Great Yarmouth Racecourse Club Campsite
Well impressed with this Site. The Staff were friendly and helpful upon arrival and sorted us with an excellent spot. Facilities are clean, well maintained and a credit to the Team. We had a great time on site and visiting Great Yarmouth. Highly recommend, and we will certainly be back. Might even take in a race next time.
Very Friendly staff and great location

Easy check in process, even with race meeting going on. The couple who checked us in were very friendly and helpful, providing advise on best pitches and places to go locally.
The actual campsite was lovely, very level and it was a bonus to be next to the track whilst a meeting was on and to actually feel the horse go past - great atmosphere.
The next day there was no meeting and the campsite was beautifully quiet and was interesting watching the racecourse being tended to.
Would definiteley stay here again.
Tired.

Second time at this site. Toilets and showers immaculate. The campsite itself is very uneven and bare in places.So uneven in places the wife fell and needed trip to A&E. Suspected cracked rib. Can't work out why they keep going round on the mower..and no shop.
C/Club seem to stick to this 1.00pm arrival time even when the site is only 20% occupied. Bit too regimental. All in all not bad but afraid won't be making the long trip again.
Good BUT. . .
Great Yarmouth Racecourse Club CampsiteCustomer service is poor: I booked 3 nights which required full payment which surprised me as I thought I expected to pay a deposit but whatever. Arrived on the afternoon of the first night to be criticised that I’m late – I was expected the day before, that they stayed late waiting and criticised further that I hadn’t left my phone number so they could call me.
Not put off by this charm(less) offensive. I said Im sure I’ve the correct date – seems I was wrong and Id booked according to their online calendar and got the wrong day.
Accepting it was my error I said “OK, but surely they can put right the error”. After all the site is less than ½ full so they haven’t lost any business. The lady attempted this on the computer but was rejected. When she tried to alter the dates she said I need to pay a further £40!
Absolutey NO WAY! Ive paid £60 for 3 nights that’s tuned to 2 nights, now you want me to pay £40 for another??? Her colleague then suggested instead just satay the 2 remaining nights and then add 1 more separately for £19.90
She then said jokingly “I bet you wont come and stay again will you?”
Her attitude wasn’t encouraging so said I‘ll decide later.
The club or the site manager could have made a choice to say stay for the 3rd night at no extra fee. I wasn’t there on night 1 so I haven’t used any water/electricity, haven’t cost them anything in site costs, wages or management fees. Haven’t lost business by turning another customer away.
Instead try to rip me off with a double charge. I travel around a lot and post recommendations & opinions on the many motorhome groups I’m on. The C&MhC & their site staff have not done themselves any favours.
Two night stopover.

Nice site within walking distance of beach and River Bure Park.
Immaculate and plentiful facilities.
The surface is rather uneven, so take a torch as most of the bollards are unlit and it is almost a dark-skies area!
When they are watering the race-course the machine is quite nosy- tractor engine/pump running and the giant hose-reel is like a power hammer, however it’s probably a fairly infrequent process, we were unlucky.
