask for it.

Bell tent

Liked Loved it from the moment we got there, Mark welcomed us so well, hermioni kept us informed via text which was great. The tent was clean and comfy. We loved it all, we had a mini fridge topped up with water,milk and on the side we had coffee and biscuits. I didn't expect all that. LoVED it! It was very quiet, perfect as we wanted to get away from the London noise. Thank you 😊
