Ok site and good beach location except for the sewage works!

The site is right on the beach near a village with shop and pub. The site is a bit run down and WiFi is poor even after the 2023 upgrade. The whole experience was ruined for me by the strong smell of sewage from the sewage works to the west “Marsh Lane” - it’s clearly visible on Google maps.

On the Beach

We spent a wonderful 15 days here. Beach, Beach and More Beach! We walked to Pakefield and back , the beach is AMAZING, lovely and wild and there are pubs in Pakefield for resfreshments and the only Semi-detached church in the country (and its dog friendly if you want to pop inside). Another great beach is Gorleston, golden sands, with a small harbour, good for crabbing etc.. Also visited Lowestoft past the new style beach huts and the new bronze statue on the beach and over the bridge and round to the most easterly point in the country by the Windmill. Also the new Kittiwake Hotels out to sea are very intersting. We also visited Southwold, although the car park was a joke (Ringo - not working, does not take cards - cash a problem as no tickets left in the machines) .Another small interesting Village was Walberswick, lovely tea shops and small interesting clothes/gift shops. The TV signal works well, but we used a booster, available from reception for a small fee. We found the WiFi fine as well for browsing, emails etc, obviously not for streaming. The site staff couldn't have been friendlier and they really put a lot of effort into cleaning the amenity blocks, they were very clean and fresh when they'd finished. We were on pitch 42 and had loads of space. Neil and Helen were so, so, so helpful, always cheery, waving, smiling and wishing a good morning to everyone. The best wardens we have ever come across so far, nothing was too much trouble. Even pointed us in the right direction to go home to avoid tiny roads and traffic jams! Neil helped us on his afternoon off. Helen helped a caravan who had been in a traffic jam, well after hours. We cannot speak highly enough of these wardens!

Choose Here for Seaviews - Mecca for dog walkers

There aren't many places where you can have a pitch this close to the sea. Sure you have to forgo an awning or windbreak as per rules but a small price to pay. Possibly not much for younger folks here apart from the beach, tended to be more mature couples many many with dogs - all well behaved. Your sort of at the end of the earth here, so if you're a fan of long walks best get the map out or you could just end up at a dead end. There is some toing & froing as the its the access road to Kessingland Holiday Park although was not intrusive. There's a shop on the park next door, very handy for essentials of forgotten items! TV reception is bad so bring your 25m coax cable or on site shop sells them. Mobile coverage not great but park offers basic or paid WiFi.

A pitch near the beach - a rare gem

We stayed on the beach side of the road and it was wonderful to be able to walk out to the sea. The pitches are slightly closer together than I expected, but it wasn't a problem for us. All entrances are controlled with a key card barrier, and the facilities were clean and tidy. We could only stay for 1 night, but I'm sure we'll be back. There is a good fish and chip shop about 10 minute walk away (there is a large carpark nearby if you have to drive). The immediate town area isn't much to write home about, but the broads and Southwold are only short drives away. The beach is a mixture of sand an shingle, but is very accessible and you could easily go for a very long walk in either direction. Although the last part of the road to the site is very narrow, it's worth the effort. Can't comment on TV reception, but the Wifi was ok. The staff were great and we had no trouble whatsoever.

Great site, so clean, staff very helpful

We had a lovely 7 days here. I'd HOPED to get a pitch on the beach side but that was fully booked so we pitched on the more main site on the other side of the road, my dissapointment didn't last long as it was so windy! The facilities were so clean, there is only 1 block for the whole of that side of the site. I saw a comment earlier from Beachside saying people from the main site were using the facilites on the beachside and yes, we were told that for some of the pitches its best to use the beachside facilties as they are actually closer and also when the facilities are closed for cleaning for an hour there is no other option but to use the beachside (unless you can use your own toilet/shower). I also saw another comment about the TV signal and I can confirm that this was upgraded while we were there so hopefully that is now sorted. We found the WiFi fine as well for browsing, emails etc obviously not for streaming. The site staff couldn't have been friendlier and they really put a lot of effort into cleaning the shower/toilet blocks, they were very fresh when they'd finished. I think we were on pitch 81 and had loads of space, its was a lovely big corner pitch (grass). if you want to go Beachside we learnt you need to book hardstanding no awning (lesson learnt). We walked to Pakefield and back on the first afternoon, the beach is AMAZING, lovely and wild and there are pubs in Pakefield for resfreshments and the only Semi-detached church in the country (and its dog friendly if you want to pop inside). Also visited Somerleyton, walked from Pakefield to Lowestoft past the new style beach huts and the new bronze statue on the beach and over the bridge and round to the most easterly point in the country by the Windmill. Also the new Kittiwake Hotels out to sea are very intersting. We also visited Southwold for their famous fish and chips and this is definitely a must do.

Could be better

As a family of four, we have given 1 key to facilities, it is hard to use facilities this way. It could be a password lock door or something. The only good thing, campsite is so close to beach.

Great site for dog walking

We visit white house beach alot but this time chose a beach side pitch which was great our only disappointment was the facilities they are very old fashioned and only 2 showers in men and ladies but floors were always wet and slippery outside the showers. Also we saw guests from larger site come to use the showers which meant an even longer wait. The block is badly in need of an upgrade. Also surrounding fence and gate to beach could do with a coat of paint as very tatty. As the site is so popular it would be a shame not to keep the club standards up. Wardens do a great job with the tools they are given.

Enjoyable stay

We enjoyed our 3 night stay at this site. It is well positioned to explore the Suffolk coast and for beach walks given its proximity to the shoreline. We found a spacious, shady and level pitch, the only negatives being non-existent TV reception and weak/intermittent Wi-Fi signal. The facilities were extremely clean and all worked but are in need of updating. The staff were wonderfully friendly and helpful.

Best of Suffolk

Kessingland Beach will be an island if the sea level rises and what a perfect place to be marooned. It's unique in that it is actually growing whie the coast around erodes. Split across 2 locations, beachside and inland there are distinct changes in character. The beach has the advantage of views to the sunrise over the sea - worth getting up for. We stop at World of Fish to get seafood on the way in and Morrisons for the duller provisions. We also leave the van on site and use the bus (Wash Lane) to Southwold and Lowestoft, or even Norwich. As usual the wardens are a beacon of hope for humanity, being happy to help and answer any questions as well as keeping the facilities and site clean and tidy. Lowestoft has a market and the walk along the beach up the coast to the most easterly point in Britain is worth it (especially for completists). If you want to walk down the coast to Southwold (more of a challenge) please be sure to check both tide and weather as Broadacre broad can breach to the sea making walking difficult. Overall, it's a wonderful site and ideally placed to explore into the broads and even to Yarmouth and Lynn.

Lovely arelaxing Break

My husband and our 2 dogs stayed here for 3 nights in June. On arrival we were greeted by 2 very friendly and happy to see us members of staff. They were very helpful and couldn't do enough to help. The site is very clean and well maintained. The facilities are also very clean and tidy. It is a 3 minute walk to the dog friendly (all year round) beach. And also a few minutes walk to the nearest pub. We loved our stay here and would definately visit this site again.
