Black Barn Farm

Positiv Reasonable location on a 1 an hour bus route to Norwich.

Negativ Lack of tourist and travel information, no reception to check in, left to get on with it and find things for ourselves. On a flight path. We arrived at 1610 and found the farm shop closed at 1530, so we could not purchase local produce. Facilities are clean and modern, but there are not enough. There is a disabled toilet but no disabled shower. No wifi.

Positiv One of the best toilets and shower block you will possibly see on a camp site. Also excellent cafe on site with a variety of other shops. Easy access to Norwich by bus.

Negativ We very often have our grandchild with us so would limit our use of this adult only site.

Positiv Lovely quiet site with barn on site for breakfast and shopping. Loved the orchard for dog walks. Nice clean toilets and showers. Level pitches good sized as well.

Positiv Good sized pitches on a clean campsite. Handy having a cafe and farm shop on site. Good location for the Broads

Negativ The wash facilities although spotless were somewhat inadequate. There need to be more of them and they need to give a thought as to how you wash yourself in a tiny wash basin.

Positiv The whole site is lovely with the showers and toilets in the barn which were kept very clean. We only had a 2 night stay so was very nice having the café there on Sunday morning once we'd packed everything away to go and have a very lovely breakfast.

Positiv We had a great week at Black Barn Farm at Salhouse, a few miles east of Norwich. The pitch was spacious, with power and water very close. The toilets were always clean and tidy, and the 2 showers were good, although someone should check the valves as they don't shut off completely. Grey water goes into the hedge, and the black water facility is OK, but open air. Best of all is the barn with its huge upstairs cafe (there's a lift) that serves a wide range of all-day breakfasts and drinks. Downstairs, there's a range of craft boutiques and a splendid butcher/deli. There's free wi-fi in the barn and a good 4G signal on the site (we're with Tesco). There's a farmer's market on the 2nd Saturday of the month. There's a bus stop just up the road - 5B every half hour, and P&R at Sprowston. I thoroughly recommend this site.

Positiv Very peaceful with large pitches. Great location for exploring the area. Facilities were clean and the onsite cafe and shops were fantastic. They even do a menu for dogs! We will certainly let be back.

Negativ Not a dislike but I’m glad I read previous reviews as when I arrived it’s not obvious where to go! So just drive round the right hand side of the barn and the pitches are all behind and you choose your own pitch!
The facilities are under the restaurant! Hope that helps.

Positiv What can’t we like.
Upon arrival we were meeted and greeted by Trevor the manager. He was very knowledgeable about the area. He said we could take a pick of a pitch and we found a really secluded corner.
The weather was so hot and this kept us in the shade for the dog
Each pitch has its own water tap and ehu.
Washing up facilities were above standard.
It is based within the grounds of a shopping mall and garden centre, which visitors came to every day, and breakfast could be smelled cooking from around 7am, so if you wanted to treat yourself, it’s worth while going there.
Every morning we experienced the morning call of the many different kinds of birds, but we love that kind of thing.
It is in an ideal spot for visiting the Broads and there is a pub half an hours walk and a chip shop and Premier supermarket half an hours walk the other way
The showers and toilets are unisex but that was what we knew before we went. Wasn’t a problem. They are private. And probably the best showers we have had.
All in all, it is worth the money we paid and we had a brilliant time
Will be returning

Negativ Couldn’t get Wi-Fi, but yet again, we knew this when booking
To be honest, we made conversation with each other more than we do at home.
5 star for that
