What customers say
Spacious sites, spotless amenities, and a friendly vibe. Great value, handy bar/eats, and top fishing! Some noise/facility limits at busy times, but overall a ripper spot for a relaxed break.

The area and the atmosphere of…
Power optional grass caravan site
Liked The area and the atmosphere of the whole place was lovely. Everyone was lovely and the the bar and restaurant area was so cosy.
Despite us arriving when food was stopping serving the took our orders promptly, and it came out in no time at all. Delicious food, with generous portion sizes.
Everyone seemed to know each other so it had a really homely feeling.
Toilet/shower facilities very clean and evidently monitored regularly.
Disliked If I'm being really nitpicky, the area could have a better lighting system to navigate back to your camping areas. With one dim phone torch light between two people was quite difficult when the whole area was im complete darkness while coming back from the resturant.

Fab u lous!
Power optional grass caravan site
Liked Lovey flat pitches, very big and well spaced. Loads of pitches to choose from, some very close to the fishing lakes. Great to have a firepit. Nice clean showers, one older bock and one very new. All very clean. Others have complained about lighting on site at night, but you have to remember this site is a fishery first and foremost so light would affect night fishing. Having a bar and cafe on site is wonderful, the food was really nice and reasonably priced. I would recommend this site. Great Butchers in Downham Market, Goddard of Norfolk, lovely rib cap burgers.
Disliked Nothing

Great fishing.
Power optional grass caravan site
Liked Very clean and tidy site, nice flat spacious pitches near to the fishing lakes. A plus having a cafe and bar on site, serving good food. Clean and well kept toilet and shower facilities. I would highly recommend this site. Good fishing options with 5 lakes to choose from. Cabins look really nice and are well spaced out.
Disliked Nothing at all to dislike.

A warm welcome, pitches are level, facilities clean and tidy.
Power optional grass caravan site
Liked We stayed here for a motorcycle show with bands. and loved the location and layout of the site, we stayed in the Scrumpy field, toilets and shower block were an easy walk and always clean and well stocked. There is a cafe and bar/clubhouse on site both at reasonable prices. The Norfolk coast is only a 35 min drive.
Disliked Nothing.

Very good site, good sized pitches and excellent base for exploring
Power optional grass tent site
Liked Very well kept site and reasonable priced. Camping pitches were a generous size. Staff were very friendly and Lisa gave us a lovely welcome when we checked in and gave us a good run down about the site and facilities.Unused electricity refunded on check out. Good clean facilities which were kept nice and warm and cleaned to a very good standard. Hubbles restaurant served lovely cooked food throughout most of the day and evening, they even do themed nights. They serve everything from a fantastic breakfast to a most enjoyable Sunday lunch (all of which we sampled). Rondos bar is a nice place to relax and enjoy a drink or two.
They have 5 fishing lakes (however the water level was low due to the long dry summer, so was out of Fendicks control). We did fish for 2 days and had a few catches. 2 of the lakes have to be booked so we didn’t try these out. We will definitely return as we had a really enjoyable and relaxing time. Fendicks also host various events throughout the year and whilst we were there they had the Wicked Wheelers bike show on over 2 days which was free of charge and we spent the weekend looking around it and listening to the live music .
Would definitely recommend this site as a good base for exploring north Norfolk as well.
Disliked Only one small thing , it would have been nice to have a plug in the washroom facilities so hairdryers and straighteners could be used whilst having access to the mirrors.

Super overnight stay in cosy cabin
The Suffolk Horn cabin
Liked Super little one night stay. Easy to find and park and access the cabin. Warm dry comfy and cosy. Liked the picnic table outside and the microwave and kettle were much appreciated ( not in all shepherds huts you stay in) great WiFi even though it wasn’t mentioned in the info. Super little find would definitely stay again.
Disliked Would have liked something in the cabin to transport water with. Luckily I had my drinks bottle - otherwise not sure what I would have done.
