About Wardley Hill Campsite
Settled in a valley between Beccles and Bungay, this relaxed and quiet campsite promotes a back to basics camping experience. There are no marked out pitches, so you can choose to pitch your tent where you like, choosing one of the many secret spaces cut into the long grass or perhaps finding a spot nestled among the trees. Motor vehicles aren't allowed into the camping area, so you can kick back and let the kids run around without fear of them running into an SUV, and you won't be woken in the night by headlights illuminating your tent as Bob and Jill return from the pub. Trolleys are provided for you to transport your equipment. For those of you 'too posh to pitch' or if you just fancy something different, there's the Tinkers Hut which has space to sleep five, with a toasty wood burner and beautifully kitted out interior. Or why not stay in the Touareg bell tent with room for up to two adults and two children. Inside you'll find a double bed and two futons, along with solar lighting and tea/coffee facilities. There's even a tree tent option where you can sleep suspended in the trees! Dogs are welcome for a small feel in the Tinkers Hut. Please note, that this site is a quiet site and asks all campers to be courteous of your neighbours.
The grass pitches are available from 17th April to 13th October, while the bell tent is available from 18th July to 7th September. The tree tent and Tinkers hut is open from 17th April to 15th December.

Things to do on site and in the Bungay area
Staff are keen not to provide any 'entertainment' on site, with a view that camping is about making your own fun and enjoying the countryside around you.
However, off site you will find great walks and cycling. Nearby there are several pubs and a superb restaurant within walking distance. Elsewhere locally you'll find boat and bike hire and staff can point you in the direction of countless tourist attractions.
