Manor Farm

No availability at present on Pitchup.com

  • Countryside site a short drive away from the Suffolk coast
  • Aldeburgh, Thorpeness and Snape Maltings all within 10 minutes' drive
  • On a family-run working farm with a tennis court and spacious lawns
Fond of the idea of a countryside stay that's a short drive from the coast? Meet Manor Farm, where the pitches are on a family-run working farm in the Suffolk countryside, just a 10-minute drive from the beaches of Aldeburgh and Thorpeness. Just a little longer in the car, and you will also be able to reach Dunwich or RSPB Minsmere in 20 minutes and Southwold in half an hour. That location makes these spacious pitches oh-so convenient for beach days, walking, cycling and family days out. And if you fancy a bit of time on site? Guests are welcome to use the full-size tennis court (with rackets and balls available to borrow) or relax on the lawns – which the owners suggest are particularly well suited to a spot of morning yoga. Do remember that this is a farm, so certain sights and sounds are a given, including tractors and seasonal machinery. A short walk away from the pitches is a converted stable block with bathroom facilities (including all-day hot water so you can have a warm shower whenever you wish). Pick up drinks for deckchair sipping in Saxmundham, 10 minutes’ drive away.
