Our bolt hole

My parents found this site prior to Trevor and Trish taking it on. It was the first site we stayed at with our new van. We have been back 3 times so far.The site has been developed very nicely over the years.The kids love it, beach nearby, good fish and chip shop in village.Great location for exploring area.

Peaceful :)

This CL is in the most un-suspecting location....at the end of a No Through Road but of course that lends to to the peace & tranquility of it, you really could be anywhere. Trevor is very friendly and came to our rescue when we were about to leave and discovered the car battery was flat (that's another story!!), he really was a gent. the site is pretty level, we didn't use blocks and has plenty of space around you. Near to the Suffolk Coast with some pretty villages around. We will definitely return here.

Unwind in peace

A very well kept site. Friendly owners and a joy to spend time talking with. The site is well protected on all sides by tall trees that do not block out the sun light. If you are interested in steam traction engines then Trevor the owner is the one to talk to as he has one on site in full working order. A great location for the coast with mile upon mile of walks through lovely flat country side.

Warm and friendly welcome from Trevor and Trish. Lovely clean site and facilities, Plenty of walks from site. Sadly didn't get to see the whole of the traction engine maybe next time? We will definately be back! Andy and Claire and Lexie (Choc Lab)

By far the best yet

We are touring the country for seven months staying on CL's.  By the time we arrived at Briarswood in May we had stayed on eight CL's this year.  Briarswood is by far the best. The facilities are all you would expect of a CL, with the added benefit of loads of space.  What makes it special is the welcome from Trevor and Trisha.  We were with them for a week and it was like parting with long-term friends when we left. During our stay Trevor fired up his traction engine, what a delight. The walking in this area is exceptional.  You can see our walks on our blog www.twodogsandanawning.co.uk

Great stay

Had a great Bank Holiday break. Warm welcome from Trish and Trevor, site is spacious and easy to find. Near to places to see and things to do, good walking around nature reserves, and lots of good pubs. As a special treat, Trevor unveiled his steam traction engine one day, a sight to behold. Highly recommended and will definitely return.

Spacious Site

We stayed here for 9 nights in our caravan in mid May. Trevor & Trish were really welcoming. Loads of space to pitch on this all grass no frills site. All the basics provided as expected. Easy walking from the site to the coast and nature reserves. One word of warning, the approach road is through housing and a primary school which means traffic at either end of the school day will cause problems if you are towing. Outside these times there are no issues. We will no doubt use this site again when we return to the Aldeburgh area.

Our Favourite CL

We have stayed on this CL four times and will visit again and again.  Quiet, peaceful hideaway close to local attractions and walks.  Trevor and Trisha, the site owners, are working hard to improve their property, part of which is devoted to the CL.  Already they have got the recipe right and the environs will only get better as their hard work comes to fruition. WC available and always clean is very welcome.  Recycling encouraged.  Overall an idyllic place to relax - well done and thank you for making our stays so enjoyable we look forward to watching improvements emerge on our future visits.

Great weekend!

My friends and I arrived at this CL with two caravans having previously booked the site by phone. The owners met us and showed us to the pitches that were kept for us having been roped off to stop anyone else using them. Saying this we could have used any other part of the field as there were only two other pitches being used. The site was well kept, open grassland beside a small farm and livery stables. It has a small toilet on site which was always clean and in good order. The owners couldn't have been more helpfull and pleasant. They had to go to a wedding over the weekend but left their adult daughter in charge and she was just as lovelly as the parents. When the owners returned they made a point of coming to see us to make sure we were enjoying our stay. A degree of care that is not always shown on other sites! We visited the local pubs and town which was very pretty and even got to see a great firework display as they enjoyed their centenary celebrations of the Mear. On the day of leaving the owners took the time to say goodbye, opening the gate to see us through safely. (Or was it to make sure we left!) Either way if we get the time to go their way again then a stay at Briarwood farm would suit us all nicely!!

Peace & Tranquility

Looking for somewhere central to the coast line in Suffolk and for a relaxing 2 week break I think we found the ideal spot here. Both 'Trish' & 'Trevor' made us very welcome on arrival. The site is spotless and full credit must go to the pair of them for the work they have put in to male the site presentable. Most of those we spoke to on site told us of the condition the old place used to be in when owned by the previous owner. My wife and I have come away from here feeling totally relaxed and refreshed and ready to get back to face the grand children. We will be back again when our nerves need settling and recharging.
