Beautiful relaxing site This campsite is beautifully designed and maintained. I love everything about it. From the wide open spaces, amazing hot showers, hot water bottles and blankets to use. A hidden gem that I was lucky to find. On arrival I was in need of rest and recuperation. This site enables you to digitally detox and be at one with nature. Customers and treated respectfully and the ethos of honesty and trust are a refreshing bonus. Lovely spaces to roam and facilities to use. Even the handsoap is amazing! The honesty shop is well stocked. Attention to detail throughout and immaculately clean. I cant wait to return. My favourite find was the little seat (Joe's place) Thank you Lenny and Jen. See you soon for sure!

Newbourne Woodland Campsite, Suffolk Thank you to Jenny for a beautiful, peaceful break in Newbourne, Suffolk. The campsite is very well maintained, with clean amenities (showers/toilets are great). We loved the quiet break outdoors and a benefit is that it is adults only so it’s perfect for couples/friends! The on site mini shop is fantastic for easy/quick buys of food and drink. Many countryside walks and activities to do nearby. Would highly recommend and we would come back, especially in summertime! :) Ozzy and WVWl

Hands down best campsite This is an absolute gem of a camp site. Truly special in that it has a superb relaxed vibe, without attracting hoards of 'relaxed' (i.e. noisy) people. I came back feeling relaxed and refreshed. I actually stayed July 2017 but forgot to leave a review at that time and having just been camping at the weekend I was reminded that I need to go back here! We fell asleep really early (quiet time after 10pm) and slept in until about 11am.... that says it all. No screaming children. No children full stop. No loud groups of adults. Camped in the shade of the forest. BLISS The attention to detail the owners have put into the site is incredible. - Friendly welcome -The shower and toilet blocks are like boutique hotel facilities they are so good! Great style, lots of hot water and they are clean and lovely. - Covered area you can use to sit / cook if the weather is bad. - Freezer for refreezing your ice blocks. - Little touches like a stack of blankets so you can grab an extra one if you're cold, and bug spray available You can choose your pitch and go for grass pitch or woodland which I loved, we went for the edge of the forest and there was a wood table and chairs next to the pitch we used to eat at. Plenty of flat ground. I think you can have a fire pit but we didn't bother. The local area is great - lots of walks or bike rides and an easy hop in the car to tourist sites. We actually didn't do as much as we intended to do because the campsite was so relaxing! For me, it is a bonus that cars are not allowed on the pitches. I hate camping with cars driving around the tent and ruining the view. You can get pretty close, and there are wheelbarrows available to move your stuff. Overall this is a 6* luxury camping experience and I hope it doesn't get too popular before I get back! ;-)

What a gem I recently stayed in the Kingfisher Cabin which is located in the Newbourne Woodland Campsite. The cabin itself was very well put together. The kitchen and bathroom facilities were modern and had everything we needed to self cater (except maybe a toaster but the grill served us well!) The campsite was absolutely lovely and Larry and Jen made us feel very welcome. I would thoroughly recommend the campsite and also the Kingfisher cabin if you didn't fancy camping.

peaceful get away! We recently stayed in the kingfisher cabin which was a relaxing stay. The owner has thought of everything to ensure your stay is to good standard. I loved the fact she had a information hut on the site with all the places to go visit of days out, near by pubs and local shops and cafe so that you Have plenty to do during your stay. We visited a fort that was only a 15minute drive away and it was a lovely day out. I would definitely reccommend this place for anyway who is looking for a relaxing get away as itt was just lovely to be in the country away from everything.

Felt a bit pricy when booking but once on site realised we were at a triple A facility and worth every penny! Very well run site with a variety of secluded and open spaces to pitch. Toilet block modern and immaculate and the little honesty shop was well stocked with everything we needed to supplement our own supplies. The wheel barrows to haul your camping gear from the car park, the multiple drinking water points , the fridge and charging points and the many picnic benches were really handy and we loved the elephants (see photos)!

