Staff and Hosts
Pros:
"Friendly welcome from the warden and the owner which was lovely."
"A truly wonderful campsite with good size pitches and friendly and helpful staff."
"Considering the time of year, we had an amazing stay. The owner was very nice and helpful."
"Shortly after arriving we had a warm welcome from Amanda."
"Friendly campsite with friendly hosts."
"The owner and manager both came to introduce themselves and were friendly and helpful with anything you needed."
"The staff were friendly and when we bumped into them we were directed to the Loo's and showers."
"I loved how friendly the staff were and they couldn’t do more for us travelling down as a family."
Cons:
"Management didn't make any attempt to chat or make any conversation. All check in online."
"Having a text during our travel to the site telling us our pitch had moved, we didn't hear or see it, caused some confusion with another couple upon arrival."
"The constant lawn mowing, sit on mower going over and over the same grass and cutting down trees at 9.30am."
Facilities and Cleanliness
Pros:
"Toilets and showers were rustic but clean with lovely hot water."
"The facilities were well-maintained, providing clean restrooms and convenient amenities."
"A great campsite with clean facilities, friendly staff."
"The campsite was very clean, had washing machine area."
"The facilities were also clean and well maintained throughout our stay."
"The showers and toilets are spotless, with a bit of a rustic feel to them. And PLENTY of HOT water!"
"Bathroom facilities were exactly what you'd want and expect on a campsite. Spotlessly clean, functional with the bonus of a super powerful shower!"
"Good clean toilets, and showers, plenty of hot water."
Cons:
"The toilets and showers are awful sadly. They let the site down massively."
"I was not a fan of the toilets. They felt old and did not have enough hand washing points."
"Toilets needed a little tlc - few with dodgy locks which caused some distress for our little children."
"Toilets and washing facilities are adequate but basic."
"Some of the toilet locks don’t work, also as you can see the toilets don’t have sinks inside and are very cramped."
"The showers had more like a dribble, the more people that used the ones nearby at the same time the slower the dribble got."
"The individual showers were more like dribble, the more people that used the ones nearby at the same time the slower the dribble got."
"The Loo's were pretty basic and were not regularly serviced."
Activities and Attractions
Pros:
"Lots to do, including football, mini golf, escape room and next door is an assault course and axe throwing."
"Lots of guests but very spacious, level pitches & didn’t feel at all cramped. Lots to do onsite."
"We did the mini golf and assault course but there was so much more. Archery, axe throwing, airsoft, escape room, gym, and animals."
"The escape room on site was AWESOME (we didn’t escape) but it’s a MUST! The giant games and mini golf was also a big hit!"
"The pod itself was great! Good location and quiet. Most things are a drive away- local shops/parks etc."
"So much to do at and near this campsite! It’s a beautiful area, we explored Bury st Edmunds but also nearby nature reserves."
"There are rabbits and chickens. There is karate school attached to it. But it’s in a nice quiet town, way from main noises and traffic."
"A small quiet site with friendly staff and well marked out pitches. The facilities are best described as a work in progress."
Cons:
"The place did look a little run down in places but we could see improvements are being made."
"The individual showers were more like dribble, the more people that used the ones nearby at the same time the slower the dribble got."
"The site had suffered from adverse weather so facilities were closed. General maintenance appeared poor but that was probably due to being early season."
"Some of the shower/toilet facilities were beyond their best and the floors were spongey and the floor regularly flooded."
"This site is really quiet which is a massive plus and the pitches are really good size!"
"I also cannot express enough how friendly everyone was at helping us settle in, and giving us a fun experience we won’t forget."
"Toilets are functional but need updating. Site doesn't cope well with rain."
"The only thing that could do with modernising would be the toilet facilities."
