Date of Visit: September 2024 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Nights stayed: 3 Travelling as:  Retired couple
Reviewer: Lynda Ham 18 reviews from this member

 Great location. Big adventure playground to the side is a little noisy at times and another lodge is being built so there was machinery noise during day.

Plenty of porta cabin type showers and toilets with no heating (a bit tired looking) but there were a couple of showers (a bit tatty) inside a barn.

The site generally was a bit run down with different businesses/activities.

Pitches were open, fairly level grass, nicely mown and spacious with a picnic bench and water/ electric.

Owner was very friendly. £28 p night.

Pretty countryside. Close to ickworth NT, Bury 15 mins, Newmarket 15mins.

 Small friendly site, flat pitches for our tent. Lots of toilets and showers, some indoor facilities and also outdoor. Julie the owner was always about to help with any queries we had, she was great, nothing was too much trouble.

The site felt very safe and perfect for children. Our two grandchildren and their dog came to see us one day and had a great time in the park and playing football with their grandad.

Perfect for walking to the village of Barrow about a mile away, which has two pubs serving good food There are two shops and fish and chip shop.

Easy to get to Bury St Edmunds we went by the country roads, took about ten minutes, there is also a bus service going into bury st Edmunds from Barrow.

Grounds around the Abbey and Cathedral are well worth a visit, plus lots of individual shops to browse. There is an Anglo Saxon village recreated on original site, in West Stow, which is close by.

Countryside views from our tent across the open fields were amazing, especially the sunsets.

Our only dislike was no cover over the outdoor washing facilities, if weather is wet, but never queued to use them, there is one undercover sink in camping hub, though.

We had a great time and would recommend.

Reviewer: RRoberts 18 reviews from this member

 Great little campsite with nice mix of rural rustic charm plus simple activities to keep whole family happy.

We stayed for three nights and made use of the mini golf, escape room and the deep tissue massage (at the gym).

Daughter also enjoyed a horse riding lesson from the stables a few mins walk up the road.

Outside toilets are a bit tired but the outside showers were great - huge shower heads and lots of hot water.

Made use of the firepits.

Chickens roam freely so we had to remain vigilant as our sighthounds were keen to get hold of them especially when they passed our awning.

We were in a motorhome and my sister and family stayed in the pod.

Staff were helpful and friendly.

 Being a small friendly site with rabbits, chickens and a small play and

Swings facility, this is a perfect place to take toddlers and upwards.

Pitches are flat and sizable.

In the village there are two useful store; also a really good playground on the Rec which is just round the corner from the Willows pub.

Reviewer: Vicnel 1 review from this member

 Campsite not as expected, a very muddy track around the site, over flowing bins at the entrance, site seemed quite squashed, pitches smaller than expected, felt like we were joining the next door tent for their tea. And a family playing the same music over and over again, very loudly, didn't even realise the venga boys actually had an album!

Table tennis and other games were a great idea, but being used by the same group of young lads all night.

Toilet facilities were spotless.

 Weather was very wet and windy, pitched up on the access road! Julie was very helpful in setting us up. Lots of walks nearby, 2 dog friendly pubs, 2 village stores, cafe and post office and opposite the church. What more could you want? Well yes, sun!

 The site was really relaxed with really good toilet and shower facilities.

The owners were welcoming and passionate.

The on site bar is well stocked.

There is an American shuffleboard which anyone can play.

The location is perfect for the region attractions.
