Quiet and family-run campsite 10 minutes’ drive from the Suffolk coast
Southwold, Oulton Broad watersports and Beccles all 15 minutes’ drive
Accessible facilities; Wrentham café, pub and shop five minutes’ drive

Seeking a peaceful Suffolk sojourn? At Henstead Fields Caravan and Campsite, you’re in the right spot for family fun (dogs included), local walks, scenic cycle rides or chilling on a North Sea beach – the closest is Kessingland, barely 10 minutes’ drive away, while the pretty seaside town of Southwold is 15 minutes by car. This family-run site is on the outskirts of Henstead village in North Suffolk; you can pitch up or park up on the camping field with plenty of space around you for privacy. Amenities include a disabled toilet and shower alongside separate male and female facilities, plus a washing-up area where pitch allocations are displayed. The field has more than enough green space for games with family and friends, but just keep an eye open for uneven ground while you’re running around. It’s also very rural, so you have the resident owls, muntjacs and pheasants for company – and on clear nights, the stars put on a spectacular display. As for catering, barbecues are allowed on site; there’s a convenience store and deli five minutes’ drive away in Wrentham if you need to buy in supplies. When you can’t face cooking, there’s also a café and pub in the village, and takeaways can be delivered to your pitch.

Jenny B. May 2025

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Remote location
Easy to find.
Really well kept
Separate fenced dog garden
Very clean shower/ toilet cubicles.
Plenty of space on the pitch
Friendly owners
Easy booking and checking in

Disliked: Minor details:
Could have more hooks/ ledges in the cubicles.
Separate toilets would be helpful.
Couldn’t have fire pit but was understandable.

From the manager: Dear Jenny, Thank you for your review :). We're so pleased that you enjoyed your stay and you had a good time. Callum is now looking for more hooks to put up in the shower block as I type so hopefully they'll be installed in the next couple of weeks! Unfortunately the toilets is something we cannot change at the moment but moving forward when we do develop the shower block we will definitely consider increasing the number of the toilets from the 4 we have in separate rooms currently.
Hopefully, we'll see you again. have a great summer.

david B. May 2025

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: We had a lovely stay at Henstead Fields. Nice, flat, even pitches. There is hardstanding for the caravan, with grassed areas for the awnings.
The dog run area is a welcome facility, and there is a good bridleway at the side of the field if you want a good walk.
It's a very peaceful area, but well within reach of Southwold, Lowestoft, Africa Alive and more. The owner Callum was friendly and helpful, and recommended some lovely local beaches. Toilet facilities were spotless. We stayed for 4 nights, but wished we'd booked for longer.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: Very well laid out for a new site. Love the idea of quiet noise after 2200hrs and no noise after 2230hrs. Very peaceful, good location. Grandkids loved their Easter present given to them by the owners young daughter. Nice to see the owner on site everyday.

Local attractions

There’s bags going on for the whole family in lively Southwold (15 minutes’ drive); you can take high-speed boat rides around the North Sea coastline, discover the amusements along the famed pier, or have a potter around the old harbour. Adnams Brewery is open for guided tours and tastings of its wares, and also offers the chance to explore the landmark lighthouse that dominates the town. If you’re into high-octane action, try skydiving at Ellough (10 minutes) but if that sounds a bit scary, book hacks at the local riding school (five minutes) or make for Oulton Broad (15 minutes) for kayaking and sailing. You can also go paddleboarding along the River Waveney from Beccles (15 minutes). Get (quite) up close and personal with Big Five animals like lions and rhinos at Africa Alive (10 minutes), or sneak a bit of history into your kids with visits to Framlingham Castle (40 minutes) and the eccentric Tudor-era Orford Tower (45 minutes). If your offspring are still game on for more culture, Somerleyton Hall (half an hour) has colourful landscaped gardens and impressive Victorian architecture.
