Primrose Paddock is a small, family-run touring campsite in the Mid Suffolk countryside at Athelington, a couple of miles outside the village of Stradbroke. The site sits about 5 miles from the little town of Eye and 6 miles from Framlingham, where Mary Tudor was proclaimed Queen of England at the castle, while Diss and its London mainline station are roughly 8 miles north. Pitches take tents, caravans and motorhomes, electric hook-ups are available, and there is a play area on site. Campfires are allowed, so evenings at Athelington belong to woodsmoke rather than passing traffic. Be clear about what this is: a handful of pitches in deep countryside, with no bar, no shop and no entertainment programme, so you will drive to Eye or Diss for a supermarket and the nearest sizeable choice of pubs. Primrose Paddock does not stay open through the winter. Fair warning on the admin, too: the site's own website is offline, no current prices are published anywhere reliable, and the recorded detail is thin. Ring Primrose Paddock on 01728 627157 to confirm opening dates, pitch availability and what a night actually costs before you set off for Suffolk.
