Réponse du gestionnaire : Thanks for taking the time to review our site, and for your great comment. Your right the shower and toilets are basic but a luxury for a wild site, we look forward to seeing you again soon regards JAnene

A aimé : The location (close to RSPB Minsmere) and the site (under trees but with views across the fields). It's a lovely campsite and the owners are lovely people. They go out of their way to make everyone welcome and, when the weather threw everything it had at us, they made sure that we could drive in an out of the site by laying carpet tiles (!) and lit a big fire in one of the fire pits. It's amazing how you get a psychological boost from that in your camper van, even when it's 20 yards away!

N'a pas aimé: The weather, but our hosts couldn't help that and did everything they could to make everyone comfortable despite it.

Réponse du gestionnaire : WE do love a review!!! Thanks so much fort taking the time to review us. It means alot and we are always happy to work on our weeknesses and strengths. The firepits are so relaxing and take you a world away from daily life. Many thanks and hope to see you again Janene & Paul

A aimé : Lovely peaceful woodland setting. Convenient location for the Suffolk coast - Aldeburgh, Southwold etc nearby. A very small family-run site. Exceptionally friendly. I liked the thoughtful details eg corkscrew and tin opener provided by the wash-up area, sanitary products in the loo, and some toys for kids to play with. The owners kindly let us help ourselves to apples and plums from their orchard. Would recommend. Would return.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thankyou so much for your review, the rain did come down!! Appreciate your time taken to place a review Many thanks Janene & Paul

A aimé : The owners of the site were friendly and were happy to help when they were there. Everything was very clean. The location is good for exploring that part of the coast, good for cycling and there are some lovely pubs nearby. If you like sitting around a fire in the evening, there are plenty of fire pits to use.

N'a pas aimé: It was never really quiet. The road is very near so traffic is noticeable. We were there in August so farmers were working (with hay-making vehicles) in adjacent fields until early hours of the morning. The facilities were a bit cramped but they were adequate for the potential number of pitches. The site is in a young woodland, so it can be a bit gloomy, there are no views unless you peer over the hedge. We were in a tent, the surface of the pitch was bare earth, quite compacted. When it rained the water did not soak away quickly, puddles formed, and some surface water seeped into the living area of our tent.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you so much for your review all points duly noted. Unfortunately we can not always be present on site, however we are always there morning and evenings, and always contactable by phone, and never far away, as we do have day jobs also. I hope you had the opportunity to light a fire as they are rather fabulous. To address your dislikes, all i can say is this, we can never determine the date or month or harvest in any way. the campsite is in the countryside, and although by a road, the noise of farm traffic is something beyond our control. Unfortunately yesterday morning 25/8/23 we had a massive down pour of Torrential rain on hard ground so yes puddles will develop quickly and it does not dismiss quickly. We can not fight natures ways. The wood land has been planted since 2000 by the previous owners of the property, the canopy is light and allows for a cool entry on hot days, and yes can be shady, but we advertise we are woodland site. We are saddened to hear that natures ways are not for you, and we sincerely hope that your next stay away camping is something that suits your needs more. Regards Janene & Paul

A aimé : What a beautiful spot! Peaceful, serene, woodland setting with eco friendly amenities. Pitches are a good distance apart and lots of helpful toiletries consumables available to use if you dont have yours to hand. Considerate host and gorgeous sunsets. Loved it! Also firepits made this site really special.

N'a pas aimé: Only gripe was possibly hedge was a bit high so missed a bit of the beautiful view and setting sun. Not much to complain about really!

Réponse du gestionnaire : Such a fab review! thanks so much for taking timeout to comment on our site and for the great photos. The hedge is so annoying... but after last years fires due to the heat, we have to love the view, but safety first at present. Hope to see you again soon. Janene & Paul

A aimé : Good spot for visiting this part of Suffolk, the village and pub are only a short walk, and loads of good footpaths and cycling opportunities. The site is as described, it's basic but well done and we didn't expect any more from it. The hosts were very nice and helpful, I would recommend this site for those looking for a basic but quiet place to stay for a couple of days.
