Small family-run site at Copdock, four miles from Ipswich just off the A12 and A14
About Tomcat Farm
Tucked into farmland at Copdock, four miles southwest of Ipswich, Tomcat Farm is a straightforward, family-run site that has earned a loyal following among travellers looking for a well-placed overnight stop. Its position just off the A12/A14 interchange makes it exceptionally handy for those passing through Suffolk, yet the farm setting keeps road noise to a minimum once you're settled in. Pitches for tents, caravans and motorhomes have enough space between them for privacy, and free WiFi, on-site Calor gas and a relaxed policy on dogs all add to the appeal.
The lack of elaborate facilities won't suit everyone, but if you value location and simplicity over entertainment, this modest site delivers. Ipswich's waterfront and Christchurch Park are a short drive away, while the A14 opens up Felixstowe to the east and Bury St Edmunds to the west. It's a no-fuss base that does exactly what it sets out to do.

What visitors say
If you’re looking for a site on the outskirts of Ipswich then look no further. What an incredible site this is. The facilities are always spotless and well kept, the pitches are spacious with EHU. Ideally situated for visiting Jimmy’s Farm and exploring Suffolk and Essex. We are always made to feel welcome by all the family and we feel we have made new friends.

Excellent facilities for our first time away in a caravan. A big learning curve for ourselves, with great advise from this family site. If I could rate Tomcat Farm more I would. Thank you for a great first time experience in our new caravan. X

Access is brilliant, the site is quiet and facilities remarkably clean and well maintained. We will continue to visit this fantastic site for years to come, and we always look forward to stopping here. We would certainly recommend Tomcat Farm to everyone, whether you’re looking at a weekend or week in Suffolk or just passing through.
