Haw Wood Farm Caravan Park

4.7 (311 reviews)

Conveniently close to the A12 and just 4 miles from the beautiful Suffolk Coast, Haw Wood Farm is an award-winning, family-run holiday park set in the market town of Saxmundham. Just a stone's throw from woodlands, heaths, quaint villages, bike routes and walking paths, the site is surrounded by stunning open countryside. Everything you could want for a well earned break is right on your doorstep.

Spanning 14 acres, this AA 5 Gold Pennant site is based close to the gorgeous Suffolk Coast and has garnered a string of prestigious awards over the years. These include David Bellamy Gold Awards for conservation and a place in Practical Caravaners' 'Top 100' campsites in the country—testaments to its excellence and popularity among guests.

The site offers a great range of pitches, catering to motorhomes, campervans, caravans, and tents. From fully serviced hardstanding pitches to grass serviced pitches and standard pitches, Haw Wood Farm Caravan Park provides a variety of options to suit every camper's preference. The commitment to harmonising with nature is evident in the adjacent Wild Flower and Young Woodland Walk, inviting visitors to indulge in peaceful strolls amidst the beauty of native flora and fauna.

One of the standout features of Haw Wood Farm is its meticulously maintained amenities. A 2022 refurbishment project resulted in Platinum Award-winning bathrooms that boast underfloor heating for comfort during cooler evenings and winter months. The facilities include shower and toilet rooms with hand dryers, hair dryers, and full-length mirrors. Families can make use of the self-contained family bathrooms, complete with shower, toilet, sink, and baby change units, while an accessible shower room caters to wheelchair users.

The wash up and laundry facility in the main building offers convenience with large sinks for washing up, a freezer for ice, and washing machines and tumble dryers, enabling campers to pack lighter and stay longer. The on-site shop is well-stocked and reasonably priced, providing everything from daily essentials to camping equipment and local products.

For those who prefer to let someone else do the cooking, the on-site cafe welcomes guests with a variety of options. The menu, especially extended during the summer, offers vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free alternatives, ensuring a diverse and inclusive dining experience.

Families with well-behaved dogs are welcomed at Haw Wood Farm. While on a lead around the park, dogs can enjoy freedom in a large grazing meadow, which provides a space for them to stretch their legs and play freely. The highlight for many children is the playground, where diverse equipment and a fun atmosphere create lasting memories and foster new friendships.

Haw Wood Farm's commitment to environmental sustainability is evident in its use of a biomass boiler to heat all hot water on-site. The boiler is fuelled by wood chips collected from the Hinton Estate, showcasing the site's dedication to eco-friendly practices.

Beyond the Park, Haw Wood Farm offers proximity to memorable family days out. The stunning Dunwich Beach, just 4 miles away, provides a picturesque coastal escape accessible by a short drive. Minsmere, recognized as one of the best birdwatching sites in Britain, sits a mere 5 miles from Haw Wood Farm, offering nature trails and birdwatching hides for enthusiasts and families alike.

A lovely campsite so clean and great sized pitches , shop an added extra and the cafe , toilets a bit of a walk when you desperately need the toilet but so clean . The family bathrooms are amazing and you can use when families are not using them , love the music in all the facilities too so relaxing .This is just missing a swimming pool for the very hot weather

Plenty of space

Rowe, Morna - 02/07/2026

Very friendly welcome. It was a very hot week and our caravan fridge had broken when we arrived. Site owners very helpful in giving us details of repairers they knew about, but sadly none was available to come and take a look while we were there. They also kindly put our dog's frozen food in their own freezers. The Two Magpies bakery at the end of the lane was a disastrous attraction 😂. We had chosen a fully serviced pitch was probably the furthest possible from the chemical waste point! But it was a good pitch and we'd probably choose it again. Off-lead dog field was a success.

Good base for visits to Southwold and Walberswick. Very friendly and welcoming staff and even a welcome from the resident chicken. We went to the Fox for dinner one night and a really lovely place to eat and terrific food. We couldn't fault anything.

Lovely clean and well thought out site

Mills, Louise - 26/06/2026

Its a great site to take a dog with you as it has a separate area for them to be walked on. We stayed when the vast majority of pitches were in use but never experienced any problems with toilet or shower availability ( which were also spotless). There is also a little area for washing up and a freezer for your ice blocks, with the offer to borrow the sites whilst yours freeze. The site settles down in the evening so its ideal for those who don't want to party all night or listen to others doing so. Dunwich beach is a few miles down the road and has a busy Cafe, High Lodge is just at the end of the drive as is a rather nice bakery.
