Why stay here ...

We are an established site in beautiful, rural Suffolk that has been welcoming caravanners for over 40 years. Many of our regular guests would have been greeted by my father when they stayed here with their parents. Now they visit with their own children to enjoy our friendly site again and create new family memories.

Our 0.75 acre site is set on an arable farm and has plenty of land for dogs to run around in. We also have a large unfenced lake that is ideal for coarse fishing. It's a perfect spot for those looking for peace and quiet - but there is plenty for nature and history lovers to see as well!

We have hard standing on site for those who need it, and recycling facilities. The village of Woolpit is well serviced with a church, shops, two public houses and a good bus service. The site has easy access to the A14 and it takes about 15 minutes to drive to the historical town of Bury St Edmunds. The pretty towns of Lavenham and Southwold are also easy to reach by car.

Martin looks forward to welcoming you to his CL.

Lovely Site

We really like this site, having been several times. It is basic with a lovely mown area, lake and accessible amenities. There is a small industrial area next to it but we have never found this a problem. The A14 is close by and there is only very slight noise from... Show more
