About Haw Wood Farm Caravans and Camping
Nestled in 14 acres of picturesque countryside, this multi-award-winning caravan and camping site in Suffolk boasts excellent facilities. With just a short five minute distance to the nearest beach, you can enjoy the best of both worlds - a peaceful retreat in nature with easy access to the coast. Pitches here are generous and level, catering for motorhomes, caravans, campervans and tents. As well as fully serviced hardstanding pitches, there are also large grass pitches with or without electricity. Some pitches onsite even have a view of a lovely pond. Groups of up to 40 can book an entire meadow on site to relax and pitch together, too. Managers Dan and Georgina and their team will welcome you onsite, show you around and take you down to your pitch. They will be available all through your stay, giving the site a very friendly and relaxed feel. Dogs are very welcome and will enjoy the large grazing meadow that has been made available for them to exercise off the lead. They may also enjoy the rest of the park on a lead. There is a heavy emphasis on being environmentally friendly here, which is evident in the biomass boiler that provides underfloor heating and constant hot water, and also in the gold awards from David Bellamy that praise the tremendous wildlife present on the park and the green manner in which the site is run.
The site is open from March, grass pitches are bookable from Easter to October. Hardstanding pitches are open until the end of the year.
Site facilities include modern, award winning bathrooms including family rooms and disabled access. A well stocked shop and cafe as well as a laundry with tumble driers are all conveniently located in the main facilities block.
The cafe at Haw Wood Farm serves fish and chips every Friday between March and October, plus delicious breakfasts. It is situated facing the extensive children's playground.
Firepits are available to borrow on request and other items such as high chairs, wellies and a baby bath and all free to borrow during your stay. A dedicated dog walking field is provided.

An excellent site. We took our touring caravan for a weekend break. There were outstanding toilet and shower facilities and a nice level, fully serviced pitch. The site also has a small shop selling all the essentials and a cafe. Upon our arrival, the lady who greeted us was very friendly and informative. She also gave us a discount voucher for the Fox public house nearby, which we used for a fabulous meal out on our first evening. Highly recommend.
We had a lovely weekend, it's very clean

Lovely arrival greeting, and great size plot. The showers were hot and spotlessly clean, I have a strange floor phobia and would ordinarily have to wear flip flops in strange places, but even I felt comfortable without them. The site was kept tidy and beautifully rural. If I was being picky, I would say a bit more lighting en route to the toilets. It's pitch black at night but I used a torch, so it wasn't detrimental. Would highly recommend it!

There's plenty more to explore in the area! The castle at Framlingham is a family favourite, or you can hop on the rowing boats at Thorpeness.
The kids will spend hours crabbing at Walberswick, or you can get them active cycling the stunning local bike paths. The thrills at the pleasure beach are great for those who fancy bright lights and rollercoasters!
