Why stay here ...

Wildemere Farm is situated on the western side of the Brecklands area of East Anglia with its forests and open areas of heath land. The site itself is located on a corner of a secluded meadow set in woodland. The one acre fenced area used for caravans is level and free draining, with the grass kept as a lawn. All pitches have access to 10 amp electric hook-ups, mains water connections and grey water drainage together with TV hook ups.We also have a hard standing for motor homes if required. Wooded lanes adjoining the site are great for walks and the whole area is a haven for wildlife. The site has a summer house which holds local tourist information. Carp fishing is available nearby.

David looks forward to welcoming you to his CL

Beautiful spot

Wildemere Farm
We enjoyed a lively week at this site with our dogs it was well placed for visiting Lakenheath and Milldenhall and the jets overhead were spectacular, only one downside was the neighbouring field is used for dog training and one day there was around 20 dogs there yapping from 8-30am to 6pm and no signs of owners trying to quieten them down so bare this in mind if you want quiet days by the van as we were, we will however return at some point and The Bird in hand pub is excellent for pub grub and very dog and human friendly, site and pub both good value for money

Surprisingly very peaceful

Wildemere Farm
This was a very nice and surprisingly peaceful site to stay on. Bearing in mind that this site is located between two American air force bases, there was very little noise from any planes. Yes, you did hear the odd one take off, but that was in the distance and only for a couple of minutes. The rest of the time is spent trying to identify the bird song. The site was very firm and stable, considering how much rain the country has had lately, and there was no problem driving across the grass with car and caravan. Just behind the pitches is a dog training area. One day, trainers were putting dogs through their paces, but we only noticed when we went to leave the site for some sight seeing. All very quiet. It was nice to have a fully service pitch. I like the benefit of having my own water supply, and nowadays, this is one of the first things I look for when choosing a site. David called for his money after we had been on site for two days and was a very nice chap to chat too. He has had the site for many years. Some interesting places to visit nearby such as the Dads army museum in Thetford and shopping and eating in Bury St Edmunds. One tip. The driveway leading to the site has a couple of very large pot holes so drive very slowly. No problem, but be aware. Access is large and open so no problem for those of you who have large vans.

Noisy dogs

Wildemere Farm
Nice site but ruined by a big dog barking continuously from 5am to 7am in the immediate vicinity, setting off other dogs so we moved on after one night instead of staying for 4 I offered to pay for the one night but Mr Overton cancelled the charge so full marks for customer care Sorry as the site suited our needs and appeard to be well setup.

joint first place best UK CL!

Wildemere Farm
Spent 13 nights here early August during the heat wave. Booked over 2 years ago then Covid, so great to get here. Living in NE Scotland, we love the sun! Fantastic site, pitch where you want alongside electric, water, drains and TV- what more is there. David a fantastic chap, always available for a chat or to help-will even provide water extension. We are looking to move to Suffolk, so an excellent base for checking the area. Bury St Edmunds a lovely town- 20 mins. If you're an aircraft buff, fantastic, but not intrusive; even my wife showed an interest when the F15s were landing over the site. We will definitely be back.

Wildemere Farm, Fantastic

Wildemere Farm
What great CL sited in the Suffolk countryside. The pitches have water, ehu and TV hookup. Radio reception was good as was EE for tethering. I can’t comment on television reception. David, the owner is a great character and a font of knowledge. The site is situated between RAF Mildenhall and RAF Lakenheath, both US airforce bases which is great if your an aircraft fan. Lots to do in the area, both RSPB and SWT & NWT reserves. Plenty of National Trust and English Heritage sites. Easy drive to ELy and Bury St Edmunds etc
