Rushbanks Campsite

Rushbanks Farm is a family-run campsite sitting directly on the banks of the River Stour in Dedham Vale (Constable Country), near the village of Nayland in Suffolk.

Open since the 1950s and now in its third generation of Bates family ownership, it is the only campsite with direct riverbank access on this stretch of the Stour.

The site accommodates tents, caravans, and campervans, with unmarked pitches spread across a riverside meadow. Pre-erected bell tents are also available.

There are no electrical hook-ups, and the atmosphere is deliberately low-key, with campfires permitted using on-site fire pits. Canoes and paddleboards are available to hire exclusively for guests, with a popular paddle route leading to a nearby pub.

Fishing is permitted during the fishing season.
