Heathside Holidays

Liked Karen and the team were really welcoming. Facilities were clean, well maintained and large pitches. Location just outside of Southwold is perfect.

Liked Really generous sized pitches, plenty of privacy between pitches with bushes and trees also offering shade. Facilities were great, clean and tidy. Like many reviews, the toilet block wasn’t massive but didn’t have to once wait for anything so not an issue at all. Shop was really well priced and well stocked too considering it’s an onsite shop. Lovely big area for children to play as well. Can’t wait to book again.

Disliked Nothing - great site and great value.

Liked The scenery and setting of the establishment. It was set back in quite a quiet country road, very little traffic. The grounds were relatively well kept. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The mattress was surprisingly comfortable. The temperature of both the tap and shower were fantastic. And a lovely view from our cabin. The room was spotless for the most part, except the mirror was slightly oily and dirty.

Disliked While I'm trying not to be nitpicky there were a number of issues with the cabin itself that may just be an isolated issue. We stayed in cabin 9 for context. So, the toilet seat was already loose when we arrived and broken off of one of the attachments. The door to the bathroom, despite having a lock, didn't lock. The door to the cabin whilst did lock, couldn't be left unlocked as it wouldnt remain shut, it was ajar, unless you applied great force to lock it. The blinds were filthy, with what I thought was blood stains or potentially just simple dirt marks but who's to say.

We also arrived under the pretense (as advertised) that BBQs were allowed. While I understand we're experiencing a drought and there's fear of wildfires, so a ban or apprehension towards is completely warranted. No message or notification of this was made to us until we'd arrived, checked in and was already too late. A slip of paper was on the table saying "sorry, no BBQs allowed at the moment." Like I say, whilst this is understandable, this should've been conveyed earlier than check in.

The wifi at this accommodation is non existent. You had to stand next to their wifi extender to receive just 1 bar, which quite honestly was no good. Not to mention the wifi didn't extend beyond a 3ft radius.

And one final nitpick. Yes its nature, yes its camping, but the seal on the door was non existent, there were ants parading across the floor, grass hoppers that managed to enter the room all while the door was locked and the accommodation empty.

Liked The whole campsite is very open , spacious, well kept and organised. Everything available is easily accessible. We had a fully serviced pitch with electric and water. The shop is exceptionally well stocked,

Disliked Quite expensive but not worry for us

Liked ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fantastic little getaway!
We’ve just come back from a fantastic stay at Heathside Holidays, and honestly, we couldn’t recommend it enough! ❤️
From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcome. Karen, the owner, is absolutely fantastic — such a lovely, friendly person who really makes you feel at home. The people working in the little shop on site were lovely too.
The site itself is beautiful, peaceful and incredibly quiet, with fantastic views and plenty of lovely walks. And the three donkeys on site were an absolute bonus — we loved seeing them! 🫏❤️
We stayed in one of the glamping pods, which was perfect for us and gave us such a lovely experience. It’s a great base for exploring the area, with so many beautiful places within around 15–20 minutes' drive through gorgeous country roads.
There’s a local pub about a 10-minute walk away. The food was nice, although the menu was quite limited.
And the beaches and surrounding villages are absolutely gorgeous! Dunwich became my favourite — not only because of the beautiful beach, but because of the amazing history behind this little village. ❤️ Southwold is also stunning, with its beautiful beach and iconic lighthouse, while Walberswick is brilliant for crabbing and the speedboat ride was AMAZING! 🚤🦀
One little warning 😂 — as soon as you leave the campsite, your phone signal and internet disappear, so make sure you remember where you're going! 😂📵
But honestly, that just added to the experience. Sometimes it’s nice to properly switch off, enjoy the surroundings and spend time together without constantly looking at your phone.
100% recommended! ❤️ We had such a fantastic time staying here and exploring everything around it. We’ll definitely be back! 🌿🫏🏕️❤️
