Cross Vale Farm
Excellent directions to a wonderful located site. Good recycling and toilet drop. We were on the EHU pitch close to the main building, but the field area looked lovely. Short walk to Dedham, and it looked like a lot to do locally, we were only there for a night. Short distance from the A12 so handy for access. Nigel is a great guy and runs a smart site.
Great site
Cross Vale Farm
What a lovely site -easy to find, facilities all so well laid out, charming owner who came to see us when we arrived. Quiet and tranquil, lovely field to walk my greyhound in and happily for us, signs saying 'Dogs on leads' - always a bonus, my hound gets scared of loose dogs! Notice board with allocated pitch numbers so no confusion on arrival, fresh water tap in an easily accessible place, nice clean elsan emptying point - things like that make all the difference. Thank you Nigel -your site is lovely and we hope to return. Maggie & Mike

If you want quiet, this was it.
Level site, plenty of room to park . Facilities: Recycling Trash, Waste disposal ,Water supply ( decent pressure too!), a friendly hard working owner.
A pleasure to stay. Certainly come back again one day.
Lovely site. Great location
Cross Vale Farm
We stayed for 3 nights in February 2023. A great stay, despite some miserable weather. A peaceful, very well maintained site in some beautiful countryside. Great walks all around, including to the charming village of Dedham and the banks of the River Stour. The site owner, Nigel, was very welcoming, leaving us to our own devices, but very helpful when needed. Thank you Nigel. We'll be back again in better weather!
Super CL
Cross Vale Farm
We stayed for one night in January as had to pick a trailer up nearby and this seemed a great place to stopover. It is a lovely little site with everything we needed and so peaceful. We walked across the fields into Dedham which is a really nice village and we stopped for tea and cakes with our dogs (all seemed dog friendly) which is a bonus.
Nigel is friendly and welcoming and we would definitely go back as so much to see in this area and this site is well placed for this.
Easy access to site and great tv signal as well as good 4G. If you are mostly self sufficient this is the site for you.
