Date of Visit: August 2010 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Jamanor 1 review from this member

 It was our first camping holiday and although we only stayed for 3 days we loved it.

The facilities were clean with plenty of hot water.

The owner was very helpful and friendly.

We were pitched next to the main road which could be noisy, which made it hard to sleep at times.

Very easy to find your surroundings as there is a map in the facilities, although several of the leaflets are out of date, as we went to visit a restaurant it had been closed for quite some time.

All in all, we had a great time and would recommend this site to anyone looking for a short get away.

 A lovely campsite. The owner came straight out on our arrival and was extremely friendly and helpful. He even lent us a cable for our electric hook-up as ours was not quite long enough.

The campsite itself consists of three fields with at the moment only one shower/toilet block although a new larger one is in the process of being completed. Having said that the facilities were perfectly adequate and at no time did we have to queue to use them. The facilities were kept to a high standard and were cleaned regularly and most importantly for us the showers were nice and hot.

Although the site itself is quite near to the main road we found it to be nice and quiet although you can hear a little traffic noise at night.

There is a lovely little pub called The Grange just down the road and the food is excellent.

For all your shopping needs there is a large superstore about a mile away.

We have a very large family tent and there was no problem with finding a pitch as can sometimes be the case.

There are plenty of places to visit in the surrounding area and we spent a lovely couple of days visiting the Castle at Castle Rising, Sandringham and the beautiful victorian resort of Hunstanton.

We will definitely be making a return visit.

Reviewer: The.Reapers 4 reviews from this member

 We have stayed at this site for the last 2 years in July as part of our annual Skoda Owners Club (East Section) Rally.

What can I say, this is a fantastic site and the owner, Paul and his family, are always very friendly and helpful.

The fields are nice and flat and there is always plenty of space for everyone.

There is no play area for children but the is plenty of space for them to run around or play footy if they wish.

The facilities are of a high standard and we are looking forward to our visit this year so we can try out the new amenity block (we might even book in there for a couple of nights just for this).

Some reviewers have commented about the road noise from the A47. Yes it is close and is there in the background but Paul has tried to combat this with the use of very high conifer hedges, which do a very good job of reducing the sound. I never found it intrusive or irritating and in the summer the sound of cars and motorbikes 'giving it some welly' up the A47 is quite amusing.

We have visited The Gate pub and found it to be very pleasant and value for money. The owners even remembered us from visits the previous year!

Beers Of Europe is another regular stop to stock up for the weeks stay. Always a good selection and one of the only places in the UK you can get the Maltese beer Cisk.

Also just over the way from the beer shop is the MaxView shop for all your portable satellite needs. Sky TV in the caravan. Luxury !

All in all a great site in a good location. Go and visit and see for yourself.

 Fantastic little site near to Kings Lynn. Nice flat surface electric Hook up quiet and restful. Toilets and showers spotless(cleaned twice a day)

And a new shower and toilet block nearing completion. Lovely walks and 'The Gate Pub' 20 minutes away serving an excellent menu.

Paulie the owner was very very helpful and has an amazing sense of humour.

We will definitely return.

 We spent 6 days at this site and loved it.

The facilities were spotlessly clean and the grass was cut regularly. There is a bus into Kings lynn and from there the buses run regularly into Peterborough, Spalding and all the other neighbouring areas. Great if you have a bus pass! It is very close to Sandringham which we love to visit, not to mention all the beach resort nearby.

There were only 2 toilets for ladies and 2 showers, the same for gents, but there were no queues even though there was a rally on one of the fields. The very large new block should be finished within a couple of weeks.

Paul the owner is very friendly and very helpful and although the site is very well run there were

No notices around banning various activities which you can find on many sites. I never heard any traffic noises and I will certainly visit this site again. Next time I may get some Birthday cake!

Date of Visit: May 2010 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Bevvybabe2 4 reviews from this member

 First outing of the year. Level grassy well kept pitches, good windbreaks of mature conifers and several large oaks add interest. Made up of three large fields.

Toilet/shower/washing up facilities a little stretched during this busy weekend kept spotlessly clean but very compact, but new block looks exciting and ultra modern.

Good facilities for shopping in nearby Kings Lyn. Local pub unfortunately not serving food on the one day we wanted to go. Would visit this site again when new block opened. Noise from nearby road and stock car racing very loud, but something you get used to. 


Date of Visit: August 2009 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: DplusG 28 reviews from this member

 This was a real last minute push- Scotland weather was going to be atrocious so we had a last minute re-think and were lucky to be offered a pitch with hook-up after trying several tens of sites. It is a nice site, a bit near the A47 but not intrusively so- especially at weekends when there is less HGV traffic.
The owner was extremely friendly and laid-back but there was no riotous behaviour or excessive noise at night. The planning application for more toilet and wash facilities was good to see- sorely needed since the small block currently in place is not adequate when the 3 fields are full.

