Salhouse Broad's Camping Corner

Liked Not the first time in this camp everything is good this camp is well looked after, kids playground near, ice cream, lake other attractions.

From the manager: Thank you so much for your review!

Liked Ranger very friendly, checked all was okay on first day. Clean portaloos/access to water.

Disliked Not much signage leading to campsite/some signs broken. Wasps in the ground (someone did come to smoke them out but this angered the wasps and several of my party got stung). Uneven ground, holes and whole field on a tilt.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback — we’re glad to hear you found our ranger friendly and appreciated the clean facilities and access to water.

We’re sorry to hear you had a few issues during your stay. Regarding the signage, we do try to provide clear directions in the confirmation email, but we’ll definitely take another look at the on-site signs to improve the arrival experience.

We only became aware of the wasps late on Friday and acted quickly to address the issue, not realising it might aggravate the nest further. We’re truly sorry that some of your party were stung — had we known at the time, we would’ve done our best to support you on site.

As for the ground, we’ve recently moved pitches in the camping area and are still fine-tuning the layout. We do aim to make each pitch as level and comfortable as possible and appreciate your feedback — it helps us improve for future guests.

Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience.

Liked Fabulous little campsite in excellent location. Loved being so close to the Broad where we could launch our SUP and Kayak. Wildlife in abundance. Pub within walking distance. What's not to like???

Also Friendly warden, clean toilets. Good recycling

Disliked Nothing at all!

From the manager: Thank you so much for your review - we really appreciate it!

Liked It's a nice and quiet campsite. Very basic. Portable toilets vere clean enough. Fire pits available for use. Very close to the Broad and you can launch for free if you are staying at the campsite.

Disliked Lack of any kind of sink to clean anything or even brush teeth.

From the manager: Thanks Poitr, we are a basic campsite and we're glad the positives outweighed the negatives for you. We hope to see you again soon!

Liked peaceful and picturesque site with plenty of wildlife and easy access to the Salhouse Broad.

Disliked composting toilet is definitely something to be experienced and not for the squeemish.

From the manager: Thanks for the review. You'll be relieved to hear we will be replacing the composting toilet soon!

Liked Very natural and peaceful. Like wild camping - which is what we wanted - but with a loo, drinking water and peace of mind. Very lovely location just yards from the Broad. Easygoing site manager.

From the manager: Thanks Kate, we're happy you enjoyed your stay here and look forward to seeing you again sometime.

Liked Beautiful location just metres from the broad. Very friendly ranger on duty. Hired a canoe next morning for a paddle round (discount for using public transport). Facilities are limited (no showers) but the location makes up for it.

From the manager: Thank you for your review! We're glad you enjoyed your stay and paddle.

Liked Beautiful picturesque location adjacent to Salhouse broad. Great for wildlife observation. Adequate portable toilets which are kept clean.

Disliked Close proximity to footpath making it a bit noisy at times. Also there is a locked gate at the site entrance with a code for access for campers, but there’s a gate at the bottom for anyone to enter from the public footpath, so the security measures were a bit pointless. Having no vehicle access to the site makes it a bit difficult if you have a lot of gear to carry across from the car park to your pitch.

From the manager: Thanks for taking the time to review us. I know it seems strange to have only one locked gate; from experience the locked gate is where members of the public try to get access, however, we take note of your feedback. We also note your comment about carrying your gear across the campsite. We're glad you enjoyed your stay regardless and would come again.

Liked Quiet campsite, pretty views and we rented a canoe which was great!

Disliked Signage for the rangers hut could be better but apart from that nothing

From the manager: Thanks Molly, we're glad you enjoyed your stay. I have noted your comment about signage and we will do something about it.

Liked The proximity to Salhouse Broad. The pitches were reasonably level. The ranger Bill was very helpful and friendly. I liked the way the site was well off the road and protected by a lock on the access gate. Toilets clean, grass a good length and plenty of bins. The close proximity of the Hungry Otter van very handy for snacks and coffee. What more could you want?

From the manager: Thanks David, please come again!
