About Wildlands
Only 15 minutes from the popular town of Framlingham and 35 minutes from the stunning coastal town of Aldeburgh, this beautiful location is a gem for visitors. It offers over 122 acres of rolling countryside where you can enjoy long, tranquil woodland walks, or simply walk the short distance to the highly rated local pub for a drink and something to eat.
Situated in a stunning wildflower meadow, and surrounded by 122 acres of the site's rewilding and regenerative farming project, this is real wildlife camping. Camping and campervan pitches are set on grass with electric and non-electric options, offering access to all facilities including a children's playground.
All logs for firepits and log burners must be purchased on site. Fire pits will need to be raised off the ground by at least 30cm.
For a more magical escape, opt for the Nest. This cleverly crafted under-mound accommodation is complete with a private hot tub. A stylish, relaxing bolt hole with kitchen/diner, lounge, ensuite bathroom with shower and beautiful views over the meadows.
There are also luxurious log cabins with cosy interiors and a hot tub outside, perfect for a couple or a group of up to six.
Camping pitches are available from April until the end of October. Glamping is available from March until the end of December.

VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass Touring PitchesAug 2023
Absolutely lovely place. Beautiful part of Suffolk. A lot of thought has been given to setting up this campsite and it shows.
My pitch was perfect. Very quiet despite there being children around. I loved it here.
There are a couple of tweaks I think would be helpful. I find myself wondering how larger people manage in the loos. It would be good to find a solution to the green mould beginning to grow on the floor of one shower. It's the kind of thing which puts people off and could get slippy. It may just need going over with a stiff brush every day or so but really not the kind of issue which would put me off going.
Fantastic stay in a beautiful location

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2023
My partner and I enjoyed a wonderful 3-night stay at Kingfishers in Suffolk. Lots of land to explore, walks to enjoy, and wildlife to spot.
Matthew (the site host) greeted us shortly after we arrived, with a booklet featuring info on local walks and attractions.
He was very friendly, had lots of great advice for us during our stay, and was welcoming of any and all questions we had.
The toilet and shower facilities are fantastic. Cleaned daily, these were always smelling fresh and looking good.
There was also a good spread of these around the camp site, meaning that there was never a time where we had to queue up or wait to use a facility.
A particular bonus was the delightful smelling handwash that every sink was provided with.
The area where we pitched out tent was full of lush, green, freshly mowed grass, and each pitch offers a full sized park bench to go with it. Which made cooking and preparing meals etc...much easier.
We would 100% go back to Kingfishers, and hope to book again very soon.
10 out of 10 from us.
