Very disappointed with this site, we had no contact with the owners while we were there. It is a basic field with very long grass which dad been cut some time ago and the cuttings left to be trodden into out caravan, there were also 6 outfits pitched up one night so obviously not sticking to the rule of 5. Great location and could be a lovely site with some TLC.
Very sad news
I have spent some wonderful holidays here and the site was always very well looked after and Clive was a wonderful host. I noticed some poor reviews and was surprised. I have now learned the very sad news that Clive died in December 2018 and care of the site was only taken over by relatives in autumn 2019.
I have been in contact with the new owners who have been very helpful and although I haven't yet been back I have given it 5 stars both in memory of Clive and in the belief that on my next visit it will earn them.
Very expensive for what you get.
CL set in lovely surroundings and area.. unfortunately felt unloved and uncared for. Basically a field, which is great IF it is well maintained. This isn't. The Chemical waste disposal didn't appear to have ever been cleaned, and when using a CL surely this is a basic requirement? As a motorhome user, access to the fresh water not good, and there did not appear to be anywhere specific to empty waste water
On the plus side plenty of room between guests, - however the whole time we were on site there were 6 outfits.
Would not return here

Basic CL
Plenty of space here but the grass was long and the field uneven. Fresh water tap requires a larger than usual hose connector. There is a hose in the hedgerow for " rinsing " , no drain and not sure what it's meant for. We had a nice peaceful night but not one of our favourite sites.
Excellent basic CL in a central location for North Norfolk Coast
Large slightly uneven sloping grassed field with electric points around three sides and mains water by the entrance. Approach down a dirt track offering peace and tranquillity and a superb
location for visiting the North Norfolk coast.
On our visit the grass was a little long and could prove tricky if wet otherwise an excellent rural basic CL. The two donkeys and free range chickens in the field adjacent were a delight.
Everything a CL Should be
The site is a large field surrounded by trees with electrical hook up points around the perimeter. Access to Burnham Market is easy about 40 mins walk. Access to local beaches and Holkham Hall also very easy would recommend purchasing a large scale map so that you can identify all footpaths and rights of way. Dressed crab available at the fish shop in Burnham Market but usually sold out early Monday morning but plenty rest of week. Not too certain about the Coasthopper Bus running pat the site we drove to Cley and Morston Church where there are free carparks and used the Coasthopper bus from Wells to Cromer.
Site is quiet and the pitches are level, or at least ours was. Use access from Burnham Market then Burnham Overy Town since the road in from Wells involves a very sharp left turn. Look on street view on Google maps and you will see what we mean.
Clive is very friendly comes and checks up to see if all is OK in the morning and late afternoon.
This is a good base for exploring the North Norfolk coast without being too close to a town major road and associated noise.
We will visit again since the journey from White Colne to Burnham Overy makes it suitable for a long weekend of 4 to 5 days.
Thanks Clive the site is everything a CL should be.
Lovely large CL site
Stayed here in August. Easy to find just off the main road from Burnham Market. The site is large with plenty of room between caravans. The grass is a bit long and mole holes and tunnelling a bit of a problem when pegging down the awning.
Clive is very friendly and helpful and is always checking that everybody is OK.
Burham Market is close and you can walk to the coastal paths from the site. The site is in an excellent position for exploring this part of Norfolk.
Would definately come again.

Ideal Location for the beautiful North Norfolk Coast
With the recent installation of electric hookup it has made a huge bonus to this peaceful site. We have visited twice this year It is an ideal location for the beautiful North Norfolk coast and the coasthopper bus passes every hour which you can hail by the gate. It is also close to Holkham Hall, Burnham Thorpe and Burnham Market. We walked from the site to Burnham Overy beach....superb. It is a good cycling area too. The field is basic.....the grass was a little long in places but it is a very relaxed site with no regementation about pitching and we love the 'chooks' and the donkeys. Clive the owner is a very friendly chap and he checks every day that all is well. If you visit during the plum season then we can recommend the delicious plums too!! This is one of our favourite sites and we will be back! Alan and Jane.

Perfect Location
We were meeting up with friends for the weekend who were staying in Burnham Market and Wells so were positioned perfectly in between. The sites very spacious, relaxing and laidback.
We were travelling with our four year old daughter and a puppy. They had plenty of space to run around without impacting on anyone else.
Clive was extremely friendly and welcoming, we will definitely go back.
Quiet CL
As a family of 4 and 2 dogs, this is our 3rd CL we've been to, normally stay on club sites due to shower blocks. Wanted a low cost holiday this year and was the best CL we have been to so far. The field was very spacious and had plenty of room to spread out with awning and chairs. Very quiet site, didn't hear any traffic. The person who runs the site was very friendly and came twice a day if any problems or a text away. Lovely location. Very good for walking to beach (1 hr) which is great for dog walks and children. Pub in next village and crabbing at harbour. 2 1/2 miles from Wells and 5 miles to Brancaster. Reasonable price for night with electric hook up. Stayed for 4 nights and will go back again.