Beautiful Cabin in the Woods This is the 2nd time my Husband and I have visited this lovely site. We went last month for a whole week of relaxation. Whilst we were there we watched with interest a lovely cabin being built and decided then and there we would be back once it was finished. We have been watching Newbournes Facebook site avidly and we're delighted to discover the cabin was free this weekend. Newbourne is an Adults only Camping site with pitches in the wooded area and also on grass. We loved the idea that we would not be disturbed by boisterous children. You are allowed to have a fire in one of the provided fire pits and there are free BBQs to use as well. You can bring your own wood or pay a reasonable £5 for a crate of Firewood. The Shower block is Beautiful with plenty of hot water free of charge.There are blankets and sleeping bags to use in case you forget yours and Mosi spray to use after your shower. Opposite the shower block there is a beautiful area called the Elephant Shed which has fridges and a freezer to store all of your fresh food. There is a phone charger in this area where for £1 you can charge your phone. There are also tables and chairs a BBQ and a Heater for cold days. We camped last time and loved lying in our tent listening to the birds and wildlife. So let me Describe the Cabin it is one of 2. Ours was Called the Cherry Tree and is painted a Pale Green colour. It has a lovely large wood decked area to sit out and enjoy the Beautiful View. There is a BBQ and a brick built fire pit. Inside the Cabin are 2 Single Beds. They were pushed together for us though. You have to provide your own bedding and pillows but that's no problem. There is Crockery ,Cutlery and Glasses provided for use with the BBQ. We brought our cooker and camping kitchen with us and it was a lovely home from home. The cabin is very tranquil and furnished beautifully as you can see from my photos. I would recommend this wholeheartedly to anyone who likes the idea of camping but doesn't wish to sleep in a tent.

A weekend with nature. Decided to book this campsite because it is dog friendly and liked the idea of camping in the woods and so glad we did. We arrived mid afternoon on Friday and signed in in the information office, grabbed a wheelbarrow and headed into the woods with our tent etc. There's quite a few small clearings in between the pine trees and we soon found one free, even had a water tap. After setting up camp and having a few cold beers we had a little wonder around and everyone seemed very friendly. The shower block and toilets are probably the best I've seen on a campsite anywhere. Nice covered communal area too with fridges and freezer and also power to charge your phone ( not that there's much reception, which is good). We walked to the local pub for dinner and a drink on both evenings with Otis our lab. Saturday we went to old Felixstowe and spent some of the day on the beach. It's only a few miles from the campsite. Sunday we packed up quite early as the forecast was'nt good so unfortunately we had gone by 10 am but we did find 3 natterjack toads had set up camp under our tent! Can't recommend Newbourne Woodland Campsite enough. Thanks to Jen and her husband. Hopefully we'll be back soon. Andrew, Gail & Otis Cunningham.

Fabulous campsite in the heart of Suffolk If you are looking for a quiet site (very few pitches, no children) then this is absolutely fabulous. Despite only allowing a few tents it is a big site with plenty of room. There is camping either in the field or in the woods, and if you don't fancy canvas then there are two cottages. The facilities were vey well presented and immaculately clean with extra touches like a handy little shop, plenty of (homemade) charcoal to buy and barbecues to borrow. Many of the pitches also have fire pits, again with wood available to buy. The proprietors are friendly and approachable and as well as a lovely site have provided lots of information about the local area - I would give this 6 out of 5 if I could.

Absolutely love it here. Such a great setup in such beautiful place. I've been and stayed in one of the lodges of my girlfriend and dog. The area immediately around the lodge was secure for a dog. Plus he could go off the lead outside of that with other dogs that were nearby so it was lovely and friendly. The little shop is great and the owners Jen and Larry are amazing people. We are really well with them. Looking forward to going back again

Loved this campsite. We’re cycling on tour and so good to have a campsite that isn’t a giant car park. Cars and vehicles are provided with wheelbarrows to carry their gear to the camping area. Makes the area so much more enjoyable without people driving around where your sleeping. Get some exercise too. I’m always amazed how much junk people take camping with them. Site toilet Bloch is wonderful and new spacious ,clean ,well appointed . We had a fire pit and camped near the woods and had the place pretty much to ourselves. Used one of the dinning tables dotted about. Owner was very helpful and relaxed.

Lovely quiet and well presented campsite. Good quality shower/toilet facilities, and the availability of blankets & hot water bottles to borrow was a very nice touch on a chilly night, as we were touring on a tandem and travelling light. Free loan of bbq & firepits (just pay for your charcoal etc) was also a bonus along with a well stocked shop on site. Would definitely recommend and will return.

There’s nothing not to love about this place The reviews really aren’t wrong, this place is special. It’s a beautiful setting with generous pitches. The shower block is the best I’ve seen on a campsite - the posh hand wash is a lovely touch. An on-site shop if you forget something, and Jen is a great host - super quick to reply to emails and available if you need to contact her during the stay. Remember to bring bug spray if you tend to get bitten, and I’d definitely suggest ear plugs at this time of year - the dawn chorus really gets going at about 5am. The one thing I was apprehensive about was not being able to listen to some music (as I have it on pretty much all the time at home), but I really didn’t miss it. The fire, star-lit skies and sound of owls calling made for the perfect evening. In short, everything is really well thought out to set you up for a relaxing stay. If you want some peace and quiet, then I’m sure you’ll love it. We’ll certainly be back.

