Camping Holiday
We stayed here for 2 weeks in August 2026, we were greeted with a cup of coffee and biscuit, shown to our pitch wich is very large. We had a wonderful stay, Graham and Mary are really good hosts coming round every day to make you feel welcome. The facilities were clean and plenty of hot water, i would recomend this site to anybody wishing to explore Nrfolk and the broads.

Thank you for your lovely review, it was a pleasure meeting you. Graham & Mary
Great stay once again.
Another fantastic stay at The Old Sun. Mary and Graham are lovely hosts. A welcome drink and biscuit when you arrive which we have never experienced in all our years of camping/ motorhoming. Lovely facilities and a gorgeous view. What more could you want. Thanks Mary and Graham.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Fantastic to see you all as usual. Thank you for everything. G & M
Peaceful haven
We stayed here for eight nights and enjoyed the lovely hospitality of Mary and Graham. A pot of tea on arrival (much appreciated) and a warm welcome. Facilities are excellent with a good shower and WC available. Recycling on site is always a plus for us and was easy to use.
We would highly recommend this quiet Certificated site if you want a convenient place to stay on the Norfolk/Suffolk border.

Great little site
The Old Sun Inn is a great little quiet relaxed site. The owners (Mary and Graham) are very friendly and welcoming and a brew delivered to your pitch after the intros and tour of the site. The pitches are spacious and nicely positioned and a good sized gently sloping field. The fire pit in the corner is a great spot to socialise with new found friends. The facilities are basic but very clean and the shower is a constant hot. The little visitor room has a good little selection of items you may well have forgotten which you can purchase and put the money in an honesty box. The freezer has bags of free ice to which we made good use of this last sweltering week. If you’re looking for a more intimate, basic but clean site that’s not going to feel crowded and extremely reasonable fees, then The Old Sun Inn has to go on your shortlist.

Short break
We loved our stay here. The pitch we had was perfect, large and tucked in a shady spot, but room enough to move into the sun. The owners are very friendly.

Best CS by far
The Old Sun campsite is the best CS we have been to and is our new favourite site. Not only is the location great the owners, Mary and Graham, are so friendly and helpful. Mary came to see us with treats for our little dog and spent a while chatting. The site is really spacious with a river running at the bottom of the site. We spent a whole evening sitting by the river and saw a Kingfisher and Bark Owls flying back and forth with their prey. There is also a firepit to use for barbecues, which we did, and then turned it into a fire to sit round on the logs. The other facilities were brilliant as well. shower, toilet and an extremely well stocked information room with everything you need to know about the area, as well as a washing up area and the usual water and toilet disposal areas. We will be back very soon and on multiple occasions in the future. Thank you Mary and Graham for running a great site.

Lovely stay for wedding anniversary
We stayed at the Old Sun for 4 nights last week .
From the moment we arrived we felt at home,we have camped for many years and stayed at some lovely sites but never have we been greeted with tea and biscuits ,all beautifully presented,it was such a lovely thought.
The site itself is so well equipped with everything you need and Graham was very helpful lending us an extension when our electric lead fell a bit short.
With Bungay and Beccles on the doorstep it all added up to a perfect anniversary weekend for us,we will be back soon.

Thank you so much for your lovely review. Hope to see you again soon. G & M
A Gem of a site, beautifully presented and equipped
I was welcomed by Graham with a cup of tea and biscuits, who then showed my my ample pitch for camping. The site is small and private, ideal for those who enjoy peaceful surroundings, being adults only. The toilet, shower and washroom facilities were spacious, clean and well provisioned. The other facilities showed thoughtful planning by someone who understands the needs of campers. The microwave was handy to reheat meals that I brought and there were numerous provisions if they were needed, paid in a honesty box. A great site for experienced and responsible campers.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you for your kind words, we hope to see you again. G & M
Best certificated site
We received the warmest welcome from Mary and Graham along with a hot cup of tea and biscuits. The site is really pretty with views over the brook to the woods. The pitches are spacious and there is a spotless toilet and shower with plentiful hot water. The little lounge in the stable block has everything you could possibly need including loads of tourist information, a fridge with fresh items like milk, eggs and bacon and a cupboard with those items you might have forgotten even dog poo bags! Thank you for a brilliant stay

