Just returned from a lovely weekend stay at Deers Glade. No photos I have seen of this site do it justice. It is a beautiful site, well laid out with the nicest facilities I have ever come across on a campsite.
We stayed in a tent on the non electric part of the park, and were allowed to pitch where we liked as long as we left 4m from our neighbours.
The toilets and showers were lovely. No push button showers, these had taps, and the hot water never ran out!
The site appeared to be full, or near to it, and there were lots of people around, but the layout of the park means you never feel overcrowded, and although we were near the play area, and there were lots of children around, noise was never a problem.
The fishing lake is lovely to walk around, and the woodland walks really nice.
This is a very family friendly site, and although this time it was just me and my partner, we plan on returning with our chidren. The shop stocks lots of essentials, including suncream which I forgot. The staff are very friendly, and although we didn't need to speak to them during our stay, some others did, and they were very helpful.
This is definitely a site which I want to return to soon. Had a look at the camping pods too, and they are in a lovely wooded area, so we plan on trying one out next summer.
Where do I start? Well, we were greeted and shown to our pitch, and asked if it was ok. It was. We were shown the water taps, toilet blocks, chemical toilet disposal.
The site was spotless. We hired bikes for the day, no need to book and cycled to Holt. I got the impression that if we got into difficulty the wardens would come and get us. We had a lovely chat with them when we made it back!
The shower block has underfloor heating, bliss. The showers, well, there were only two in the block we were using with a polite note asking not to stay too long. You didn't need to stay long, the showers had deluge heads, and taps! No buttons! Hot water, and adjustable. I was in and out in less than 5 minutes as they were so efficient. The washing up area was always clean with a dry floor.
We used Tesco in Aylsham and Morrisons in Cromer for food. No fresh meat or fish at Tesco, all pre packed. Morrisons had excellent choice. Good local shops in Cromer, fish, butchers.
We were given maps with walks and cycle rides from the site, barely used the car.
We don't have children but the play area looked good, and the geese and goslings were a hit with young and old.
We just arrived back from our second stay here. Yet again, we had a fantastic time. There were two families, with children aged 1,3,4,7&9. They all loved it!
Everywhere was clean as usual. However, dog mess was a problem but was quickly sorted by the owners. Its a shame the dog owners do not keep an eye on what their dogs are doing!
The animals were not there for some reason which the kids missed but we went for a lovely walk to see the deers across the road.
There really is very little to fault about this site! We've already booked to go in July! Be aware that the site is getting booked up very quickly so aim to book as soon as you can. We could not get in for August
Stayed 4 nights first week in June. Site is very well laid out and spotlessly clean. Staff extremely helpful.
Location is perfect for visiting North Norfolk coast, Norwich, Norfolk Broads etc. Access to site is good, very well sign posted.
Noise was kept low at night time, security barrier at night so site felt safe and secure. Toilets/showers spotless never saw them dirty and they were well used ( site at full capacity)
The owners have put a lot of thought in to planning this site it is very nature friendly take a walk over the road follow duck and dog signs there is a lovely walk around a bird fowl sanctuary and a woodland walk.
This is probably one of the best sites we have stayed at, we will be back.
Just returned from a seven night stay. We booked in January and could not get an electric pitch so we knew the site was popular.
We pitched right next to the lake in the non electric area. Having read all the excellent reviews on this site we did have high expectations and these were more than exceeded.
We have stayed at several sites over the years we have been camping and this has to be the best. There is no need to repeat what has already been said about this great site only that we have booked to go back next year (electric pitch) and we were not the only ones.
The fact that you rebook a year in advance says everything that needs to be said.If you had a wish list of the perfect campsite deers glade would tick all the boxes.
WOW! The reviews are true. This campsite really is as good as it sounds!
We have just spent whit half term week here: 4 adults, a 13 year old, a 2 year old and a dog, and would go as far as to say it is the best campsite we have stayed at in the UK.
We camped in the non-electric section, which is right at the back of the site. Plenty of space for everyone, and you are even allowed to put up gazebos, tent stores and set up courts, wickets, nets etc right next to your tent.
The electric pitches were more regimented with hedges to mark each one out, and were nearer to the wash blocks, shop and play area.
