Church Farm Holiday Park is set in 30 acres of wooded parkland just 50 metres from the beach in the remarkable and sophisticated town of Aldeburgh, Suffolk and located within a quiet unspoilt resort about ½ a mile south of Thorpeness, Suffolk. Aldeburgh is an expceptional place to visit, benefiting from a unique seaside splendour that is Suffolk's glorious Heritage Coast. At its heart is the traditional fishing community of Aldeburgh, stretching along the shingle causeway to the pretty holiday village of Thorpeness.

Aldeburgh was developed on the site of a medieval fishing, shipbuilding and port site and derives its name from the Anglo Saxon term for an "old fort". The seafront is now a conservation area and it remains completely unspoilt in a delightful position between the sea and river Alde. Bordering the park to the North is the RSPB wetland conservation area, ideal for those interested in wildlife and caravan touring.

Opening Hours

Seasonal Dates: Open March - Close end of December. Touring Pitches available from the 1st April to 31st October (Caravans and Motor homes only).
