With one part of the White House Beach Club Campsite adjacent to the beach and the other enclosed by attractive willow trees and shrubs, there's a pitch to suit all tastes at this location. In early summer the foreshore is a riot of colour with wild flowers, including the rare Yellow Poppy. Although Kessingland beach is shingle, Lowestoft is within easy reach from the caravan site and has a beautiful sandy beach complete with the lifeguard safety. The Sailors Home pub in Kessingland comes recommended and is dog friendly.
Recently voted best large attraction in the area, Africa Alive is just a short distance from White House Beach Club Campsite and offers a great safari park attraction for the family. Nearby charming Southwold has recently become a landmark for being the setting for the movie adaptation, "Iris", starring Kate Winslet and Dame Judy Dench. The caravan park is also just a few miles away from the Pleasure Wood Hills Theme Park, which guarantees a fun day out for children. Other not-to-be-missed excursions include taking a day boat on The Broads and going fishing or bird watching at Minismere. More nearby places to visit include the picturesque Framlingham Castle and the National Trust owned site of Horsey Windpump.

Seaside Site
White House Beach Club Campsite
Great location for a seaside holiday without the normal commercialisation. The wardens are hard working and friendly. The only criticism of the site is the beachside facilities block needs a total refurbishment. That said we will return again
loverly friendly staff, clean and quiet site.
White House Beach Club Campsite
While the site is very clean and tidy the staff do a walk around several times by looks of it and tidy up if they see anything. a few areas are a bit tired like the main washroom is a bit tired but its functional, there is several dog bins and rubbish bins dotted about and the dog area behind the main washroom is a good idea but I did notice a large gap by the gas tank area that smaller dogs could go under but it is a nice area for dogs to play. the pitch I was on (number 24) was clean and tidy and did drain ok in the small bit of rain I had overnight, defiantly a site to bring a good torch if you go for a walk once sun goes down. NISA shop nearby at park dean site(Of which I don't recommend anyone camp there as they often get noisy people on site) there is a pub nearby and 2 chip shops(1 at park dean and 1 in opposite direction) beach is a few mins walk away and is a mix of stone with sand areas. safari park is nearby which is good to go around and worth the money. I would recommend this campsite to others and it's 1 I would come back to again in the future.
Lovely staff, great location
White House Beach Club Campsite
I would agree with other reviewers that although the staff are great and the location is good, the facilities are clean but tired. We were on the beach side, which is affected by road noise, quite small pitches and an unattractive fence between us and the road. Our main gripe was that despite a notice saying that adequate wifi was available at all pitches, this was not the case, and this coupled with poor mobile signal meant that we ended up paying £5 a day or £15 a week for premium wifi which I think is a bit of a rip off. In this day and age we all depend on wifi and come to expect its availability. In addition, the TV signal did not work even with an aerial connection.
That said, we had a lovely time and even extended our stay, but that was more because of glorious weather and a good location rather than the site facilities.
Facilities are starting to look tired, play area has gone, some pitches have no wifi.
White House Beach Club Campsite
We have visited this site a number of time over the last 7 or 8 years and always had an enjoyable time. So when planning a trip with one of our grand daughters, we thought we would head back to Kessingland - particularly as it now boasted premium wifi. The staff were lovely at check in (as they were throughout our stay) but failed to advise us that there was quite a large dead spot in the wifi coverage. Needless to say, it was only after I had erected the (large) awning that it became apparent that we had chosen a pitch right in the middle of the wifi dead spot! We then sent off our grand daughter to enjoy the nice, but small play area we remembered from our previous visits, only to be told it had completely disappeared!
We were also disappointed to find that the facilities are now getting very tired and are desperately in need of a re-fit. Having said all that, the site is beautifully kept and the staff were very nice - a particular thank you to the lady who took the time to find us when our grand daughter lost her purse and it was handed in to the office
Overal, we had a nice holiday - Africa Alive is great, Framlingham Castle is fun and the beach at Lowestoft is good for youngish children.
Average site
White House Beach Club CampsiteWe stayed on the beach front part of the site in our motorhome . We had a pitch on the second row ( front row would have been better )which backed on to quiet a busy road with people and cars passing by most of the day and early evening. The views from the motorhome where lovely( as higher up) but sat outside on the chairs lower down you just got the fence which was in need of TLC ..maybe a mesh fence or something more pleasing to the eye would have been better The other part of the camp site looked nice and quiet but no great views . The wardens where lovely and very helpful Last bit of road in quiet tight if you met anyone else Toilets and showers where clean The immediate area itself didn’t have a lot to see apart from the beach front . However there was a bus stop 10 mins walk away which you could get to a lot more places such as Southwold which was beautiful and just 25 mins away and if you had a car a lot more places . You could also do a nice walk from the site along the beach and if you had a dog would be ideal There was a public house within walking distance but we didn’t try it as looked quiet basic