There are 2 washblocks, one to each side of the camp. The showers are truly luxurious. Always warm and clean, plenty of hot water and not too much queuing even though it was busy. It seems like they are cleaned about every 1-2 hours.
The shop is well stocked with camping bits you might have forgotten (and new airbeds when yours pops)and sells proper Mr Whippy ice creams at £1.
The play area is very popular and it was lovely to see kids from age 2-16 all playing together nicely! When we were there is was very hot and sunny so the kids were all filling up lots of water balloons all day long!
Right next to the play area there are about 8 goats, 2 sheep a donkey and some birds. Our kids loved feeding them grass and they seemed very tame. We didn't fish in the lake but lots of people were and they seemed pretty chiled out.
The staff were very very friendly and helpful. Thye recommended a pub to try for a bar meal (The Foundry Arms in North Repps) and gave directions to an Indian take away (North Walsham) both of which were great.
We also used their dog sitting service on 2 days, which is very good value at £7. They even return your dog to your tent - fed, watered and walked!
There are some nice walks around by the site in the woods, and lots to do nearby if you feel like getting out. We went to Cromer (typical old fashioned beach resort - good for crabbing), Wroxham Barns (farm, crazy golf and fun fair - great for kids and teenagers) and Houghton Hall (stately home and beautiful gardens near Kings Lynn - highly recommended).
The only point we feel people might need to be aware of is that the camp is quite noisy all evening, right up until 11pm. The 'no noise after 11pm rule' is obeyed by everyone but not until 11pm on the dot! People were still enjoying a boisterous game of rounders in the play area one night right up until then. It didn't bother us as we had a little campfire and sat talking but I guess it might be if you wanted to go to sleep earlier.
We visited Deers Glade for the first time this year for a long weekend. The Staff were very helpful and friendly and we could not fault the park at all.
The washing facilities were very clean and there was plenty of hot water. It was my partners first time camping and we couldn't have picked better place to go for a first timer.
We took our two dogs with us and found plenty of places to walk them. We had an amazing weekend and will definitely be going back for another stay, maybe for a little longer.
The site is very well sign posted, with brown signs on the main road. However not actually signed 'deers glade' until your on top of it.
The reception is welcoming, Christian escorted us to the non electric pitches and we had a pick of where ever we liked. We chose a place in the corner of the sight away from the pond and a rather testy pair of canada geese, but this was a bit of a mistake.
The site slopes away from the pond,and the main path to the toilet block is in between the bushes so people kept passing our tent. In future id pitch up on the other side of the field.
The site is peaceful during the day, there is a nice area for children to play, some goats the kids can feed.The site has been developed with wildlife in mind, so there are some nice areas to walk.
The bathrooms are very clean, a constant supply of hot water and never a cue for the showers. There are two wash blocks for both sides of the campsite. However toilet roll seemed to be running short on the second day so perhaps is wise to take some spare just in case.
At night the site can be a little noisy. The main road is only one field away and could be heard clearly at night. Also there is a nearby peacock that like sto make himself known. So I would suggest that if you are easily disturbed by noise take some ear plugs.
Bbq's and fires are allowed as long as they don't mark the grass.
The site allows dogs, which also caused a lot of noise. But I think this was just the dogs we were near and the owners were very apologetic.
The site locks at 11pm and has a security guard present. Although this is reassuring, not a lot seemed to be done when some other campers started playing football and hitting tents and cars with there ball.
On arrival all campers are given a booklet with local attractions. The near by chippy 'The Fish Shop' is definitely worth a visit. National trust felbrigg is not too far away and is a pleasant day out.
Over all the site is quite lovely for families and is and excellent base for north Norfolk.
We have just got back from 2 nights staying in their brand new Camping Pods - we were literally the first people in them that afternoon having only just been completed that morning! The site is lovely and very welcoming. The Pods are advertised for up to 4 adults but in my opinion that would be very snug-certainly 2 adults and perhaps 1 to 2 children. But if the weather is bad that would mean there wouldn't be enough 'living' space inside them. Having said that they were very welcoming to suggestions for improvement ranging from having little trollies to take your things from the car park down the wooden walkway to the pods, as well as having a big outside umbrella to cover the cooking area in case of rain (something they did not have but luckily the weather was glorious the time we were there!)
