CA · 46 units · Tents, Motorhomes
Opening 7 July 2026 - 2 September 2026
Launched in 2026, Walberswick Camping is found in one of Suffolk’s prettiest villages, just 50 yards from one of the UK’s best beaches. Neatly tucked between the River Blythe, sand dunes and the sea, the site offers a splendid mix of beach life and countryside charm… It’s just two hours’ drive from London, 20 minutes from Southwold, and 15 minutes from Aldeburgh. You can also access the pitches across the Blythe via the traditional Southwold ferry.
Set nicely away from the coastal crowds for family holidays, the site has all that you need close by. It’s less than five minutes’ walk from a couple of pubs – one Michelin-starred and serving some of the best food in Suffolk – a deli selling freshly baked bread, pastries and fair-trade coffee, and a playground to keep younger kids happy.
Behind the village is Dunwich Forest, one of the largest wooded areas in the UK, handy for long walks and spotting deer under the peaceful tree canopy. Kids can try crab fishing in the creeks, and you can all go exploring your coastal surroundings or simply relax and admire the sea views from your pitch. As night falls, swap campfire stories – local folklore dictates that a mythical Black Dog haunts these parts… a tale that’s been whispered for generations.

You can spend your evenings staring into a crackling campfire as fire pits are provided and firewood can be purchased on site.

It is tucked away on the outskirts of the pretty Norfolk village of West Dereham. This beautiful rewilding project offers the unspoilt simplicity and tranquillity of wild camping within the grassy clearings of a quiet mixed woodland and balanced with just enough facilities to make camping fun and comfortable including fresh water and compost toilets.
All Rosehip Wood’s pitches are family friendly and allow BBQs and campfires.
Your hosts invite you to wander along mown paths, through grassy clearings and wildflowers. The woodland has been planted with lots of nuts and fruits for both wildlife and humans to enjoy. As the sun sets, unwind, and enjoy starlit skies unspoilt by light pollution against the distant calls and barks of local wildlife.
The site has no lighting so don’t forget your torch if you plan on an evening amble. Downham Market is around 4 ½ miles away offering supermarkets, a market, food and drink in the town’s historic pubs and a range of restaurants. It also has a train station from which your hosts will be happy to pick you up if you are coming camping without a car. If you need an extra tent this can be rented at an extra cost.

How about proper farm activities like tractor rides (ask site staff for details)?
The place to find all this is The Meadow at Waples Mill, an Essex farm site between Chelmsford and Dunmow (and about 15 minutes’ drive from both). This family-friendly site is handy for walks on the Essex Way and other local footpaths, and tractor and trailer rides around the farm are organised on alternate days to give guests a glimpse into agricultural life.
Activities complete for the day, it's time to chill out, and that should be easy here – all pitches have access to toilets and hot showers in a trailer close by, and firepits are provided so you can have a safe campfire (with wood available to buy on site and a great farm shop 10 minutes’ drive away for fireside snacks).
Pitches themselves are large (please note only one tent per pitch is allowed), well kept and well spaced within a meadow that backs onto the River Roding. Dogs are welcome, and there are plenty of places to take them for a walk nearby.
London folk looking for a quick escape to the countryside, this is a place to bear in mind – it’s only about an hour and quarter by road from the city.

Had a lovely Easter Weekend stay in the Bell Tent. Great facilities and the fire pit was very useful for the chilly nights! Great location too, right between Canterbury and Whistable.

Had a great stay here. Found a great spot deep in the tall, pine tree woods. There were a few other people here, but still felt like I had the place to myself.
Was warmly welcomed by Joe on arrival. A super sound guy who explained the lowdown, and looked like he's go out of his way to help out with something you may need or may have forgotten.
All in all, a great spot... in a great spot. Had a great reset during my stay.
I was clinging onto 1 bar of a 4G signal (3network) for my stay. Just the right amount for being connected.
Highly recommended

A small, quiet campsite with clean toilets and shower facilities. Especially liked the family bathrooms for convenience and ease camping with young kids. The campsite had kitchen areas for washing up, shared fridges and charging sockets. An onsite reception sold beverages and snacks. We had a great stay (despite the 40mph winds!) and hope to return in the summer.

A barn with lots of extras. Another with everything campers would need, microwave fridge, just too much to mention. Go and stay , you won’t regret it.!

