 We found this site through the Guardian Camping Guide and we're glad we did! We were personally shown our (ample) pitch and all staff were very helpful. The toilet/shower and washing up block was clean; the freezer/laundry room had everything you could want (who irons whilst camping?); the shop stocked everything you could need; the play area and swimming pool was very popular with our young ones - and the pub was very popular with us! We shall be visiting again very soon!

Excellent Site!.
Probably the best site we have stayed at. There was something for the whole family. Our kids daughter 10 and son 8 thought the playground, tennis courts and just playing in the woods great. There is a pool but due to the bad weather we had we did not get to use it.
pub was good and the coffee shop had Internet access so we could email family.
Our pitch was in the rabbits grove as my wife and daughter liked the name. This was sloping but very secluded with only 3 units in our part.You will need a torch at night as it was so dark. There are larger fields that are flatter and hard standing pitches. We needed the full length of our 25m EHU to reach the power.
Make sure you order fresh bread and croissants from the shop they are fantastic for breakfast.
The location of the site means it is easy to get to the Broads and the coast. We used the park and ride to visit Norwich £3.20 to park the car including the bus to and from the city for the whole family, Great day out.
Toilets and showers we first class however at certain times (early morning and evening) the showers were very busy and water was a bit hit and miss but avoid these times they were fine.
Overall a fantastic site just wish you could guarantee the weather.

Wow! What a brilliant site!
I had seen the website but so often sites don't live up to your expectations.
Clippesby hall offers great pitches that match your requirements.
We opted to stay in the dell section and were delighted with the forest feel and complete privacy. Each pitch has ample space, even when the site fills up.
The facilities were good too. A simple shop selling local produce and on site bakery that means you can order fresh bread every day.
The Muskett arms bar was quiet and friendly, serving traditional food.
The site gives good access to Great Yarmouth and the Broads.
Overall a lovely family run campsite with a very warm welcome, offering pitches that are so much more than just a big square field.
I would recommend this campsite to anyone.

We had a weekend at this site. The staff are all very friendly. The site is very pretty, weel sheltered by lots of trees. Plenty of wildlife to see. Lots for everyone to do, the play area was great. The pub was very nice, local ales, good food too. There is a shop on site, most things in stock. The coffee shop is good, with homemade cakes on sale. The shower blocks were very clean. We will be back.

We chose this site due to location and facilities and the reviews we'd read. I must say it surpassed our expectations. It was nicer than all the other sites we've ever stayed at. The grounds are beautiful and the week we went it was quiet with just us and the peacocks in Pinewoods. The pitches are so well spaced out you have plenty of privacy.
The toilet and shower facilities are immaculate and stylish. I am disabled and found that the non-disabled showers and toilets were ample big enough for me. There wasn't the list of rules you usually find at these exclusive sites either.
The onsite pub actually feels like a nice pub with really nice food.
Susies cafe is well set out and comfortable. The hot chocolate is lovely as are the bread and pastries we sampled.
The shop is full of allsorts of things and prices reasonable.
We shall definitly be back.

Lovely site. Large pitches, loads of space for ball games and woods for kids to explore. Even when busy the site felt quiet. Lovely clean and warm shower blocks etc. Well stocked shop, great for bread. Bar on site was nice and not rowdy. Very peaceful at night. Would go back any time.

Just got back after May Bank Holiday, what a brilliant site! Plenty of toilet facilities which were lovely, warm, modern and clean. Great pitches, secluded, open, children's and adult places to choose from. Really friendly, helpful staff, nice little cafe where you can have a coffee, buy things you've forgotten and order fresh bread , croissants, etc for the following morning. The on-site bar/pub is an added attraction, you can have a meal here or simply a drink.Really well thought out site. The kids loved the play area, woods to hide in and the trees to climb, we'll definatly be back.

We had our first ever camping trip here over the bank holiday weekend and chose Clippesby because of the other great reviews. We were not let down, the staff were all very friendly, the site is well laid out and divided into different areas.
Our pitch was in the Orchard, right next to the childrens play area and opposite a shower block, so it was perfect for us with 4 children and a dog.
The pitches were a good size and well sheltered, some people had huge tents and others with smaller tents were tucked away into cosier areas, but there was plenty of room and it did not feel crowded at all.
The showers and toilets were lovely and clean, and warm and we didn't have to wait at any time.
The children were kept entertained with the play area and also had a game of mini golf, and you can hire bikes if you do not bring your own, there is plenty of space for ball games etc.
You can order fresh bread and croissants from the coffee shop (yum!) and although we didn't use the pub other campers were impressed.
Great Yarmouth has a great beach and nice sea front, and in the reception there are plenty of leaflets on other things to do in the area, there is also a very good camping shop up the road should you need anything else!
We couldn't have asked for any more and I wouldn't hesitate to return.

