Liked: Stayed here recently so we could go to the wells next the sea Xmas tide parade. The site was very good considering it was out of season when we stayed. Nigel met us when we arrived with a warm welcome and showed us around the site and told us about places to go out for food and drink in the area.
The pitch was level enough not perfect but you wouldn't really notice it unless you really paid attention to it.
The facilities were fine and not far to walk to but we did have the site to ourselves for one night and we was on the 1st pitch. But definitely worth the stay.

We are sorry that on this occasion we have not scored a higher rating from you and that you would not return, but we are pleased that you enjoyed our fabulous location right by the beach and that despite your issues you had a great time exploring the Norfolk Coast :)

Liked: Warm welcome from the owner. Location was great for the beach however, not much else around.
Disliked: Toilets were absolutely disgusting. No toilet roll in most and none were cleaned the whole time we were there. Disliked how much we paid to have a dog with us when we didn't get anything for that cost.

From the manager: Thank you Christian for taking the time to leave a review, we are so pleased that you enjoyed a warm welcome and that you found our location here eby the beach to be a great one. We are very rural and love being surrounded by the Norfolk Countryside. We are sorry that our facilities were not up to scratch on your visit, we would hope that your findings were reported as we would have had any lacks in housekeeping rectified immediately. We have reported your findings and will strive to do better going forward. We are very dog friendly and provide dog washing facilities as well as a dog friendly beach to exercise, I a not sure what else you were expecting? We could have provided towels should you have needed them:)

Liked: Great location - a really short walk to the Norfolk coast.
Disliked: Sadly the site was the worst we have ever stayed on in 16 years!
It was expensive at £230 for 4 nights so we were expecting reasonably good facilities and site condition. We were sorely disappointed.
The site had no hard standing or firm pitches due to the weather softening the ground, so we were requested to camp on the hardcore path, which we duly excepted, although having submitted our vehicle dimensions this could have been communicated before we arrived. It probably wouldn't have changed our minds, however the state of the showers, and general site maintenance would have.
The site was unkempt, with litter, old camping tables, sun brolly and swing ball just left discarded and buried in the lengthy grass. On our second morning we discovered a dead hare just outside our van. Not a pleasant sight but also not great when you have a small terrier on board. I text the site manager who responded - that he 'had missed that', but it wasn't removed and stayed there for our 4 day stay! Lovely! Especially with the flies!!
But the showers really were the low point. They were so dirty, and I'm not fussy, I showered in my crocks! The walls were mouldy, the floor filthy, like a building site. The structure disheveled and the first one I used the water came out of the shower hose not the head. I didn't even venture into the toilets so can't say what they were like!
It was a real shame - It looked like there had been no attempt to regroup after the summer season. And I get that a site in October isn't going to have the bloom of the summer months, but there really is no excuse for the sate we experienced- and paying full season prices!! Really disappointed and would not recommend or ever visit again.

From the manager: Thank you Suzanne for taking the time to leave a review, we are so pleased that you enjoyed our fabulous location here by the beach, we are right on the coast path and the sunset south beach is just a 2 minute walk away. We are so sorry that you had to endure a dead hare by your pitch and the state of the facilities is really inexcusable, I have reported both to maintenance and housekeeping. We are so sorry that on this occasion you did not see us at our best, and thank you for giving us the opportunity to make improvements going forward :)

Liked: We really enjoyed our Campervan stay with our Labradoodle Merlin.
The access to the beach is great, as is the short walk to the pub.the site was tidy and all facilities worked and were clean.the staff were friendly. Two Muntjac deer made a visit to the site, and the site chickens provided impeckable fascination to Merlin as they roam around the site.it felt a million miles away from the rows of static caravans which are only across the road,obscured by the raised road level.We enjoyed our time here and We will return.
Disliked: There was nothing for us to dislike.
