Liked: We stayed in the paddock and I have to say it was an absolutely lovely little site. We don't live far away from Polstead but wanted to get out and use the camper for a night, and I'm so pleased we came across this site. It's very well maintained, toilet and shower area are clean, warm and homely. Lots of information provided on the notice board re local pubs to eat, one being 5 mins walk away and the other longer. Don't make the same mistake we did and walk to the Cock Inn for an afternoon drink pit stop to realise that it was shut until 6pm on the Friday evening (school girl error... I should have read the information properly as it was there in black and white!). Overall lovely place, would definitely visit again for a little one or two night break for sure.
Disliked: Nothing, it was lovely :)

From the manager: Thank you so much Amanda for taking time to leave such a lovely review (and for pointing out how important it is to read the notice board and other info on the park), we really appreciate it and are so happy you had a good stay with us! We look forward to welcoming you back.
