I loved this site, the owners are very welcoming and helpful, it's very good value for money (I loved the fact that money from ice block freezing when to charity). I thought the showers and toilets were fine, even over the busy last weekend of the school hols, queueing was minimal, and clean too. I hope the new facilities don't drive the prices up too much and make the site too commercial, because I love it as it is!

This site left us divided. My husband says he would visit again, while I couldn't wait to get away. (We moved on after one night). It is relaxed, the owners are friendly, it is very cheap and there is a lot of space. It is lovely that they allow campfires - and infact with the sale of wood and marshmallows you could say they are positively encouraged. During our stay it was very quiet and peaceful in the evening, and with no light-pollution the night sky was beautiful. By day, there is plenty of space for riding bikes, ball games etc, and woods for further play or recreation.
Camping is in a very large rough-grassed field with tree borders to two sides. There are no allocated pitches and at our visit most campers chose the more sheltered edges. There appears to be no restrictions on where fires can be placed resulting in many discarded firesites polka-dotting the field. Our children delighted in digging in these sandpit style. (Very messy!)
The toilet facilities are in the main farm courtyard and therefore subject to straying chickens and farmyard smells. For women there are two toilet cubicles with hand basins. These are not too old and were reasonably clean. However, for a site of this size I thought them inadequate. They opened directly off the farm courtyard, so all dirt, drafts, insects and stray animals come straight in. While they have a small handbasin, it is right next the toilet bowl and not somewhere I would want to hang around long enough to wash or brush teeth. Next-door are two coin operated unisex shower cubicles - they did not look inviting. The Gents loos looked like those dilapidated facilities you find in old pubs. I didn't go in, you can see as you walk past. The promised new toilet, washing-up and laundry block currently consists of a roof but no walls. Their website now says due for completion this autumn. I would certainly phone to check if this is important to you. I had expected it to be completed by late summer and wished I had asked!

Just back from bank holiday weekend at Breck Farm. As a regular at this site we had another fantastic long weekend. Stayed Friday to bank hol Monday, not overcrowded but busier than usual.
Yes the toilets have still to be done, but we have never been to bothered by this.
Breck farm is a basic site, sometimes loud with music and dogs barking(ours barks at everything and everything) but if you like having fun,in relaxed woodland setting then this is the place to be. Wouldn't advise it for the quieter more reserved camper, but then the other field can be much quieter if thats what you want.
The campfires really do make such a difference, if only more sites offered it.
We will be back again soon, have now been 8 times in past 2 years (me, hubby, kids, 11 & 15 years and noisy dog)
WE LOVE IT !

We enjoyed our stay here, the showers and toilets suffice if others are considerate and being an early riser I did not usually have to queue. Walking to the toilet can be a trek but not huge issue. Good that although a large number of people on site , did not feel cramped at all, nice to see kids being kids, nice to have option of campfire. Friendly owners, nothing too much trouble. Reasonably priced per night

We have just returned from spending a week at Breck Farm.
The week was very good value at £13 per night,inc a hook-up.There was plenty of space,and the site was relaxed and quiet.
As stated by previous reviewers,the toilets and showers were not brilliant. I would be reluctant to go back until the new (32) shower block is finished.The showers cost £1 for five mins, and you have to keep your hand or bum! on the button to prevent the shower turning off. Queues built up in the morning for the four showers.( thank God for wet wipes and strip washes).
If you want a camp fire, you can't have a hook-up, or visa - versa. (different parts of the field).
The only advice I would give people, is take your own loo and washing- up bowl. It was also very windy at times, as the site is quite exposed. The wind broke one of our tent poles. Luckily we used strong tape to fix it, before getting a replacement pole from the camping shop at West Runton. Definitely a site to use Delta Ground Anchors on. The sandy soil,however, dries quickly even after a bad thunder storm!
Overall it's a good site, but it is not pristine.
Finally,we can recommend the fish and chips shop on the Quay at Wells and the lovely (dog friendly) Gardens at Fairhaven at South Walsham, 9 miles SE of Norwich.

Just got back from an awesome break to this site.
When we first pulled up we wasn't sure as it is a farm but once we had signed in at the house we drove round the corner to acres of land - we had never seen so much space.
We were only a way for 2 nights so did not adventure out on walks but did have a nose in to the lovely pine woods that surround the site and we can't wait to come back next year with our bikes to adventure.
We did find on the Saturday there is a market in Weybourne in the main car park (taking up about half) so if wanting to spend the day there on a Saturday be prepared to wait 5-10 mins for a space.
Yes the facilities that are there at the moment are very basic but I found them to be as clean as any busy site in peak season and if you would like to shower my advise go a little later in the day or get up first. My only complaint is a better light in the shower
We are already planning our next trip back there - Thanks to the owners for a lovely relaxed site and allowing camp fires.

Just back from breck farm what great site,large flat pitches,camp fires,acres of space for the young ones to run about,woodlands to cycle,walk dogs in and also very cheap.The only downside was the loos which have been mentioned in other reviews,but the new and very large toilet block with showers pot washing area and laundry area was well under way.Once these are complete this will be a perfect site for those who don't want clubs bars etc,with out a question we wil return to this site again and again well done to the site owners on giving us this type of site.If you have a young family and want to give them so real freedom without having lots of rules this realy is the site to go to.

Just come back from a fortnights stay here-the owner seemed very surprised that we were staying that long which worried me to start with!
Plenty of room for our tent-we took up two pitches but the site was quieter than normal.
Lovely walks,scenery, woods and close to sheringham cromer etc
Major downside are the state of the toilets at the moment-could do with being cleaned more! But building of the new block is going on right now.
Would go back when the new block is built but hope the owners keep it to a better standard than at the moment.
Oh and watch out for the farm dogs.They're not always friendly!

Loved it-very friendly owners and relaxed atmosphere. Plenty of space and could choose own spot. Facilities clean and didn't have to queue but I guess it could be busy at peak times but I see a new shower block is planned. Great walks and cycle rides from the park with the steam railway within walking distance at Weybourne and the sea at Sheringham and Cromer close by. All the locals seemed very friendly and ready to give advice. Will certainly visit again asap.

Just returned back from a weekend away at Breck Farm and have to say what an excellent campsite, we were made to feel very welcome from the owners of the site. (rare to find this in the UK anymore)
The location of the site is superb and being close to some gorgeous coastline and plenty to see and do all around we will definitely be visiting again shortly.
The campsite itself is set in very natural surroundings and the fact you can have a campfire adds to the pleasure of the stay.
Anyone into sea fishing must visit Weybourne (only a couple of miles away) the fishing is excellent and because the sea gets deep very quickly here you don't have to worry about being able to cast out very far :)