Value for money was ok- £18 for the tent and hook up for 2 adults but on the limit considering the washing facilities.

We'd recommend this site for a weekend- walk able local pub with good grub and great access to Sandringham and the Norfolk coast etc.

Reviewer: Claxton 2 reviews from this member

 Stayed here in peak season. Plenty of room, all electric pitches, and only £13 a night! We are caravan club members and have always stayed at Sandringham. But no more! Why pay £22 a night when just down the road you pay £13.

The A47 is noisy, but not disruptive. Very small shower cubicles but showers are powerful,hot and free. The owner is very helpful, even providing plastic garden chairs for small tent campers.

Good security with CCTV, the owner would be out within seconds of a new car arriving on site.

Will definitely use this site in future.

Reviewer: She743 9 reviews from this member

 Stayed for a weekend in mid-July. The site is level with well-grassed pitches and is surrounded by a high hedge. The owners were friendly and welcoming.

The main road does run alongside the campsite which was quite noisy, but did quieten down at night. Not sure what it would be like during the week.

There is a small shower block although we did not use these.

There is good access to King's Lynn and easy access to a number of small villages with good pubs.

Reviewer: Corporate Camper2 4 reviews from this member

 We've just returned from a one-night stay at this site, we were quite impressed and will probably return at some point.

The owner/warden was very polite and friendly, both on the 'phone and in person. On arrival at the site we were directed to the general area of our pitch and told to choose whichever pitch suited us most.

We stayed during the second May Bank Holiday and the site wasn't anywhere near capacity, there was plenty of space left.

It's probably true that the facilities are basic, but the site has everything we needed. The toilets and showers were spotless and although I could imagine there being queues at peak times we didn't have any problems in that regard.

Other reviews have mentioned road noise and this is something we did notice too. Without thinking, we pitched as close to the A47 as we could possibly get, it's a lesson learnt! The site is large enough that I'm sure the road noise won't be an issue for the majority of pitches.

The site is minutes away from Kings Lynn (and the big Tesco store there), and it's the ideal base for exploring North Norfolk.

All in all, it's a good basic site in a good location.

Reviewer: Swiftsure 4 reviews from this member

 Stayed here from Thurs 20/03 to Mon 24/03.

Site well laid out, plenty of room and choice, probably due to weather.

Many cancellations, but good drainage in most parts and very helpful and friendly owner, could not do enough for you.

Only one toilet block, but could do with another in other lower end of site, clean and well serviced on a regular basis.

Other reviews state traffic noise, did not find it obtrusive, trees around site are now matured and give good sound barrier to main A47.

Plenty of space for children, safe and secure.

Will definitely return again as location is ideal for being out and about in the area, especially in the summer months.

Visited this campsite for a short Easter Break and although not expecting very much was generally not impressed.
We didn't get much sleep as the traffic from the very near main road does not let up all night, added to that we were not advised when booking that there would be a disco on-site held in a marquee.
Site facilities were basic; few toilets / showers and the dishwashing facilities are situated in the toilets , we took our washing up home with us.

 August 2004
Spent a few days on this site leading up to bank holiday weekend. Site was quiet the first few days which facilities seemed to just about cope with. By the weekend the site was full to capacity and the queue for the ladies shower was 7 deep at times. There was only one shower and 3 toilets for the whole site which meant queues were inevitable. The mens toilet and shower block has recently been refurbished and the ladies are currently in the process of. Dishwashing facilities are also situated within the mens and ladies toilets.
Traffic noise was a problem although was alleviated by purchasing a set of earplugs from the chemist in Kings Lynn! Tent, 2 adults and a dog was reasonably priced at £8.75 a night. No shop on site but there is a large Tesco store nearby. Nearest pub about a mile away but cannot walk there due to heavy traffic and no pavement. Owner, very pleasant chap, gave us a folder on arrival, full of local info which we found most helpful. All in all the site was ok 


Date of Visit: May 2006 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: Kipperkid 26 reviews from this member

 CCC Certificated site (members only). Mostly level, grass kept cut. 5 vans, room for quite a few tents with or without ehu and a rally field (which was where we were). Ground seemed to drain fairly well - rained quite a bit while we were there and no-one got stuck!

Toilets/showers/handbasins and dishwashing sinks kept clean, washbasins not in cubicles. Free hot water. EHU either 6 or 10 amp.

site owners friendly and helpful. some tourist info leaflets in facilities block.

Would be quite willing to go back again - only down side was a small amount of road noise.

Reviewer: Julzgeraghty 8 reviews from this member

 Site rather basic but facilities were clean. Not many people here when we were but I can imagine if site was full then prepare to queue. Did not find traffic noise particularly intrusive - and I'm used to a quiet village. Nice rally field.
