first class wardens

Had only just arrived at Great Yarmouth when my partner had an accident and had to go to hospital for 6 days.  The Wardens were wonderful, the best ever.  As I had to stay at the hospital also, they were reassuring me that all was ok at the campervan and helped me get my partner back into the vehicle when he was discharged from hospital.  Didnt see much of the area but cannot fault the site or the superb wardens, thank you to them for their help and understanding.

Excellent

Excellent site, so convenient for buses etc.  Brilliant wardens.  Excellent facilities. Plenty of places to walk the dog.  Used this site a couple of times when the children where small but location is just as good for us now as a couple.

Convenient for Beach and Town

This was both our first time on this site, and our first time on a racecourse site and I have to say how pleasant an experience it was. Given the constrictions that the centre of a racecourse poses, it is well laid out and our pitch by the rail was both spacious and remarkably private. The site is also only a short distance from both the sea front and a 10 minute cycle ride from the pier – very handy for those who want to have the full seaside experience. The only down side would be the lack of play area, etc for children - as embryo greys, this wasn't a problem for us, but would have been if we'd had children with us. And I couldn’t finish the review without saying how warm and friendly the welcome was.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the wardens are extremely friendly, keep the site at club standards expected & more. Beautiful location for walking our dog to the beach. Nothing to com plain about.

Well-run and relaxed site

Midweek 50% discount meant we headed here as we knew we would get a bargain. The site's wardens are very welcoming and helpful, offering a choice of pitches to suit my disabled partner's needs. The pitches are fairly spacious but without any marked boundary, people tended to wander a bit too close by. Facilities are immaculate and more than ample even when busy. The pot washing room was also heated and the hot water plentiful. All-in-all, a lovely site, and all credit to the wardens.

March stay

This site was a lovely well kept site. The wardens were very friendly and approachable. The only downside was no wifi, I would have thought all Caravan Club site would now have wifi.

Our first motorhome adventure.

We arrived after dark, and with no experience were expecting to be told where to pitch but you are free to choose for yourself on this site, and as it is all grass pitches with part of the site catering for several rows, working out which white peg to line up to was our first lesson. The couple that run the site are very friendly and very helpful and they keep the toilet and shower block immaculately clean. The laundry/washing-up room looked the same although we didn't make use of it. The service facilities on site were very good and there's an information room full of useful guides etc including a file listing and reviewing eateries and takeaways that previous campers have contributed to. A blackboard outside the office details the basic provisions available for purchase. A bowl of water is provided for dogs which I should imagine was a most welcome touch for the several dog owners using this site. A chippy van comes to the site every Tuesday and Friday. We only had chips and they were pretty tasty. A portion of chips cost £2 and I noticed that a piece of cod was £4 and a sausage was £1. There's a nice pub called The Avenue a couple of hundred yards down Beattie Road opposite the site entrance. The landlord and his wife have just taken over and are considering doing food in the future. There's a bus stop on the left hand side of Beattie Road where you can catch a bus into Great Yarmouth. The stop on the other side of the road is for the bus to Caister. They run about every 15 minutes and every half an hour on a Sunday. You can buy a 'Hi 5' ticket that entitles up to two adults and three children to travel for the day. The bus driver advised us to buy one as it was cheaper than two adult returns for £8. In Caister we had a great Sunday dinner at the Castle Carvery. It's open from 12noon until 10pm and from Monday to Saturday costs £7.49. On Sundays and Bank Holidays it's £9.99. They also serve a Full English for £5.99 from 9-11am at the weekend. It was very busy so obviously a popular eating place and with a large climbing frame with slides just outside, ideal for people with kids. We were very happy with our selection of Great Yarmouth Racecourse Caravan Club Site for our first trip out in our van. Not sure we'll be staying there again but that's only because we hope to visit different places on each occasion. We do however, recommend this site to anyone.
