Rushbanks Farm Caravan and Camping Site

11/09/2025

🔥⚰️ Welcome to the Rushbanks Firepit Graveyard… where brave pits come to burn bright, sizzle sausages, and then retire with honour. We lose around 10 a year (RIP old friends 🪦), but nothing truly goes to waste — their legs live on in the next generation of pits. ♻️💪

So if you’re joining us this final weekend of the season (we close 15th Sept!) you’ll be sitting round a fire with a little history under your marshmallows. 😉🔥✨

And don’t forget — this Saturday 13th September the iconic Sudbury to the Sea 🚣‍♀️🚣‍♂️ will pass right through Rushbanks. Over 300 canoes and kayaks gliding by = the best riverside show of the year! 🌊🌿

👉 Book your pitch now, grab your spot by the riverbank, and be part of our season finale:

✨ So many ways to camp, one special place to do it… ✨

At Rushbanks Farm we love seeing the amazing ways our guests make this riverside spot their own. 🏕️💚
From cosy bell tents under the stars 🌙, to family tents filled with laughter 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦, snug caravans 🚐, and groups of friends around the campfire 🔥 – every set-up tells its own story. Some arrive solo for peace and quiet 🌿, others with kids ready for riverside adventures 🛶, and some just to switch off, unwind, and reconnect.
We’re always blown away by the creativity and spirit you bring to our little slice of Constable Country – thank you for sharing your photos and memories with us. 📸💛
