Stonham Barns holiday park at Stonham Aspal, Suffolk: Holiday homes, including Static Caravans and lodges, we offer Touring and Holiday Stays, beside a retail village, golf, fishing lakes and an owl sanctuary.

Stonham Barns sits in open mid-Suffolk countryside at Stonham Aspal, near Stowmarket. It began life as a farm and birds of prey sanctuary and has grown into a holiday park, retail village and events venue in one place. Cosgrove Leisure Parks took over the park in July 2026, keeping the Stonham Barns name.

The park has Static Caravans and Lodges, Our plans are to modernise the accommodation, add to the activities and improve the shops, introducing changes gradually so that guests and owners see continuity while the work goes on.

Plenty on the doorstep

Few parks have this much within a short stroll: more than 40 shops in the retail village, a nine-hole golf course, an adventure putting course and indoor golf simulators, fishing lakes, a traditional funfair, play areas and walks, and the Suffolk Owl Sanctuary. The Mid-Suffolk Showground on site hosts around 30 public events a year, from car shows to country music festivals.

A little history

Stonham means stone homestead, and the de Aspale family held the manor from 1292. In 1742 the local squire, Theodore Eccleston, replaced the five church bells with a ring of ten and built a bell chamber to house them at the church of St Mary and St Lambert. Today it is a quiet farming village in the middle of Mid Suffolk.
