The Oaks Caravan Park

Practical Caravans Top 100 Parks Awards 2006

The Oaks is an adults-only site surrounded by peaceful Suffolk countryside. It enjoys an excellent location, close to the Viking burial grounds of Sutton Hoo, and is within a short drive of Felixstowe’s beach, promenade and noted Sunday market.
A large patio area next to the reception provides seats where you can relax with friends and watch players on the boules courts, and on the croquet and quoits pitches. It’s also a great spot for al fresco meals, and barbecues are made available for campers to use. If you want to work off all those sausages, you can hire a bike from reception and explore the surrounding lanes and villages. The flat countryside makes for easy cycle routes, whatever your fitness levels. For the less energetic, a courtesy bus service runs from the site into the village. There’s also a local bus service that stops outside the site and will take you to neighbouring towns. A new facility for the disabled is now under construction.
This site is a breath of fresh air, with friendly owners and staff who keep the place in tip-top order.