Highly recommended! Me and a friend have just returned from a 3 night stay at Newbourne Woodland Campsite, and it was by far the best camp site we've been to! We were welcomed upon arrival by Jen and beautiful Barney the resident dog! They have thought of absolutely everything on site, from the elephant shed where campers can chill out together in front of a fire, to the phone charging point, to the free fire pits and barbeques! The toilet block is amazing too, it's a real touch of luxury which is always nice when camping! (especially when it rains and you're covered in mud!). The owners have even included little extras like bug spray, sting cream and boxes of blankets and sleeping bags if you've forgotten yours or you're chilly! We brought my dog along which I highly recommend doing as the area is so dog friendly (make sure to go to Sizewell Beach with your canine friend if you get the chance!) she loved camping and playing with Barney. The site is adults only which was excellent as it was always so peaceful and everybody was so friendly, and no screaming kids! Yay! I definitely recommend this camp site to everyone - I cannot fault it in any way. If you don't chose to visit you are missing out!

Stress Buster Wonderful campsite to get away from the world. Choice of woodland glade or pasture field limited to twenty pitches so plenty of space. Have fire pits and BBQ's available. No electric and very limited phone signal makes this the perfect hideaway. Toilets/shower where top class. Need to wheel barrow equipment to pitch but no more than 100-150 yards! Lots of local info available. No kids aloud or big groups so make it very quiet. With lots of background bird call. Great for short break.

Simply the best woodland campsite! Wow! What a fantastic place! The owners are such lovely people, and they have thought of absolutely everything here. It is dog-friendly, and there were no little children. Once arrived, you can walk about and choose where you want to pitch your tent. The fire pits, barbecues and logs are plentiful. The toilets and showers are better than some hotels and restaurants! There is even "posh" soap and hand cream in the ladies' - as well as a kettle and a hairdryer! There is a covered outside area with a barbecue, fridge/freezer and phone charging point. They also have a small shop on site. It is the best campsite I have been to in this country (and better than several I have been to in France.) We will definitely be returning!

Jay and Asia's 1st anniversary ! 31st AUG 2013 Fantastic, Me and my wife enjoyed our 1st anniversary here ! Greeted by the lovely owners Jen and Larry upon arrival, Made to feel very welcome. Just happened to be evening entertainment the weekend we decided to visit. 4 local guys on acoustic guitars singing classic songs on a trailer late into the night whilst the drinks were flowing, great vibes all around. Half an hour from our front door but felt a million miles away from home.Everything is in close proximity, Accessible parking, a separate field area and lovely pitches for tents, use of wheelbarrows to help get all your camping gear to and from your cars. Great block with showers and great washing up facilities. Proper camping with the option of a shower basically. Lots of lovely farm shops nearby where you can purchase local food and drink to prepare whilst camping and a pub not too far away. Log burners and bbq's to borrow and lots of charcoal and firewood reasonably priced. Every little angle is covered and pre-planned with this site and is a real hidden gem. If you are looking for adult only camping this place will be ideal ! Will definatly be going again.

A choice of woodland or field, excellent showers (I mean really excellent). fire pits, bbqs, phone charging point, fridge and freezer. Quiet and peaceful. A good little information cabin and a camp shop for essentials. Jen was very friendly and helpful but unobtrusive. I would definitely recommend this site!

Also, the toilet block is one of the nicest I have ever experienced! We didn't take advantage of this but extra blankets and pillows are available should you have forgot any - such a nice gesture. Not a far walk to the farm shop and the local pub which is really warm and welcoming. Will definitely camp here again next summer and will bring our friends!

The best! Quite possibly the best campsite we've ever been to. You can either set up in the open areas or, like us, in the woodland. You can pitch wherever you like, but in order to have an open fire you have to pitch a little way down from the top of the campsite, but that doesn't limit you. Excellent toilet and shower block which is clean and airy. The site is dog friendly and adult only which is great for a peaceful retreat! Great place!

a camping treasure, gem of a place, away from it all and with excellent facilities This is an wonderful destination. Easily accessible, yet when you get there a haven of peace and tranquility. It's wonderful to camp and know that you won't be surrounded by caravans and campervans as big as small houses, no vehicles, no noise, no pollution. A vast site, but the policy of restricting the numbers means that it is never crowded. With this comes a modern and scrupulously clean toilet bock, a freezer and a fridge and a place to charge electical equipment. What else can you possibly want. We're in danger of always choosing to go there, other sites never reach the same level of satisfaction.

luxurious peaceful bliss! We stayed in their Kingfisher Cabin for 3 nights with our dog. The owner Jen couldn't have been more wonderful, she'd thought of everything, torches, dog poo bags, information on dog friendly beaches and beautiful walks, bug spray and even antihistamine cream! Upon arrival we found a welcome basket with bread, butter, Jam, milk and tomatoes. There was even a bag of ice in the freezer. This is an adults only campsite, with only 25 pitches, some of which are in woodland. The shower and toilet block were totally luxurious and there was also another little cabin which could be rented. This is highly recommended and we will definitely be returning.

