Great find

First we would like to thank the Wardens for a fabulous welcome after a long drive from Cumbria, and thank you to the fill in Wardens covering leave. This is the best site for the welcome and helpfulness, wish all club Wardens were like these guys, maybe the club should get these guys to train the rest!!!! A leaf out of their books would go a long way. Some people said the site was not exciting, but what you have to remember is this is a Racecourse, the location is great, if you have a bus pass you are in luck(we are out of luck as we are not old enough). But it is great for cycling into Yarmouth and Caister, great cycling tracks. Usual very clean facilities. There is a chip van on Saturdays/Wednesday, you will have to make your own mind up on this one. Well worth a visit, hope to return one day. Only one comment, which happens a lot now, and totally bugs us, were on pitch 89 next to the bins etc, campers remember do not walk through someones pitch that they have paid for, it's very rude and annoying, would you walk through your neighbours garden at home!! It was unfortunate that we forgot our wind brake and that would stopped the lazy people.

Brilliant site, immaculately clean, first rate wardens

Stayed for five days end of May it was a last minute decision to go and chose the site based on reviews and could not have been more pleased. The site is well positioned for the town and while you can walk to the beach it is not near the main part of Yarmouth more isolated dunes type of area. There are too few sites with the space and tidy facilities offered here and to say the toilet and showers are clean is a massive understatement they are just about clinical!! The wardens are in a class of their own I have never encountered more friendly, welcoming and helpful people anywhere. I had a small problem with my van and even though they were off duty they went way beyond what they could have been expected to do to help me Yarmouth isn’t my favourite place but due to the site I will go back

Always a good stay

As always perfect stay, despite the weather. The best thing about this site is the Wardens. They could not be two more helpful and friendly people. Always a lovely welcome when you arrive and cant do enough to help you during your stay. The second best thing is the beautifully kept shower block. Warm and clean always. The third best thing is the proximity to the beach for our dogs. Always look forward to staying here.

Great site

We stayed for the first time at the beginning of August and were pleasantly surprised, great facilities, great location and friendly wardens. So much so that we extended our stay from our 4 night original plan to 8 nights. Plenty to do in the local area.

Second stop on our tour. Typical racecourse site, but with a brand new facilities block. Very open site could feel very crowded when full, with pitches three deep in places, but it was quiet when we were there. Great friendly wardens. Don’t forget your levelling blocks it’s very undulating.

Another great stay

Stayed at the end of June beginning of July having used the site a few times before. Arrived and thought the grass had all gone 😂 - it had a desert look, even the pots of plants were struggling because of the dry weather! Lovely greeting from relief wardens the usual wardens returned during our stay equally lovely. Fantastically clean facilities as usual. Short walk out of the site to the dunes and beach for dog walking or human playing! alive with skylarks and terns. There's a protected nesting area. Theres a land train and buses run along the prom into Yarmouth in the summer months, a good level walk along the top or on the beach 30 minutes ish. Bus stop opposite the entry gate just into the housing estate. On site shop sells milk and bits. There is a shop on the static caravan park open 8-8 selling a full range including bakery if the site shop doesn't have what you want. We enjoyed a day at the races, half price entry if you buy from the office, £8 in our case an afternoon meet 7 races. I won my entrance fee back. Soon got the hang of the totes, never been on a race course before or placed a bet! Stakes as low as £1 with the right tote. We were joined by our son and his partner for his birthday, they put a small 2 person tent in the awning space. First club visit for either of them both very impressed. We will be back as Yarmouth has much to offer beyond the front. The Time and Tide Museum is a must and the attached tearoom Silver Darlings worth a few visits! Beautiful fresh offerings. We hired a boat from Potter Heigham for fabulous few hours. Plenty to amuse most folk.

All round brilliant site

This is our 3rd time here (1 st this year),, the wardens have to be the best we have ever met, friendly and very knowledgeable of the local area.since last year they have worked real hard to improve the site to a high standard(although was a great standard last year), the shower blocks has been revamped and updated, still the highly clean standard. Fencing replaced and painted.the grass is kept cut as well as all weeds kept on top of.LOVE the new herb garden, in the old phone box. This site is ideally located for the sea front and shops nice flat cycle into yarmouth, or bus or even land train.short walk to the dogs or stock car racing track. We of course will be back to this wonderful site.......the club should use the site and wardens to show examples to other sites.

Great Location

Met by excellent Wardens, gave us some great details on what was happening on site (dog owners, and change of pitch numbers). Toilets always clean and tidy as with the rest of the site. Have used this site many times before. Easy to get into Yarmouth itself, bus just outside the site, or take the land train from Seashore site, or have a lovely 20-30 min stroll along the front. Great for families, and the couple like we are. Loads of stuff to do from Adventure Golf, shopping and the odd pub to pop into. The Troll Cart in Yarmouth having a well worth 3.5m revamp, is now bright and airy. Will be visiting again, just need to work out when.
