Why stay here ...
Our very well maintained site is accessible all year round in all weather conditions. There is lots of space on the free draining site which is level, and has easy access from the A12 which is 1.5 miles away. Very peaceful, with good walks and footpath links from the site itself.
Croft Farm’s crowning glory is its location. Its serene setting on the beautiful Suffolk Heritage Coast is surrounded by rolling countryside and lies within ten minutes of the coast. You’re just two miles from the world famous Snape Maltings music venue, while Aldeburgh, Southwold, and Woodbridge are all in easy reach. This is the perfect base from which to explore Suffolk.

Lovely CL
Croft Farm
We came here 10 years ago , still the same but the pot holes had been filled in which was much better the field is flat with the usual cold water tap and chemical disposal point a very tidy site , we put our money in the envelope provided and put it through the letter box as instructed we did not see the owner but that did not bother us , it absolutely poured down with heavy rain on Tuesday night but the ground was fine , loads of walks in the area , a lovely church to visit just up the road , snape maltings is not far away with all the shops to look around and have a bite to eat , we had fish and chips in Aldeburgh and a lovely walk by the river , we will be back
A SECLUDED SITE IN RURAL SUFFOLK
Croft Farm
We returned to the site after a break of about five years. It is as welcoming as always and for those of you who remember it from about five years ago great news the access road has been smoothed out, no more pot holes just a well drained level farm access road.
We had a short break (4 nights) and were able to acheive a reasonable length walk on each of the days inspite of heavy rain on the afternoon and evening of the Saturday. The rain was such that it would have caused flooding on some sites but the sandy soil copes with whatevever the elements throw at it and drains perfectly.
The walk to Alburgh via the sailors path is a standard for this area but if doing it take the opportunity to visit the open access land to the east of blackheath wood the views across to the Alde Estuary are worth the detour.
There are plenty of walks from the site both towards Snape and Alburgh and also towards Glenham and Friston all are clearly marked on the OS map and the going is easy with no steep inclines or hills.
The little petrol station/CoOp store just up from the site on the main road ( walk up the Gromford Lane towards the church} is well stocked and seemed to be reasonable pricewise.
This is a good base to use if visiting the Suffolk coast / heathlands and would recommend it highly.
Our Suffolk safari!
Croft Farm
An ideal base for our plans to explore the coastal region of Suffolk. We visited Aldeburgh, Snape, Woodbridge, Southwold and Walberswick. Walked miles and enjoyed lots of peace and privacy. Croft Farm is everything we wanted in a CL with level fields and walks from site including the farm nature trial as well as plenty of options for beach and coastal walks in the area. We hope to return soon.
Peaceful Site
Croft Farm
We stayed for 2 nights, but wish we could have stayed for longer!
The 5 pitches are spread out so there’s plenty of room for each one. Lovely level surface to pitch up on. Very friendly neighbours, and no noise apart from the crows🤣
Basic site, (which is what we like),contactless payment.
We visited Thorpeness and Rendlesham Forest which were fantastic! We were so lucky with the weather, sunny the whole time!!
Will definitely return.
Autumn break
Croft Farm
Had 3 nights at Croft Farm. The site is very level and well drained - it hammered down a couple of times during my stay but the sandy soil meant it never got deep or slippery. Perfect all year round site. Well placed for Aldeburgh and Framlingham, as well as Sutton Hoo and Woodbridge. No contact with owner, other than a brief phone call to ensure I was in the right place. Payment via envelopes through the letter box. Facilities basic but functional.