Peaceful camping We chose this campsite as it was dog friendly, allowed campfires and was adults only. This campsite is small, and not over crammed, so it is very peaceful, you have the choice of an open field area or the wooded area, we chose the wooded area which was perfect to escape the hot sun with our dog. The toilets/showers/washing up facilities are brilliant, clean, critter free and well looked after, some of the best we have seen, the extra touches are great such as mozzie spray, blankets etc. Also there is an information hut which has some lovely walks to do. Fires can be lit in the firepits which are free to use and wood is £5 a crate, we only used one crate over 2 nights. My only very small criticism is that there is no shop which can be handy for the basics, other than that we loved it and would definitely come back

A real hidden gem! What a beautiful little campsite! From the warm welcome by the friendly owners to the excellent shower & toilet facilities this really is one of the best sites I've stayed on. Although we only stayed one night therefore didn't take advantage of the free fire pit or barbecue we certainly will next time we visit. Pitches feel secluded due to the woodland setting and as an adults only site it's perfect for some quiet down time. Really looking forward to going back :)

Shhhh.... keep it to yourself! This was our third visit to the wonderful Newbourne Woodland campsite. We stayed in Kingfisher Cabin, which is an amazing glamping habitat. Jen and Larry (the owners) have thought of everything, down to the tiniest detail. They'd even ordered fabulous weather for the bank holiday so that we could sit on the new decking over the lake and read our books, that's if we weren't watching the family of ducks sploshing around or seeking the elusive kingfisher. It's relatively private and secluded, just the odd tent in sight. There's a real toilet...(glampers will understand the term 'real', being added!), along with a lovely hot shower. The kitchen is well equipped, a fridge with ice box, cooker, microwave and kettle. I challenge you to want for anything, pots and pans, cutlery and utensils, tea, coffee, oil and seasoning, scales and jugs, pretty little egg cups (which I insisted in using on our last morning despite the fact my husband doesn't even like boiled eggs! The lounge area has books and scrabble, along with a new addition, a tv/dvd player. There are plenty of blankets and a wood burning stove to keep you cosy, along with electric heaters if the great British weather decides to frown upon you. On the large decked area there's a BBQ with utensils in the dining area to the front of the cabin. Beyond the decking there is also a fire pit, which the visiting pheasants seemed quite curious about. Supplies had been .... ummmm....supplied!, special offerings of milk, eggs, tomatoes, jam, chocolates, wine, bread and butter. Our dog was as welcomed as us, with a bowl of water and a jar of snacks all ready for our arrival. There are some amazing walks in the area, each one leading to a pub! We parked behind the Maybush (just £1 for 3 hours) and walked along the river, returning some hours later for a well earned liquid refreshment. Can't wait to return to this fabulous place.

There were plenty of barbecues and firepits on loan available. Logs and charcoal are on sale on site. The owners are really friendly and helpful. The washing, toilet and showering facilities were excellent. There is a very useful shop where you can buy fresh eggs, bread, drinks, camping supplies etc. There is a communal fridge/freezer and a phone charging point. When you're interested in walking, the information hut is very useful. There are plenty of local walks printed out for guests (we really enjoyed the Woodbridge riverside walk). Even though the campsite was fully booked, it felt really peaceful and tranquil. Highly recommended!

Great, well kept campsite with a well stocked little honesty shop. Quiet and relaxing location with excellent facilities. Free loan of firepit and bbq and use of a fridge freezer. Lovely toilets and showers. Will definitely go again.

Summer Camp Lovely small and quiet camp where you can put your tent amongst the trees or outskirts - you pick your spot. Immaculate shower block with nice extra thoughtful touches like mozzie spray if you've forgotten yours and blankets. There was a lovely fire burner in a little nook and fire pits you could take to your pitch. Don't forget to take a good light so you can find your back to your tent! The Fox Inn nearby served delicious food, you'll find a money off voucher in the camp info hut which we found after we had rushed out to eat ! Not far from lots of places to visit including Felixstowe for a bit of seaside charm. Needing breakfast, the owner even showed us the way to the Holeshot cafe which is a converted coach!

The perfect, chillaxing getaway! We stayed here for ten nights recently, attracted not only by the location but the fact that it was an adults only site and was "dog friendly". When we arrived we fel instantly relaxed and were looking forward to the days ahead. The setting was "heaven", so much space and so tranquil. The owners advised, in the information hut, that we should select a spot and pitch up and they would catch up with us shortly. We did just that and immediately felt at home. The shower block was superb...always clean and with those extra touches such as insect repellant, a hairdryer and kettle should you require them. There was the loan of firepits and charcoal available made on site. The information hut offered details of local attractions and even had local walks written up to take with you. A handy little shop and within walking distance to The Fox, a fabulous local pub. We met some lovely people and had a fabulous stay. Thank you Jen, Larry and Scoobs!

