 Site was lovely, very peaceful.

Adequate shower and toilet facilities.

Plenty of dog walking areas within the campsite.

Owners were very nice and friendly. Odell was helpful telling us about places to visit.

Would definitely stay here again. Mark& Julie from sidcup Kent.

 We are a Dutch family and camp a lot in various countries with our touring caravan. Great campsite with lovely owners and easy going.

If you are looking for an informal campsite, with the basic needs (no camping shop etc), nice view this is a very good place to stay.

The first impression of the entrance might fool you a bit but the gem is in the back side of the property. Sanitary is clean. Taking showers with tokens worked fine for us.

The costs of camping are most reasonable.

We planned to stay for just about 2 nights en then move further. We changed plans and stayed for 6 nights, moved then to the Cotswolds (which was the original plan) en then came back because we liked it very much over here.

We appreciated your suggestion of locations to visit. And they were absolutely nice places like Lavenham, Long Melford (nice halls) etc.

Thank you for your hospitality. You were very kind and gave us a warm welcome. We hope to come back next year.

 Stayed for a couple of nights, very wet which we were advised. With his gator I never would have got the van on the pitch. Used motormover to get it off.

Basic facilities.

Surrounding trees could do with a little tidying but it is the beginning of the season.

Nice walks and a pub 40 mins walk away, but check if it is open as it was closed Sat and only opened between 4pm and 7pm on Sunday when we were there!

 Lovely site with well kept grass.

Great hosts and great value.

Only one criticism is that the entrance to the site could do with a tidy up as it doesn’t look very inviting

 Very well kept site. I had choice of pitches and had a south facing, so enjoyed the sun.

I have a dog and appreciated the well cut walks around the fields.

Will definitely stay again.

 This was our second visit to Brighthouse.

The owners are very friendly, welcoming and accommodating, and have provided plenty of 'bathroom' facilities for those who don't have/use their own.

There's plenty of land for good dog-walks, and a path across the farm into the village, for the local pub.

A great base for visiting Long Melford, Clare, Lavenham, Bury St Edmunds, Sudbury, etc.

 What a lovely stay myself and young son had a this campsite.

Fantastic views over farmland.

Lovely grass site. Pitches not actually marked out so feels very relaxed.

Toilet and shower areas very clean.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back very soon as this was tester trip for my son and thankfully he loved it!

 Ross and Odel were very hospitable and caring. When we arrived at the campsite Ross showed us around and showed us several areas with electric hook ups. We then choose where to pitch.

The campsite is kept in very good order with lovely scenery.

Unfortunately we camped the night that 7cm of rain fell in 1 hour and ended up with a leaky tent, which cut our stay short.

We would like to come back again as this was such a lovely relaxed campsite. Next time though we hope for dryer weather.

 Beautiful surroundings, lovely flat pitches and well mowed grass. Friendly site owners, pub is about half an hour walk away across the fields and then along a pavement.

Check it's open before you set off as we had an wasted hour round trip when we found it wasn't open on a Saturday lunchtime.

Local shop doesn't seem to exist anymore so you really need a car if you run out of provisions.

Toilets and showers are fairly basic and a little grubby/mouldy in places. Washing up area very basic, with 2 sinks in a dark, dirty indoor room that has so much more potential. Showers are £1. 50/token.

If you don't mind back to basics camping and can deal with a bit of grubbiness this is a lovely area of the countryside in which to base yourself.
