  • Scenic, back to basics site on the outskirts of Ipswich
  • A 15-minute drive to the Suffolk coast; 20 minutes to Sutton Hoo
  • A 10-minute drive from the town centre for shops; dog-friendly
Aiming to bag a bargain place to stay in Ipswich? Perhaps looking to mix up a fresh-air break with some town time? Either way, Trinity Park Camping makes a fine choice for an outdoor break – this parkland site may be most famous for being the location of the annual Suffolk Show, but it’s a fab spot to settle in at any time for breaks that combine town, country and coast time. The location is a real winner here: a 10-minute drive from either the A12 or A14 brings you to this site on the outskirts of Ipswich; it’ll also take you about 10 minutes to get into the town centre if you need shops, restaurants or other urban amenities. Turn your sights in a different direction and you can get to the Suffolk coast in about 15 minutes or head for historic Sutton Hoo in about 20 minutes.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: The location was perfect and we had a great weekend thank you, only 2 minor problems I found was that it seemed we set up on a ants nest lol ( NOT YOUR FAULT) and only 1 of the 3 showers in the gents worked on the first night but was corrected the next morning. Other than that Sarah Jay met us on arrival she was amazing so thank you..... we had everything we wanted all very close, so on the whole excellent service and campsite would recommend to everyone and we will definitely stay again so thank you.

Local attractions

Starting off in Ipswich? The riverside town has a lovely waterfront to explore, a couple of great theatres and some intriguing museums (the collection of old vehicles at the Museum of Transport is a perennial favourite with all ages). To the coast next perhaps? It’s a 15-minute drive to Felixstowe beach, or around 35 minutes to either Aldeburgh or Thorpeness. The excellent pier at Southwold is 45 minutes away, as is Walberswick, a popular spot for crabbing. You may be able to take paddles or swims from any of these, but for more extensive watersports you’ll want to head to Alton Water (20 minutes’ drive). For history-themed ambles, try the likes of the Anglo-Saxon Sutton Hoo (20 minutes), 12th-century Framlingham Castle (half an hour) and the splendid rotunda at Ickworth House (45 minutes). If the kids prefer animal encounters, make a trip to Jimmy’s Farm & Wildlife Park (15 minutes), Easton Farm Park (25 minutes) or the big beasts of Africa Alive! (an hour).