Outstanding campsite amazing facilities very well thought and maintained. Five stars for the showers don't quite adequately give an idea how good they are. The whole site has quirky but tasteful features. The shop is a veritable Aladdins cave. I have never been anywhere with as much space. Had a couple of very nice evenings in the elephant shed when is was raining it was more like being in the himalayas than Suffolk. It is well located for both walking and cycling. There are also loads of stalls outside peoples houses selling local produce. Definitely want to come back.

Perfect campsite for grown-ups! We camped here with two friends. The facilities were the best we have seen. The bathrooms were modern and clean, bbqs and fire pits were provided with a small cost for a box of logs. It was peaceful and pretty and the owners were lovely. The little touches such as complimentary blankets in case you are cold, a point to charge cameras, mobile phones, access to a fridge were excellent. Nearby is a farm shop and 'honesty box' stall. We bought most of our food fresh each day.

Lovely adults only site Stayed here during a very hot weekend in July. We pitched up in a nice secluded plot but there are open field and woodland spots available. Fire pits are available on site as well as a tiny but well stocked shop. Amazing showers/WCs kept immaculately spotless by the owners who are friendly and welcoming. Great site to great away from it all.

Unable to head any further afield for my annual cycle camping trip this year, I wanted somewhere different, quiet scenic clean and friendly. This campsite appeared to offer all of this.An adult only site that is very dog friendly, which was no problem at all, the site and facilities are pristine and idyllic if you need a rural digital detox.Numbers are always kept low and due to Covid were even lower when I visited. Jean and Larry place campers experience over profit it seems and this is clear in all that they do to make your stay a positive experience.I will definitely return and in all honesty, I can’t wait.

Happiness Is Here! We have visited Newbourne Woodland Campsite twice now, once as campers and most recently in Hawthorn Cabin. There aren't enough words to give this gem a suitably glowing review! It is peaceful and tranquil, the number of visitors is kept low and you can choose your pitch- woodland or meadow. The washroom facilities are better than some hotels I've stayed at and the owners really have thought of everything! This time staying in Hawthorn Cabin couldn't have been better. The love and attention that has gone into creating the cabin cannot be overlooked, from the silent fan to the citronella incense sticks everything has been thought of. The owners and their lovely dog Scoobs are a breath of fresh air and so hard working. When staying in the cabin make sure you keep a look out over the meadow for the abundance of wildlife that visit- the binoculars are there for a reason! Covid safety has also been thought of in the camp grounds but not too overbearing, the gentle and thoutful touch- just like everything else at Newbourne! We will be back to visit soon ✨

Rural idyll? Tick! Adults only? Tick! Fantastic facilities? Tick! This is the only site that we've visited that we were the ONLY CAMPERS for our 3 night stay this week! We had acres of field and woodland to ourselves! We may be spoilt for our next visit, but this is such a perfect site that it would be great anytime. We chose to pitch in a sunny, grassy clearing between some tall 'Christmas' trees, not far from the Elephant Shed and wash blocks. The whole site is lovingly maintained by Jen and Larry. The excellent wash locks are spotless. The showers were instant, hot and powerful. There is a power point in the Ladies for a hairdryer. There were generous touches; spare sleeping bags, blankets, hot water bottles to borrow. Fire baskets and barbecues were stacked neatly undercover, ready to use. Seasoned wood is only £5 for a big crate and just ask Jen for charcoal. The fridges, freezer and phone charging point were very useful. In the information shed there were mapped walks with printed copies that could be used. There were even discount cards for the local pub! We found the area charming. Quiet villages, great pubs with excellent food. Lots of glass houses growing veg and fruit. Roadside stalls sell seasonal supplies at reasonable prices with honesty boxes. There is even a farm shop within walking distance. The main A12 is easily accessed (but not heard!) for visits to beaches, quaint downs and interesting sites. Probably our new favourite campsite. We'll be back!

Excellent! We only stayed for one night, as we were testing out some new camping equipment. Greeted by Jen, who was very friendly and relaxed. Pitched the tent and headed to the Fox for a reinvigorating pint! Very nice place, about 25 minutes walk from the campsite. We borrowed a fire pit for the evening which was really lovely. The camp was very peaceful, and everyone seemed friendly. There were a few dogs, which was nice for our puppy Roxanne! Showers and toilet facilities were excellent, very clean and very luxurious for a campsite. All in all, a great stay. Would recommend, and will return!

