Electric hook up at The Cyder Farm

Electric hook up campsite Suffolk is a bit of a long phrase, but it’s the easiest way to explain what these pitches are. They’re simple, relaxed spots with power, right beside the lake on our smallholding. If you like having electricity for the basics, these pitches make life a bit easier. They work well for caravans, campervans and tents that need a steady supply for lights, cool boxes or little bits of kit. We don’t have many of them, so they tend to get booked quickly once the warmer weather kicks in.

When you pull in, you’ve got enough space to get yourself sorted without feeling packed in. There’s the sound of birds most of the day, the odd splash from the carp, and the general quiet that comes with being tucked away in Ilketshall St Lawrence. It’s a gentle sort of place to camp. Nothing busy. Nothing rushed.

Electric hook-up

The EHU points give you the kind of power you need for calm, normal camping. Things like:

  • lights and lanterns
  • charging phones or cameras
  • cool boxes or low-draw fridges
  • air pumps and similar bits

It keeps everything ticking along without needing to run your van or fiddle around with extra kit.

⚠️ A note about high-powered equipment

The system here isn’t built for heavy electrical appliances. It’s a campsite supply, not a house supply, so the bigger items can overload it pretty fast. Things like:

  • electric heaters
  • kettles
  • microwaves
  • toasters
  • air fryers
  • hair dryers

Any of these can trip the power for everyone on that circuit. We always ask guests to stick with low-draw gear and treat the hook-up like a steady drip rather than a full-on mains supply.

You’ll also want a minimum 5m cable to reach the box comfortably. Ten metres is even better if you’ve got one.

A bit more about the area

These pitches sit around the lake in a loose way, not in perfect rows or anything like that. You get a bit of breathing room and a proper countryside feel. The hot tub is close by, and it’s one of the nicest spots at sunset. You’ve also got easy access to the fishing lake if you fancy a few hours by the water.

If you want to get out and explore, we’re not far from Bungay, the Broads or the coast. You can find more campsite details or fishing info using the links below.