Absolutely love this campsite , run by lovely people , sell the greatest fresh eggs on earth , the woods are so peaceful, literally feel like I’m on my own in the middle of no where , it’s the most perfect place to unwind , it’s wild camping without actually wild camping , luxury of a handy tap and a toilet. Just love it there ..

Super friendly site - Karen is just lovely, showed us to our pitch even recommending which way to park to get the best view of sunset. Perfect location with 5 min walk to a great pub. Picnic benches on site made eating by the van a breeze. Very clean toilets and showers.
Only very slight suggestion - shower block was very cold (as it’s cold ATM).

Really each to book and if you have any questions prior to booking they are answered very quickly and really friendly too.
Was met on arrival and had a talk through the pitches, found a lovely quiet corner and set up, firewood was brought over later (it’s a very good amount for the price paid - the crate lasted us two days - I’m sure if we were there another night it would have been enough for then also)
The composting toilet was nice and clean and able to clean hands afterwards. Maine water by the car park along with a field you can play games on. There is also a secret enclosure which is a lovely touch and a bug hotel
We enjoyed the back to basic and just being in the moment. Thank you for a lovely stay (and in actual fact if it wasn’t for seeing a little campfire from the other pitches in the evening we felt like we were there all by ourselves

Lovely campsite. Very well run. Quiet location but also close enough to the historic town of Faversham where you have a great selection of pubs and restaurants. Close enough to walk too and very good dog friendly taxis to bring you home.
The local pub is meant to be very good, unfortunately we could get in as fully booked.

We loved our time at these woodlands, very peaceful and unique stay, we didn’t manage to see any animals but that’s just the nature of nature.
Also, Joe was super, we forgot our Braai and he kindly provided us with one to cook with. Definitely will return!

We had a great stay at the Meadow . The site was clean, peaceful, and a lovely place to relax.
Martin, the host, was very friendly and helpful. He made us feel welcome and was always happy to help if we needed anything.
Overall, a really nice campsite and we would happily stay here again.

Booked very short notice for EHU with our new camper van for its first excursion. The site setting was fabulous, we received a warm welcome from the hosts, facilities were immaculately clean and a lovely pub less than a five minute walk serving great food. We’ll definitely be back!

We had such a lovely stay at this magical campsite. The man at reception, Joe, was incredibly helpful and accommodating to us! such a genuinely lovely person and a great welcome when we arrived.
Because it’s still early in the season, we were actually the only ones staying there, which made the experience feel even more special. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and magical all around. ✨🌲
We decided to drive further into the forest with our van and made use of the wood provided by the campsite. It was really good value for the amount we received and made the whole experience even nicer.
There are lots of great walks all around the area, and we left feeling completely relaxed and refreshed , ready to head back to busy London.
Afterwards we visited the nearby UFO landing site and saw the UFO sculpture, which was great fun and literally just around the corner. 🛸👽✨
We would definitely book this site again. 🌲🚐⭐️

Where to go
Dedham
The village that gives the valley its name, Dedham is a popular destination for outdoor adventurers right on the River Stour. From here, several walking and cycling routes take adventurers deep into Constable Country, via landmarks such as the Church of St Mary the Virgin, Castle House, Fern Bridge, and Flatford Mill. Private farmland provides plenty of camping options, while Ardleigh to the south boasts its own caravan site.
Nayland & Wissington
These two villages in the west of Dedham Vale AONB remain off the region’s beaten track, despite their riverside locations and Norman landmarks. Strolling along the Stour’s banks and wildlife-watching from the water are both popular pastimes here, with canoe rental available at area campsites.
Bures & Sudbury
These well-connected towns just west of Dedham Vale offer easy access to both Essex and Suffolk, as well as the Area of Natural Beauty itself, and can be reached in just over an hour from London Liverpool Street. Bikers can explore the rolling cyclepath that connects the two rural towns, while walkers can wander the area’s reserves, woodland, and water meadows. Camping options include wild-style experiences or caravanning at one of the region’s touring parks.
Cattawade, Manningtree & the Suffolk Coast & Heaths AONB
The spot where the River Stour splits is a favourite among outdoor enthusiasts, thanks to its striking views, nature reserves, and waterside campsites. Plus, just a stone’s throw away is the beginning of the Suffolk Coast & Heaths AONB, which stretches up the coastline all the way to Lowestoft. Coastal caravan parks and campgrounds make it easy to tick both AONBs off in one tour.
