Suffolk: Haw Wood Farm holiday site to reopen in March

Haw Wood Farm Caravans and Camping off the A12 in Hinton, near Dunwich beach, is set to open again on March 1.

The site will be open for campers and caravaners to pitch their tents, and explore what the area has to offer, including the nearby coastline.

In March last year, the site announced that they were being forced to close due to issues with the plumbing system that caused "severe damage" to their facilities.

After extensive building work, including renovating their shop, cafe, and bathroom facilities, the 12-acre site will be ready to take touring bookings again.

The family-run site now has brand new facilities with piped music and a constant supply of hot water heated by the biomass boiler that uses locally sourced woodchips.

The shower and toilet rooms are fitted with underfloor heating for the cooler evenings and winter months and are equiped with hand driers, hair dryers and full length mirrors.

The updated café will serve Fish and Chips every Friday from early March, and the team are busy planning menus and events for the 2023 season.

It has previously hosted waffle nights, cheesy chips, pulled pork, and curry nights.

The cafe has always offered fresh cakes, including gluten-free brownies and slices from the Jackery Bakery in Southwold, and between April and October served breakfast baps, vegan smoothie bowls or fresh croissants.

Their shop sells all the essentials you may need, including tea, biscuits, pasta, to camping equipment, shampoo, kids toys and cider.

The site is also dog-friendly and has a playground area for children.

The farm was awarded a Travellers Choice Award by TripAdvisor last year, an award that recognises the top 10% of businesses based on reviews.

Booking will open from March 1.
