Lovely

Very last minute booking but really glad as we had a lovely relaxing 2 night stay with our 7 year old. Pitch was good, facilities very clean and warm - in fact its the first site I have been to in a long time that had everything you need in a shower - pull out seat, hooks, shower caddies...brilliant!!! It was still fully booked but where we were was perfect for us, lad able to cycle safely around the one way system, lots of dog walk areas and peace and quiet. Was lovely to have people who were pleasant and chatty too (have been to so many sites where you can't even get a polite hello from some people). Would definitely recommend and go back.

Another great stay

This was our second stay at this site. As always a very pleasant stay even though it was the height of the Easter break. Cannot understand why members want to use site road as a racing track? One day someone is going to get injured! Slow down and chill out, that's what caravanning is supposed to be about. Fantastic dog walks, our 3 were shattered when we got home.

Easter 2015

As always facilities warm and clean. Wardens friendly and helpful. Great walk from site to Sandringham visitors centre. When booking in we were asked to abide by the 5MPH speed limit because several children on site. Unfortunately some thoughtless idiots ignore this rule 1 minute after being reminded. The club is very health and safety conscious in most areas, but speeding members are flaunting this important aspect too often. Children, elderly members and pets are at risk from these irresponsible and arrogant few, who should have their numbers logged and warned.

Excellent site

This was our first visit to the site as it has always been booked up when I have tried before. A fantastic location and the site is very well maintained. Will definitely visit again if I can get a booking. Two minor niggles: 1. We queued for an hour for the fish and chip van but wouldn't bother again. The chips were frozen, not fresh cut and the fish batter was thick and not cooked through. 2. I like dogs but some people on the site had 3 or 4 with them. This got to be a bit of a nuisance at times as the same people seemed incapable of controlling their dogs.

3rd time lucky

Having tried to book Sandringham for Easter and due to poor health, having to cancel last year, we finally made it this year, what a fantastic site, friendly wardens, a very clean site and wardens that actually cared , had time and were very professional, this visit was worth the wait, now we are home we are already thinking of another visit and soon. A big thankyou to ALL involved, this is why we joined the Caravan Club, and remain members

Easter at Sandringham

The usual friendly welcome and easy drive / tow makes for a pleasant arrival to the SE CC. Although very busy the facilities were to CC standards and the site had a warm inclusive feel, although the weather was not so warm :(. Pitch 111 was level and near an entrance to the forest So easy to walk the dog. Our only grumble was poor wifi and the lack of planning for calor gas (they had run out) - luckily we had a spare bottle. To conclude, a great site to base a visit to the Sandringham estate and wider Norfolk attractions.

Poor Experience

Overall this site isn't that bad but our experience was not positive. Staff seem friendly enough and the site is kept nice. Most pitches are hardstanding and look good. Unfortunately the site was full and there was only a couple of grass pitches remaining when we arrived (2pm). The grass pitches were not fit for purpose, covered in rabbit holes and were of an insufficient size. We pitched on a cluster of 4 grass pitches located on a corner. Despite being awning pitches, we could not put our awning up without preventing access to and from by the neighbouring car and have needed to do without (the other pitches did not seem to suffer to the same extent but were very close to each other still). Toilet facilities were generally clean enough but tired and in need of update. Obviously as it is the Easter holidays there are a lot of families (we also have our children with us). However I would not allow my children to be riding bikes around cars and units and dumping bikes on our pitch as other parents seem to allow. I think our experience would have been better with an acceptable pitch but I would not take the risk again and will not return. Wifi reception and speed poor considering it has to be paid for.

Had 3 days the weekend before Easter. We use this site fairly regular for weekend breaks & have always found it friendly & clean. The walks are beautiful & they do a really good lunch at the estate restaurant by the visitors centre. Some of the pitches can take a bit of levelling up on but nothing too arduous. Staff always friendly & helpful, toilet & shower blocks warm & clean. Good bus service to Kings Lynn or to Sunny Hunny so plenty of scope. Highly recommend!

Our 2nd stay this year

Stayed 28th - 31st March. well it was certainly busier than our previous stay early Feb ( eager newbies) the site was about 2 thirds to 3 quarters full mainly caravans especially where we were. I completely agree with previous comments about cigarette ends being left by other people it's discusting My other half smokes and wouldn't dream of leaving his ends for others to clear up He has a little fold away ash-tray (cost about £1) he does smoke outside as I'm a non smoker. However this issue wouldn't prevent us returning hopefully when the house is open. Perhaps when booking in the wardens should remind people about being curious to others " don't leave your ciggy ends and don't drive too fast" ...But then again it's all just common sense ....isn't it?

Tucked away in the woods

Just returned from 6 nights on the site where I was greeted with a friendly welcome from the wardens before settling on one of the large, hardstanding pitches. This site is fabulous for dog owners who can walk off site in any direction through the woods, as well as having the option of a clean, secure onsite dog walk where dogs can have a run and play. There are ample poo bins provided and these were well used and emptied regularly by the wardens, keeping both the site and the woods clean. Despite being school holiday time, the site remained quiet with a few children on the play area but, on the whole, I would say this site is more suited to walkers and couples or families seeking a quiet relaxed break. There is a little road noise when the wind is in the wrong direction, but otherwise the site is very peaceful. My only gripe is more to do with other site users really, as there seemed to be a lot of people smoking on site and leaving cigarette ends on the grass around my own and other people's pitches. Perhaps the club could have some signs erected on sites, reminding smokers that they are responsible for their own mess; the wardens and other holiday makers should not have to clean up after them. I would definitely recommend this site and will likely return to take advantage of the great walks around the Royal Estate.
