First Caravan Club Site

As this was my first caravan club site I can not compare it to others but I will review my experience of this site. On arrival the staff were very friendly and gave me lots of information about the site and surrounding areas. This site was situated right in the heart of thetford forest but still had plenty of openings for the sunshine to beam through. There was lots of space away from the road for my children to play without me having to worry about them. There were plenty of water and waste points and adequate waste bins. The last day it rained but the ground had very good drainage which kept the grass from being very boggy.  Overall my experience of this site was expectional and wouldn't hesitate to book again. Thanks to all the staff for making it such a pleasant weekend.

If you go down to the woods today?

We try and go to this site every year usually at the beginning of the season. Its a well thought out and redesigned to provide a choice of hard standings or grass pitches. For us it is the easy access to the woods for hiking with the dogs or going for a mountain bike ride. On that note you are only a short distance from the High Lodge centre in Thetford Forest which is a must for the adventurous, There are challenging cycle routes and a Go Ape centre. The wardens on our trip were the relief wardens and as usual with wardens very friendly and helpful.  There are no facilities on this site so that rating is a bit false but the site is well cared for and the service points are clean and maintained. The only fly in the ointment which is no fault of the caravan club is the wannabe motorcyclists who use the main road as a race track. This is not all day at the weekend but intermittently annoying. I will still go back as it is one of my favorites. On a last note the local wildlife trust this site as it is quite common to see deer walking through the site. Something my Grand daughter thoroughly enjoyed.

get back to nature with this really special site

We've been here twice now and each time had a really lovely family break.  Site is immaculate and the site owners are now than helpful!  Situated in the middle of the forest with really easy access for walks with dogs or great terrain for bike walks with out without kids.  Loads of places to go to such as Thetford forest go ape but is pricey as car park is£12 and so I recommend Brandon country park which is £2.50 for the day and in my opinion (excluding the go ape section) just as good particularly for young children and is only 10 min from site.  Swaffham is a lovely small town to visit with market and I interesting antique and craft shops. There is also lovely pubs to eat at such as the Swan or the windmill.

First time visit

Great Easter weekend (apart from weather on Monday!). Friendly and helpful wardens. Nice and quiet (just what we like) and our Labrador enjoyed his walks! Aim to visit again as just far enough from home but not too much travelling

Back again.....

Just returned from an enjoyable peaceful weekend at Thetford Forest. Helpful wardens, well presented site, level pitches (well 43 was) and the feeling of an oasis from the maddening world. Do not be put of by no toilet block. FYI - easy tow for caravanners and good MWP for Motorhomers. Enjoy........

Thetford Forest

First time in a caravan, the staff were very helpful with advice for the few problems I had which resulted in a very enjoyable stay. Mostly, a very quiet site with a few distant noises in the background, but not disturbing. Extremely nicely laid out and very clean and well maintained.

Lovely weekend.

Spent a lovely, peaceful weekend here at the beginning of the half term. Well organised site with lots of hardstanding pitches but you have to rely on your own facilities as there is no toilet block. Wardens were welcoming and friendly. Nice peaceful site apart from humming noise at night which was only obvious when outside the caravan. Lots to do around the area. We did a few museums in Thetford - particularly enjoyed the Dad's Army museum but the Ancient House Museum and the Charles Burrell museum has some great traction engines. We also visited RSPB Lakenheath Fen which is just a short drive away - good sightings of bearded tits and kingfisher.

Another relaxing weekend break at Thetford.

We have visited this site a number of times in recent years. When we first visited the hard standings were the concrete perimeter road! The site has been beautifully developed over the years with lovely pitches. It is peaceful, relaxing and ideally located to explore this part of Norfolk. We visited for a long weekend this time to try out our new caravan in a relaxed and laid back environment and to visit the nearby National Trust Oxburgh Hall. We'll be back next spring to visit the gardens and grounds in bloom.
