2 nights at Holistic Woods Campsite WILD

I had a great experience camping in Holistic Wood Camping. It really felt wild camping. As a fan of wild camping, it is a perfect place. There are plenty of hiking routes where you can see old trees and forests. Sam was very helpful and informative who you can talk about various topics.

3 nights at Wardley Hill Campsite

We loved the campsite! It was quiet and rural, and within easy reach of all the lovely beaches of Suffolk. Joe was very welcoming and really helpful wit my lots of recommendations of what to do, good pubs and nice walks. The facilities were basic, but that suited us fine.

Weekend Trip to The Nut Plat Retreat

We had such a lovely stay in the nut plat. The bedroom cabin was clean and cosy and we loved just relaxing, cooking and jumping in the hot tub as soon as the sun went down. We found the hot tub very easy to use with Duncan providing unlimited wood. The first time we lit it, it took a few hours to heat up but it retains its heat well and on the following days needed much less time to be ready. Duncan mostly left us alone but was very welcoming and even posted my speaker back to me which I left in the cabin. Would definitely recommend :)

Weekend Trip to Holistic Woods Campsite WILD

Really beautiful campsite in a lovely area! Everyone there was really helpful!

Weekend Trip to Daisy May’s Farm

Good site. Lovely animals. Coffee. Food. Fires allowed. Terrible shower.

Weekend Trip to Hunstanton Camping & Glamping

Close to beach. Next to the Norfolk Coastal walk. Nigel met us on arrival. Introduced to the dogs and chickens (and spotted a fluffy cat). We loved the relaxed air of the camp field but everything looks like it’s in a state of building or maintenance! Which, to be fair Nigel said they were renovating the barn to accommodate more indoor campers. We had ‘camper van with awning’ as we brought our own bell tent, there were more of this type, one shepherds hut in the same field and at least three other shepherds huts secluded behind the barn. There is the potential for four washing up sinks - only one had water working. Toilet block with three male, three female loos and hand washing. Two showers - also in this block. Side of the barn was also showers and single toilets with two stand alone basins outside. Water points everywhere. We used electric hook up which was good and consistent. WiFi was also working where we were, only used it for the radio though. Some hard standing was a bit dubious with the hard core having glass and pottery mixed in. We brought bicycles and really had to watch where we pushed them. Overall, loved the rustic camp ground, would hope the hard standing would be sorted out soon. Would recommend.

Weekend Trip to Four Winds Camping and Canoeing

Beautifully located , stunning walks into town centre , wild swimming a top must to do if you haven’t tried . Already looking for visit back again

Weekend Trip to Holistic Woods Campsite WILD

It was a pleasure to stay at the holistic campsite. To camp inside a forest is a rare treat. With the bonus of fire pits to use outside the edge also. Sam was a great host. He was very welcoming and informative. I look forward to camping in the warmer weather and hopeful to bring the family too when the shower block is completed.

Weekend Trip to Hunstanton Camping & Glamping

Great location for beach and fantastic walks. Amenities basic, toilets and showers no heating.

1 night at Holistic Woods Campsite WILD

Loved it here. Stayed for 2 nights. Really nice way of camping. Back to basics. 2 choices, in the woods or on the open heathland. No pitches just choose a spot. Spent 2 nights under the stars with a fire going. Perfect. Sam is very friendly and helpful. He will even deliver you some seasoned wood for the fire for a small fee which helps the cause so highly recommend that. A really good idea they have going on so will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Frittenden Orchard

I had a very scenic little spot near the apple orchard. Diane was very helpful with local knowledge of walks to pubs and castles. Very low light pollution for the star gazers out there! I really enjoyed my stay, nice and casual.

Weekend Trip to The Hop Farm

Lovely site can't wait to return. Staff very friendly and helpful. Site has good facilities.

Weekend Trip to Frittenden Orchard

Great stay, was beautiful waking up to the church bells and all different types of birds. The host was fantastic at making sure I knew where to go and where everything was.

1 night at Holistic Woods Campsite WILD

Great camping spot! We were the only people there but Sam was very helpful. Great to be able to camp within the trees.

Weekend Trip to The Nut Plat Retreat

Super space Fabulous hot tub Quiet Great pub a stones throw away means you don’t have to cook if you don’t want to All very organised by Duncan, the flexible owner who really let us be

Weekend Trip to Holistic Woods Campsite WILD

Back to nature! Hard to find a decent woodland to camp, this one's not huge, but it's peaceful and secluded. And the moblie loo was clean. My two pooches had a blast running around.

Weekend Trip to The Nut Plat Retreat

A fantastic cosy, quiet and romantic cabin, perfect for a little weekend getaway. The hosts are super accommodating and responsive but are also very respectful of your privacy. We arrived with both the fireplace inside and the hot tub fire already roaring. A fantastic experience overall would recommend to anyone! And easy enough to access by just public transport if you don't want to drive :))

Weekend Trip to Holistic Woods Campsite WILD

Absolutely live it here. Really beautiful surroundings, no hassle set up. Cant beat a good fire and camping in the woods. Sam is a great host. Really recommend this place.

1 night at Holistic Woods Campsite WILD

I enjoyed the camp at Holistic Woods. It's the second visit for me and both visits have been just what I needed to get away from people, park my motorcycle in nature, light a fire and relax.

3 nights at The Nut Plat Retreat

Came for a short break away from work and degree stress. Planned to go on some nice walks with the dog but the weather was awful. So ended up staying in by the log burner, reading our books and crochet. I did also manage to get the hot tub HOT ♨️ one day, took a few rounds of restocking the fire but once we got there, it then got so hot I had to add some cold! So worth it! There is good WiFi available so manged to watch a few films in the evening. Might be back for one of my reading weeks when I need minimal distractions! 😂

Dog-friendly camping and shepherd’s huts in rural Suffolk

Arguably the jewel in Suffolk's coastal crown, this long-standing seaside resort is a truly classic coastal escape and is a place that has reinvented time and again, from its annual arts festival to its current profile as the Londoners' holiday location of choice. But you needn't buy a million-pound second home to enjoy its wonders. There are ample Suffolk campsites nearby and you can bring your tent and camp near to Aldeburgh at a fraction of the price (it's far more fun too!).

Campsites near Aldeburgh guide

Overview

A bit a bit Aldeburgh

Aldeburgh is perhaps the jewel in Suffolk's coastal crown, a long-standing resort, but one that has reinvented itself cleverly and successfully over the years, from its annual arts festival, the brainchild of local resident Benjamin Britten, to its current profile as Islington-on-Sea for Londoners who don't want to feel too far from home. It's a great place to do not much at all, with a handful of sights in itself, many of them Britten-related, including the church, where the composer is buried, the house where he lived during his final years and Maggi Hambling's controversial clam shell sculpture on the beach, whose charms have divided residents and visitors for years. When you've seen these, browsed the high street shops and strolled the seafront path, you've pretty much done Aldeburgh, but the countryside around is a fab place to go camping for a long weekend away, and the area is a great base for exploring this part of the Suffolk Coast – enjoying the fruits of its small fishing fleet which famously sells their catch from wooden shacks along the stony beach.

About

If you're camping on the Suffolk coast there are few more essential places to visit the Aldeburgh. A popular second-home destination for Londoners, you needn't buy a million-pound second home to enjoy its wonders. There are ample Suffolk campsites nearby and you can bring your tent and camp near to Aldeburgh at a fraction of the price (it's far more fun too!).
