Making plans to get away to the countryside? The country views are splendid at Clarks Farm Camping. The well-maintained six-acre grass meadow has views over the Suffolk countryside, as well as fresh running water, toilets and showers. Eggs for breakfast? The site is set on a family-run working farm, so the family can supply you with eggs from their chickens for an additional fee. For other meals, within a 10- to 15-minute drive of the farm, there are handfuls of pubs with good food menus in the local villages, including Long Melford, Wickham St Paul, Clare and Castle Hedingham. The market town of Sudbury is also a 15-minute drive away, with good food venues, theatre shows and boat trips running along the river Stour. If you don’t go anywhere without a furry pal, good news just in – Clarks Farm is dog-friendly. For an extra fee, there is a secure, private dog-walking field at the farm. There are good country walks along the footpaths in the local area.
