About Daresgate Certificated Location

Daresgate Certificated Location near Newbourne offers proper back-to-basics camping with spacious pitches and excellent surrounding walks. It's a no-frills setup - there are no showers, toilets or WiFi on site - but you'll find electric hook-ups, drinking water and W.C. disposal facilities, plus dogs are welcome to join you.

The real draw here is the peaceful Suffolk setting and access to good walking routes straight from your pitch. It's ideal for self-sufficient campers who value space and quiet over amenities, and makes a straightforward base for exploring the Heritage Coast and nearby market towns. Just be prepared to rough it a little - the lack of basic facilities won't suit everyone.

What visitors say

Graham Chippett

A lovely peaceful site. Great location between Felixstowe and Woodbridge. A little walk to the village where you will find Newbourne springs nature reserve and the Fox Pub with Adnams on tap.

Nice quiet site, found the owners friendly but not intrusive, pleasant village with roadside stalls selling excellent fruit and veg. Many walks from the site. Really enjoyed our stay and will return.

A peaceful, well kept CL with very helpful owners. Wonderful birdsong and country walks straight from the site. Local fruit and veg sold by the side of the road in the village and an award winning pub a few minutes walk away.

The disused greenhouses adjacent to the site are a bit of an eyesore and the overhanging trees to the entrance could do with a cutback, very secure site, quiet too.
