Liked: Liked the separate pitches which were spaced out between trees. Good location for walks & to a pub. Quiet after 10pm. Good having a bin & water tap close by.
Disliked: In our area the toilet was a porta loo which had to be pumped to flush and only had cold water to wash hands. Proper toilets were on site not too far, but only two toilets which were occupied on a few occasions. If the toilets and hot running water was better, I’d happily return !

Powered concrete slab site
Liked: Lovely site, which is located in the countryside and is ideal for nice walks. There are ample shower/toilet blocks on the site and there are notices regarding local events, including discount vouchers for the local pub, The Fox. Wifi was available on site. We enjoyed a nice long walk down the lane and into Darsham village, including visiting the local historical church. There is a very well stocked Farm Shop a short distance away, which we visited in the motorhome, 'Emmerdale Farm Shop' which sells a large variety of items, from fresh produce to frozen meals/pastries, ice cream and jams/chutneys, cakes, biscuits, sweets and more. It is located here: IP17 3BP and we definitely recommend it. There is also a cafe serving food next door. We stayed 2 nights at Hill Farm and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Where we were pitched, we could hear some traffic but this was not a problem, as it was very quiet overall, and we slept well both nights. On occasion we could also hear the gentle sound of the local train during the day, which we quite enjoyed, along with the lovely birdsong. Will definitely book again.
Disliked: Nothing.

Powered grass and earth site
Liked: Friendly welcome and help from Jaik. Could chose my own large pitch in secluded glade area. Clean facilities.
Disliked: Not the fault of the site: two campers allowed their dogs off lead one of which followed me and my dog for some distance growllng and barking and whenever we passed her pitch and another whose owner told me it was a recent rescue dog who would go for anyone or any dog it came across. Meanwhile my dogs were permanently on lead. I was anxious that the white dog (no collar or lead) would come up to my pitch. Shame rules can't be upheld.

Liked: My partner & I wanted a long weekend break after a stressful few weeks at work. Jaik has done amazingly well in maintaining a 'back to basics' campsite with a real rural feel - so so relaxing and made it really easy to unwind. Jaik himself is a great host, always easy to reach by text message & actually left us out a firepit for us to have a campfire after I asked. Really generous and responsive person. Our pitch was earth & grass, non-electric, perfect for our 3-person tent with lots of room to spare for our car and campfire. We also had a wooden worktop which was really handy when we were preparing food. We were also not far away from the toilet block, with lovely running hot water and a nice shower. There was also a washing up block stocked with cleaning products and sponges. We had everything we needed. Great location on a quiet farm, we met some other really friendly guests too. Well-situated to National Trust sites (we visited Dunwich Heath and Sutton Hoo) as well as the coast, Saxmundham, and a lovely farm shop. We had an amazing stay and can't fault anything. 100% would return!
