Powered grass campsite (adults only, sloping)
Liked: We had an amazing time camping at Wantisden Park! The site was clean, peaceful, and well-kept and equipped, with clean bathrooms. The host were super friendly and always ready to assist.
The surroundings are absolutely stunning, with scenic walks along a beautiful river path, through lush greenery, and trees filled with signing birds. You don't need to drive to nearby cities- there's so much natural beauty to explore right here!
We're definitely returning. Highly recommend!

Powered grass campsite (adults only, sloping)
Liked: Great base for exploring Suffolk by bike. We also enjoyed an evening walk to Friday Street, seeing lots of deer up close on the way.
Pitches are large, needed levelling blocks but knew this in advance. Very clean shower block. Would be useful to have a seat, bench or shelf for belongings.

Disliked: There was no extraction in the showers, and can’t change the temperature on the shower.
