Yurt, Tipi, Gypsy Caravan, cottage and camping accommodation in the Suffolk countryside

Our pub

Alde Garden is set in the grounds of the Sweffling White Horse – a 200-year old village pub which has recently re-opened it's doors after being closed over 8 years.

Lovingly restored by Marie & Mark - with a lot of help from friends and family - the pub reflects the same ethos as the campsite and cottage. The pub is heated entirely by wood - with a woodburning stove in the comfy lounge bar and a lovely old Esse range cooker (with back boiler to heat various radiators) in the public bar. Instead of a bar it has an old-style tap room where locally brewed real ales are served straight from the barrel. The pub also stocks some local spirits, a selection of fairtrade organic wines, soft drinks & a small array of speciality spirits. The pub doesn't serve sit-down meals, but for those wishing to stave off a hunger there is a selection of locally made very lovely pies, pasties and snacks on offer.

If you're into traditional pub games you won't be disappointed - the pub has a bar billiards table, dartboard, shove ha'penny, bagatelle and a few other treats. There is also a 'ringing the bull' game - a very traditional but now sadly quite rare pub game. 

The Sweffling White Horse is open four evenings a week:

Friday - 7pm to 11pm
Saturday - 7pm to 11pm
Sunday - 7pm to 11pm
Monday - 7pm to 11pm

...and another pub just a stone's throw from here:


Just half a mile (10 minute walk) from the site is the very lovely White Horse Rendham - a  cosy, old fashioned pub serving a selection of real ales straight from the cask. They also serve great home cooked meals, freshly prepared using locally sourced produce. The Rendham White Horse is open every evening and at the weekends it's also open for lunch.
