Secret Nook

Let me start by saying what an absolute gem of a site/location. There are no toilet facilities or shower block, but that doesn't stop it being one of the best paces we've been to, and it's relatively close to home. It's literally in the middle of Thetford Forest, and there are miles of forest walks. The site is clean and tidy with various pitches, hard standing or grass, and the patrons are lovely people. We'll defo be visiting again for weekend getaway. x

Outstanding site

Just back from another fabulous week on site. The site wardens take pride in keeping the pitches in great condition, the service points are lovely and clean and the grass is cut. The site is in the middle of a network of paths in the forest. It's a perfect site to get away from it all and enjoy nature, walking in the woods and waking to the sound of the birds.This is not a site for those who want the toilet blocks and children's play area but excellent for those of us who don't want that, but just want to unwind. We have been going to the site for years and it's still our favourite site. All the hard work and care Keith and Sarah have put in over the years shows. We will be back again this year.

Thetford Forest, another stay

This is the sixth or seventh time staying here at this non facilities site . The wardens were not only efficient but friendly and informative. Since our last visit there are now security barriers installed. If your a bird watcher there are plenty of sites with in a 15 mile radius. Plenty of supermarkets and petrol stations in the area, our favourite is Waitrose in Swaffham.

Adult only site, perfect.

Having spent 5 nights at this beautiful site, we will definitely be returning.. although it is the middle of nowhere and no onsite facilities, the place was spotlessly clean, very friendly staff and good sized pitches.numerous forest walks, which are accessible for mobility scooters. 100% recommended if you want a relaxing time away. Thank you all.

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.
