Have recently returned home from an 8night stay .Not the club's fault it rained...a lot . Sandringham is a lovely friendly, relaxing site. Have to agree with other reviews regarding the facility blocks they are a bit tired , but perfectly adequate. The site is ideal for M/H's as the buses for Kings Lynn and Hunstanton stop right outside .Those not of a certain age the return fare to KL is £4.50 return , cheaper than parking . Would we return again ..most definitely , have already booked for next year.

This is our 3rd visit to Sandringham and we look forward to returning.
The staff are excellent, they do a a first class job at maintaining Sandringham site. The site spaces are generous.
I have a couple of areas of improvement that I would like to see. The facilities are dated. It would be a shame not to maintain the high standard. An update is timely. The showers and toilets really should be updated in order to maintain an outstanding review.
But what a fabulous location. The visits we have found fabulous include, if course Sandringham, but also Snettisham beach, Creak Abbey, Burnham Staithe, Burnham Market, Wolverton Station, Brancaster Staithe, Thornham Deli, Holkam Hall, Walsingham Abbey, Houghton Hall. All in all, a great place to be. We look forward to returning. But, please keep up the investment in the site.

Peaceful site
This was the first site we'd used since buying our first caravan. On arrival staff were accommodating and helpful. We chose our pitch and set up. The fish and chip van on the Friday was a welcome sight! The site itself was very quiet which was perfect for us. The vans were well spaced so we didn't feel on top of each other. Everyone was considerate of each other and really helpful when we had a query about our van. We had read on other forums that caravanners are generally a friendly helpful bunch and this was certainly true on this site. The showers were clean and the water was a good pressure and temperature. We had to wait for one on Saturday morning but people were considerate and didn't take forever! The washing up area was also clean and well looked after.
Although this a Tourer Explorer site with a trail for children to do, there were no other children on the site when we visited. We didn't mind this as it was lovely and quiet but worth knowing if you are taking children.
The grounds were also well looked after and we went for a few walks through the woods. This is a great site to explore this part of Norfolk and we visited Bircham Windmill and Hunstanton. We were only there for 2 nights so didn't get the Sandringham House or Castle Rising which I would have loved to have visited. We'll just have to come back!
Overall a fantastic experience and a site we would highly recommend.
A lovely site
This was our 3rd visit to sandringham and yet again had a lovely week, the facilities are very clean and site well kept and maintained, a fish and chip van came 3 times a week and also a pizza van which we had both and very good food, the wardens were so welcoming and friendly we will be back next year and hope we get better weather. A fantastic week.

LOVELY STAY
We had a lovely weekend at Sandringham, managing to book a pitch on the day at 9.00 a.m. (which must've been cancelled overnight) and arriving - having food-shopped en route - by 2.30 p.m. The wardens were very helpful in arranging that we didn't have to change pitch for our second night (one night with awning/one night without), for which we were very grateful.
The facilities were spotless as always and the were given very helpful information about the local area, which meant we had a nice walk to Sandringham House and Garden through the forest - passing Winnie-the-Pooh's house on the way!
The wardens' office is tiny compared to other similar sized sites - e.g. Peterborough, Wareham - they could really do with rather more space. I'm amazed how cheerful they were in such a cramped environment on a busy site!
We look forward to visiting again.
Friendly Oasis in a beautiful part of the country
We had hired a Motorhome using SwiftGo for the first time so were a little nervous. This wasn't helped when the M25 caused us to be 3 hours late so had to use the Late Night Arrivals area. This was so simple in this outfit and the warm welcome the next day banished the road trip from our minds.
The kids loved the Motorhome and also the walk to Sandringham through the wonderful woodland, a complete contrast to the proper seaside town of Hunstanton complete with pony rides and crazy golf.
An old favourite
Love Sandringham, one of our favourite local sites though our first visit this season. New wardens since our last stay at Christmas, all lovely people, very welcoming and friendly and always with a ready wave when passing. Always hard working and busy and pottering around tidying and keeping the site clean and tidy. Fish and chip van and pizza regularly. We visited Sandringham House, the gardens looking beautiful and now is the season for the beautiful rhododendrons.
NOTE TO CLUB : My only negative, and nothing to do with the wardens, is the same as previous visits over the last couple of years, the facilities are in need of a refurbishment and upgrade. Considering this is an all year open site they definitely need some upgrading. Wardens work hard to keep them spotlessly clean but they are defiantly showing their age (the facilities not the wardens!!!!!).
Thank you lovely wardens, keep up the good work, will be back soon.
Another excellent stay
Just returned from an extended weekend stay, my second within a month. As always staff helpful and welcoming. I was a late arrival, having called in to warn staff of my late arrival. Given the option of several good pitches & Asked to call into reception in the morning to pay. Facilities leN and well equipped. Spent the first day on site. I was impressed at how active the staff were. Several were engaged on minor maintenance and site cleaning. Office staff very pleasant and informative. I will be returning again soon.
Dear Old Sandringham
Cracking site and still one of our favourites. We seem to come here every Easter. Popular at peak times so get your booking in. Very friendly wardens who can't do enough for you. Good pitches. Good facilities although there are only three showers (gents) in the top shower block and these got very busy at peak times (morning). Great for dogs as there are miles of fantastic woodland walks all around the site. Chippy van on a Friday night but get there early to avoid a wait. Good food at The Feathers at Dersingham and the George and Dragon at Snettisham.
We'll be back (already booked for next year). :-)
Sandringham 2019
Another superb visit to The Sandringham Estate club site, we always enjoy coming here. The site is immaculately kept by the team of wardens, well done to them. There is so much to do, not only the beaches but all the other attractions in the area. But then it is always nice to spend time just sitting in the sunshine outside the van, especially with the great weather we had over the Easter weekend.
The only downside to our visit was that it took nearly an hour to get through the traffic at Kings Lynn!!