Great bank holiday weekend What a great place to stay. The shower block and wash up facilities are of the standard you would expect of a 5 star hotel. The owners really have thought of everything. There is free use of a fire pit and BBQ, wood & charcoal available from the owners at reasonable rates. The owners limit the amount of pitches so there is plenty of space to tuck yourselves away and have some privacy. Wheel barrows are provided to transport your belongings to your chosen pitch. We had such a great time and will be returning very soon. This is a real gem, one that we would like to keep to ourselves but that wouldn't be fair as the owners have put so much effort into it. Plus it's adults only so no kids :-)

A beautiful place - away from it all An amazing chance to camp in the woods. There are no limits or restrictions to where you can pitch your tent. You are surrounded by christmas trees. Walk around and find your own little niche and pitch your tent. Grab yourself a fire pit and a BBQ, and settle in. Watching the sun go down, and seeing all the little fire pits lighting up the woods is a sight to see. Being woken in the morning by all the different birdsong is something to experience. Beautiful shower and toilet block, an elephant barn equipped with fridge and freezers and somewhere to charge your phones if you need them! Once visited, you will go back.

Perfect detox! Our umpteenth stay here and, once again, just perfect! Being Essex based, when I announce that I'll be spending a week of my treasured holidays in Suffolk, in a tent (!), my work colleagues often raise their eyebrows quizzically! Of course, the truth is that you need to go a long way to find such a great campsite, lovely countryside and sea air (just a short bike ride away) within such close proximity of one another. I think the site was full on our arrival, but you'd never know it! Unbelievable late August weather added the cherry to the top of our slow-down holiday! Don't come here if you want clubhouses or to be able to play loud music! However, if your idea of relaxation is spending an evening under a starlit sky and in front of a crackling fire listening to owls calling, this is for you. Whether camping in the woodland or on the open areas, you can be sure that life will feel a little better - even if it rains! Jen and Larry really do run a fantastic site here and I look forward to many more visits. Only one negative - my 'phone actually had improved signal over my last visit! I'll leave it at home next time!

A complete escape We chose this site as it looked like a secluded getaway and we were not disappointed. Find a pitch nestled in the woodlands and set up camp. No cars in the woodland which makes it even more peaceful, wheelbarrows available to move your things to and from the car. Larry, Jen and Barney are friendly and welcoming and make sure you know where everything you need is. There is a great pub serving delicious food a short walk away. There is also a fantastic farm shop with the most amazing burgers on the way to the pub. The coast is a few miles away as are the towns of Ipswich, (lovely docklands area) and Felixstowe with its pebble beach, amusements and traditional beach huts. We also took our 2 dogs who absolutely loved it. Perfect getaway for walking, cycling and just relaxing :-)

Had a lovely weekend staying at the Newbourne Woodland Campsite. It's a beautiful campsite with lots of choice of where to pitch - open space, woodland area, more hidden grassy areas. Facilities were kept very clean and the best I've seen on a campsite. Especially loved the spacious showers, full-length mirror and the added touch of a kettle and extra blankets in the bathroom in case you get cold. Jen was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The campsite also had an excellent shop that was stocked with everything you need (and lots of things you didn't realise you needed!) Highly recommend.

Amazing facilities & so peaceful I joined my family camping for a few nights at Newbourne and can't recommend enough! The facilities are absolutely amazing (probably the best we have encountered at a campsite!) there are fridge/freezers available, a phone charging point and benches/tables available for guests use. The toilet and shower block is very well maintained and cleaned to a very high standard, there are waterfall showers which are heavenly after a busy day sightseeing. There is also a kettle in the bathroom (perfect for hot water bottles on an evening!). The campsite is located in a quiet peaceful landscape surrounded by fields and farmland so offers a tranquil getaway from the hustle and bustle! Very enjoyable and peaceful trip- just wish it could have been a longer stay.

There's a campers kitchen with phone charging point, fridges and freezer plus seating with candles. All very lovely. This is an adults only and tent only campsite which is rare and much appreciated by those of us who work all year with children and need a quiet break!! The shop has all essentials at a very reasonable price and Jen is really friendly and approachable. Thoroughly recommend this little gem of a campsite.

Great attention to detail This is a great campsite where the owners seem to have thought of everything. There are plenty of BBQs and firepits available to use, a campsite shop, a choice of either woodland or field camping, great wash facilities (the shower was better than our one at home providing no one was using the one next door!), blankets, a covered seating area, info about walks... the list goes on and on! This was all for a very reasonable price with no extra charges for taking the dog whereas a lot of campsites use this as an opportunity to charge extra. There is also a really good pub in the village that is doggy friendly and does great food :) The only slight downside is that you aren't allowed to take your car to your pitch, although we knew this before booking as it says on the website. Wheelbarrows are provided to cart your stuff however we ended up quite a long way from our car which meant a lot of trekking to and fro (in very unEnglish hot weather!).

