  • Near Great Yarmouth and the Norfolk Broads
  • Two parks in one: family-oriented and more quiet sections
  • Indoor and outdoor pools, gym, crazy golf, bar and restaurant
If you can’t decide whether to opt for an idle break or something a bit more lively, then have the best of both at Breydon Water Holiday Park, near Great Yarmouth and the Norfolk Broads. It’s essentially two parks in one: the first is Yare Village, for those looking for an active, family-oriented vibe, with its toasty outdoor pool (open from May to September, weather permitting), crazy golf, and a buzzing schedule of sports, kids’ activities and evening entertainment. Just 10 minutes’ walk away is the more sedate Bure Village, where there’s an indoor pool and a fully-equipped gym. The site also has wifi in the Waterside bar and restaurant.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Location near Burgh castle & interesting walks. Easy access to public transport to places such as Great Yarmouth, Gorleston, Lowestoft and other surrounding places of interest.
Free entertainment , use of sports facilities and restaurants.
The actual touring pitch was well serviced and toilet facilities clean. The whole place suited our needs. It was really cheap to stay here.

Disliked: We read the reviews about the showers & the push button that you have to keep pressing. I found a few of the shower cubicles press buttons stayed on for a few seconds. You can use a teaspoon to jam in button to keep the water running.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Great place to stay, amenities and staff very good and friendly, great surrounding area with vast areas to walk and take in our British heritage

Near by is the river yare and Roman ruins of Burgh Castle

We had a great stay and will definitely book again.

Disliked: The only one negative we have is that you have to hold the button in, to have a shower, which is a bit of a pain, especially when washing one's hair 🤔

Electric grass pitch

Liked: First I have to say every member of staff we spoke to was simply amazing so helpful, and could not seem to do enough. Evening entertainment was second to non and kept our kids well entertained. Outdoor pool was brilliant staff again made it even more fun by throwing and splashing water on kids. Indoor pool was more than enough got, very busy when whether turned bad. Close drive to Morrisons and retail park about 10 mins drive into Great Yarmouth good size pitches, toilets and showers kept clean. Had an amazing mini holiday in a beautiful part of the country.

Disliked: Not disliked but as to be expected, touring field looked a little drab grass was non existent in certain parts, toilets are a little dated. I am not sure if I missed it but I thought it would have been on the pre arrival email highlighted and bold there is a width restriction coming out of Yarmouth to the site if u go down the retail park past the Ford garage.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Toilets were close but run down- water leaked from cisterns and loose fittings around wash area. Showers were ridicukous in that the button had to help held continuously to get water - not helpful when showering young children. The late night noise curfew of 11.30 is also completly unsuitable for familys. Having the entertainment facilities was novel and the children enjoyed this. Having access to both pools was a bonus.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Football pitch area, reception staff were friendly and helpful.

Disliked: The toilets were always dirty with no toilet roll. No toilet roll in the toilets in the pool area. The outside pool was dirty with rubbish floating in it. The lifeguards in both pools had no interest in cleaning at all and just sat around chatting or on their phones. Having to wait until 10:15am for the pool to open when from 10am to 10:15am the lifeguards pushed a squeegy mop around but didn't bother to actually pick up litter from around the pool. Overpriced and poor quality food in the entertainment hub.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: It has a lot of facilities for kids, the indoor swimming pool is good.(I didn't use the outdoor one, 3 days stay doesn't have enough time to play everything.)
The playground is well-maintained, and kids can have fun even if they aren't interested in the activities at that moment.
All staff are nice and helpful and the welcome pack is useful giving everything you need to know for your stay.
Toliet, shower, water point, waste water and washup area are next to each other in a good separation, nice and clean.

Disliked: The only and major complaint is the shower, it is the one-button pressing type of shower, cannot control the temperature and it is too short for 1 press(not even 5 seconds), I can finish my hair in 1 press. It will be great, if it can last for 10 seconds.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: - Food was decent
- Nice arcade to keep kids entertained in bad weather ect

Disliked: - Food app might not be user friendly for technophobes
- Swimming only at very selected times so even though indoor and outdoor pools advertised don’t plan on swimming and lazing by the pool - you will get a swim slot and need to book
- Indoor pool is up the road - the place has aged a bit and feels like an extension of an older site nearby - so also a long walk or drive from camp site to indoor pool

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Location, everything you could possibly need in sense of shops are a short drive away
Beautiful walks to be had directly from the site
Play park was lovely

Disliked: Loud music and children playing loudly until midnight every night - perhaps a warden going round to gently remind people to be mindful of others after a certain time would help.
Pitch was dusty and extremely uneven with deep holes in the ground.

Local attractions

Great Yarmouth, a short drive away, has masses of attractions – too many to list here, but to give you an idea: the Sea Life aquarium, the exhilarating indoor circuit at Karting 2000, mini choo-choos and tiny townsfolk at Merrivale Model Village and Gardens, and the Elizabethan House Museum, where visitors can don Tudor fashions and find out what life was really like below stairs for Victorian scullery maids. There are more than 50 acres of adrenaline rides, plus parrot and sea lion shows and an Alpine chair lift at Pleasurewood Hills in Lowestoft. For those seeking more genteel pursuits, also near Lowestoft is Somerleyton Hall, a Tudor-Jacobean pile with pleasure gardens and a maze, home to the Crossley Carpets dynasty. Drive a little further and you can explore the wetlands and waterways of the Norfolk Broads, or head south to gorgeous Southwold and Aldeburgh in Suffolk.
