Reviewer: Baydreamer 3 reviews from this member

 Had a fantastic time here. Superb flat pitches. Our pitch was enormous!

Couldnt hear the road at night,which was lovely.

Lovely hog roast the night we arrived.

TV reception was fantastic once plugged into the 'box'.

Lots of room for cycling.

Huge swing fof kids(and adults).

Lots of very small black flies,the most we've ever come across on a campsite (had to go offsite until around 6pm every evening).

Childrens play area(except for a swing) was only

Really suited to very small children (who were very noisy).

All-in-all though, a nice site with flat pitches and nice toilet/shower blocks.

 Unable to stay for as long as we would have liked due to making a late booking. However, the owners were very accommodating and did the best they could. Lovely site, excellent facilities.

Good shower/toilet block with spacious shower cubicles and plenty of hot water. Shop is adequate and newspapers available to order. Very level site and secure.

Good walks for the dog and we enjoyed watching the daily activities on the fishing lake. Very rural, no major shops in the vicinity although local garage (approx 1 mile) sells all sorts and also pub and fish and chips in same location.

Very convenient for visiting N. Norfolk coastline as well as other parts of county. Highly recommended.

Reviewer: Scarfes14 5 reviews from this member

 Just got back from spending 4 nights at this campsite and we were very impressed.

When we arrived at the site, we were under the impression that the website had taken the full amount as on the payment screen it doesn't say how much it has authorised, this was not a problem but be aware that you don't get caught out like we did. The lady on the reception advised us to follow the one way system and her husband would show us our pitch.

The pitch was the biggest we have ever had. We had a hire an extension lead from the owners as the electrc hook up was on the next pitch to us and ours wasn't long enough (cost of £20 which is returned when we left)

The facilities were the best I had seen, no wonder it has five stars! The campsite is in the middle of a forest so there is minimum noise from the A140 the only thing I heard was the planes from Norwich Airport. Which wasn't very often.

The shop stocked little bits that you may run out of and also offered to order you a paper for an additional cost of 10p which I didn't think was too bad. Would highly recommend.

All in all we had a fantastic time and will use this as our Norfolk base for when we are visit family. Thanks for an enyjoyable stay.

 This was our first visit to Deers Glade and we were not disappointed. All the staff were very welcoming and shown us to our pitch, then pointing out the facilities and walks from the site. Our pitch was a good size.

The shower/toilet blocks were always immaculate and even during the busy half term never had to queue, even though only 2 showers in each shower block. On site was a small play area and field area for the kids to play games on, and also a small enclosure with some very friendly goats in, which our kids loved to pet and feed!

One evening the site put on a Hog roast and BBQ, which was very nice and reasonably priced. There are nice walks around the site lake, and walks from the site in surrounding woodland, which was great for our dog.

The site is in the middle of nowhere but very close to Cromer and North Walsham. We had a lovely day out on the Bure Valley Railway, which goes from Alysham (10 minute drive) to Wroxam.

Deers Glade is a real gem of a site, so good we booked before we left for the same week next year, and already it was about 60%ish booked, which is a testament it self.

 Our 2nd successive visit to this site and, nothing has changed much. The owners and staff work their socks off to please, the hog roast was to die for - even my 2 beagles enjoyed a taste of it (one of the ears actually !)

It truly is a credit to the owners and staff, excellent facilities, cleaned regularly and believe me,they easily pass the 'wives and girlfriends' test for the toilets. Long may the high standards continue

 Just got back from Deers Glade and was very impressed with the site. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Showed us to our pitch which was lovely with nice flat ground.

It rained for the first 2 days but I was very pleased to see that the ground was not muddy at all.

The shower block was kept lovely and clean. Very quiet most of the time but it was a quiet weekend. The showers were great with plently of hot water.

Really pretty, smallish park, very well maintained with a lovely lake at the back (which we looked over) where you can fish / watch the wildlife.

We will definitely be coming back for another visit.

 This was our first visit to Deers Glade and we were impressed. We got a friendly welcome and directed to the tent pitches and told we could choose where we wanted to set up! On the Saturday night when we arrived there was a hog roast at £3.50 per person which we thought was pretty good.

The site was really pretty and well maintained. It was quiet in the evenings despite it being fairly full.

We had heavy prolonged rain both nights but the ground was not sodden when we got up.

The shop looked very small at first glance but seemed to have everything you could want at very reasonable prices. The staff were pleasant and helpful.

Can't really comment on the play area as we don't have young children but the kids seemed to be enjoying it.

The shower block was modern and clean and the showers and washing up areas were excellent with plenty of free hot water.

The only negative comments I can make are that there were only 2 showers in the block we used which had to serve quite a large number of pitches. They were nearly always in use whenever I went into the block. Also as far as I could see there were only 2 drinking water tap areas (with 3 taps in each) on the whole site and these were quite a way from our pitch. I would prefer to see individual taps dotted about.

Apart from that we were impressed and would definitely stay there again.

