What customers say
This is a well-managed, clean, and peaceful campsite with spacious pitches. Guests consistently praise the friendly and helpful owners, Callum and Sarah. Facilities, including toilets and showers, are kept immaculately clean. The enclosed dog run is a popular addition. While some suggest improvements like lighting for the dog field and more mirrors/hooks in shower blocks, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive. The site's quiet location is ideal for relaxation, with easy access to local attractions.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass pitch
Liked We recently stayed at Henstead Fields Caravan and Campsite and had a fantastic experience.
The owner was very friendly and welcoming, coming over to greet us when we arrived, which made us feel at home straight away.
The campsite itself is clean, quiet, and well maintained. The toilet and shower facilities were always spotless, which we really appreciated during our stay.
The location is also excellent. There are several supermarkets within a 10-minute drive, the beach is only around 15 minutes away, and the zoo is about 10 minutes from the campsite, making it a great base for family days out.
This is a wonderful place to stay, especially for families with children. We had a great time and would highly recommend Henstead Fields Caravan and Campsite to anyone looking for a peaceful and well-kept campsite.

Liked Very clean and spacious site, Callum introduced himself on arrival and was very helpful and friendly. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and visited all the local nearby resorts. Grandchildren a bit disappointed as no play area but played ball on the field in the middle.

Liked So peaceful
Easy check-in from midday I think up until 9pm which makes for great flexibility.
Great communication and information pre check in
Large pitches, very nicely spread out around a very large tree lined field.
Toilet block, washing up area and bins all spotlessly clean, lovely hot showers!
Thanks for a great stay - We’ll be back!

Overall, a super site, will definitely go again.

It is a lovely and peaceful site, good facilities and a really friendly owner...Callum.

From the manager: Hi Richard, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're really pleased you appreciated the clean and quiet site. Some pitches have longer waste/electric hook up that other so if you do book again please do ask if you would like a pitch with a closer hook up. We do always have spares, free of charge, for guests if their cables/pipes do not reach. Have a lovely summer, Sarah and Callum