A quiet gem with fantastic owners
We had a wonderful stay at this caravan site. Graham and Mary are lovely, welcoming hosts—even offering tea and coffee on arrival.
The site is immaculate, quiet, and very peaceful. Great facilities too, including a fridge/freezer for ice packs and a small selection of essentials if you need anything.
Plenty of local information and OS maps available, and a large dog exercise field.. Access is good, and it’s clear the owners really understand what campers need.
Highly recommend—we’ll definitely be back!
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you it was lovely to meet you, hopefully see you again very soon. G & M
Wonderful site a return visit for us and we’ll be back.
Such friendly hosts Graham & Mary, who welcome you with a cuppa as you set up. There excellent facilities at the site which are always clean and tidy. Everything you could want for your stay.
The site itself has lovely views across to open field and woods, lots of nature to observe.
It is also very dog friendly, with easy access to nearby walks from the site.
We found this site last year and loved it then, our second visit and we will be back.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
It was lovely to see you both again, will catch up again soon we hope. G & M
Perfect
As we arrived we were greeted by Graham, who pointed out the various stations for water, drainage etc. We were also treated to a pot of tea and biscuits whilst we set up. We were positioned in the ‘Naughty Corner’ which was an ideal spot. Mary also came to see us and was very helpful in talking through what we wanted to do and see. Sitting by the stream was a delight, listening to the birds and watching the various wildlife. The site was well cared for and ideal for our short stay. We will definitely return, and will be recommending this site to others.

Thank you so much for your lovely review, it was great to meet you. G & M
Amazing as always
Mary and Graham are the best hosts. We love this little gem. Quite, stunning views across the little brook at the end of the field. The dogs have voted this their favourite place to stay
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you guys, it is always lovely to see you and the girls. See you again soon. G & M
Wonderful hosts, lovely site.
Graham and Mary are wonderful hosts and really helpful and friendly .
The site is large, open and quiet. Benefiting from being adults only especially at school holiday times.
The field is sloping but overcome easily using ramps.

Nice quiet site
Very nice site, I would absolutely recommend this site to anyone wanting a lovely and peaceful campsite. We had to delay our arrival for a couple of days, and although they were due to close due to it being the end of the season, the owners kindly kept the site open a couple of extra days for us. The site is immaculate and tidy, and the facilities were always clean and well looked after.

Thank you so much for your review, hope to see you again. G & M
One of the best certified sites
We stayed for four nights in September 2025 while touring. A warm welcome from Graham an and Mary, with tea and coffee and biscuits, setting the tone of our stay. The facilities are in converted stables – shower and toilet in one, lounge in another – with a fridge freezer, microwave plus essential items for sale. The site has three level pitches on a grassed field, slopping down to other pitches and a stream. Bungay is nearby plus a cycle route, also bus routes from the village. We did walk down to the heath for our dog exercise, and we had the use of an adjoining field for the same. Overall one of the best certified sites we’ve visited.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you for you fabulous review. Hope to see you again one day. G & M
The Old Sun certainly shines
The perfect campsite to enjoy the tranquillity of the countryside. Mary and Graham are friendly and helpful. Where else are you offered tea and biscuits on arrival?The site and its facilities are clean and well-looked after.

Beautiful site
Very well maintained and beautiful site
Very warm welcome and an offer of tea or coffee on arrival which was not only a lovely gesture but also very welcome while setting up, nice area for exploring
Would recommend insect repellent as you are with in a wooded area if you are someone who is prone to being bitten.
Lovely seeing the wildlife.

Peaceful, quiet and spacious site.
What a lovely site. There were just five of us there with our vans. So much space too.
The loo and shower were well kept and very clean.
Mary and Graham were smashing, even produced a tray of tea and biscuits on our arrival.
This is in our top 10. We can’t wait for the new season to begin.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB

The Old Sun Inn Campsite
This is the best CS we have ever stayed on. When we arrived the owners came around with a most appreciated tray of refreshments, THANKYOU. The facilities were excellent, and spotlessly clean. Can’t praise the site sufficiently.

Thank you so much for your lovely words. It was lovely to meet you. G & M
Graham and Mary made us feel very welcome.
We had a nice relaxing break, the campsite was clean and tidy with everything well labelled and easy to find. It was an ideal location with lovely walks on the common which is just opposite, we hope to go back again soon.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you for your great review. It was lovely to have you stay with us. G & M
Lovely small site, very clean and well maintained.
We had a lovely stay here with our two dogs recently in our camper van.
We had a lovely welcome from the owners and coffee and biscuits were given to us on arrival, which is a really lovely gesture, so thank you.
We didn’t use the facilities as we only stayed for the one night to get away from home and used our own facilities in the van.
Other people on the site were really friendly and we had a good chat to everyone.
Dogs had a great time in the dog walking field and across the heath over the road. Good walk into Bungay, albeit it absolutely poured with rain!
Will definitely be staying again.
Thank you

The perfect spot
The Old Sun is a lovely and peaceful spot for a relaxing stay. You can really tell how much care the owners have taken to make sure you have everything you need, with lots of thoughtful and helpful details. We hope to be back.

