Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked Very generous pitches clearly marked out. Lots of drinking water points. Toilets and showers were immaculate and the under floor heating is a fab idea! The cafe/shop is lovely. The play park and dog walking field are a great. The people who run the site are very helpful. We loved this place and will definitely be back.
Disliked The cafe/shop is only open at certain times.

Excellent site with good facilities. Would definitely return
Electric grass pitch
Liked Lots of staff who were very pleasant. Very clean and well kept site. Toilet block was warm, clean with music playing. Good facilities and Easter activities for children. Options for a quieter pitch in the meadows away from the park if you don’t have children lots of wildlife. Bike rides from site to the coastal towns of Dunwich, Walberswick and Southwold.

Liked Great Stay at Haw Wood Farm
We stayed at Haw Wood Farm for our first trip of 2026 and couldn’t have asked for a better site. It was clean, well-kept, and properly maintained.
The site itself is excellent with spacious pitches, really tidy grounds, and great facilities. The on-site shop and café are a real bonus too. We arrived Friday afternoon and immediately grabbed fish and chips, which was the perfect, easy start to the weekend.
It’s also a great base for exploring. We enjoyed a Parkrun and visit into nearby Beccles, plus a trip to RSPB Minsmere, all within a short drive.
Back on site, it was lovely and peaceful in the evenings, ideal for relaxing and unwinding.
All in all, Haw Wood Farm is a well-run, friendly, and perfectly located site. We’ll definitely be returning.
Disliked Having to press the shower button every 5 seconds was the only fault we could find.

Very friendly, welcoming and helpful staff.
Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Plenty of space with large level pitches. As it was early in the season gaps were left between campers for more privacy.
Spacious shower rooms. Immaculate
Disliked One shower only gave short bursts of water and had to be pressed often.

Highly recommend

Liked Beautifully clean organised site with super bathrooms
Disliked As with previous posters the shower timing is far too short, a shame as the bathrooms are some of the best I’ve used on sites.

Lovely site with level pitches and excellent dog walking area
Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Location, beautiful part of Suffolk with some lovely beaches and pubs a short drive from site.
Very well looked after site.
Cleanliness, the showers and toilets, very modern
Dan and Georgina were very helpful
In the laundry room was where all the pamphlets for information on the local area, could be found. Very useful for walks around the area.
Fabulous dog walking field and woodland area.
Disliked Push taps for showers, especially as the site is open during winter months.
Some of the showers the water temperature was tepid
Recommend to friends Visit again
Definitely visit again, would love to experience the place in summer.

Liked Visited in the winter, actually spent Christmas Day and Boxing Day here. The site is amazing lovely and clean, one of the best dog walks I’ve ever used. Because there was only about 3 units on site most facilities were closed but they had family shower rooms open which were five star to say the least. Also the camper van service point was really good with everything you’d need including handy blue roll. Ideal location if you want to spend time in Southwold.
Disliked Only issue we had all be it a small one, for all the greatness of the shower rooms and they were impeccable the showers only ran for approximately 2 seconds before you had to press the button again.
Recommend to friends Visit again
All in all, a really enjoyable stay on a beautiful site.
Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Immaculate site. Pitches great size. Shower/toilet very clean and warm.
Nice walk to local cafe/bakery. Nice & quiet
Disliked Although understandable, it was a shame that the cafe and shop onsite were closed until Spring. The Wifi was also very hit and miss.
