  • Suffolk site with well-drained grass pitches on the edge of Snape
  • A 10-minute drive from Aldeburgh on the Suffolk Heritage Coast
  • Half an hour’s walk from Snape Maltings and three dog-friendly pubs
What a patch of land this is. Croft Farm Camping, on the edge of the village of Snape, is home to green fields with well-draining sandy Suffolk soil that holds up quite nicely even after wet weather. There are walks right from the gate – the Sandlings Walk, plus miles of trails across the coast, heathlands and countryside – and three dog-friendly village pubs within half an hour’s walk, all with seasonal menus suitable for a big appetite. What else might you want to know about this place? Well, the simple facilities include toilets, showers and chemical disposal, and barbecues are permitted. Dogs are welcome, and they should very much appreciate those local walks. The sea is only five miles away, too: Aldeburgh is the closest spot, just a 10-minute drive from the site, and forms part of the Suffolk Heritage Coast, which stretches for about 50 miles (with plenty of splendid shingle beaches and seaside towns to visit). Croft Farm Camping is about half an hour’s walk away from scenic Snape Maltings, where there’s a concert hall and just-lovely riverside walks. Those strolls can always end at one of the cafés along the river Alde; allowing extra time is always a good idea too, as there are independent shops and galleries to browse around. If you’re keen to get in some time on your bike, good news: there’s a cycling route along the Suffolk coast and waymarked mountain-biking trails (with pretty epic features like manmade bomb craters and sandpits) in Tunstall Forest, 15 minutes’ drive away, and Rendlesham Forest, 20 minutes away.

What customers say

This new campground has friendly, helpful hosts, spacious, clean sites, and well-kept washrooms. Guests loved the info pack, quiet vibe, and great location for local attractions like Snape Maltings. Most were very happy, though a few suggested more washrooms would be good as the site grows.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Had a wonderful welcome from Tina and Richard with a very informative welcome pack, detailing walks and local shops. Could do with a couple more toilets/showers but I’m sure they will be added as it’s quite a new site.
