Shottisham Campsite Reviews

Great location

Really lovely campsite with great access to some amazing walks. Lovely pub down the road, just a shame they weren't serving food when we went. Good facilities, nice large pitches and quiet. We will definitely be back!

Lovely campsite with clean shower block

Lovely campsite in a great location with access to special Suffolk.

Great small holding

Really great stay! Chickens amused our little one no end. Facilities clean and functional, could do with being able to shut doors to the main entrance so a bit warmer, but understand why it isn't so.

Perfect holiday!

Fantastic campsite with great facilities. Lovely to see all the animals. Location great to be able to walk or cycle to the Sorrel Horse pub for a meal or a little further to Ramsholt Arms. Lovely day out in old Felixstowe by foot ferry from Bawdsey. Thanks for a great week!

Lovely campsite

Lots of birdlife and animals (wild and farm) to watch, lovely food served in Pub nearby. Clean and tidy shower/toilet block but could do with hand dryers or paper towels.

Lovely quiet site, relaxing

Such a cute, small campsite, within easy walk of a lovely local pub. Shower block is new and very clean. The only thing I would say is there is no means of drying your hands after the using the loo. Obviously you don't always visit the loo with a towel, only in the morning and evening. There is no Wi-Fi, which in a way is nice, but there is no reception either, so hard to communicate with the outside world. This meant driving out of the campsite for a while. Lots of space for each pitch. We will come back :)

A really wonderful camp at Shottisham

We've not been camping very long so this was a perfect place to start. Excellent toilet and shower facilities. Great location in Suffolk.

Delightful

Excellent combination of spotless facilities and laid back atmosphere.

Short get away

Well laid out site, we enjoyed immensely. Got everything done we wanted to. Site was quiet and very pleasant.

Great place to stay

Lovely, peaceful, quiet site.

Our visit

Very nice campsite, facilities are decent, reasonable locations for hikes.

Very nice, quiet camp with a friendly little farm

We enjoyed staying at this quiet, small, out of the way campsite. It was nice to see the chickens, pigs, and the goats so well cared for. The Café is closed, but with some help onsite, it would greatly add to the atmosphere of the place. A few more onsite groceries would be greatly appreciated, like milk, bread, and fruit. The new toilet block was beautifully kept and the showers were amazing.

Very lovely stay

Lovely campsite. The shower and toilet block are modern, up-to-date, and always clean. There was plenty of information about the site and my plot was super easy to find due to the pre-arrival information and the map provided. I stayed on a non-electrical pitch, which was spacious and right for me. I would recommend it and stay here again if I am in the area again!

Beautiful campsite, will return!

Stayed for 2 nights for my daughter’s birthday. Beautiful setting, everything very clean. Loved seeing the animals!

Beautiful area

It was in a lovely rural location. The toilets and showers were kept immaculate by James the owner. There is only a pub in the village that serves good, reasonably priced food. It could be better if one of the fields was kept for adults only. A party of 4 or 5 families arrived with lots of children, and had a really good time, but in my opinion seemed like it spoiled it for the older campers because they took over a third of the field playing games. Apart from that, it was most enjoyable.

Long weekend break

Lovely stay in a quiet location. Good toilet and shower facilities. Bought sausages from the site which were lovely. Allows fire pits. Goats as neighbours were entertaining. Chickens visit everyone which we liked. Would return to the site.

Beautiful campsite

Such a beautiful campsite. It had everything you need for camping as well as stunning surroundings for beautiful walks. James was very helpful at every interaction. We would happily stay again with our children and more than happy to recommend to our friends and family.

Peaceful, kick back style of camping

Lovely and peaceful camping. Feeding time for their animals was fun and hearing James talk through his animals was a treat. Their website about the local area is also very useful and informative. Walking straight from campsite.

Wonderful campsite and a great location.

Pretty relaxed campsite. Really clean facilities. Lovely local pub and walks. Visited Orford, Snape Maltings and Sutton Hoo. And…the sun was out and it didn't rain. Woohoo.

Hi Mark, thank you for your kind words & glad you enjoyed your stay. Hope to see you again. Many thanks & best wishes, James & Claire.

Fantastic little campsite!

This was our first stay here and we will definitely be back! Probably our new favourite site. The place is clean and yet relaxed. So quiet too! Slept so well and only woken by the dawn chorus, what a way to wake up. Up, close and personal with the alpacas, goats, sheep and chickens and lovely to see the children getting involved too. Being able to hire a fire pit and buy some wood was a real bonus. The pub is only a few minutes to wander to, but with booking ahead as they get quite busy. Highly recommended.

Spring 2024

Lovely stay at this small, low key, relaxed campsite with direct access to lots of paths and good local pub a walk away. On site animals were fun, especially the alpacas. Very clean facilities. Ready access to coastal and river walks etc

Rural, quiet camping

A lovely rural, quiet site. The cleanest showers and loos ever encountered camping. Clare and James were helpful and friendly but pleasantly low key. Excellent, despite the dreadful weather.

Fantastic site

A delightful campsite which I would definitely stay at again.

Very good

Nice, quiet and leafy site. Good amenities and relaxed. It suited us well.