Lovely well maintained site
Greated at the gate by the two lovely owners who explained the site over a cup of tea that they provided, very much welcomed after our journey. The the shower block was 1st class and the lounge area a very nice extra. A lovely site that we will visit again that I strongly recommend.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you for you wonderful review. Hope to see you again sometime G & M
Very nice quite pitches
Nice greeting and info of services which were all nice and clean. Bonus pot of tea on arrival.
WiFi available didn’t cover all pitches, perhaps a signal booster would resolve.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you for your review, we will look into a signal booster. Kind regards G & M
Lovely weekend
We had a 2 night stay at The Old Sun Camp site
What a lovely site everything is catered for
Mary and Graham are the perfect hosts
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Lovely to meet you both, hope to see you again sometime. G & M
Excellently appointed site in many ways
Mary and Graham have a gem of a site. It’s easy to find and village shops just down the road. The pitches are well spaced out and mostly level. A peaceful country location that’s well situated to explore Norfolk and Suffolk.
The shower/toilet/facilites are clean and more than adequate for the number of visitors to the site. Easy site access. We stayed for 4 nights which we could have happily extended- such a good place to getaway from everyone if you wanted to. Plenty of local wildlife on and around the site.
The cuppa on arrival was very welcoming, thank you Mary.
We will definitely be returning to The Old Sun as we have family in the area and couldn’t think of a better place to pitch up.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
It was so lovely to meet you and look forward to seeing you again. G & M
The perfect place to stay to recharge your batteries.
What an amazing little site this is. It all started on arrival when Graham met us at the gate and after showing us where all the facilities were, offered us tea or coffee. Such a lovely welcome.
In one part of the barn we found the Shower and toilet facilities were lovely and clean and in the other part of the barn amongst other things, there was a fridge where you could purchase food essentials.
Definitely be booking to come back that’s for sure.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thanks for your great review, fantastic that you enjoyed your stay. Hope to see you again G & M

Wonderful stay
After a four and a half hour drive we arrived here in very warm temperatures. We were lucky enough to get pitch 4 which was shaded. Graham brought us out a pot of tea, with biscuits! Such a lovely gesture and much appreciated by us.
The field was very well kept as were the toilet and shower. There was also a fridge with some basic supplies. All in all the perfect site if you want a peaceful stay on the Suffolk/Norfolk border. Ideally situated for trips to Norwich or to the south.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB

Wonderfull place
When we arrived we where welcome by very frendley owners and they served us a pot of tea.
Lots of space and very well kept toilet and shower.
The lawn also very well kept.
A very peacefull place for grownups.
Many thanks Michiel and Marijke

Peace
From the warm welcome to the friendly farewell we couldn’t have been treated better than we were at The Old Sun Campsite. The slightly sloping field in such a lovely setting was so peaceful and plenty of space between pitches. Only one toilet and shower for eight pitches might be an issue when the site is full, but we were only one of four for our stay. The facilities were clean and well cared for and a visitor’s lounge offered local information and use of a fridge/freezer as well as goodies for sale, including ice cream with an honesty box. The entrance gateway on arrival is a snug width, so be sure to approach from the right direction ( advice available on the site’s very good information page). Lovely lakeside walks on the doorstep if you have a dog and nearby post office, or a little further the town of Bungay, offer everything you may need. We will definitely return.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you, it was lovely meeting you. G & M
Super campsite
Lovely, small, adults only site but plenty of room for each van. Facilities are excellent, including a campers’ lounge with microwave! Great to be greeted with tea and biscuits! The owners are motorhomers and have sucessfully included everything they would want on a site themselves. Would definitely go back if we find ourselves near Bungay again.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you , it was lovely to meet you. G & M
A gem.
We knew we were going to be happy from the moment Mary asked if we would like a tea or coffee. We were in plot one AKA The Naughty Corner. This side of the site has the best views in my opinion. The site has so many extra facilities that others don’t. Eg a fridge and freezer with so many extra goodies. Mary’s own handicrafts and access to a beautiful little river. Saturday night saw us and 2 other couples along with Graham and Mary around the fire pit trying various shots and we put the world to rights and had a really good laugh. We were there for 4 nights but it wasn’t enough!
Buses stop right outside the gate. Broome heath is a short distance away and just a tiny bit further is a local Co op for any extras that you might need.
We will be back. And soon. Thank you Mary and Graham, you are marvels.
Shhh, let’s keep this gem to ourselves.

Lovely, small, quiet adults only site. Very thoughtfully run, a warm welcome, clean facilitates and some clever extras.

