, Freston Hill

Off a busy road, large layby slightly hidden with trees feels secluded but you'll still hear some road noise , nice walks along estuary nearby. There is a bit of a slope.

Set back from busy road, secluded, but on a significant slope both downwards & cambered inwards. A bit sloped; we moved back down the road to a lower layby, albeit closer to the main road, but a much more level site, closer to the river with far better views across and stronger 4G signal too. Rubbish bin & responsible grey water discharge possible. Suitable any size van.

Quiet night after I’d litter picked the lay by. Short walk down to the river at sunset was beautiful and we parked so we could see the bridge. If you’re approaching from Ipswich it’s the 2nd lay-by after the lumpy bumpy one!

First time campervan tour. Stopped here to explore the area in the morning. Regular traffic until around 11pm, then pretty quiet. One other vehicle used the lay-by for a while, then drove off. Felt relatively hidden-away parked near the bin, thanks to trees and bushes.

Large parking off road, great place to park up! If you park the right way round you can look at the Orwell Bridge

A little bumpy and a little muddy but excellent spot for a night. Trees sufficient to aid in 'stealthing' a SWB van. One small litter bin, decent view of the Orwell bridge arching over the river Orwell. Minor infrequent noise from passing traffic but in no way intrusive. Full 4G phone reception on O2.
