Just back from a 4 night stay at this lovely site. We start our touring every year at Sandringham, but this was the earliest trip yet. The weather was crisp and cold and it even snowed as we walked through the woods on day one - very evocative.
Wardens were their usual friendly selves - there if needed but not obtrusive. Site was clean and well maintained.
We visited Hunstanton, Norfolk Lavender at Heacham, Holkam Beach, Wells and Titchwell RSPB.
Overall - a great start to 2015.
Sandringham in the snow.
We arrived just as the office was closing, but as we`d pre-booked there was no problem. We were welcomed and given a card to enter and exit the site, a set of rules and map of the site. We drove off and chose our pitch.
The site is clean, showers lovely and toilets good. I appreciated the free hair dryer. The environment was nice, with trees around the site.
Although it snowed overnight, the warden was out and about early putting down sand and gravel. Thank you.
We enjoyed our stay and will use this site again.
Our first but not our last
This was our very first overnight stay in our motorhome. We are completely new to this game but found some very helpful people. The site itself was wonderful the toilet & shower block spotlessly clean. We will certainly return again. We only stayed 2 nights couldn't get tv signal but didn't care.
If this site is anything like othe CC sites I can't wait to go to them ....also return to this one
Nice Break
We have just returned from a few days on this site and despite the awful weather enjoyed it all.
Lovely site, clean facilities, friendly helpful staff always with a smile.
Very quiet and relaxing. Highly recommended for a walking holiday.
First visit
Our first visit to this site, probably won't be the last. Lovely welcome from friendly and helpful wardens...there are some that could take a lesson or two from these!
Usual excellent CC site facilities. I had to give it 4 stars for "Good for families", the children's play area looked fine though thankfully it was empty during our stay!
Lovely walk straight out the site into Sandringham Park and up to the visitor centre etc.
As I said I'm sure we'll be back but probably "out of season" again.
Everything still has to be lined up like little soldiers though.......come on CC, lighten up! Depending on the layout of your van/Motorhome it may be preferable to drive on to your pitch instead of reversing on .....and, dare I say it, setting up sideways on. Does it really make a ha'p'orth of difference?
Exploring the Royal estate
We loved the site with its rural setting amongst the forest of Shandrinhan. The hard standing sites were level and well spaced out. As the site is in the confines of the Royal estate it is a real pleasure to be able to walk into such an emence area with such diversity of fawned and flora. It was also great to be able to walk right to the Visitors centre and enjoy a hot meal and a beer without the need for driving.
The facilities on site were very clean and up to the best of the club standards although as it was January the site was no where near capacity. We enjoyed watching the birds, rabbits and squirrels which were always around on site.
The site is very well suited for nearby beaches and National Trust properties so I would recommend it for anything from a weekend to full summer holiday stay.
We'll be back...
Our first visit here and it won't be our last. Lovely site,warm welcome and great facilities. Would have been 5 stars across the board except for the location next to the road and the (slight) noise that can come from there. One piece of advice for those going up to the Visitor Centre - leave early if you are walking - there's a lot to fit in if you are visiting Sandringham House/Garden/Museum as well. We didn't and will be back to do this next time. Mind you the walks around the estate were fantastic in themselves.
Excellent Site
Recently returned from our first visit to this site and have just booked another stay for nine days early February. Excellent site for us (two adults + two terriers) - can't really add to that !
A great stay
We thought initially that the site was full as the CC website shows no pitches available but this is misleading (CC you need to look at this). The site was, however, virtually empty so we had a choice of pitches. The pitches were well spaced - not all CC sites are like this - so we enjoyed peace and quiet throughout our stay. The facilities were excellent and clean, the staff helpful and the location was excellent for touring Norfolk. Will we come back? Oh yes!!
Winter Break
Have just returned from five nights at Sandringham, our first stay on this site with our two dogs. We found it to be absolutely perfect as a base to walk from and also explore the NW Coast of Norfolk. The facilities were first class, complemented by the extremely friendly and helpful Wardens. We were mindful of the warnings about seasonal canine illness but nobody seems to agree on an actual cause and it appears we were out of the high risk period. The proximity to Sandringham house meant we were lucky enough to see the Queen & Prince Philip at the Church even though we couldn't actually visit the house. Would recommend the site without hesitation as a winter touring destination.
