  • 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 lovely 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 pretty 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. This friendly farm site has simple facilities including toilets, showers and chemical disposal, and barbecues are permitted. Dogs are welcome, and will surely 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, with the rest of the Suffolk Heritage Coast stretching out for about 50 miles and hosting plenty of splendid seaside towns and shingle beaches. Croft Farm Camping is about half an hour’s walk away from scenic Snape Maltings, a lovely attraction with a concert hall, riverside walks and a good cluster of indie shops, cafés and galleries to browse. 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

A new, peaceful site with roomy spots & friendly owners. Clean facilities are praised, as is the helpful local info. Great for exploring Snape & Aldeburgh. Some early capacity/wind concerns noted, but improvements are underway, with expansion planned. Ants were a rare issue.

Stopover primitive grass tent or RV campsite (no cars)

Liked Had a lovely welcome from Tina, Richard & Hendricks.
The site was lovely & quiet and our stopover pitch was perfectly level.
The welcome pack was very thoughtfully put together with some nearby walking routes & a list of nearby places we may need from shops to attractions.
Our son loved the sweets, thank you very much! :D
It’s a shame we were only passing through & we would love to come back in future, our dog will love it.
The toilet & shower block were lovely & clean and there are works currently going on to extend these.
The WiFi also worked a treat.

Disliked Can’t think of anything

Matthew B. 1 review

Powered grass travel trailer campsite

Liked A very peaceful campsite only a very pleasant 25min rural walk from Snape Maltings where we visited the Aldeburgh Food & Drink Festival. We were warmly welcomed by the owners and made to feel very much at home. The pack we were given was very thoughtfully put together. The temporary loo/shower block was very clean and the showers were excellent. Look forward to returning for another Food Festival.

Disliked Obviously once the permanent loo/shower block is eventually built, there will be more loos and showers to use, as sometimes there was a queue.

Fabulous new campsite designed and built by knowledgeable people.

Powered grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Only 3 other units on site for the 2 nights we spent here. The welcome pack was a fabulous touch.
Very clean, modern facilities.
Welcoming owners.
The maps provided allowed us to walk mostly off road to Friston and Snape Maltings (lovely place to spend a few hours). So many quiet walks which were perfect for us and our dog.
Unbelievably excellent value for money with electric.

Stopover primitive grass tent or RV campsite (no cars)

Liked We had one night here as a stopover. The site is excellent. Toilets, showers, water , ehu and Elsan emptying. ( green fluid only) . Large field , various footpaths for walks from the site. And most importantly, a very warm welcome from Tina. Recently opened. We wish them every success. Paddy and David

Local attractions

Aldeburgh (10 minutes’ drive) is a lovely place for a beach wander, with traditional fishermen’s huts, Maggi Hambling’s stunning ‘Scallop’ sculpture and a renowned fish and chip shop. Elsewhere along the coast, you could stroll among the smokehouses at Orford (15 minutes) before taking a boat trip to Orford Ness, or go birdwatching at RSPB Minsmere (25 minutes). Stylish Southwold (half an hour) is another popular pick, for its indie shops, brewery and pier. Looking into the local heritage might take you to 12th-century Framlingham Castle (20 minutes), where you can walk the walls and see the medieval great hall, or to the Anglo-Saxon royal burial site at Sutton Hoo (25 minutes). To mix up outdoor time and history, head to the National Trust’s Dunwich Heath and Beach (25 minutes), to learn about the ‘lost town’ of Dunwich and see some 13th-century ruins after wandering through the heathland – a vital habitat for rare wildlife species.
