Electric gravel and hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: The layout of the site was spacious. The utility areas were new, very well-presented and, on arrival, immaculately clean. The arrival was well-organised, the pitch number and key code for the barrier sent well in advance. Other campers were very friendly and welcoming.
Disliked: The men's toilet in particular deteriorated a little over the bank holiday weekend but it was swiftly dealt with.

Overall & for the Price, the Site is a Nice Place for a Few Days Away

Electric gravel and hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: - The facilities are very good and are kept clean
- Friendly and polite owners
- Site is secured with a pin-code barrier
- Hardstanding pitches are a good size and flat
- Easy access to the nearby Bury St. Edmonds
- The coast, Southwold, is an easy 50 mile drive
- Site Wi-Fi is free, unlimited devices and a good speed
Disliked: - Site is more than half full with permanent tourers with people living in them
- The bookable touring pitches are mixed up within the permanent one's
- The 10A RCD trip kept cutting-out when you turned on more than one appliance or an appliance plus the heater
- Connectivity to the site Wi-Fi can be a bit hit/miss. Managed to connect phones okay, but TV kept dropping the connection

Electric gravel and hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: The facilities were nice and clean, and a great place to stay to visit Bury St Edmunds and the surrounding area.
Disliked: It took a while to find the fresh water tap, as it's not where you would expect it to be. I had to wander around and found it between two motorhomes. Quite close to the A14, a constant rumble can be heard at peak times, although the road does get quieter after 10 and on weekends.

Liked: Very helpful and responsive site warden . Lorraine does a brilliant job in keeping the amenities spotless. Very good transport links to Cambridge and bury st edmounds .
Disliked: We had anti social campers next to us we moved pitches this was sorted easily with a phone call and as no reflection on the site. Busy road you need a car to access local towns.