I cannot recommend this site enough and the camping pods are such a lovely idea for a short break away especially for a newbie camper like me! They have heating, electric and a flatscreen TV! Far more than a lot of pods around other sites spread across the UK.
We loved it so much we are back next weekend with our tent and bringing our 2 year old and dog (2 year old had chicken pox so couldn't come with us this weekend!)We are also planning to book the pods again although they get booked up quickly as most good things do! I love this place!
We just arrived back from spending 3 nights here with family. We had 4 adults and 4 children (3,7,9 and 13) This campsite is truly amazing. If you are looking for a quiet, very clean, family campsite this is the one for you! The staff are extremely polite and friendly as its a family run site.
There is a very small lake for fishing, a play area with sand pit, animal pen (goats, donkey and lambs) and plenty of space along with a lovely picnic area. The children were able to go off and play and we could keep watch from our tent.
The toilets and shower facilities were extremely clean and warm. Although the site has around 120 pitches I never had to queue to use them. There are 2 blocks and each block consisted of around 4-5 toilets, 2 showers (very warm!) and 2 cubicles with a sink and mirror as well as the sinks to wash your hands. A good hairdryer is also available free of charge!
There are washing up facilities and a laundry room which included washing machines (£1), tumble dryers and iron (with a refundable deposit). The shop stocked essentials along with some penny sweets and ice creams for the children. There are also drinking water taps situated around the site for you to use. A security guard was on site in the evening.
We found it to be really quiet, safe and very friendly overall. We have already booked again to go in June! Be aware that you do need to book well in advance as it does get busy, especially at weekends.
If you book here you definitely will not be disappointed!
This is a lovely site that we have visited many times. The toilets/shower facilities are excellent and very clean. The site staff are very friendly. They were also very helpful when we arrived on a friday night without booking and couldn't stay the next day as they were fully booked but they rang around the local area on our behalf and secured us a pitch on another site nearby.
For us the location was ok but it did seem a little bit out of the way for us considering most local attractions were a drive away rather than a walk. (once pitched we don't drive anywhere since we have a camper van)
They have cycle hire facilities on site but we managed to be there on a weekend when the hire fleet were off for a service (so check that before you book if you wish to hire a bike).
In summary it is a very impressive campsite for tents, caravans and motorhomes with friendly staff, lovely facilities and a beautiful setting for it all. The only reason we don't camp there more often is the lack of footpaths in the surrounding area that provide a good long circular walk (the dog walking routes are simply too short to entertain us for a full day)
Caravanners, tenters, families and fishermen would love this site!
Another review submitted late but as someone else has already stated, 'better late than never'.
We picked this site purely on location and ease of access and because the site we had stayed at on a previous visit to Norfolk had received some negative reviews.
We can heartily recommend this site. The owners were really friendly and helpful, they are clearly putting a lot of work into improving and maintaining a high standard of camp site. The toilet blocks are probably the second best we have used, very clean and warm.
Overall a lovely site and one we would definitely use again when we next return to Norfolk.
What a fantastic site. The people are really friendly and extremely helpful. The pitches are spacious and the facilities are extremely clean. What a wonderful way to spend a few days relaxing!
Although if you are feeling energetic there are plenty of walks to take and its only a few miles drive into Cromer if you fancy a day at the beach. Although we don't have small children, there is a small area with swings, slide and climbing frame and they can play ball.
There is a small enclosed area with goats and ducks etc. Also there is a small fishing lake. The woodland walk is a must and you will probably come across the local wild deer. We will definitely visit again.
The minute we pulled up to the entrance it had a good feeling, parked up at reception and they made us very welcome and escorted us to our site. Plenty of space around my site, the toilets are the best I have been to in a long while.
The staff could not have been more helpful, we will be back next year worth every one of their 5 stars. All though there was a lot of other caravans, tents, and motorhomes you felt that you had more than enough space not like a lot of other sites.
I had a small problem with my caravan but the staff were keen to help many thanks to all of them.
