What customers say
This is a well-maintained, friendly campsite with clean facilities and a strong emphasis on nature. Guests praise the peaceful atmosphere, the swimming pond and sauna, and the helpful owners. While most campervan pitches are well-received, a few guests found them to be small and less private. Play areas and the natural setting are popular with families.

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch
Liked "A hidden gem! Whitehouse Farm, Uppertown, Wetherden, Stowmarket, Suffolk, IP14 3ND, is the perfect place to get away and reconnect with nature. It’s wonderfully peaceful, but there is still plenty of space for the kids to run around and explore safely. The Rob and his wife are so friendly and clearly take great pride in keeping the site tidy. The toilets, washing up area and showers were always spotless, which is a huge plus when camping. Dedicated places for tents, campervans. They even have a sauna, pound for swimming in nature, thats sercurly fenced off. Highly recommend this site to anyone looking for a relaxed, family-friendly, couples or solo get away.

A really great site. Peaceful and secluded and great for families.
Non-electric forest floor tent pitch
Liked The campsite was small and secluded. We had the one woodland camping pitch and it was great as we much rather woodland than a big field - but once we arrived we realised that the field wasn't too oversized and we would have been fine there too. I think there was a max of 8 tents on the field, so not crazy. The owner was very friendly and spoke to us on both days. They live on site so easy to access if there are any issues. It was very peaceful. Parking is nearby which was fine for us but it's a little bit further for the field - I think there were only two wheelbarrows to help with carrying your things. We were unable to get one for pitching but we snagged one for our takedown. The pond was sweet, there is a playground for children, and a 'fitness' loop around the site too.
Disliked The only downside for us was our neighbours. They had three small dogs and refused to put them on a lead, despite it being a site rule. There were many other dogs on the site which were tied up, but this couple became verbally aggressive when we asked them to tie them up, despite their dogs walking all over our pitch and at one time trying to get into our tent. This was mentioned to the owner but his response was 'they don't seem fond of the lead' or something similar, which was disappointing.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: We're sorry that the neighbours dogs were not kept under control. We did request that they be kept on a lead at the time. Unfortunately they only partially adhered to that request. We were unaware that the dogs had been wandering around the other woodland pitches annoying other campers, as when we spoke to this camper they did not mention that detail, and the dogs were at that point within the realms of the shepherd hut where they were staying. Had we been made aware of any aggressive response and continued lack of control, we would have taken matters further.
Lovely little spot, would stay again
