Our first time caravaning.

We only bought our caravan three weeks ago and this was the first time we had taken it out. The site was well maintained and very quiet with plenty of space around you. It is a perfect site for dogs with endless woods to explore on the door step and Holkham beach is just under an hours drive. Most importantly the ladies at the site office were very welcoming and accommodating. This is somewhere we'd be happy to come back to.

Our favourite site! Perfect for walking, dogs and relaxing

Our most popular and favourite site to visit. Really looking to getting there again in a few weeks time. Points to beware of - hard standings are very hard! Expect to struggle putting an awning up. It can be done but it's hard work on most of the hard standings. Take strong pegs and a big hammer! The wardens Yorkshire terriers are under better control, with just one rogue dog! But otherwise it's a fantastic site that always pleases. We always meet nice people here too - it's all very private and quiet - and friendly. Great walks and cycle rides straight from the site. Get fantastic meat from the grocery store at Mundford, where there is also an excellent fish & chip shop (cash only). Great pub meals at The Elvedon Inn - dog friendly too.

Great Stay

My thanks to the Wardens for their help with the RAC who came to take my caravan home! Apart from that it was a lovely stay and of course I drove home without towing which was a plus (apart from missing my onboard loo!) Love this site been here before and no doubt will visit again once I get the right indicator going on the caravan! For those interested in old churches finding St Mary's at Houghton on the Hill is well worth it. https://www.houghtonstmarys.org.uk/ I found it fascinating. I enjoyed a trip to Great Yarmouth and may well stay at the Club site there one day. The dogs loved the forest and all the wildlife. Muntjacks seen most evenings on our walks and squirrels - far too many of them! Great little shop at Mundford - or the roundabout just further on for ceramics and presents.

Perfect and dogs loved it

Just spent 2 lovely days at this location, very peaceful and surrounded by lots of great walking areas in the forest. Great for dogs and although the site is in the forest there were lots of pitches in the sunshine. The site was very clean and very well maintained and the wardens were friendly and chatty. We will return to this site again.

Nice site spoilt by Wardens dogs

Lovely location, spoilt by Wardens three dogs constantly yapping every time someone enters or leaves the site.. I first visited this site many years ago but won't be rushing back. If you do chose to visit, make sure you pitch as far away from the entrance as possible. The Crown Hotel in Mundford is very welcoming and serves goo food.

Not so good for cycling

We visited Thetford site last week for four days. We always take our bikes as we prefer to cycle using an OS map and finding small roads and villages etc. However, we found it very difficult to access anywhere without cycling on the main A road which was just so busy. Some of the trails through the forest are quite deep shale so unless you have wide tyres its very tricky riding. We did manage to find our way round to Ickburgh and then Lynford Arboretum and Lynford Stag but by cycling through the forest trails which although enjoyable, are very bumpy. So although it is a beautiful peaceful site, you can't get very far on your bikes unless you're happy to go on the A roads.

Fantastic & relaxing site

Just back from 4 nights at one of our favourite sites. All good, as usual. Points to beware of - hard standings are very stand - expect to struggle putting an awning up. It can be done but it's hard work on most of the hard standings. Take strong pegs and a big hammer! The wardens 4 Yorkshire terriers are under better control, with just one rogue dog. But otherwise it's a fantastic site that always pleases. We always meet nice people here too - it's all very private and quiet - but friendly.

Tiny corner of heaven

Stayed here on several occasions now and every time it's been so peaceful even with the military activities going on. Our dogs love it asch as we do. The only thing that spoiled out last trip was that someone went out for the evening an left their dog alone in the caravan to howl and bark for for 5 hours. Hopefully the club will pick this review up and amend the policy to stop this from happening. I love dogs but this was naughty and not fair.

Hidden gem

Gorgeous setting in the middle of the trees in Thetford Forest. Very peaceful and loved our stay. Staff were friendly. There were lots of great walks from the site, including the Desert Rats trail. Great idea that the chemical waste is situated a few Paces away from the waste and drinking water point. It was a last minute decision to visit and one that are very pleased with - highly recommended!

Time to slow down

A quiet (if you don’t mind the odd military jet during the week),secluded site that just forces you to slow down. The grass pitches are not always level, but do give you the feeling you are on a much smaller site. There are so many walks you can do directly from your caravan. Lyndford Arboretum is a must. Although dogs are not allowed in the actual arboretum there are some beautiful walks around the outskirts. Wetton has a great market, if you need to top up on fruit or veg it has the biggest stall I have ever seen at a local market.
