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.

Access is a bit narrow at first ,but it's ok , only a short distance to drive and hardly used , mainly being used haw woods , when we arrived we was welcomed by the very friendly and smiley site staff who gave us our information sheet and took us to our pitch .great service.

Spacious pitches, so clean and tidy

Wright, Nige - 11/07/2026

We stayed on a non electric pitch in our motorhome which was very spacious. The weather was stunning, and because of this didn’t erect our awning. Had we done I would have been very disappointed as there was a massive slope which would have made it impossible and unusable space.Stunning shower blocks, but the temperature is random with others using it and pressure wasn’t enough

Such a wonderful escape

Our first camping break for nearly 2 years. We missed it we needed it and it had to deliver. And deliver it did - some of the biggest pitches I've ever come across in a secluded hedge-lined field.The welcome was as warm as the weather and the fact the June's heat record for the UK was st a couple of miles away gives you an idea. In addition to the large pitches the facilities blew me away. Fresh-cut flowers in the male shower block? I kid you not.Plentiful hot water and an inside laundry and washing station were very welcome.Complete tranquility since there are no onside bars or club house/entertainment were the order of the day and exactly what we were after.The site is easy to find just off the A12 so no country lane navigation which means there is no issue about getting out and about.For us as a couple it was perfect for a short break and I would definitely come back again for this.Thank you for memorable relaxing stay. Loved it
