Liked: The time and care that has gone into giving the communal facilities a warm and welcoming feel was very apparent. Loved those pictures of VW camper vans :-). A toaster, hair drier, fridge, coffee machine, etc, all facilities you wouldn’t expect at a budget hotel let alone a campsite. It is clear that the proprietors understand the needs and challenges of camping out and have done a great job in providing a homely and welcoming environment.
Appreciated the large sized plot.
Signage in and around the site was also much appreciated (particularly the arrows to the village pub and shop).
Very much liked the “no music” policy.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike.

Liked: Super friendly campsite - we felt very welcome. It was relaxing and we thoughtless enjoyed our short trip that allowed us a simple drive to the Suffolk coastline. Great facilities, honesty shop and layout to site. We were only camping for one night, but we would highly recommend this site!
Disliked: First time here so we were a little unsure on how to check in on arrival but we were quickly seen.
Not so much a dislike as we could have chosen a pitch away from fire pits - We chose not to use ours, but be aware the smell of smoke will likely be shared by your neighbours fire.

From the manager: Thank you so much for your kind words. All the campers love the facilities and the shop especially! We cannot, unfortunately, be on site all the time to welcome campers and as we have a big check in window from 2pm - 9pm it would be difficult to be a constant presence. This is why we operate a self-check in system. For those who might be reading this comment, it is easy to self check in! Head to the office. Select a free pitch from the Whiteboard. Reserve this by writing your name next to the pitch. Set Up!! Camp fires have a very distinctive 'smell' and does cling to clothes - but a rather evocative smell of summer evenings and the countryside. I am so pleased you enjoyed your stay. T.