Fantastic location away from it all This campsite it truly amazing. You have a choice of whether to set up camp in the wood or the field next to it. There were only three tents there when we visited and it felt like we had the wood to ourselves! There are lots of little clearings and benches and tables dotted round and there are plenty of fire pits and bbqs to borrow. At only £20 per night its a bargain. The toilet/shower facilities are incredible - so clean and well maintained with lovely little touches like nice hand soap and bug spray to borrow, and washing up liquid and bowls to use outside . I especially liked the big box of blankets available to borrow to keep you snug in front of your campfire! There are only two toilets and two showers for each sex so I can see this could get busy if the campsite were full, however we had no problems at all. This campsite really has thought of it all. There are plenty of walking maps to borrow and even a shelf of books. It's an incredible little place with at least two lovely country pubs in walking distance! The only problem we had was trying to pay as its cash only and we saw no-one that worked there during our stay! However we managed to sort this, but maybe a tip for the management might be to install an honesty box or something in the reception area so people can post money for logs etc in there?! Brilliant place, highly recommend!

Was lovely to stay in a place of such beauty. The choice of where to pitch your tent is probably the hardest decision you need to make.On our stay there was plenty of other campers but no one had any issues with privacy.The washroom facilities were immaculate, with theadded bonus of a few blankets and hot water bottles.I could go on about how good I found this site, but the highest recommendation is that I will definitely go back.

First time in a hammock Last week I bought myself a camping hammock and wanted somewhere to try my hand at hammock camping. After a little searching on the interweb I cam across Newbourne Woodland Campsite and their facebook feed said that they had a spare pitch as someone had gone home so I gave them a call and booked my pitch.. The campsite was very easy to find and we were met at the road by the proprietors (they have the house over the lane from the site). Jen came over and from our vantage point above the site she pointed out where everything was and then left us to it... Having parked up we went for a walk around the site we selected a suitable pitch in the woods where I could sling my hammock and my wife could pitch her tent. With everything set up we set about relaxing and taking in the peace and quiet. The facilities on site really are first rate, the toilets were clean and tidy, there were fridges and a freezer that you can use. Somewhere to charge your phone (not that you'll get a signal there), fire bowls are provided and even a covered barbeque. But that was not all, what really struck me was the attention to detail the owners have shown.. in the toilets there were two large boxes containing blankets that you can use if it gets too cold for you. There was insect repellent available to use and a lot of information in a "tourist information" hut by the main entrance. The site was very clean and tidy and looked well looked after. Everything worked as expected. True to their word, one price of £20 per night covered everything except firewood that was available at a good price of £5 per crate of logs.

The Most Perfect Adult Campsite! Where do I start! This place is so lovely, from the very start the owners made us feel welcome and and they were so laidback. You can pitch where you like and once saying hello you are sent off to find your spot. The grounds were tidy and just beautoful - and it was lovely to have the option for either meadow or woodland camping! We chose the woods - which worked nicely for us as we were close to the facilities and love wildlife! Which if you do love wildlife it is incredible for! We had a couple pheasants that wandered around our camp every day we named the fella Phillip lol. Deer, rabbits everything! We see the lot - and I see a review about bringing ear plugs as the sounds of the birds start very early! But dont be fooled into thinking its overbearing - the sounds of the birds were beautiful and was amazing to fall asleep to them all saying goodnight and again in the morning! The toilets/shower block was very clean and tidy and the showers were incredible! I didn't ever want to get out! Me and my partner loved all the little extras like the hot water bottles (which saved us at night time!) and blankets etc. There is also a fridge and a charging station which we wasnt pepared for so was such a lovely touch! It was super quiet when we went with only 2 other pitches when we arrived and it was the perfect time for peace and some tranquility! Our car even broke down and the owners were more than helpful - allowing us to park outside their home and checking on us. An amazing adults only getaway and me and my partner will most definetly be back again not only for camping but for the cabins too!

Fantastic stay. A lovely campsite run by a great couple, the campsite is secluded with many thoughtful touches such as additional blankets in the bathrooms. The man who primarily greets you at the campsite showed us to the site ensuring we knew where the fire baskets were and wash facilities. The pub is about a 20-25 minute walk and they serve good food. Fantastic stay and would highly recommend. Marc Hurren.

Jen even goes to the effort of leaving spare sleeping bags, blankets and hot water bottles in the ladies facilities. Fridges, freezer and even an electronics charging up box free for people to use. The fellow campers were all friendly and one guy even let us look in the lodge he was staying in. It was lovely. Highly recommend it to anyone - even first time campers.

