Back down to sunny Norfolk on our way to Dover. Fancied a stop out of the way with no children or dogs. This place came out top of the list for a mini stay.
Very friendly lady who I dealt with and left alone with no intrusions for the duration of our stay. Basic site with water, ehu and cdp. Pitches are fantastically large with hedging separating them.
One can bike to Wells next to the sea albeit a rather busy town. Mini steam locomotive Wells to Walsingham. Binham priory is just a ticket down the road, a jolly interesting place with a bonus of having a cafe/farm shop next door with awfully good ice creams and smashing cheeses.
They also sell raw milk in a rather good way, chilled from a machine. Excellent public house in Binham, the food looked fabulous although we did not eat. Walsingham is a two mile stroll down a quiet country lane, another place of great interest Stiffkey with the story of the vicar Harold Davidson, check out the church, fascinating!
Lots to seemingly do in the area, one would need a good week or so.
Camp site was £15 per night which I had no grumbles with. A very clean, decent and quiet place to reside for a while, we would not hesitate to return hopefully for a few days more.
Excellent site.

2 x adults, Touring caravan, 9 nights ( Just returned - )
The Old Touring Field is a 5 member only Caravan Club CL Site, located in the village of Wighton near Wells Next The sea in North Norfolk. Getting there from the North is a doddle. A1, A46, A17 then follow the roads towards Fakenham and then Wells, don't go through Walsingham as the roads can be busy at certain times of the year due to pilgramages to the Our Lady of Walsinghams Shrine. Follow the instructions given by the owners, Mr and Mrs Green or those found in the caravan club list of sites. Dont follow the sat nav. Ours has a caravan setting and that tried to send us down a very narrow track !
The site is located on what was once the village football/cricket field. It is at the far end of the village at Copys Green. The owner also has another CL located in his farm ( Whey Curd Farm )
The entrance to the site is clearly marked and easy to get into even with large motor homes or tractor and trailers! Dont be put off by the couple of single track roads just prior to the village and on enerty to teh site. Norfolk drivers are very polite and courteous and will make room for you. The entire site is immaculately kept grass only but due to the very good drainage it is very firm and very dry ( two days of heavy rain had no effect ). The site is to the usual high standard that the caravan club requires of its CL. The pitches are HUGE ! each defined by a recently planted hedge which will in time provide privacy on the individual pitches. Each pitch has its own EHU, not sure what AMP but my wife had the 2kw fire and her hairdryer on one day and it did not trip out. The pitches are set in an 'L' shape. There are 6 marked out pitches so not sure what the extra on was for. In 10 days we were there there was a maximum of 5 but only for two days, the rest of the time was only ourselves and a couple on a motorhome. There are no toilets or showers on the site but there is fresh water supply, waste/toilet disposal, bins and information hut (leaflets on surrounding are etc )Normal pegs are ok for pegging out your awning but make sure its well pegged down ( we used our storm straps ) due to it being in an exposed position the wind can pick up. Only £12 including ehu, but that is of course Caravan Club Members only. The field and surrounding area is FULL of wildlife, great local walks and only a 3 mile journey into Wells. Try the Wells and Walsingham light railway. It is a 10 and 1/4 inch railway and runs from the far side of the village.
I would definitely recommend this site. Its peaceful, immaculate and very handy as a base for touring around Norfolk. This was our first visit and first time on a CL and we would definitely go back again.
Please note that this is an adults only site. :)
