We visited the site for a week at Spring Bank holiday. Sunday morning of the Bank Holiday weekend saw queues for the showers, but other days this was not a problem - the shower blocks are kept very clean. Very welcoming and helpful wardens on the site too. It's worthy of note that the play area is particularly good here! Ideally situated for exploring Norfolk. The Sandringham estate is worth an explore as are the small seaside resorts. The Tank museum is worth a visit too and not too far to drive to Norwich for a spot of shopping.
The site was very quiet and peaceful, despite being full initially. The pitches, however, are quite sloped. The pitch we chose was opposite a dog walk - although it's very small and you would need to take your dog into the adjacent woodland for a proper walk. There are warnings about dog illnesses being noticed during the early autumn which seems to be connected with the woodland on the estate...so may be a place to avoid later in the year for dog owners.
So Relaxing
Wonderful peaceful site, with plenty of places to visit nearby. Very clean toilet blocks and pleasant wardens. Enjoyed walk to Sandringham visitors centre. Only gripe is that Great Days Out vouchers are not available for house and garden when staying at site. Quite pricey for house, garden and museum entry.
Whit week holiday
Site very well kept and facilities of a high standard of cleanliness. One point is on the gents toilets of only having 3 cubicles, where there are 6 showers.
Children's play area of good size and has good range of eqipment to cater for range of ages. As with all sites some members seem unable to adhere to site speed limit.
Nice walk to Sandringham visitor Centre. Cafe good and surprisingly not over priced. Some good walking in the woods around the site, however be aware of private woodland opposite the site. O/S and site walking map misleading as you are not permitted to use footpath round the back of the Church in Sandringham due to this one being in private keeping. All,in all though a good place to holiday. Located well for Walsingham and the Shirne to our lady, along with costal towns of Wells next the sea & Hunstanton. Holt, fakenham and other towns also worth a visit.
Well worth a visit.
As good as always
There are few superlatives that can be added to the comments of other reviewers. Site - immaculate; wardens - helpful and friendly; facilities - in excellent order. Our only 'beef' is about a very small minority of fellow caravanners or motorhomers. Clearly a few think that parking rules don't apply to them and a few think that we like listening to their dogs barking and/or listening to their choice of television programme. Minor but irritating hiccups but happily the Sandringham experience is still to be thoroughly recommended.

Pleasant and Peacfull Site
A wonderful site with easy access to visit Sandringham on foot with a 30 min. casual walk and plenty of walks in the immediate area. The site is well kept, clean and the Staff are very friendly and helpful, would strongly recommend a visit.
Set in the forest surrounded by nature.
We have just had three nights at this lovely site, set in Sandringham forest. The site is well laid out with two toilet blocks and the normal high standard of facilities. There are tracks leading off in all directions into the forest. Sandringham visitors centre is within walking distance, with their restaurant, cafe, marked out forest walks and of course, Sandringham House. The coast is a short drive and there is a supermarket and couple of pubs in Dersingham. The area is ideal for bird watching. Cycling is not allowed in the forest and to be honest you wouldn't want to really as the pathways are a bit uneven. There is a bus stop right outside the site, ideal for those in a motorhome.
Oh no the Wife said.....
as we arrived and checked in by really nice friendly staff and directed to our Pitch - On Grass!! With only 9 grass pitches we didn't think we'd end up on one as we are massive hard standing fans. We arrived on Pitch 136 which was by the entrance to the site all on its own surrounded by Trees, Daffodils and a nice little fence - it was like having our own little garden. The Sun shone on us all day whilst most of the Pitches in the back of the Site fell under the shade late in the afternoon. The Shower / Toilets were as clean as you would expect at a Club Site and the whole Site was very clean and the Landscaping kept immaculate. We have booked to go back twice more this year - if only we could reserve Pitch 136 - On the Grass!!!!!!
Superb weekend with friends
Once again another fantastic weekend with friends and family on this superb campsite. Definitely a favourite. Peace and quiet and also so much to do and lovely places to walk and visit. Lovely places to eat as well and, unlike a previous comment on a review, we have always found the mobile fish and chip van superb, fresh, hot and cooked to order. We have no complaints at all to do with this Site and the Wardens are extremely helpful and courteous.

Great Getaway
This is one of my local sites and perfect for trying out my new tow car.
Perfect settings with plenty to do in the local area, from wandering in the woods to local seaside towns.
Hit the coast road and head around the coast towards Cromer and the Broads, you wont be disappointed.
Just remember to take a tv aerial booster cable (available on site) and a couple of blocks as some of the pitches are slightly on the slant.
The kids play area seemed to be a hit with the youngsters.
I will be returning in August and cant wait.
Very Nice Site
This was our first visit but won't be our last. Lovely site, good location. Only downside is very slow wi-fi which is annoying when you have to pay for it.
