Relaxing and peaceful 3 night mini break

Briarwood Farm
We stayed for 3 nights at the end of September. Really good directions from the owner, very easy to find. Really large field with plenty of room to spread out, very level grass field surrounded by trees and bushes. Good access road to the site, it has a gate which the owners like to keep closed, it all felt very secure. There is a chemical disposal drain, water, and rubbish which has several bins for recycling. There is a single toilet with a wash basin for exclusive use for the CL site. We were met and given information, we could pitch were we liked as there were several electric points dotted around. This CL is situated very close to several attractions and seaside towns and villages, all within easy driving distance. There are a couple of pubs doing food, we had a Sunday lunch in the Parrot at Aldringham, pretty sure you could walk to it but we were going on to somewhere else so drove there, nice Sunday roast, not sure if it is the same every week but there was beef or chicken breast, you could also have the regular things of the menu. We would definitely recommend this site for the peacefulness, hardly any traffic noise, not overlooked in any way and very well kept. We hope to visit again

Fabulous site

Briarwood Farm
Just returned from a fantastic 2 week stay at this fabulous site. We found it easily with the directions given. It's a lovely big field and is so peaceful. The owners are lovely, and they are helpful if you need anything. The site is central to lots of beautiful areas to visit and discover. There is a pub within walking distance which serves good food. We will definitely be going back!

Hidden peaceful site

Briarwood Farm
What’s not to like.... this site is like a huge secret garden, don’t be put off by the address, yes, it is at the end of a quiet cul de sac, but goodness, you turn the corner into a huge field with loads of room to spread out. It is placed in a perfect location to explore Suffolk, Aldeburgh and Thorpeness are on the doorstep and Southwold and Dunwich not far. It is surrounded by footpaths and good cycling lanes, and there are two pubs within walking distance, The Parrot and Punchbowl can be accessed by walking through the woods behind the site, definitely worth a visit. Really friendly welcome from the owners, and yet again, come away please feeling very fortunate to have been able to stay on someone’s beautiful land, thank you, will return for sure.

A Peaceful Gem

Briarwood Farm
We have just returned from a 6 day stay at this lovely, peaceful site. We were given a very friendly welcome from Mrs Wrench who let us set up before coming back later to explain everything. The site is easy to find and the access is good (when you get to Judith Ave just keep going until you come to the track, the site is at the end of it). The field has plenty of room for the 5 pitches, plenty of space for all, it is surrounded by trees but these don't impede on light. Water, waste, rubbish, loo etc are very well organised and clean with easy access from the field. It is close to local towns and attractions with plenty of footpaths and easy cycling all around. There is a pub and shop in the village which is just a walk away. I would definitely recommend this site and would love to go back if only to watch the stars at night with no light pollution and listen to the owls and pheasants in the woods.

Not suitable for motorhomes

Briarwood Farm
Unfortunately we booked this site just using the App where it states that the site is suitable for motor homes, whereas on the website it says that it’s not! This is mainly because the owner doesn’t like Motorhomes filling with water from the one tap with a hosepipe. Otherwise the site was very peaceful and pleasant within reach of Aldeburgh, Snape, and Dunwich and we had a very enjoyable break there.
