Electric optional grass touring pitch

Liked: Quietness and pub in village!

Disliked: Being supervised whilst we set up as owner who said that ‘people are stupid’. Having caravans for over 20years, don’t appreciate being considered as ‘Stupid’. Toilets are basic - made in a shipping container…. Cold dark and no hot water in ladies. It’s a nature site so be ready for the noise of the geese!! Not a problem to us but others may find it annoying early morning.

Electric optional grass touring pitch

Liked: Nice and quiet .

Disliked: The site is getting a bit scruffy . the lakes were untidy and the platoon , which would be nice to stand on was very rotten . Fallen trees in the ponds looked untidy and it all looked stagnant ! I kept my Labradors away from water (for the first time !).

Route directions

Please do not go to Farman Close: this is the office address and has no entrance to the site. The site is at Richmond place, Lyng. Travelling on the A47 from Dereham to Norwich, there is a slip road on the left signposted North Tuddenham. Take the slip road and leave the A47. When you reach the T-junction turn right and continue into Lyng (be careful: the satnav can send you the wrong way). At a staggered crossroad turn right and then turn left immediately past the shop. Drive slowly and look out for a road on your left past an old house. Continue up the drive up to our entrance.

Local attractions

Fishing fans should head to the fishery at Swanton Morley, 10 minutes’ drive from Utopia Paradise Caravan Park, to see if they can land themselves some carp, roach or pike from the lakes and rivers. Utopia Paradise is 40 minutes from the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and less than an hour from the start of the Norfolk coast path, so get your walking boots on. If you’d prefer a less outdoorsy experience, get your fix of stately homes and spectacular gardens at Blickling Estate, Felbrigg Hall, Brancaster Estate and Oxburgh Hall, all within 45 minutes’ drive of Utopia Paradise. A 30-minute drive will bring you to the city of Norwich, where you can roam its medieval streets, visit the castle, explore its museums and galleries, then wear out your credit card in the shops and restaurants. Banham Zoo is less than 45 minutes from Utopia Paradise – you can also take a trip to the Thursford Steam Museum, 15 minutes’ drive from the site, for a ride on the stunning fairground carousel and the gondola.