 My husband and I went to this site to meet family, we were given a very friendly welcome. The pitch we were allocated was very nice, the toilets and showers were very clean with loads of hot water, we were very impressed with the shower block and washing area.

The site was very well kept, we didn't use the shop as this was being renovated when we went.

 My partner and I fancied a weekend away and decided on here and how pleased we were!

The site was well kept, plenty of space, wonderful showers with underfloor heating.

We had hard standing with electric and pulled up, plugged everything and we were ready for a peaceful weekend.

Cromer and Sheringham are worth a visit, very good chips shops and plenty of small local shops and the fresh seafood is lovely.

Highly recommend this site and yes we will be visiting again

 Just returned from our first weekend camping trip at Deers Glade. The Pitch we had was large and reasonably flat with a small little hedge around.Please note that these hedges have thorns, presumably to stop people going though them but this could be a problem with young children, be aware.Even for our Biarritz 9 tent (not the biggest but large enough) we still had plenty of space left.
I had chosen this site partly for the fishing which for me was the downside as all I could catch was small tiddlers (not owning up to the fact I am a lousy fisherman)
Joking aside this is a good site in very pleasant surroundings with very clean facilities and friendly owners. As we were only there for 2 days did not venture far because we didn't feel the need to do so.
Worth walking out of the site and turning right and a few hundred yards down the road we came across a large group of deer in gunton park. This was worth going for alone.

 This was the first time we have been to Deers Glade we will be going back often. The toilets were always being cleaned while we were there and spotless. Play area looked nice and well kept although we have no small children. Staff were excellent nothing was too much trouble, we had a pitch up by the fishing lake very large and well kept. The site shop is also reception and they do only keep basics, also you can get internet access card by the weekend and very well priced. We were left to get on with our break but staff were always available if needed. There was no excess noise after dark. The whole site is well kept and very clean. If you need pubs, chips shops etc., they are all not too far away.

Reviewer: Dongar 4 reviews from this member

 We only live up the road from this site but thought we would try it for a night away from home. We pitched our tent near the lake, which was nice, although there was a boggy/sewage smell around this area from time to time, which was slightly off putting when eating our bbq food!

The shower/toilet block was nice (& warm at 5.30am!), although after reading the other reviews on here I was expecting it to be spotless - I didn't think it was & it didn't really seem to have a proper clean for the 24 hours we were on the site.

This site is great if you like walking - there are plenty of walks in the woods & surrounding areas. We would definitely go back again for that night away from home, although I would maybe go at a less busier time as there were a few too many kids running around & screaming for my liking but that's my own opinion.

In general, I would like campsites to put a restriction on how much noise can be made in the morning as well as the evening. We were woken at 5am onwards by people talking - I work & would like to have a little lie-in on a Sunday morning!

 I recently stopped at Deers Glade as the concluding night of a week of camping around the country, and despite the weather (I brought the rain with me), it was a very pleasant end to a great week.

The site staff were very helpful, and personally showed me to my pitch (maybe I just looked shifty).

The ground was level, firm but easily pegged, and the site was well laid out, with probably a 50/50 mix of tents and touring caravans.

The site facilities are excellent. Clean and well maintained, with an on site shop for essentials. There's also a fishing lake on site.

My only doubt would be that given 2 showers and two toilets in the amenities block, it may be a bit of a contest at peak times. However, it was no problem during my stay. The prices are also very reasonable, being a mere fraction of the cost of many much less pleasant sites. One night for myself was £10.

The site is well placed for visits to Cromer, Norwich, and the coastal North East Anglia.

The pitches are pretty well sheltered, and even after a night of constant heavy rain, the ground didn't turn into the usual mudbath that you all too often find, so drainage seems pretty good.

The site is also very child friendly with a playpark in the centre.

Overall, a nicely located and well maintained and organised site, well worth a visit.

 I have just spent 4 days at this site I loved it.

The owners work way too hard to keep everybody happy.It was the week before Aug bank holls and the site was very busy but this was still no problem the showers were never more than 2 in the queue. The wind picked up but at night but the pitches were sheltered ok the grass was now suffering a bit as it is late in the season but this was ok as the weather was fine so no mud.

The little kids on the site went mad all day in the play area but were in bed by 9 oclock so no noise.The fishing set were at it 18 hours a day & seemed to catch some fish and were not at all disturbed by anybody else. Overall a well run and good campsite we loved it the price was great even after a 4 & 1/2 drive in & a 7 hour drive home we would go again.

Reviewer: Blanchy 4 reviews from this member

 We had an overnight stay to enable us to pitch our new tent. Tent was fantastic and so was the site. The toilets and showers were excellent and the overall cleanliness second to none. The campsite owners and staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Definitely a site to revisit for a longer break. The site was situated a long way from the main road so there was no traffic noise. We pitched in the tent area which is away from the electric hook ups but we were still within easy reach of the toilet block. There are 2 blocks on either side of the site so there is concern in having to walk too far for your morning shower. There is a play area for the children and fishing is available on site too.
