About Swattesfield Campsite

Swattesfield Campsite is a seven acre site done in true Suffolk style. The site is in it's eighth year and is a delightful countryside escape - the ideal spot to stay and explore the Waveney Valley and the local market towns of Eye and Diss. There are two grass camping fields with unmarked camping pitches for tents and campervans, plus three types of glamping accommodation for hire. Cooking facilities which include a pizza oven that all campers are welcome to use. Three boutique bell tents offer all of the creature comforts you could possibly want for a thoroughly enjoyable stay. At five metres across these are big enough for four or five and have a full-size comfy double bed as well as two or three fold out child beds. The tents have coir matting throughout, as well as torch lanterns, a gas hob, all your cooking equipment - and your very own picnic table and fire pit. The Woodland furnished bell tent offers even more off-grid living! Another option is the two fun and unique Pixie Huts. These octagonal wonders have four peek-a-boo windows, a comfy full-sized double bed and two foam fold out smaller beds for any little imps. With their own decking area and dining table overlooking the south facing skies of Suffolk, you'll soak up the best of the sunny days. The huts have their own picnic tables and fire pits, and inside you'll find a wardrobe and bedside cabinets along with some fun finishing touches such as log burners with fire guard. Cosy and cutesy, they are a great place to wind down and relax. Finally, there's the converted Suffolk Hay Cart, fit for two adults and two children. Converted by Phil, the site owner and a joiner for over 30 years, you'll find shelf storage, a table and two chairs, a toasty multi-fuel burner and some pretty finishing touches. You can spread out down the steps into your own awning area next to the cart which houses all your cooking equipment in an outside kitchen. There's also a fire pit, bench and free bag of logs and kindling.
