Brilliant CL but keep it to yourself!
Like many of us know there are certain reviews you just don’t want to write, and this is one of those. Not because of anything detrimental but just the opposite, having found a fantastic little gem you just want to keep it all to yourself. Black Barn CL falls smack bang into this bracket. Let’s start with Mollie and Richard, the owners, they were really welcoming and provided lots of pre-arrival info as well as making sure we knew where everything was when we got there, both on the site and out and about around Framlingham. A real bonus and a great reason to stay is they have a small pop-up restaurant and on several days of the week Richard, a trained chef, serves up some tempting dishes including Indian, Mexican and pizzas cooked in a wood fired oven. Even the mouth-watering aromas that waft around are very enticing. You can either eat in the neat little garden area, take your meal back to your van or even have it delivered to you. We found the site to be quiet, well laid out and with very clean water and waste facilities. A short walk takes you into the town and up to the castle, which is well worth a scout around. Market days are Tuesday and Saturday and there is some good produce on offer. If you fancy a cycle ride there are lots of quiet lanes you can access from the site and these take you out through some lovely countryside. (OS map or App recommended) A really great site, a must visit, but remember, it’s a secret gem, keep it to yourself.
