What customers say
Stunning, tranquil spot with private, roomy pitches in woodland. Close to beach/river, lots of wildlife. Clean facilities, fire pits & taps at pitches. Minor ground quirks & compost toilet smells noted, but overwhelmingly loved. Keen to return!
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















Nice location and pitch facilities. Good value for money.
Unpowered grass and earth tent site (woodland)
Liked The pitch size and having our own water tap. The location, near to the river for a walk along the beach.
Disliked The compostable toilets, not because they are a bad idea, quite the opposite, but some people used them incorrectly and so they became dirty.

Unpowered grass and earth tent site (woodland)
Liked Great woodland campsite where you feel like it’s just you there! Having a drinking water tap at the pitch was so handy, as well as a fire pit and grill for cooking on. Toilet and shower facilities were clean. Great location for a walk along the river beach, whilst the trees shelter you from the wind. This was our second time here and we will definitely be coming back!

Unpowered grass and earth tent site (woodland)
Liked Really loved the enclosed camping area's that gave lots of privacy throughout our stay, the private beach views were amazing, the shower was hot and toilets were kept really clean. Being able to buy logs and kinderling on site made everything so much easier, Being provided with a fire put and picnic table for each site made our stay even better. Iv been before and will come again. Thank you!

Unpowered grass and earth tent site (woodland)
Liked Netherhall Farm campsite is beautiful and peaceful, with the added bonus of private pitches tucked away in the forest. The facilities are excellent and very clean, and firewood is readily available. There’s a lovely walk along the river, and nearby Pin Mill is worth a visit. The campsite is also conveniently located for day trips to Colchester and Ipswich.

Great option for bike packing
Unpowered grass and earth tent site (woodland)
Liked Nice (mostly) quiet camping in amongst trees. Composting toilets work well. The gas powered shower is really good.
Disliked Some folks ignoring the curfew.
The pitches could have been smoother.
