The location is remote, and the garden is so beautiful and well thought out and creative. Gives you a real feel of wild camping with taste. Very quirky , warm and a peaceful atmosphere. I loved how it is well kept but also has a real sense of wilderness , natural growth and rustic feel to it. Loved all the little touches such as the jungle shower and tree bog. The Gypsy caravan was perfect , comfortable and placed in it’s own private hidey hole with a separate shed with gas cooker, table and chairs. Loved my stay there and will defiantly go back again. The hosts are really lovely too was a please to meet Marie and Mark, Thank you for having me.

Marie & Mark at Alde Garden
Alde Garden is a tiny, quiet wildlife garden in the heart of the Suffolk countryside, yet just 20 mins drive from coastal locations such as Aldeburgh, Southwold & Dunwich. Accommodation is set amongst trees & wildflowers, and each has its own private secluded space beside it. The site is very environmentally friendly, and suits those looking for a break away from it all. There is no electricity in the garden, except for a small area near the toilets where guests will find a fridge, microwave, charging point & washing machine. There are clean indoor showers and toilets, as well as an outdoor 'jungle shower' and 'treebog' composting loo. There is a lovely firepit where guests can enjoy the peace and tranquility of a starlit sky amongst the company of other guests. Alongside the garden is The Sweffling White Horse - also run by the owners of Alde Garden. The pub is a small, award-winning alehouse selling locally produced ales and other drinks and snacks. The gypsy caravan itself has a pull-out double bed, and a small bed underneath suitable for small children. It has solar powered fairylights and a woodburning stove. Next to the caravan is a shelter for cooking and eating - with a gas hob. Bedding is not included - please bring your own. You can find lots more information about Alde Garden - including photos - by using a search engine.
Marie & Mark have a lifelong love of camping and look foward to welcoming you to Alde Garden. Alde Garden has been trading for 14 years and was Suffolk's first glamping site. It has won many environmental awards. For more information about Alde Garden please use a search engine