Our weekend escape Our first visit to this beautiful campsite. It was the 'adults only' (no kids) that first drew us to this place. Very tranquil and peaceful. We were greeted by Jan, very nice lady and her enormous dog Barney (gentle giant). We were told we could pitch our tent anywhere and that nowhere was off limits. In the forest was lovely but we wanted to be in the sun so pitched just on the edge of the forest. Toilets and showers very clean, insect spray available to use just in case you forgot yours. Lovely little communal covered area in case of rain with log burner. A real gem this place. Lets hope it doesn't get so popular that you won't be able to get on here as it only has 20 pitches. Will definitely be back. Thanks Larry & Jan, see you again soon From Paul & Paula

This campsite is beautifully designed and maintained. I love everything about it. From the wide open spaces, amazing hot showers, hot water bottles and blankets to use. A hidden gem that I was lucky to find. |On arrival I was in need of rest and recuperation. |This site enables you to digitally detox and be at one with nature. |Customers and treated respectfully and the ethos of honesty and trust are a refreshing bonus. |Lovely spaces to roam and facilities to use.|Even the handsoap is amazing!|The honesty shop is well stocked. |Attention to detail throughout and immaculately clean. |I cant wait to return. |My favourite find was the little seat (Joe's place)|Thank you Lenny and Jen. |See you soon for sure!

It's a charming location and environment. Very tranquil and spaced-out camping pitches ( you can choose where you pitch). The facilities were the best I've seen camping, and you can see the amount of thought that has been put into the design. Thank you for our lovely stay!

Relaxed Easter break This is a fantastic site to get away from everything. You can pitch so you feel completely secluded and relax listening to the wildlife around you. At dusk the birds treat you to an amazing evensong and as night falls the owls crying through the trees is just amazing. There is great walking to be had during the day with the estuary at Waldringfield nearby and some excellent pubs if you don't feel like cooking. The toilet and shower facilities are better than my own at home with great touches like a hairdryer in the ladies, bug repellent, hand creams and the like and for those chilly evenings a box of blankets and hot water bottles to keep you snug. The addition of a small shop is great for when you run out of essentials. All in all a fab, friendly site.

If you're looking for a peaceful well run campsite you can't get any better than this the campsite consists of open area with small copies of trees and a thickly wooded area....so you can choose where to set up. They never take more than 18 campers so it's never overrun. You can have a firepit and a BBQ all of which are supplied on site along with charcoal and wood which is honesty bound if you use you let them know and I think it's about 8 pounds something of that order we brought our own but you could pitch up with nothing .... there is also a little shop up at the top The showers and ablutions are second to none extremely modern and clean with classic fm playing Just down the road 0.8 mile there is a lively chocolate box type pub called the Fox ..very popular... this is a must visit great food 18 to 25 pounds per person ....and great fun walking back in the dark. I think it's one of the very nicest campsites I've been to over the years.

Another lovely visit I can honestly say that every time we go to this site we have a great time. We usually stay in Kingfisher cabin and it is the quirkiest and well equipped place I have stayed in. Everything you could possibly need is provided and the welcome pack that Jen provides is more than a welcome pack - eggs, bread, milk, jam, fruit and even a bottle of wine - such slovenly thing to do. And if you forget anything the on site shop will have it or just take a walk down the road and fruit and veg is available on many road side stalls or from the Virginia nurseries honesty shop. The friendliest site I know full of lovely campers and Jen and Larry are the best hosts. Its one of those places you want to rave about but you also want to keep it a secret (if you've been you'll know what I mean. Can't to return.

One of the best campsites we have ever stayed at! We loved the location and enjoyed exploring the many beautiful footpaths around. The site is so beautiful and the hosts have put so much thought into everything, it feels like a privilege to stay there. Perhaps the best recommendation is that we booked again before we left!

Camping in the woods! Amazing, amazing, amazing!! We had a fantastic relaxing weekend here. Owners are lovely people who have created a fantastic campsite. A great experience. The shower block is the best I've ever used. A little piece of calm in this crazy world!

Campsite haven. Second visit to Newbourne campsite. The first being in 2021. This campsite is just as brilliant as we remembered and it was lovely to share it with our friends who also loved it. The site is spacious and has different levels and trees to make it feel really private. There’s space in the field or in the woodland. The tents aren’t on top of each other and everyone respects each others space because you get to choose your spot. The scenery is beautiful too and it’s perfectly located with lots of walks with pubs along the way. Would highly recommend the maybush inn. It’s adults only so lovely and quiet and everyone is respectful of noise. The fire pit was a highlight on one of the nights as it was a bit chilly. The shower block is always clean and tidy and calming. Jen the owner has really paid attention to detail on this campsite and there is a little shop for emergency bits if needed. We would highly recommend to campers wanting some peace and relaxation whilst camping. This really is a little haven, we will definitely be back. Thank you!