Thank you for the great review, it was lovely meeting you. G & M
A Delightful Tranquil Site.
Mary and Graham made us welcome.
And we were delighted to find so many nice touches to help us enjoy our stay. For example. A basic ounge area with a desk that had all the local information you would need. A fridge that was stocked with things that you could buy. Also a good toilet and shower area, which was always clean.
The Tranquility of the site mirrors the peacefulness of the area. A good place to get away from the pace of life, and a chance to reset.
We have used many C L’s in the UK and this site is one of the best, if not the best we have used.
We stayed for eight enjoyable days. And as we are mainly wild campers, its the longest we have ever stayed on any site, And all being well, we will enjoy the site again. Ours thanks to you both.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you for such a lovely review. It was a pleasure meeting you and if you are ever this way again you know where we are. M & G
Lovely quiet site and very welcoming
When we arrived we were greeted personally by Mary and Graham with a tray of proper old fashioned tea in a pot with cups and saucers accompanied by biscuits, what a lovely touch. The site itself is in a beautiful location next to open fields and woods with a small brook at the bottom of the camping field. The facilities consisted of a spotless shower and toilet together with a lounge area with seating and a fridge freezer containing a few essentials such as milk, bacon, bottled water and ice creams, all this was housed in an old stable block. The camping field is fairly flat at its top and then slopes down to the brook. The pitches are well spaced out and all have electric hookup. There is fresh water and an Elsan point together with a small outdoor washing up area with cold water.
All in all it is a great little camping site and we couldn’t have been made more welcome.

Fantastic site and hosts
We have stayed at the Old Sun before and it never fails to make us smile. Mary and Graham are amazing hosts. With tea and biscuits on arrival and fantastic facilities. This is our go too site if we want a quiet relaxing time away. Thank you Mary and Graham for this little piece of tranquility. See you very soon. And the 4 paws love it too.
Lovely safe, peaceful well maintained secure site
We stayed for 1 night and we would definitely return again.
We would highly recommend this site, we were greeted by Graham who was friendly and welcoming.
Later on Mary popped over to introduce herself and we had a lovely chat.

Excellent base for cycling
This is gem of a site. It’s set in beautiful surroundings and is quiet and private. The owners are most welcoming – providing guidance and a pot of tea and biscuits on arrival. The shower and toilet and spacious and clean. There’s a fridge and a freezer for guests. It is a beautiful rural location which is ideal for using as a base for cycling around the quiet country lanes. Bungay Co-op is nearby.

THE OLD SUN INN GREAT SITE
We first visited this site in 2022 and had a great stay so returned this year for another week. The owners are very warm and welcoming with a greatly appreciated cup of tea on arrival. The facilities are very clean and well cared for and the pitches are excellent. A peaceful haven for anyone wanting a quite relaxing site.
Fantastic CS site. Definitely be back.
We stayed for a week mid May. Absolutely amazing site with the most welcoming hosts we have ever had. Mary brought us over a large pot of tea & biscuits on arrival & that was so welcome. Perfectly kept, shower is excellent and lots of places to visit all around. We had an absolutely stunning sunset one night & also used the fire pit at the bottom of the field. Perfect peaceful break highly recommended & will return.

Peaceful haven
We stayed for 4 nights at the Old Sun. We were pitched in the “Naughty Corner” which was perfect for our little Pod. From the outset, there was a warm welcome with tea and biscuits as we set up in the rain and we quickly realised that this really was a gem of a site. Everything was spotlessly clean and well organised, clear signage without being bossy and a beautiful view across the surrounding woodland and fields. This definitely was a peaceful retreat and just right as a base for touring the local area. We will be back!
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Great to meet you both, loved your little “pod”. Looking forward to seeing you again, hopefully with better weather. G & M
Amazing little bit of heaven

Thank you
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
It was lovely to meet you both, looking forward to seeing you later in the year, fingers crossed for better weather!
Beautiful site and facilities
We stayed here for a week visiting family nearby and had a lovely peaceful stay.
Lovely well maintained grass pitches with beautiful views over a small valley to woodland.
The site has the convenience of a lounge, shower, toilet and for dog owners the convenience of a mowed paddock.
The owners are extremely nice folk and we were welcomed with a pot of tea, which was lovely after a 180 mile drive.
Welcoming
Loved this little site, well organised, owners greeted us on arrival, provided us with coffee. Very convenient for walk into Bungay. Reasonable bus service with bus stop 15 minutes walk away. Good amount of information in a folder
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you for your lovely review, it was great to meet you. There is actually a bus stop right outside for some bus routes but you might have missed it. Look forward to seeing you again if you are ever in the area

Thank you for you great review. Hopefully see you again if you are ever in the area.
Lovely immaculate site
Thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay over the Easter weekend. Met by Mary on arrival with tea and biscuits. Then shown the facilities which were kept immaculately clean, with the added bonus of a lounge area where you could borrow books, dvds or get provisions that you had maybe forgotten (milk, eggs, bacon amongst other items). Great peaceful little site for adults only. Within walking distance of Bungay. Would definitely recommend.

