Bromptons Farm

A aimé Its been a while since my last visit and it still remains my little haven in the countryside.
Brendan the owner is always so welcoming and offers any help he can give.
This is a simple site which provides the essential facilities. Currently has two toilets and one shower although I understand another shower is in the process of being added. There are bins for waste and recycling and a recent improvement is the removal of the large static van on the hard standing which always looked a bit of an eyesore. There is fresh water and facilities for the disposal of waste water and toilet. There is a washing up area with hot water and free WiFi.
The site consists of a large field with plenty of space to set up your tent.
Improvements continue to be made and I look forward to coming back again.
I was dismayed to read the one star anonymous review last month especially as they didn't even give it a try. If you want four star facilities then perhaps you might want to pay for them.
You come here to experience the peace and quiet of the countryside and views across the fields with some of the most amazing sunsets.
Added bonus a short walk away is the local Co Op, fish and chip shop, the Cock Inn Pub as well as a post office.
I look forward to my next visit !

N'a pas aimé Additional shower at busy times but I understand this is already in hand

A aimé This is a return visit and it is just as good as ever. We could choose our pitch which was nice. The facilities were very clean and well stocked. We love the peaceful environment which is very relaxing. Roll on the summer we will be back.

N'a pas aimé Nothing,it is what it is, which is a peaceful retreat.

A aimé Brendan was very friendly and gave us a text before arrival, it was wet so didn’t want to park on the field he said we could park where we liked so we parked next to another van which was fine as we wasn’t getting our tables and chairs out. The hard standing wouldn’t be suitable for two motorhomes in the summer I don’t think. You could park on the field though. Toilets and showers were available they were clean and tidy. It wasn’t very busy as was end of season with rubbish weather not the campsites fault. The cock inn up the road was a short walk and very welcoming.

A aimé Nothing

N'a pas aimé Looked like nobody cared.....broken tiles and bricks laying around the driveway and toilet block. No cover over dishwashing area.....would expect more care and pride to be taken.

A aimé I was free to choose my plot, although more choices without electric than with. I liked the openness of the site and facilities were good. A very helpful owner/manager was present. Wi-Fi was good.

N'a pas aimé Washing up area looked a bit messy and could do with a bin to put food scraps that collect in the plug hole.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you for your review and kind comments about the site, facilities, Wi-Fi and welcome. We’re pleased you enjoyed the openness of Bromptons Farm.

Thank you also for your feedback on the washing-up area. The food-scraps bin had unfortunately been moved to the main waste area opposite, but we’ll make sure one remains beside the sink in future.

We’re very pleased you would recommend us and stay again, and hope to welcome you back.

A aimé The owner Brendan was absolutely lovely made sure we felt welcomed and if we needed anything he was happy to help. Facility’s were clean and tidy. Lots of space around and a quick walk to a co op, park and pub.

A aimé We stayed for 3 nights in the bell tent at Bromptons Farm.
The tent was in a lovely quiet location, and we had everything we needed inside and out. Everything was very clean, the beds were comfy, and the lamps made for cosy evenings. The stove kept us lovely and warm in the evenings.
Outside we had a BBQ perfect for preparing breakfast. The toilet and shower building was well looked after and comfortable.
A short drive to Bury St Edmunds.
The local pub was a short walk away and everyone was welcoming.
Brendan was a great host, checked on us, topped up the fire wood, and even joined us for a pint in the local and we had a good laugh together.
Would love to return for another visit!

N'a pas aimé Nothing to note.
