What customers say
This is a well-kept, peaceful campsite with large, clean grounds and friendly staff. It's a great base for exploring the Suffolk coast and Southwold. Families love the play areas and open spaces for kids. Glamping pods and shepherd's huts are generally comfy, though some guests noted minor issues with mattresses or Wi-Fi. Limited shower/toilet facilities at peak times are occasionally mentioned.

Great site, lots of space, good atmosphere
FHU grass campsite
Liked Clean and tidy toilets/showers most of the time.
Well stocked shop for essentials.
Friendly atmosphere on site.
Disliked Some people were very noisy in the neighbouring shepherds huts/glamping pods, some campers had to tell them to be quiet after 11pm.
Pitches were very bumpy though.

Nice viewed with lack of sleep and dissapointment
Shepherd's hut
Liked Area is nice and clean, nice walk around.
Disliked The beds in the Sheppard hut were quite uncomfortable. You could feel the metal frame underneath. It was impossible to sleep without an additional mattress on top. When we lodged a complaint, we were provided with two mattress toppers and a quilt; however, this did not enhance the comfort. My father even joked that prisoners have a more comfortable sleeping arrangement. We were informed that they are attempting to replace the toppers, but in my view, the beds need to be replaced entirely. Therefore, if you plan to travel here, make sure to bring an extra mattress, as even the beautiful views will not compensate for a lack of a good night's sleep.