Wonderful site and owners
After another relaxing stay, we can honestly say, that The Old Sun is our favourite site, and we will definitely be booking again very soon. Graham and Mary are fantastic owners of the site, and nothing is too much trouble, we could not want for better. Looking forward to our next stay in 2023, when we will be booking for a longer visit. 10/10. We highly recommend this site to everyone.

Excellent site
Arrived to a very warm welcome by the owners to a very spacious and well kept site. Facilities were the best we have encountered for a CS. Just a pleasant 1.5 mile walk to historic Bungay; shop & pub close by. Would recommend.

Best Little CS Ever.
Peaceful and beautiful surroundings. Graham & Mary are friendly and helpful hosts. We loved the extra little touches they’ve made to their services, the camper’s lounge/kitchen, shower and toilet and even the outdoor washup with sponge/brush/soap provided. We’re looking forward to our next visit.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB

Love this site!
A peaceful beautifully kept site and facilities. We saw kites, a buzzard and woodpeckers from our pitch. Well stocked shop up the road and pub within walking distance. Mary and Graham are fantastic hosts. Definitely one of the best little sites to stay.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
It was so lovely to see you again, hopefully get to spend more time with you next time.

Great camping.
We are two retired adults with two dogs and a motorhome and are recently back from our first 3 day stay at this little gem of a campsite.
From the warm welcome on our arrival, to the friendly farewell, Mary made us feel at home.
We were staying over the two hottest days of the year… at 35c & 37c and with dogs it was impossible for us to go anywhere safely because of the heat so, as we didn’t need ehu and with Mary’s blessing, we camped adjacent to the beck, under the shade of mature trees, where our dogs kept safe and cool playing in the water throughout our stay and we sat in our deck chairs in the shade enjoying a very relaxed time catching up on our reading.
The facilities at this very spacious, 5 unit site were above and beyond. In the converted stable block was a loo and shower and a lounge area which included a-serve-yourself shopping corner with honesty box with all the basic foods/ toiletries you may have forgotten to bring; books, dvds and games to borrow on your stay, but best of all a large fridge/freezer for campers’ use which Mary & Graham kept stocked with a huge bag of ice for our drinks – which we made great use of during the heat! All this was included in the £16 p.n. tariff.
The site was clean and well kept and one to which we will certainly return so we can get chance to explore the local area in slightly cooler weather!
Thank you Graham & Mary.

Wonderful time at the Old Sun Broome
Spent a wonderful time at the Old Sun campsite Broome. Situated in a very well keep field with hookup. Beautiful views. Immaculate shower and loo. Lovely owners who were so kind and friendly . It had a lovely fire pit corner with an ample supply of fire wood to use a freely as you like. Very well kept grey waste and wash up area. Less than half a mile to a lovely pub. We feel we have been “recharged “ after staying here. Thoroughly recommend it and will definitely stay again .

Fabulous site
We booked in for 4 nights over the Jubilee long weekend. This is a beautiful site with fab views over the local countryside and wildlife. Plenty to do in the surrounding area and a great little pub within walking distance, what more could we ask for! The facilities are spotless and our hosts Mary & Graham were fantastic and could not be more welcoming. Nice touch is the fire pit at the bottom of the field and we had a couple of evenings of people getting together for a couple of drinks over the fire. I could not recommend this site highly enough and we will absolutely be booking again.

It was lovely to meet you both, and share our stories around the fire pit. G & M
Great 7 night stay
We had a great 7 night stay at The Old Sun and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an Adult Only site with facilities in an excellent location. Toilet and Shower was very clean. Whole site was in excellent condition. Hosts were very welcoming and passionate about their little CL.

May break ☀️
Booked this adult only site for 6 days & we enjoyed our time spent there. The hosts Graham & Mary made us so welcome & gave us useful information about the area. It’s a large quiet site with plenty of room . There is a shower & toilet, also a small lounge with lots of little extras provided & items to buy. There are local bus services to various places. We took a bus to Norwich x2 return & cost £10. There’s a Nisa shop within a mile & local town approximately 2 miles. We hope to return to explore more around the area.

What a wonderful site.
We stayed at The Old Sun for 2 nights recently. We are campers of many years standing and I can honestly say that this is the best site of its type that we have ever been to. Nice field, great facilities, cheerful and helpful hosts. We urge you to stay away, we want this one all to ourselves .

Friendly quiet site
This is a lovely spot with great views. Owners were very friendly and helpful. The site is very well maintained and the facilities spotless. Just one shower and toilet which is perfectly adequate as it is small site. They are charmingly located in an old stable block. There are also dishwashing up facilities with lighting although no hot water. There is a pub in walking distance although we did not visit due to rather erratic opening times. All in all a great place to stay.