We stayed here for three nights from Easter Monday - just me, my 9 year old son and 2 year old daughter. Staff were lovely and helpful, the site was emptying slowly (no rushing) after the Easter weekend.
We pitched up in The Pine Woods, which is a lovely area though make sure you stay further up towards the trees like we did and not down near the toilets or you will not get any sun! For campers, be aware that there is a slope not steep but I had to wedge my two year old in her camping cot so she did not roll away!
Facilities are great, EHU available but we don't do that, toilets are pristine, shower hot and plentiful, and there is a family bathroom also.
My 9 year old escaped off (bikes would be good and you can hire them on site) with his walkie talkie (a Godsend for me). The site is quite large but you don't feel surrounded by others, kids have playground, and lots of woods to explore.
There is a pub which serves food but we cooked all our own, a shop which sells a good range - you can get pizzas, bread and also grab a coffee!
All in all a great time, we hope to return in May with friends.

This site is brilliant! We went with two other families who stayed on neighbouring pitches. Between us we had two campervans, a caravan, two tents, two awnings, a van and a car and I'm sure we could have easily fitted on to just 2 out of the 3 huge pitches we had! The site is well divided in to separate secluded areas by large trees and shrubs. There are no straight lines which is great! You really fell like you are camping in a clearing in the middle of a wood!
One of the two modern heated toilet blocks was close by. There is a family bathroom which was great for us with our 2 year old. There are hot showers too although the changing area in each is very small.
Our children loved the playground and the sandpit, exploring in the woods and riding their bikes. One of their favourite games was tracking down the noisy peacocks! They have a few on site including a white one!
All the staff are very friendly and the site is kept clean and tidy. The layout is brilliantly designed, you have excellent on site facilities including a shop selling local produce and a pub. You get what you pay for. As a family of 4, we paid £81 for 3 nights. (Bank holiday weekend) This includes the electric hook up. Very long hook up extension leads are loaned to you if you leave a £20 deposit at reception.
We brought our own bikes (but hired a ‘sit on tag-along’ for our 4 year old from the bike hire shop on site. They also have trailers for very small children). We had a nice gentle cycle ride to the pub at Thurne to watch the sailing boats on the broads and see the windmill.
This is our second trip to this site and will definitely return even though it is only a 10 minute drive from our home!

What a superb site! Have already booked a return visit for the summer ( the first time I have ever booked a second holiday at the same site). The pitches are very large, and well spaced. At the time of our visit the site was full (Easter B/H), but was not at all crowded. The site is divided up into small, secluded individual areas by mature trees. The shower blocks were beautifully clean and well maintained. Only had to wait for shower once (less than 5 mins) - at peak time! The on-site pub is very pleasant. Our children loved the playground. We also hired bikes on site - which was very convenient. The owners (John and Susie) and their staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. Lots to do in the surrounding area - many sandy beaches a short drive away, handy for exploring the Broads etc. Great Yarmouth is about 8 miles (large Asda for groceries).Cannot recommend site highly enough!

Visited this site in July, having visited some 20 years earlier with my parents. I was pleasantly surprised that the same family continue to run this site with same level of enthusiasm & high standards. The whole place has a real family feel, you are given a warm welcome & nothing is too much trouble for anyone! All the staff are exceptionally happy & friendly & you get a real feel that they all love working there!
This site is definitely THE best we have ever visited. There are plentiful water taps around the south park, which is where we stayed. The pitches are well sized and set around the edge of the field; so did not feel cramped in the slightest even though the site was full!
The shop is small, but has most essentials. You can pre-order freshly made bread from the bakery each morning, which is to die for!
The toilet/shower blocks were very modern & 1st class - the showers were the standard I usually find on my business trips in a 4* hotel & each toilet had a wash basin in. Everything was immaculate & cleaned regularly. Sometimes a short wait (5 mins) at peak times for showers, but was not a problem considering everything else was perfect!
The play area, pool & wonderful on site pub is away from the main fields so noise is kept to a minimum. The small pool is a real delight & has a real continental feel as does the outdoor area next to the bar. The park is extremely secluded & set in a a forest type environment, so no noise whatsoever from roads etc.
Site is an absolute gem & a credit to the whole team. I would recommend to everyone & will definitely be back!

What a superb site. The Owners have got this place perfectly set out. Absolutely gorgeous camping areas and facilities second to none. The staff were all very helpful, extremely courteous and very obliging in all areas.
The pub is really nice, as is the food (did seem a little expensive) and well worth a visit.
You will be seeing us again very soon.

Superb site, good sized pitches and well maintained and clean showers and loos. Site very busy at the weekend we were there because of beer festival but everyone behaved well and no late night disturbances. Only complaint is washing up facilities not really adequate so there were queues. Would definitely return if in the area again.

Just returned from a great week staying at Clippesby Hall. Yes, the school holidays were over and the weather was fabulous but they weren't the only reasons we had a great time - it really is a high quality site with an excellent layout, friendly staff and great facilities.
I would agree with previous postings that emphasise the small number of showers in each block which would pose problems during busier weeks I imagine. But that really is the only criticism I would have of this site. The shower blocks are cleaned regularly and were more than satisfactory.
There is so much to do in the area, you can head off in all directions - Great Yarmouth, Cromer, Norwich (for excellent shopping.) and there are some beautiful National Trust properties in the area including Blicking Hall and Sheringham Park. And you can of course have fun on the Broads by hiring a boat for an hour, or even the whole day.
