An enjoyable stay but . . . . .

This CL is probably one of the largest in the UK but getting to it was a bit of a problem. It is located on the road into Hickling but unfortunately there is no CaMC CL sign at the entrance to the private lane ('Loke' in Norfolk) but with another CL's sign only a few metres away. - confusing. Consequently we missed the turn-off and had to drive into the village to find somewhere to turn around. We knew where the CL should be as we had put the GPS coordinates in satnav. Returning after turning around we spotted a small hanging sign, white text on a black background 'Meadow Farm'. Because of the recent wet weather the pitches had been a bit churned up by vehicle movements although generally they were perfectly flat. A point that is not mentioned anywhere is that the electric is only 10 amps and not the usual 16. We found this out soon after arriving with both water heater and kettle on at the same time. The 2 acres site is grass which is kept moderately short but the clippings are not collected resulting in a fair bit of grass ending up in the caravan. Each pitch has a water tap and two waste bins, one for general waste and one for recyclables . The electric bollards serving two pitches are slightly further away so a 25m cable is needed. Similarly, a long water hose is probably needed. My 15m hose was just long enough. The WC emptying point is better than some but worse than others. The main problem is that it is a long way from the pitches including a 30 metre walk through a small wood to get to it. This could be an issue for some less mobile visitors. Signage, again, was a bit lacking. I know Dan and Sam only took over the CL 2 years ago and hope that they will address the points mentioned in the not too distant future. Would we go again? Yes. All in all we had a very enjoyable week's stay.
