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.

Spontaneous bank holiday

Beavis, Amy - 05/09/2026

We booked our bank holiday trip a week before after searching high and low for a last minute pitch. On arrival we were greeted and shown to our corner pitch. Which was huge! All the facilities were great; the shop is reasonably priced for items you may have forgotten or misplaced! In our case, the tent pegs. Snacks and drinks were at a good price too. We enjoyed a drink whilst the children enjoyed the park.The toilets and shower were always so clean and tidy! Which was such a great change from other places we’ve been. On occasions, later on in the evening, there sometimes was a lack of hot water for a shower. We enjoyed using our bikes around the site, and visiting the magpies bakery everyday. We enjoyed our stay here. As we didn’t know the area well, we did use the car a lot to explore.We drove to Felixstowe and South Wold both very nice places offering a different seaside experience.

This is a great site for exploring the Suffolk coast line. The site is clean, spacious and facilities are excellent. You have the shop, dog walking field, the bakery down the road and the play park is winner. Having been two years in a row, it’s highly likely we come back for a third!

Quality site in a great location

Morgan, Paul - 04/09/2026

With friends, we recently enjoyed a first visit to Haw Wood. The website and reviews did not oversell the site, which we found to be excellent.Pitch sizes are very generous. We appreciated the quality of the site facilities, with the toilets and showers cleaned regularly, a decent shop and a great café, which also provided a different form of food offering each evening of our stay.Little touches like draining racks in the dish-washing area were great. Even the piped music was quality, with the tempo/style changing in the evening time.The site offers short walk options around the adjacent fields and the ability to star gaze at night due to low levels of light pollution.The location meant we also enjoyed visits to Southwold, Walberswick and Dunwich, although there were lots more places we could have chosen to visit.We will go back to Haw Wood again for a future stay.

Another great stay

Returning campers staying in one of the meadows. Considered an unserviced pitch but a short distance to the water taps. The meadow gave good protection from the elements on what was a rainy BH weekend. I enjoyed all three theme nights (fish and chips , pizza and Gyros). Facilities well looked after and public spaces regularly cleaned. Friendly staff who are happy to help. My dog loved his trips to the enclosed dog park.

This site continues to be clean, tidy and with everything working. We love the butterfly field and playground. Shop is great and toilets are clean. Lovely big pitches.Our stay was very wet and I wish they would have lifted the ban on fires as it was a bit depressing having the ban on in the rain.I wouldn't go again if fire pits are banned. Recommend lowerstoft and snape maltings for a day out.

Every thing you want for a chilled weekend

Gilmore, Andrea - 04/09/2026

Really enjoyed our 3 night stay. Had fish and chips from the cafe on Friday night. It was ok, seemed frozen but edible for a campsite great. They had different meals on different nights. Saturday was pizza, they look lovely. Breakfast is served and the coffee is a good one. The site was clean, showers and toilets included in this. A lovely touch was a herb garden that you can help yourself tooThe staff were friendly The shop was so well stocked. Dogs are allowed on site but brilliant that they had dog free paddocks. If you have children there is a play parkI would recommend this site
