A visit is a must.

Thank you Lorna and David we had a fab stay. All facilities excellent. If you are into bird/wildlife lots of places to visit nearby but you don't have to go anywhere to enjoy it. Red Kite regularly overhead, goldfinches, pied wagtails, mistle thrush and wren to mention a few. Not forgetting the hare that came to sit by our van late one evening. We will will be back especially for the homemade cakes Lorna and her mum bakes to buy from the freezer.

The best CL in the country

We vote Barleywood the best CL in England. Its no joke....We have tried many and this site beats them all. All pitches are flat and there is water and 16 amp power at every pitch area. A pretty little on site shop selling everything you might need plus much more plus local area information, maps and the like. A dog area should you need to go somewhere that is not dog friendly, home laid eggs by the roaming chickens and very clean and functional toilet and shower facilities. The addition now of a shepherds hut should you have non caravanning friends who would like to stay with you on site. Situated very close to Wells and the coast and a very good garden centre just down the road called Dells. Very powerful WIFI on site which is free. All this and its Adults only. Yipee! David keeps the site in fantastic condition at all times and is always about for a chat. Once again.. Thanks Barleywood. First Class and Gold Standard.

An excellent encore

It keeps raining when we stay here, so I'm giving it two stars. Just kidding! :-) Stayed here before, and enjoyed it, came back, and enjoyed it again. A lovely and peaceful spot with delightful owners and great facilities. Just about the only negative thing I can find to say is that it's close to a road along which people occasionally drive too fast late at night or early in the morning. But that's noticeable only because it's rare, and is hardly the fault of the site. We were woken early, but not by the road noise: by wild geese and various other fowl landing in the field next door and greeting the dawn very enthusiastically. I can think of worse ways to wake up! All in all, definitely recommended. I'm sure we'll be back for a third stay.

Perfect stay, beautiful site and lovely owners

What an absolute gem this site is, there is really nothing that Lorna and David have not thought of. The summerhouse contains fridge and freezer full of yummy food, drinks, ice creams etc. Hens lay delicious eggs right there on site. The site itself is very pretty and well laid out with lovely views over the fields. There is a nice quiet road to walk the dog along and it is so well placed for the beautiful area it’s in. I really enjoyed my weekend there, but be warned, it is so well loved it’s a devil to get booked in. Don’t let that put you off because it’s so worth it. We stayed with a friend who rented the shepherds hut, it is really lovely with its own garden and a hot tub (exclusive use for shepherds hut only). We had a wonderful weekend and can’t wait to book again and go back. Best CL I’ve ever stayed at, without a doubt.

Delightful

I can only agree with others: this is a delightful location, with great facilities, and very friendly owners. We had an enjoyable stay, despite the rain(!), and would be very happy to come back again.

Wonderful stay over Christmas

We absolutely loved Barleywood, spent 3 nights over Christmas and enjoyed every minute! Well spaced out pitches, lovely walks along the lane for the dogs ( they even stayed clean!) great facilities too. So quiet and peaceful and will definitely return . Amazed at how well drained the grass was even after a night of heavy rain. Thank you Lorna and David for creating such a special place .

Back again and will keep returning

Can't remember how many times we have been to Barleywood but it must be 15 to 20. Usual warm welcome from Lorna and David to their immaculate site. This is a site that we feel very comfortable on. Free wifi, 2 x toilets/showers, washing up facilities, washing machine, information point, newspaper delivery, serviced pitches all for just £15/night. Plenty of puns and shops around, Fakenham about 4 miles. The attraction for us is the wildlife and over the last 4 days counted over 30 species of birds whilst sitting in the van. Birdwatching opportunities at: Sculthorpe community nature reserve Burnham Norton Burnham Overy Staithe Stifkey NWT Cley RSPB Titchwell RSPB Snettisham NWT Holme

Lovely quiet site

If the owners are not around when you arrive your pitch number is in the information kiosk on the fridge. Friendly helpful owners. Well cut grass field with a slight slope. No hard standing but each pitch has electric hookup. Adults only. Lots of extra facilities. No need to worry if you run out of milk, bread, chocolate or ice cream there are plenty to buy in the information kiosk! Definately come back here again.

The best CL in the country

Barleywood is by far the best CL in the country. Everything you could possibly require from a CL, Barleywood has in abundance. A flat field with pitches well away from each other. Water taps and 16amps of power on each pitch and grey water can be piped directly to the nearby trees. There are very clean and stocked shower rooms and a fantastic shop catering for al;l your possible needs. Catering for dogs whilst you are away if required and adults only, so no peskey kids! Great area for walks with the coast only 10 minutes drive away. Try Burnham Overy Staythe. Local pub is excellent for food and real ale and is dog friendly. First class all round. Have already booked for our next visit.

The best cl we've stayed on.

David and Lorna take their responsibilities very seriously and keep the site in great condition. The two shower rooms are very clean and well equipped. The information shed has dishwashing facilities and a fridge and freezer, offering a sensible range of food and drinks (honesty box for payment). The pitches each have water supply and waste water can be put directly into hedge. Lovely site that's worth a stay, but book early - they are very popular.
