Beautifully kept, peaceful park in scenic surrounds. Guests rave about friendly owners, clean facilities (hot showers!), and family vibe. Enjoy the swimming pond, sauna, play areas & walks. Some campervan spots less private; train/guest noise mentioned.

Would 100% recommend and we will be visiting again
Woodpecker shepherd's hut
Liked We had the most amazing time in this idylic little hideaway. We have a profoundly autistic son and it was safe and secure for him to be at one with nature, relax and play in the playground. Everyone was lovely and friendly to speak to and the accommodation was perfect. My partner enjoyed the sauna, we had the loveliest walk around the orchards and enjoyed a late night fire. It could not have been better. Thank you Rob xx
Disliked That we only stayed one night!

Great small friendky site for younger kids
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked We arrived to a warm welcome and a very quiet campsite, lovely secluded feel and very safe and friendly atmosphere. The play area was a big success for our daughter who made friends with other children staying. We gave a unathletic attempt at the triathlon training loop which was a nice addition. Rob made us feel very welcome and it was a well placed site for bury st edmunds.
Disliked The facilities were clean and showers hot, but when it was busier then it did feel like an extra shower would have been useful and on a couple of occasions toilet roll ran out, but just a quick word to Rob and they were replenished

Nice quiet site, would visit again
Non-electric grass motorhome pitch
Liked Clean site, helpful and welcoming owner.
Good facilities and close to local town / shops.
We stayed on one of the campervan pitches, with others in our group staying in buildings next to us and was perfect for our needs.
Quiet and peaceful.
Kids enjoyed the play equipment and swimming in the pond.
One of our group had an enclosed garden, so the smaller children could run around safely.
Disliked Nothing

Cute spot but not very private
Non-electric grass motorhome pitch
Liked Nice countryside and quiet lanes, the sauna and pond is a great touch. Clean washrooms and hot showers. Rob was friendly
Disliked There were loads of wasps when we were there and it didn’t feel very private as there are about three houses near the camper pitches

Lovely site with good quality facilities, nice hosts and good walks
Non-electric grass motorhome pitch
Liked Loved the pond/sauna area, camping glade and look of the Shepard huts, nice and quiet with lovely walks on trails out the back to entertain the dog. Also has good toilet and shower facilities.
Also has good equipment to entertain children with ‘fitness loop’ and climbing frames
Disliked Only small dislike was the motor home pitch was in front of the main house, managed by positioning the camper between where we sat and the house but still didn’t feel particularly private compared to the other camping slots.
