About the site
If you are searching for peace and quiet, this family friendly site is an ideal spot to unwind. Just a 20 minute drive from the glorious Suffolk Coast, spend days out swimming and sunbathing and evenings wildlife spotting and admiring the sunset from the wildflower meadows. Conscientiously mown into the long grass, the site offers 16 individual non electric tent pitches, within three separate meadows connected via weaving pathways and surrounded by hedgerows and mature trees. Each pitch even comes with its own fire pit for guests to enjoy. The Nature's Way is the most secluded area of the site, furthest from reception but great for those looking for an escape, with just four pitches. This field is great for those after some peace and seculsion! Clover's Corner is a two acre meadow and is arguably the most central, just a 100m walk from everything you need onsite. This meadow is great for families and has four pitches. While Meadow Rise is a four acre meadow with eight pitches. The undulating curves mean it offers some of the most sheltered pitches along with amazing views! There truly is something to suit campers of all persuasions. Let children lose themselves among the thick grasses, playing hide and seek on the pathways and enjoy spotting all the wildlife that call this site home! Cars must also be parked off the field in the sunken car park out of sight, and trolleys are provided to transport belongings to the pitch. For those after dinner al fresco, BBQs and campfires are also welcome onsite, perfect for that traditional camping experience. The site also sells kiln-dried sustainably sourced split logs. Please note, this is pet free site.
Birds and Bees Campsite is open from 16/05 to 06/09.

Birds & Bees is perfect for anyone wanting to give solo camping a go. I'd been camping with my friends and family but never alone and felt safe and well looked after (but not hassled) the whole time. Facilities are great, fridge/freezer, kitchen area with microwave, kettle and even charging docs for phones etc. I kept things basic for my stay but you have the choice if you didn't want to live off tinned food all week! Toilets and showers clean and tidy. Even had an eco friendly tree bog which was helpful in the middle of the night! Lovely peaceful site, on the first night I had the whole place to myself then joined by another couple of campers but still was able to keep to ourselves. The site was about 20 minutes/half hour to a lot of places I wanted to visit so perfect location for me. Sutton Hoo, Rendlesham Forest, and Woodbridge all great places to explore. Extremely happy with this little place and all it has to offer, will definitely come back again when next exploring the area.
Fantastic campsite
