Our vintage glamping site is just 10 minutes from the Suffolk heritage coast. The small site is home to our own 8 trailers, we hope visitors will enjoy our small and friendly trailer park.
The tree-lined site is surrounded by farmland and only 5 miles to the Suffolk coast and 1 mile to local shops and Saxmundham train station (just under 2 hours to London). There is a kids play area in the garden with swings, a slide, a trampoline and an old army truck. We have individual fire pits for each trailer that you can use at no charge. Firewood will be available to buy from reception or you are very welcome to bring your own.
Our vintage wood-clad Red Shed is an onsite cinema showing classic family-friendly films twice a week, Red Shed Movies are free to Happy Days visitors.
The site has a large toilet and shower block just 50 yards from the trailers with large family style shower rooms and hot water washing up sinks. At colder times there is underfloor heating and heated towel rails.
Accommodation types
- Glamping Caravan - Annie — Annie is a real head-turner. She spent her time, before travelling the Atlantic, amidst the beautiful mountains of West Virginia. We like to think that John Denver may have even written a song for her!
Annie is a large four berth Airstream. In her front section, she has a sofa that converts to a double bed and a double bed in her middle section. Annie has plenty of storage, fabulous flamingo curtains with contrasting green gingham curtains that match with her green and grey checkerboard flooring.
Annie is truly a beautiful mountain Mama!

- Dog Friendly Caravan - Nettie — Nettie is an Avion trailer, similar to an Airstream but certainly more unusual. She is a classic American camper.
Made by the Avion company based in Detroit Michigan, Nettie is a Motown Diva. She was born in 1972 and spent her time with various owners all in Connecticut, in striking distance of the bright lights of NYC.
Nettie is a four-berth trailer, with a cosy dinette that makes a small double bed and twin beds in her middle section. With her 1970s inspired orange upholstery and flowery curtains, this vintage trailer is a true soul sister!
Nettie is a dog-friendly trailer.
- Glamping Caravan - Peggy — Peggy is a lady to keep you guessing, she is a true mystery girl. We don’t know her exact origin but she’s a Tradewind and we know she was born in 1973.
Peggy has a gaucho sofa that converts to a double bed at the front and she also has a double bed in the middle with a small canvas bunk above (suitable for kids aged 6 upwards to small teens).
She’s a five berth, with plenty of wardrobe space, beautiful striped curtains and patterned upholstery. She’s a gorgeous tin can caravan.
- Glamping Caravan - Gloria — Gloria is a gorgeous 1961 Overlander. But for a lady in her fifties, she certainly wears it well!
As the Beach Boys said ‘We wish they all could be Californian girls’ and who are we to disagree. This west coast cutie from the sunshine state is a real head-turner.
Gloria is a five berth trailer with a dinette that makes a double bed at the front, a single bed and bunk beds in the middle. With her original fridge door intact, beautiful wooden interior and strawberry and gingham curtains how can anyone resist this beach babe’s charms?
- Glamping Caravan - Dee Dee — Dee Dee is a very special old girl. Born in Ohio in 1959 she was the no. 173 Tradewind off the production line.
She’s a Southern Belle who has spent her days in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, looking across the Atlantic Ocean. She finally crossed the ocean in 2010 to spend her golden days in the tranquillity of sunny Suffolk.
Dee Dee is a four-berth trailer, with a seating area that converts to a double at the front and twin beds in the middle.
She is a bygone beauty with her gingham curtains and lovely wooden interior. Dee Dee is a vintage lady who exudes old-style class.
- Glamping Caravan - Wanda — Wanda is a beautiful Streamline Countess who came to us from Perrysville Ohio. She was in a sad unloved state and is our biggest renovation, but oh so worth it! Streamline’s are extremely rare in the UK, we are only aware of two others!
Based in Thornton Indiana, the Streamline company only existed for 17 years. Our Wanda was born in 1963 and spent all her life in Ohio. When we received the title and saw a previous owner had been called Wanda we instantly knew we would never find a better name for her so Wanda it was.
With her distinctive gold stripe, Wanda is certainly eye-catching. She’s a 4 berth trailer with a double bed in her sleeping section and an awesome turquoise vinyl dinette that makes another double bed. She has plenty of wardrobe space, turquoise and pink curtains, a fabulous original pink sink and a pink and grey checkerboard floor. She is a thing of rare beauty!
