Reviewer: SamandRose 27 reviews from this member

 Let's get the obvious negative point over and done with first. There's no getting away from the fact that this site is extremely expensive. Our stay, in April-May, for 2 adults and a touring caravan, on a grass pitch came to £38/night. The one and only time we've paid more for a pitch than that was when it had a private hot tub. This one only had EHU. (Fully serviced pitches are also available, but these are even costlier. )

However.

This really is a site that you could stay on for a week and not leave. There's something to keep you occupied if you're aged anywhere between about 5 or 105. From miles of walking/running and cycling trails - explore one in early morning or late evening and expect to see a muntjac deer cross your path - to tennis courts, table tennis and petanque tables, to an indoor pool and gym (at extra cost). We didn't use this but it looked lovely and clean.

A 'village centre' houses a well-stocked shop, a bar and restaurant and a separate venue from which take away pizzas can be ordered. At Rose's insistence, I must give a special mention to the bacon baps, served on toasted pretzel rolls, which she said were the best she has ever tasted (and she's tasted a few)! And if you do want to venture a bit further, the site has its own stop on the Sheringham-Holt steam railway.

It would be a shame though if you weren't to leave the site, because you'd miss out on what the surrounding area has to offer. The villages of Sheringham and Holt are beautiful, the gardens and walks at the National Trust-owned Sheringham Hall - just a few minutes drive away - are spectacular and it's worth making the effort to visit either Wroxham or Horning (about an hour's drive) and hiring a little motor boat for an explore of the Norfolk Broads. I can't remember the last time I felt so relaxed and contented.

The sad thing was that the Government-imposed restrictions in place at the site of our visit hinder a site such as this more than most others. They weren't allowed to open their toilet and shower blocks (though these looked clean and modern from the outside) or serve food or drink indoors. And whilst the staff really were doing their best to operate an outside table service, they could do nothing to prevent the weather from being unseasonally chilly, or raining, or both, which quickly made you feel cold and your food even colder. I can't possibly justify marking the site down for this, but would love to be able to return and experience it when it's operating normally.

Better start saving, I guess.

 Very clean site.

Beautiful woods.

Lovely walk into the village.

Excellent facilities - only criticism was the limited choice of vegetarian fare in the restaurant (although the vegetarian burger was excellent)

 Really enjoyed our stay, good location, large pitch a couldn't fault the amenities,

We definitely will be going again in the future.

Would have been even better with more entertainment but covid 19 still here, so hopefully next time we go everythings back to normal

 A lovely, well-kept site that lived up to its environmental promises. A larger site, and a little more expensive than we would normally use. However, the site was well spaced out and the countryside was beautiful.

The facilities were very clean and Covid-19 guidelines were adhered to. If you have a dog, you are all placed together in the red section.

The weather was kind to us and we enjoyed the walks around Weybourne and the surrounding area.

 Amazing place & lovely walks through woodland. Views to Weybourne at sunset were spectacular. Was beyond our expectations as don't usually stay on large sites but it was so well laid out & very peaceful.

Showers were the best I have ever used on a campsite. Despite covid restrictions all was very organised.

Will definitely return next year.

Reviewer: 67wrob 1 review from this member

 Lovely site, very well organised and especially clean.

My only issue really was that the main toilets/showers were closed for cleaning at the busiest time between 7 & 8 am. Which didn’t seem very sensible.

The site is very scenic and tranquil. Facilities there if you need them.

Reviewer: Tarnyab 2 reviews from this member

 An excellent site with facilities to keep children entertained all day including tennis, table tennis, pétanque and best of all, the woodland trails and cycle routes.

Very clear, well marked pitches and on-site shop is excellent.

The highlight is the walk to the sea (woodland, followed by field, ending in coastal path - beautiful).

It is by no means a small site, but it is extremely well run and perfect for family holidays.

 Wonderful place to visit we attended the special weekend for their beer festival meeting friends.

They are so friendly stayed in the red field as we have a dog which are made very welcome. We went to the restaurant asked about meal allowed in the bar which we had the same menu and able to take our dog in as well dog biscuits even supplied.

Showers are fantastic lots of space family ones which are ideal lovely to see the children riding bikes safely around the site. This is local to us and they give you discount if you return so we will definitely come back.

 Large site, great for families! The square was lovely on an evening often offering live music. We experienced a story whilst there which was pretty scary but certainly didn't ruin our holiday.

Small supermarket on site offers everything you might need. Staff were helpful in offering advice about days out. Good play areas for the kids.

I would recommend this site.

Reviewer: Tripeaker 56 reviews from this member

 This was our second visit to Kelling Heath and even though it was unplanned until the day before arrival everything from booking to departing was really nice. We had to change our plans due to flooding at another site and the staff at Kelling Heath could not have been more helpful. We were with family in another unit with a dog so were placed on the Red area.

The pitches are all reasonably level and well marked out. Some have hard standing and have full facilities, water, EHU, drainage and TV point. Others are more basic but just as pleasant.

The toilets and showers modern and are kept clean and warm at all times. One thing we especially like is wandering off into centre which has a most excellent pub and very well stocked shop. There is a swimming pool and plenty of other places to chill out, which unfortunately we did not get the time to try, but from what we saw, all looked excellent.

