Sheep's Meadow
We stayed at this site with some friends for a week. The booking process was simple and Robert was extremely responsive and helpful throughout and provided excellent instructions for towing routes to ensure easy access. The site is arranged over two areas - one backing onto the local (not main) road with associated noise where the facilities block is located and another further down into the farm itself which appeared on cursory inspection to be very much better mown and much quieter but a long way from the loos. Local area is lovely and worth exploring. It is a working cattle farm and fly screens are essential. Only big downside was the facilities block which is 'vintage' and it has definitely seen better days. No door on shower, only a curtain so privacy is a big issue. No external lighting means a torch is essential for after dark visits. There were notices saying that the block is not cleaned and it is up to the campers to keep it clean. Happy to ensure that I don't leave a mess if I use facilities but I do expect that if facilities are provided they are cleaned regularly. Toilet rolls were topped up regularly though so it was not clear whether this notice was a hang over from covid or still in force - the shower was not that clean whenever I looked in.
Lovely place
Sheep's Meadow
We picked this place as a CL that had a toilet and shower, allowed kids and was in good visiting distance of Aldeburgh, Thorpeness, Dunwich and Southwold as well as being in a beautiful part of Suffolk. We weren't disappointed. The place is lovely, the welcome warm (and quirky in a good way) and the peace and quiet just what we needed.

Great and full of character
Sheep's Meadow
We found this place as a last minute booking. Great location if you are after some peace and quiet with good walks and cycle routes. Nice little farm shop selling cracking meats and veggies. Owner and helpers all very friendly. If you are parked up in the far field its a hike back to the waste dump, but apart from that, we loved the place!
Would deffers stay again

Excellent base for exploring
Sheep's Meadow
This was our second visit to this site and we stayed for 4 nights in the Top Field (adjacent to the entrance). We used bikes and car to explore the area especially the coastline. Luckily we had good weather even in September. It is a lovely ride to RSPB Minsmere with few cars. Also worth visiting are Dunwich, Thorpeness, Aldeburgh and Orford.
The site is flat with 5 hardstanding pitches with electric hookup with views across the fields to woods. Entrance to the site is easy even with a big van or camper. There is a small toilet and shower block. There is even a circle of standing stones...but they are made from fibreglass! The farm shop sells local meat (sausages, steak etc). Payment can be made at the shop or online.
Lovely little site
Sheep's Meadow
Spent two nights here recently, we were on the bottom field which had nice views, well spaced out pitches, nice that they sell their own meat on the farm, lovely family who deserve credit for the diversification of a working farm. Nice to see the cattle in the field, we used the loos in the top field instead of the porta loo in the bottom field, all nice and clean would difinately stay again if we were in the area.
