What customers say
Clarks Farm Camping: Peaceful, spacious, dog-friendly site. Guests rave about spotless loos, hot showers & level pitches. Owners are a gem! Some find facilities tight when busy. Great value, quiet vibe, lovely country walks & wild swims. Many keen to return.

Anonymous Bell tent
Liked Friendly, great for kids, peaceful, lots of wildlife, clean and comfortable tent. The bell tent did not get too hot despite the heatwave. Very spacious and safe for kids to run around. Lovely villages, nature reserves, wild swimming spot, tea rooms etc nearby. Our children loved the dogs and other animals.

Anonymous Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Perfect pitches on a mostly level field. Facilities clean and in good condition, although it might be too few during a busy weekend (was not busy when I camped here). Really enjoyed my stay at Clarks Farm.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Sadie and her family were so helpful and accommodating from the point of booking through to the final day of our stay. We had forgotten some items but the matters were solved quickly and Sadie even sent a friend around to help with the bbq when her family were away from the site!
The toilets and showers were exceptionally clean with plenty of hot water (there are 2 of each which was fine for us as the field was really quiet).
Disliked The field is flat and not sheltered so we got blown about a bit the first night when the wind was strong but the endless views across the fields made up for that.

Very quiet location surrounded by countryside.
Very dog friendly.
Lovely walks from the campsite.
Very friendly welcome from owners who were always available if needed.
Shower and toilet block were just perfect to use.
Good Three mobile signal
Will definitely return 🙂

Bell tent
Liked Peace and quiet, lovely owners, very friendly and accommodating. Clean facilities. Short drive into town.
Disliked When we were there we pretty much had it to our selves. I wonder if the site was a lot busier how having 2 toilets and 2 showers would cope. But the owner did say that plan to add more in the future

Liked A peaceful spot in the middle of the Suffolk countryside, miles from anywhere. Plenty of footpaths around to explore. Clean toilets and showers, plentiful water supply and washing up sink. Lots of space to pitch. Friendly welcome from the owner.