The site makes a good effort to be environmentally friendly, which is nice to see. There is a great view- point from the site overlooking the sea, which is well worth seeking out. There is a platform for the train to stop which takes you into Sherringham or Holt, both are nice to visit.

We purchased a ‘Rover Ticket’ from reception, allowing us as many journeys as we wanted on the day for £20 per adult. It is more costly for the train when there are ‘Specials’ running which was the case during our stay.

The only gripe we had during our stay was not with the site, but with several fellow campers, who continually ignored the dogs on lead signs. Some dogs wandered free, completely unattended, on a regular basis and although not generally causing a nuisance on this occasion, that is not always the case!

Sherringham was very dog friendly with drinking bowls in the sea front pub and many of the shops.

Reviewer: Cc7979 22 reviews from this member

 Super site and probably the best site we have stayed at in the UK. We stayed over a very wet Easter but still had a great time.

The site is large and we were probably the furthest you could be from the central reception area (10 min walk), but we had bikes so it was a pleasant ride.

Nice size pitches, our was private with hedges, although some in the middle of our area were less so. Toilets were a very good standard.

The site really is wonderful for cycling with a vast rolling heath land dotted with mini nature reserves / lakes and play areas for the kids. There is a definite focus on the environment in all aspects of how the site is ran, which is really pleasing to see.

The central reception area is very pleasant with lots of facilities. We ate in the restaurant twice and the food was very good value. There is also an indoor play area here and arcade for the kids. During the day this is a run as a cafe / bar with some free craft activities for the kids - a great touch.

The indoor swimming pool is a very high standard and it is also a leisure centre / gym. Despite this all being excellent, one of the few downsides is how expensive it is to use. There was an offer on while we were there (the site was surprisingly quiet) so used a couple of times. At the standard price we would struggle to justify using it once. There is an outdoor pool which I believe is free, but this is only open seasonally.

There are other eating options with a pub and pop-up street food, but we didn't use. The shop was very well stocked, but pretty expensive as you would expect.

Also a call out to the cycle hire. We bought our own bikes, but the guy fixed my lads bike for a very reasonable price - superb service.

The site is well located for all the North Norfolk coast resorts with plenty to do.

Overall a great site that was reasonably priced at the time we visited (about £40 night / family five). The only negatives were the price of the indoor swimming pool and the fact that although we had plenty of space (due to it being quiet poor weather April) I would imagine feeling much more cramped if the site was busy judging by the pitch the layout. Can still highly recommend though.

 I love this campsite. Me and my family have been in total 15 times and I can’t see us ever stopping!

The amenities are fresh and clean and there is something to do for everyone.

 4th visit here but first in school holidays. This site is very popular with family/friends groups who mainly occupy adjacent plots to take advantage of the open pitches and set up with their tents on the outside. It creates a very convenient arrangement for everyone to share meals etc.

There is lots of space for children to play in. Climbing frames, walks, fishing pond, and cycling. We found that the children buzzing around the site on their bikes have little or no road sense.

Not all of the attractions have a cost but the fishing sessions where children are taught about the pond life and how to fish in crystal clear water are excellent and should not be missed. Booking is essential and all the equipment is provided free!

The shower blocks are very well equipped with the latest electronic showers. Plenty of washing places for pots and pans as well.

If you like your plots neatly manicured wth nice hedges giving you privacy you will not find many of them here. You will have to get used to campers of all ages walking through your plot especially if it provides them with the shortest route to the hub of the campsite.

In our experience Security needs to be improved as we had a white van scouting around our area at midnight when all traffic movement is banned. Reception staff a little dismissive when we reported the incident to them the following morning. We did see security staff walking around the site early every evening but remained concerned about openness of the site given the number of bikes etc are left overnights. I recommend that you lock bigs etc up every night and not to leave valuable accessories outside if you can help it.

Reviewer: Basichendo 13 reviews from this member

 We stayed here in the summer holidays but it still did not appear to busy. It's a much larger site than I anticipated (300 acres!)

Plus points:

- food in the bar and takeaway pizza place was good (pizza a little overpriced)

- loads of cycle routes

- good gym / indoor pool (extra but reasonable - £5/each pp each day)

- never queued for toilets / showers

- pond dipping free as was intro to fishing

- decent well stocked shop (emergency only as this was way too dear)

- helpful friendly staff

- good sized pitches and all seemed pretty level

- really good assault course for the kids

- seemed very relaxing (except Saturday night)

Improvement points

- more water points needed - expensive 'premium' pitch and the water taps were nowhere near

- launderette - each wash lasted 20 minutes! So two washes needed. More money for them

- no security gate. We found this really odd - huge site and literally ANYONE can come on unchallenged and help themselves.

- new toilets with digital showers / flush = style over substance, toilets often do not flush and it's grim.

All in all we really enjoyed the stay here.

 Great site for families. Loads to do for the kids and the bar is also great for the adults.

The location is spot on if you like walking. The pitches are quite small so not much privacy but other than that highly recommend it.
