Brick Kiln Campsite

Aimé Location - lovely and quiet but walkable to excellent pub and shop. (We'd highly recommend booking a meal at The Duck pub in Campsea Ashe!) Aldeburgh beach and Sutton Hoo National Trust site are both within 20 mins drive, which are both lovely and well worth a visit.

Facilities - beautifully maintained and easily accessible. The shower rota system during peak morning times works really well, and the kitchen with kettle and toaster was great. There is also a table tennis table, pool table, and social are under a gazebo, which we really enjoyed.

Honesty Shop - really well stocked with snacks, toiletries, and camping essentials (our lighter ran out of fuel but we were able to buy matches). Honesty system is fantastic and respected by all campers - you basically log what you take and settle up at the end of your stay.

Fire Pits - free to use and our favourite bit of our stay! You can buy logs and kindling which are both very reasonably priced and very good quality and have an open fire every night if you wish. We did and it was fantastic, such a lovely touch 😊

Very dog friendly - dogs aren't just tolerated but actively welcomed and we were in heaven seeing all the pups people had brought with them! We are getting a dog shortly and will definitely be coming back to Brick Kiln with our pup.

Staff - Tina and the team were extremely friendly, welcoming, and visible and their customer service is off the charts. Our luggage rack on our car came loose during our stay and the team helped us by lending us a whole rack of allen keys to make sure it was tight and safe. This is clearly a team that loves what they do and I cannot speak of them highly enough, thank you all! ❤️

Non aimé Literally nothing - this campsite is ideal if you are looking for an adults only, dog friendly site.

Aimé Peaceful and relaxed atmosphere, friendly and helpful owners. The kettle and fridge were much appreciated, as was the shelter with small tables and comfy seating. Clean and well maintained shower/toilet block too - what's not to like? Delightful stay and we'd love to come back

Non aimé Nothing - it was great

Aimé Everything - I have been at least 6 times
The shower and toilet facilities are excellent

There is a covered chill out space with plenty of comfy seats and a little pool table.
You can use their firepits and buy wood and kindling from them.
Choose your own pitch in a level well kept field.
The whole place is set up for a safe and easy camping experience.

Aimé I do like coming here for a quiet reset. Everyone follows the no music rule, which makes the atmosphere much calmer than other campsites. The use if their fire pits is always a nice option on a summers evening too.

Depuis le manager: Thank you for your kind words and I am so pleased that the 'little' touches made such a big difference to you. I look forward to welcoming you back.

Aimé Friendly and clean, peaceful with all the amenities you would need.

Good location for motorbike camping as well.

Pitches are well spaced out even when busy.

Thank you for a pleasant stay.

Depuis le manager: Thank you for your lovely review. Yes - we welcome motorbike campers! And with so much on offer here - all you need to bring is your tent! I even do towel hire. We like campers to have plenty of space within their pitch. Thank you again. T.

Aimé Good location, lovely hosts, quaint and unique facilities, good choice of pitches, covered patio/ eating area, free use of fire pits (wood chargeable), honesty shop is really well stocked

Non aimé It’s not really a dislike as it worked for us but the campsite is extremely quiet (no music which is clearly advertised before you book) but it is a quiet and early to bed site x also showers were super powerful but minor. We will come back as it’s genuinely lovely

Depuis le manager: Thanks for your review! Just to clarify — we promise we’re not running a boot camp or a bedtime enforcement agency! Campers are absolutely welcome to stay up, swap stories, sip something nice, and enjoy the stars. We simply ask for consideration with noise after dark so everyone (including the owls) can get some sleep if they want it.

But if you ever do want a hot cocoa and a bedtime story, we’ll see what we can do!

The no music policy is what attracts many campers and repeat customers - for most are looking for peace and quiet. I like to think that I am running a 'retreat' for those who need to rejuvenate their souls in this frenetic life that we lead. T.

Aimé Very peaceful site. No music allowed. Lovely shower and washing facilities.

Honesty shop. No electric on pitches however a toaster, microwave, hairdryer etc available in a quirky, fun 'cabin'.

Undercover seating area with tables to sit and eat or drink. Fire pits to hire.

The Duck pub just a walk over the field.

Tina and her husband very helpful.

Non aimé The site has hedges and trees around it which is great for wind protection and some shade depending on you're pitched. We missed having a view after a while.

Aimé This is our third time at Brick Kiln so need I say more. Always enjoy it here and would recommend without hesitation.

Aimé Very easy check-in, well-laid out campsite, amazing facilities - great warm showers, two sinks for washing up, a kettle! Loads of stuff to buy if you forgot anything. No kids :)

Depuis le manager: I’ve found real joy in creating a peaceful, adult-only space. It means I can offer a quieter experience and include special touches that I know won’t be accidentally trampled or turned into a den! It’s a different kind of magic — just a little calmer. Thank you for your kind review. T.
