Brilliant break
We stayed for 5 nights in late September. The wardens were terrific people, showing great friendliness and helpfulness throughout the stay. The site is close (250yds) from the River Ant so you can watch boat traffic for hours, or visit the cafe /shops at Ludham Bridge. Our "Local", the Dog Inn, is about 150yds in the other direction, serving real ale and tasty food. There are numerous country footpaths to Ludham Village, which has a tearoom (tiny but quaint with good service) and a pub as well as a few shops. A bus service stops about 50 yds from the site and we used it to go to Horning, one of the prettiest Broads villages. We also took the opportunity to take the motorhome up to Cromer, where you can park on the clifftop and gaze out to sea while enjoying the fare from the small takeaway coffee shop. There are lots of other possibilities for days out given the proximity of the Broads, the beaches / seaside and Norwich.
Our dogs were well catered for by the onsite exercise area (small but very useful early and late in the day) and the riverside walks. The facilities were clean and sound and closure for cleaning happened at sensible times and with "emergency" access to the family room - a much better arrangement than I have seen at other sites.
I can't find anything to criticize at all, but just to point two things out - it can get rather dark so make sure you have a decent torch and the batteries work (doh!); and there is a farm next door so you may hear a bit of machinery operating and / or the odd faint whiff.......
It was great to go back to an area where I spent a lot of childhood holidays, not least because so much of it is still recognizable and the charm hasn't been lost.