Great weekend break at The Old Sun, Bungay
The Old Sun, is a Great site. Large field, plenty of space. Spotless facilities. Very quiet. Our friends stayed in the Airbnb attached to the house which was fantastic.
Dog walking across the road.
Very good hosts as well. Will definitely visit again.

Peace and quiet
Second stay at this beautiful place, Mary and Graham run a very relaxed site, the facilities are spot on for a site of this size, perfectly located for exploring Norfolk with its lovely beaches and the broads, an added attraction for me was the carp fishing at Broome pits just a few hundred yards away, a day ticket water, with carp to 35lbs.
Will definitely be back, and would highly recommend it.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Lovely to meet you both again, and glad that you caught a fish this time. G & M
Lovely tranquil campsite
Lovely open field with lots of walking and cycling opportunities on your doorstep. The owners are friendly and helpful, the field is ample and tranquil – although sloping in most parts so you would most probably need levellers and the facilities – although we didn’t use them – were clean and ample.
Thank you for a lovely few days.

Our stay
Mary & Graham are outstanding hosts. Everything you want or need is available. The fire pit is a great addition…..on our last evening we had all the campers join us for a friendly chat & drink, very sociable. On my birthday during our stay Mary & Graham brought a cake with candle! How lovely is that. If you are looking to stay in the Bungay area we highly recommend you try this site.

Beautifully quiet CS
This is by far one of the best CS sites we have ever been on. It is quiet, the facilities are spotlessly clean. Thought has been given to everything you may need. Had a wonderful evening at the fire pit with everybody joining in.. The hosts, Graham and Mary are so welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. The grass is cut short and cuttings are collected so no walking them into your caravan. All in all a great site. We will without a doubt will be returning.

We enjoyed the Old Sun for the second time. We were looking for somewhere near Beccles last year and so enjoyed our time we were very happy to return this year. The site is well appointed and everything is very well kept. It is clean and tidy and Mary and Graham work hard to give a good welcome and make sure everything is in order. The facilites are good and provide all that is required.

Immaculate and quiet hideaway site
Just reached home after a superb 5 night stay at this rather excellent CS.
This was our second stay at The Old Sun having previously stayed a year ago between lockdowns.
Attention to detail seems to be the owners buzz word and every facility was in fine order.
The chemical loo and grey water disposal points were handily placed as was the drinking water tap and open air washing up sink/waste bins/recycling bins.
As we had our own onboard facilities, we didn’t use the on site shower or loo but they looked spotless.
Graeme and Mary (the owners) are a friendly and charming couple and run a first class site.
We can heartily recommend this quality site and will be returning ASAP.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
It was wonderful to see you both again and thank you for staying with us. See you again soon G & M
Relaxing stay
A superb adult only campsite that has been well thought out in terms of layout and facilities.
Graham and Mary are excellent friendly hosts and it was a pleasure meeting them.
The site has shower and toilet block a guest room with all manner of items even bits of shopping you might have forgotten or ran out of. Outside washing up area, a fire pit areaand another field for you to walk your dog in.
Broome village is 5 mins walk with a local dog friendly pub. Broome heath is 5 mins walk away with lots of trails to follow and big fishing lakes. Ditchingham was 5 mins walk with a local shop and American dinner. Bungay was 15 mins walk with a variety of shops, eating places, pubs and a castle ruin.
Lots of places to walk with good paths and trails.
We would definitely recommend this site to anyone wanting a great stay for adults only and we will be definitely back ourselves for another visit.
Well done Graham and Mary.

Peaceful, friendly site
We stayed at this small site for one night, were welcomed on arrival and told where everything was if we needed it, we were self contained but there were showers, toilet and fridge/freezer and ice if you needed it. The site was very gently sloping, but fine with chocks, and we had loads of space right next to a stream. We used their adjacent field for dog exercising, both fields were well mowed. A fabulous heath with fishing lakes just opposite down the road, could walk for miles with our dog. A very pleasant stay, thank you.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you so much for you great review, it was lovely to meet you both G & M
A little Gem I am so happy to have found
Mary was the perfect host with the perfect idea of what a campsite should offer. Well kept shower and toilet room. Beautiful pitch and so quiet! Also ready to assist or offer suggestions on where to visit/ explore. I’ve been camping for many years, and this is hands down the best place I have stayed. Ticked all the boxes. My friend and I were in a tent right next to the river. Just pure bliss! There is also a firepit which a few of us sat around with a drinks, chatting. I cannot wait to go back!

