Haw Wood Farm Caravan Park

4.8 (333 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.

Early Spring Break

Haw Wood Farm Caravan Park is a favourite: always faultless; we take our bikes exploring Dunwich, Walberswick, Southwold, Aldeburgh, Dunwich Heath + Minsmere Nature Reserve - finding excellent local pubs like The Fox Inn (Darsham) + The Eels Foot Inn (Eastbridge). Don't miss the best English Breakfast @TwoMagpiesBakery after checking out.

Great Caravan Park

Knowles, Karl - 01/05/2025

My partner and I stayed here for a weekend with our grandson. The arrivals process was simple and the hard standing pitch we chose was immaculate. The facilities on the site are excellent; particularly the toilet and shower block which is immaculate. The shop stocks a good range of items which are very well priced. The staff were very pleasant and made us feel very welcome. Overall I have no hesitation coming back.

Lovely big plots, and rural

Very much enjoyed our stay, although not enough loo/showers were open at the time, and my husband had to return to the caravan on two occasions to use the not so great facilities that we have. Otherwise, lovely to have a decent dog walking field, and a great base for exploring the heathlands and coast.

Haven't been anywhere else in 6 years!

Hood, Laura - 28/04/2025

We've been coming here for at least 6 years. First in a tent and now in our caravan. Its a fabulous site. Spacious pitches, dog walking field, lovely play park, modern & clean facilities and a shop/cafe on site too. Ran by a lovely family.Its just the right size to let your kids go off and play without having to worry about them. Its a registered Dark Sky site so fab to just sit & watch the stars on a clear night.Every family we've met on the site have been pleasant which enhances the stay.10 mins away from Southwold where we spend a lot of time on the beach & the shops. 4 miles from Halesworth for pharmacy, co-op, spar and takeaways. Saxmundham a lovely town to visit for bigger Tesco if needed.Fab bakery at the entrance on A12 which sells the most amazing products.We struggle to find anywhere else because we're always comparing to this site ha ha! Looking forward to our next 2-3 stays already booked for this year!

Such a fantastic site!!!

Cox, Gemma - 26/04/2025

We love staying at Haw Wood Farm! All the facilities are fantastic. The play park has a little for every age and the cafe/shop has a get selection including the lovely breakfasts. The food nights they put on arr an extra bonus. Both the hard standing (direct water and waste) and electric grass pitches are level and are large pitches. All the bathrooms are kept very clean and the grounds are well kept. The park is situated in a great spot with fishing, clay shooting, archery close by, country walks surround the park and is a short drive to some lovely suffolk towns and beaches. Not forgetting, the staff/owners couldn't be nicer and more helpful. We will be returning soon!
