TIP OF THE WEEK
Some vegetables last for longer in water. Stand spring onions, lettuce and celery in a glass or bowl of water in the fridge and they'll stay fresh for ages.
 

SUFFOLK TOURISM AWARD WINNER 2011 - BEST CAMPSITE AND SUSTAINABLE TOURISM

Situated in the beautiful Alde Valley in the heart of Suffolk, Alde Garden (pronounced 'old' - named after the river Alde which runs near to the site) offers relaxing, low-impact holidays with a touch of luxury. Just 20 mins from Suffolk's stunning coastline, yet only 2 hours' drive or train journey from London - Alde Garden is the ideal retreat for a short break or holiday.

With a wide choice of accommodation ranging from basic tent pitches through to a charming period cottage, there's something to suit all tastes and budgets.

We are a small and friendly business, focusing on appreciation of the environment and the countryside. More than just a campsite, we offer a wide range of accommodation – including Mongolian-style yurts (hand made on site by us!), a native American style tipi, a traditional carved wooden gypsy caravan and a cozy beamed holiday cottage.

All set within a mature wildlife garden of just an acre, Alde Garden is a warm friendly site with a communal feel. Please note if you are looking for a quiet retreat or romantic break the best time to come is during the week outside of school holidays. 

So, if you're looking for unusual places to stay in Suffolk, with rustic charm and an eco ethos - come on in and explore what Alde Garden has to offer!

       

 

* to maintain the communal atmosphere in the garden, we prefer to keep group sizes to a minimum. Therefore 2 families or 6 adults without children is our maximum.