First Adventure
This was our first caravan trip out and we couldn’t have asked for more. The Old Sun campsite was just perfect, the facilities were top notch and Graham and Mary were model hosts. We will definitely be visiting again.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
We are so pleased that you stay with us on your maiden voyage. It was great meeting you and having drink around the fire pit. G & M
Brilliant site, great location and excellent hosts.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Old Sun campsite. It exceeded our expectations in every way. We were camping in a tent, meeting up with friends after lockdown. The site was first class. It was very spacious, with huge camping pitches and Graham and Mary ensure there are only a small number of units at any one time – usually a maximum of 5 or 6 at once. The site is very quiet, in the middle of nature, with like minded campers.
The facilities are very good and are kept clean and Covid safe – a nice toilet block with very good shower, a well equipped guest lounge, with local information, a utility area with washing up facilities, a dog walking area and a large communal fire pit at the bottom of the camping field for an evening get together and drink.
The local area is really nice. Just across the road is Broome Heath and it’s four (fishing) lakes, ideal for local walks. A little further away (1-2 miles) is the lovely town of Bungay, with its beautiful old buildings, riverside walks, common and some excellent cafes. There is a supermarket in Bungay, but there are two larger ones a little further away in Beccles.
The hosts, Graham and Mary, are the icing on top of the cake. They are very friendly, without being overbearing, and do everything they can to make your stay memorable (in the right way!) one. They are experienced campers and have made their site as one they would like to visit themselves. They have certainly succeeded!

Bags of space
We have never stayed on a site that has such generous pitches,. this small and well kept site provides all that you require and having only a handful of pitches you never feel crowded. All precautions have been taken in view of Covid, so you feel safe. The hosts are very welcoming and eager to help if you have any questions on the area. This is probably now our go to campsite
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you for your kind words. We are so happy that you enjoyed you stay with us and look forward to meeting you again. G&M
The owners of this small site have paid much attention to detail such as one might find on a much larger club site.
This is a lovely site run by Mary and Graham who couldn’t be more helpful. We were booked in for ten days but unfortunately we had to curtail our visit because of a technical fault with our caravan (a serious water leak). Mary and Graham did what they could to help us out but it is a workshop job.
If we choose to visit Norfolk again this site would be high on our list of choices and we would highly recommend it.
Response from The Old Sun Campsite & AirBNB
Thank you for the lovely review, so sorry that we couldn’t help fix your van. I hope it gets sorted very soon. G&M
Friendly and well organised caravan and camp site.
As experienced motorhomers, Mary and Graham know what is needed on a camping and caravan site, and ‘The Old Sun’ is extremely well organised and managed, with a light and friendly touch. The facilities are kept in immaculate condition , and the beautiful location, evident careful planning and easy manner were much appreciated. Absolutely first class!

What a lovely place to stay
We arrived at the Sun to find a warm welcome, fantastic facilities and beautiful position for a site. The view that greats you on site is stunning. The wild life is amazing. We saw wild deer wandering along through the woods the bottom of the field. Kites and Buzzards were flying over head and the occasional fly past of the owl in the early evening. If you are looking for a peaceful and relaxing place to stay the Sun is the place to be. The hosts Mary and Graham cannot do enough to help make you’re stay a great experience. Will be return.

Peaceful relaxing site
Lovely spacious and peaceful site. Friendly and helpful owners who are themselves motorhomers. They have thought of everything to make your stay as easy and comfortable as possible. Immaculately clean facilities and well kept site. Although within easy walking distance of the town of Bungay you feel in the middle of the countryside & we saw kites, deer and wagtails while we were there. Highly recommended.

