About Five Acre Holiday Camp
Five Acre Holiday Camp sits just outside Stowmarket, offering a refreshingly low-key base for exploring the Suffolk countryside. With a strong 4.7 rating from guests, this well-kept site delivers exactly what many campers want: a peaceful spot without unnecessary frills, friendly owners who know the area, and pitches that won't break the bank at around £15 a night.
The setting strikes a nice balance—rural enough to feel properly away from it all, yet close enough to Stowmarket's shops and the wider Suffolk attractions. It's the sort of place that suits families after a fuss-free weekend under canvas or tourers wanting a comfortable overnight stop while exploring the region's market towns and coastal stretches.

We spent 4 days at 5 acres. A very well maintained and quiet site. The log cabin was clean and comfortable and a sun trap. Barry is an excellent knowledgeable host and we thank him for our stay. We can highly recommend this site. The bull inn recommended by Barry is a very good eatery and on the door step at Bacton.
