Perched on the Suffolk Heritage Coast, Dunwich campsites open up nature reserves and glorious shingle beaches beside the east coast, reminiscent of bucket and spade holidays. But Dunwich is worthy of attention all by itself, thanks to a reputation as England's lost city and impressive history. It was once head of a kingdom and was almost lost to the crashing sea. Give your pooch a race at Dunwich Heath, or meet friendly critters at RSPB Minsmere.
