Red House Farm Camping

Setting off for the seaside should be easy from here, whether you fancy some time in arty Aldeburgh (15 minutes’ drive), a stroll along the pier and a brewery tour in Southwold (25 minutes) or trying your luck with a bit of crabbing in Walberswick (20 minutes). Birdwatchers should bring their binoculars along too for a trip to RSPB Minsmere (15 minutes) in search of bitterns, marsh harriers and other water-loving birds. Away from the coast, head inland for a bit to visit Framlingham Castle (15 minutes) to walk around the well-preserved walls and sing a bit of Ed Sheeran (‘Castle on a Hill’ was penned with this place in mind). Orford Castle makes another great outing, as does a walk along the UFO Trail in Rendlesham Forest (both 20 minutes). If you’ve got kids to entertain, a few good options to have up your sleeve include Camel Park Oasis (20 minutes), Africa Alive! animal park (half an hour) and the various rides and shows of Pleasurewood Hills Family Theme Park (40 minutes).
