Date of Visit: December 2022  Confirmed Booking Unit:  Motorhome
Nights stayed: 3 Travelling as:  Mature couple
Reviewer: Pigswi 1 review from this member

 From the minute we arrived we felt welcome.

The facilities were spotlessly clean and very modern - and so warm! We went in December and it was bliss to walk into a warm shower block!

We ordered pastries for breakfast at the shop and the staff couldn't do enough for us.

There was a lovely dog walk on site too that led to an off site walk through some woods.

It was so perfect we stayed an extra night.

Reviewer: Slowstroke 1 review from this member

 Nice clean, spacious site, plenty of room on the pitches, toilets were both modern and spotless, some groceries in reception but you’ll definitely need to go Fakenham (6 miles approximately) for a bigger shop.

There is a useful takeaway service and a little bar on site which came in handy. The site has an adult area which was perfect for us, the rest of the site was broken up by various glades with a very small fishing lake fenced off in the centre.

Arrival and departure times will definitely need to be observed due to narrow access lane.

Ideally situated centrally on the North Norfolk coast being able to get to most coastal towns within 30-40 mins with Blakeney being a firm favourite.

Blickley Hall Estate (NT) well worth a visit, and a great meal can be had in the pub adjacent.

Reviewer: Oldster 2 reviews from this member

 Very nice site

Pitches well spaced

Toilets /showers clean & tidy

Bar and take away good food portions large, roast on Sunday could share between two

Only thing to complain about shop does not sell newspapers so have to drive approx 5 miles to get one, means packing up van to do so

When visiting again will take a bike

Reviewer: Anthon 1 review from this member

 A lovely site. Well kept and clean. Unfortunately we were put on pitch number 39 which was opposite the toilet/shower block and washing up area and also the waste disposal, water and recycling area.

This resulted in it being very noisy when people were doing their washing up and filling up their water containers as well as emptying their waste both in the morning and evening.

This made it very unpleasant for us as we just wanted some peace and quiet whilst we were there.

There were also quite a few groups of people who clearly had no respect for their fellow campers as they found it necessary to shout and talk loudly late into the night whilst having quite a few drinks. Because of this we came home a day early as the noise was just unbearable.

Reviewer: J806 1 review from this member

 Booked this site every year and never disappointed. More group bookings than there has been in the past, but not noisy. Everyone friendly and a warm welcome given by the owner.

The restrictions have now been relaxed from last year, but I never felt too crowded in either the toilet block or other facilities.

More benches outside the bar meant that distance could be kept, which made for a more enjoyable experience. Weather not brilliant this year, but the field where I camped was not waterlogged and at no time did I feel I’d have to pack up and leave due to wet weather.

Highly recommended.

 Booked this site due to the good reviews. We were not disappointed. Well laid out site, immaculately kept, good size pitches.

Lovely staff. Restaurant is now open and certainly adds to my holiday, not having to cook meals.

Some lovely pubs not too far away. Had a wonderful meal at the Wilveton Bell.

Reviewer: CorkyBrit 11 reviews from this member

 This is a superior site for touring caravans, motorhomes and tents. It also has B&B accommodation and self-catering cottages available. There is a restaurant, but at the moment due to Covid restrictions is open only for take-away meals.

The site itself is right in the heart of the countryside in a tree lined picturesque setting with a pond in the centre of the site. The facilities are excellent and clean, with electric and water available on many pitches.

There is a small playground for children and a games room which was also closed due to Covid. The many north Norfolk coastal resorts are within easy driving distance. The owner David is very courteous and helpful.

I would definitely visit Old Brick Kilns again.

 Lovely site. Immaculately clean considering the terrible weather (wettest May in 10yrs).

Very friendly and the on site bakery was a real treat.

Loved the fact that recycling rubbish facilities were available.

Nights stayed: 6 Travelling as:  Retired couple
Reviewer: Dave and Wendy 35 reviews from this member

 We last visited this in 2018, not that we didn't want to come back. Due to ill health and then the covid-19 we had to put camping on hold.

This is a lovely well kept site the only thing that put a damper on it was another camper thought it was ok not to have his dogs on a lead and allowed them to run free.

However this is a great site even with the restrictions we had a great stay. The new wc/shower block is now open (being built at time of last visit) and is a plus to the site. Barneys take away was very good and at a fair price.

The staff are very friendly and helpful and site is ideal position to visit this part of Norfolk.

We will be back to this lovely site.

 Really enjoyed our stay here - 4 night stay in August - social distancing measures well thought out - lovely setting - nice staff - great pitches.

Would definitely recommend.

Reviewer: ToadOfToadhall 20 reviews from this member

 This is a really excellent campsite and one we will definitely return to for several reasons.

First, it is large but well spaced so never felt overcrowded even though it was full.

Second the facilities are well maintained with three separate toilet/shower blocks. A very simple but effective social distancing system ensures there are no more than two people in the facilities at any time but queuing was minimal.

Third, and most impressive for us, was the customer service. We had to cut our stay short as our dog was taken ill. The staff could not have been more helpful or understanding and immediately refunded the remaining pitch fees, something we had not expected and are very grateful for.

So, we will be back sometime soon.

Reviewer: Lindaa 1 review from this member

 Lovely site well kept. The shower block was extremely clean, there was a system in place to deal with Covid 19. Takeaway was available if needed.

Pitches were large and gave you enough space whatever size caravan you had. Friendly staff and helpful. Really happy to be away after everything so certainly appreciated the site being open.

Have recommended to friends already.

Reviewer: Theothertwin 71 reviews from this member

 This site offers many options for camping whether you are under canvas or have your own caravan or motor home. You can have a fully Services plot, electricity only, or none. Tents can have electric hook up or none also. The site also has luxury Certified location pitches with their own showers etc.

On site you will find a brand new shower block, games room, play area wand a nice restaurant that offers breakfasts between 8. 30 and 10. 30 daily and evening dining on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings. The site has a small shop and cook bread to order.

It also has a small fishing lake with a mixture of silver fish and carp. Day tickets cost £3 per day, £7 for 3 days or £15 per week. Dogs are allowed but as is normal with dog owners I find they ignore the fact that their pets should be on a lead at all times because the owners think they are well behaved. I have never seen any rules that say that and here it was no exception. Dogs were loose near the green play area and running amongst children playing with kites,

The only downside here is that you will need to drive to all attractions as the site is not on a bus route. There were no pubs within walking distance although Thursford is close by.

The access for new arrivals is time controlled as the road to the site is very narrow. We thought we could not arrive till after 1 o clock but it is worth checking as there are certainly no passing place should you meet another caravan. It would be very difficult it you met a car or other vehicle.
