Charles H. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (woodland)

Liked Very peaceful, close to the estuary, where the water had been warmed by the late May sun and was lovely for a refreshing dip after a hike from Manningtree. I rang when I was close and was asked to choose a pitch. There was the only one left, but I'm convinced it was one of the best - no. 3, tucked away in the corner, from where I could glimpse the estuary through the trees. It was furthest from the facilities but that didn't matter because the whole site is tiny. The only sounds at night were the wind in the trees and foxes barking to each other.

Local attractions

Alton Water Sports Centre is set in 400 acres of countryside, where you can wander walking and cycling tracks, go fishing and try out watersports on the reservoir. All equipment, as well as bikes, can be hired at the sports centre. Suffolk Ski Centre (both 15 minutes’ drive) also has some high-octane activities, from snowboarding to skiing on the dry ski slope. More gentle local pursuits might include visiting National Trust-owned attractions including Pin Mill (10 minutes), the setting for Arthur Ransome’s ‘Swallows and Amazons’ on the Orwell estuary, and Flatford Mill (half an hour) in Constable Country, an area with glorious trails for hiking and cycling alongside the river Stour. Spoil well-behaved kids with a day out among the rare-breed animals and reptiles at Jimmy’s Farm and Wildlife Park (20 minutes), where you can also set them up with experiences like anteater-feeding sessions. And if everybody’s keen to get down to the waterside, you can walk to Harkstead river beach directly from the campsite in 15 minutes – but remember to check the tide times.
