Possibly our favourite site . We had pitch 21 and , although close to the road, the location for us and our two labradors was perfect . The site is nicely laid out and immaculately kept. All the Wardens were helpful and friendly . The pub 10 minutes walk away and numerous walks around the area made this a trip to remember .
Hope you like an early wake up
This is THE best site, wardens great, it is immaculate, spotless clean and the grass always cut. Here is the thing though, there are a couple cockerels over the boundary fence that are obviously not sure of the time!! They can start at 4am and sometimes don’t stop till the afternoon lol - not a problem but if you are looking for a lie in and are a light sleeper, pick a pitch away from the dog walk area lol.
This really is a lovely site, I think this was my 5th or 6th visit and I love it. There are lots of things to do around the area or just park up on site and stay close, both make great stays.
The only improvement that could be made is the dog walk is long and narrow but open at one end so dogs on leads at all times. It would be great if there was a place for the dogs to play and run off lead. My 2 got so annoyed being on the lead the did a Houdini while my back was turned and had a 2 minute run around, up and down. The other campers who had to move out of the way of my 2 were gracious, but I hope realised it was obviously not on purpose!
Highly recommend this site and you won’t find better or more helpful deputy wardens!!

Peaceful & Immaculate
This was our second jaunt with our caravan this year to Norfolk and we found this site to be well situated for both the Broads and the Coast, with pretty villages within easy reach and scenic riverside pubs to enjoy, whilst watching the world drift by on the river. We were extremely lucky with the weather and enjoyed lots of outdoor time in the sunshine.
Everything on this site was immaculate and well tended. An ice cream van called by in the evening, its chimes ringing and a woodfired pizza van visited the site also.
People were friendly and the site was peaceful except for the birdsong, a distant Cockerel and the mooing of cows. A super site.
peace and quiet
First visit to this site and what a lovely peaceful site it is. the staff on reception were friendly and helpful. when we found our pitch we were greeted by birdsong from the many goldfinches in the hedgerow, there`s some nice walks nearby along the river, we took a stroll and see an abundance of wildlife, grey heron, marsh harrier, reed bunting e.t.c. we used the nearby shop which is small but does have various essentials and some gifts, there is a cafe next door but it was not open during our stay, we did visit the nearby public house (the dog) but were not enthralled by their menu, if you want a nice peaceful break this site is ideal
Perfect site
Spotless, lovely grass, quiet, not too big, friendly staff. Services on every aisle. Only small comment was dog walk was tiny. Didn’t bother us but just mentioning in case other members really use an on site dog walk. Great walks direct from site
2 night break
Lovely short break, run by some lovely people, friendly welcome and everything really clean and looked after. Will definitely return
A wonderful winter mini break
We have just spent 3 nights at this lovely clean & well kept site. It was quiet which is how we like, I am not sure what it would be like in high season. This is a wonderful spot to rest at, walk from or drive out to visit places. We had a wonderful drive out to see the seals at Horsey which was spectacular, this too gave us the chance to visit Poppylands a1940's tea room which is a must to visit too. We had a lovely walk to St Bennets Abbey & back via Ludham. We would have like to visit more place along the river but it was too muddy in places to go safely. The pub 2 minutes walk from the site was sadly shut, from what I can gather was because the boat people would not visit safely when they moored up near by. This is a shame as it would have been good to go. The site wardens are wonderfully friendly and should be proud of their efforts at keeping the site so lovely. This site is ideal for us as only just over an hour from home and we hope to visit again. Thank you for a pleasant time.
Post Lockdown getaway
Extended opening gave us chance for few days here. Excellent, well kept site, friendly helpful wardens and super facilities , immaculate and very well organized for covid. Nice riverside walk to St. Benet's and along a bit of the coast nearby. With better weather there looks to be plenty of other places to visit and walk etc around area. As site is only a little over hour away from home I'm glad the extra open time gave us the opportunity to try it out. Will definitely be back in spring.
Beautiful site
Lovely site. Spend 4 days here last week.
Well kept, spotlessly clean,
Wardens so helpful and friendly
Lovely day trips out
Highly recommend
Due to COVID local pub not open which was a huge shame
Perfect few days away
Thank you

Relaxing break with first class service
After the second lockdown we were desparate to get away, and wanted to do so before the tier systems were reviewed again. This site had been on our radar for a while, and as opening had been extended this year we took advantage to visit out of season. The welcome at reception was the friendliest I have encountred at any club site. Everything was explained in a very helpful and efficient manner. A 5 hour power cut was scheduled for the following day as National Grid needed to carry out some necessary work. The implications of this were explained with advice and an information sheet handed to us. We had a problem with the tap on our serviced pitch during our stay and this was immediately investigated and resolved by Dennis one of the wardens.
The immediate area is brilliant for walks with some wonderful views along the way. We walked to How Hill Staithe one day and back to the site by the River Ant. Another day we walked to St Benet's Abbey and then on to Womack Water and along the river towards Potter Heigham. There is also a bus stop close to the site entrance with buses to Wroxham and Norwich. Something that we hope to explore next time we visit. This place is a gem and we definitely intend to return!