Wonderful campsite with thoughtful touches
My husband and I had a marvellous time at The Old Sun. It was our first visit in our motorhome and we took our bicycles as we had heard of the cycle route network in the Bungay area. The site was tidy and the stable block which had been converted into a bathroom with loo and sitting room (with games and books to borrow and a fridge/freezer to use) was scrupulously clean. There were also thoughtful extras like eggs and milk in the fridge and fresh herbs and cherry tomatoes for guests to pick.
The cycling in the area was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hosts went out of their way to make us feel welcome.
Very pretty small site with friendly owners
We were warmly greeted by Mary who showed us the facilities (shed with loo and shower and spacious room with basin, and adjoining room with large fridge and local info) and kindly sold us a box of her own eggs as we’d left ours behind! Lovely small site with three electric hookups. We were lucky to have the place to ourselves. Wi fi in the van was a bit iffy but worked fine outside! Near Bungay and the coast – we discovered Cove Hithe which was wonderful. Would certainly go again.
Another fantastic stay at the Old Sun !
This is my second stay at the Old Sun CL site. I was celebrating my birthday so we booked their Air B&B as well for my parents to stay in while we stayed in their lovely paddock overlooking the forest and brook. Fantastic facility’s and attention to detail …. nothing has been forgotten which is also mirrored in their Air B&B. I will certainly be returning in our Motorhome again next year. Very close to Beccles and Bungay and a 19 mile drive to the coast and Southwold (Adnams country) so book it now ….you wont be disappointed . Graham and Mary are wonderful hosts.
Autumn break
A lovely site with every convenience, far beyond the requirements of a CL. Always a warm and friendly welcome from Graham and Mary who take great pride in keeping an exceptionally good site. Highly recommended. We shall return.
A very welcoming site
Graham and Mary are the most friendly couple you would wish to meet. We only stayed 3nights but will definitely visit them again. We had a brilliant evening round their camp fire.
Fantastic Site!
Best CS we’ve been to ! Mary and Graham very friendly and helpful. Site immaculate and facilities second to none. Lots of thoughtful touches – they’ve thought of everything from spare bits of kit you may have forgotten to milk in fridge of lounge area.
Definitely highly recommended. Thanks Mary and Graham.
Lovely quiet clean site
Thank you very much for a lovely 5 night stay. Owners very friendly and welcoming. Facilities kept clean and tidy and large field is mown grass. Easy access to Bungay and Beccles and lovely quiet lanes for cycling.
Quiet hideaway.
Really enjoyed our stay at The Old Sun camp site. Quiet and well maintained with very welcoming hosts, nothing too much trouble. We look forward to visiting again.
Restful oasis and near the coast
This campsite is a hidden gem in the Norfolk countryside. Immaculate facilities including a small lounge for guests with a fridge & freezer. The site is a large well kept field with plenty of space for the 5 allowed units.
Certainly a place I will revisit when the opportunity arises.
Cant rate you highly enough
Our ideal site, Extremely clean toilets and showers, friendly site owners, dog friendly, lots of walks nearby, stunning site, Bats (I love em), couple of good pubs nearby, nice town 30min walk away with plenty of history, pubs and restaurants to keep you busy. Will definitely be back for a bit longer next time. Was a shame to leave.
Round robin trip
Stopped here for two nights on the way back from Norfolk. Friendly owners, large well kept field with nice vista of trees, excellent site facilities and location. Ideal for dog walking with heath opposite.
Will be back.
Quiet site with excellent facilities
Such a lovely quiet site not far from Broome Pits which is excellent for dog walks. Very friendly hosts who have made a welcoming site with both shower/WC facilities and a small lounge area with some kitchen essentials in case you run out and lots of local information.
Simply the best!
This little site is a real gem. We have stayed in many small CS sites, much preferring them to bigger commercial sites; this site was fabulous! We loved the warm welcome from our super hosts Graham and Mary who made sure we were happily settled in the day we arrived. They have thought of all the small details that make for super holidays, such as the honesty bar for items you might have forgotten, the stable lounge area and the selection of handmade fabric face masks to purchase (made by Mary to support a local charity), A highlight for us was the communal fire pit, perfect for sharing stories with other campers! We hope one day we will be back. Thank you both 🙂
Returned one year on. So glad we did.
Stayed a year ago and enjoyed a very relaxing stay, everything available, plus so much more. This year we returned and ended up staying 6 nights instead of 4. We think this site is one of the best we’ve stayed at. Our hosts are so accommodating and go the extra mile.
Thanks again Mary and Graham.
Tranquil beauty
A really lovely, tranquil place to make our base. A beautiful site with trees and grass and even a fire pit. The owners were very welcoming And informative and the facilities spotless. Fantastic
A little gem
A lovely secluded site hidden away on the Norfolk/Suffolk border, with space for 4 motorhomes. Toilet and shower now available. The local village Is in easy walking distance, as is Bungay. Site is well kept with expansive grass areas and a stream at the bottom. Plenty of pitch room for an awning.. we thoroughly enjoyed our stay
Brilliant week - site has been well thought out
We stayed in Motorhome for a week from 5th August. Arrived to find brand new shower was operational from our first day. Toilet and shower are great, and everything was spotless . Communal lounge area is a great idea especially for colder evenings. Free ice cubes very welcome in the heat. Temporary caretaker Derek was so helpful. A pleasure to spend time on a lovely site.
Amazing hosts
Lovely clean and welcoming site. The hosts couldn’t be more helpful or welcoming.
Can’t wait to go again.
Quiet location
This site is in a lovely quiet location. We explored the local area by bike; Bungay, Beccles and Loddon were all easily accessible. Our hosts were very welcoming and had provided everything that we might have needed.
Nice site, near Bungay.
Very friendly couple. Nice slightly sloping pitch with a brook at the bottom. Clean facilities very useful “lounge” with essential like milk, eggs etc for sale in fridge where you can also freeze your own freezer packs.
Great base for exploring north Suffolk or Norfolk.
Immaculately maintained
Immaculately maintained, lovely and quiet, very friendly hosts, in a beautiful area, 10 minutes from Beccles. Definetely come again.
