The Old Vicarage Campsite

Liked A great site, tucked away in some lovely countryside. Friendly owner who let me put my motorbike next to my tent, much appreciated. Good facilities and very peaceful. Loved it.

Liked A really nice site for simple camping with a tent. It’s a big space, some nice areas of long grass and hedgerows round the edge. The toilets were clean ( it’s the non flush compostable toilets) and the showers were perfect. There is an area to charge your phone and a small freezer. Half hour drive to stunning beaches, we also enjoyed a day trip to Norwich.

Disliked Although you are in the middle of nowhere it struck me how little wildlife there is - more of the state of the Uk countryside, but no dawn chorus, like most farming areas a wildlife dessert. At night an industrial sounding fan can be heard - I couldn’t hear it in the day, it’s not loud but must be from some unit beyond the fields. Otherwise no complaints.

From the manager: Hi Fibula, thank you taking the time to leave a review. As it is late on in the season, and the driest summer on record, this August has not been the best time to hear the dawn chorus. If you want to hear it in full swing I invite you visit us in May and June. And yes, the fields are bare after harvest and everywhere is looking very dry and crispy this year. A lot of the wildlife has retreated to cooler woodland areas nearby. We've been waiting for rain which has now arrived, and I started planting our winter crops on Monday so things will be coming back to life again soon!

Liked Great family-friendly campsite

We really enjoyed our stay here! There was lots of space, which made the campsite feel relaxed and comfortable. The toilets and showers were clean and well looked after, which is always a big plus.

We also really appreciated the freezer and washing-up area, as well as the charging points — all very handy and made our stay much easier.

Our child especially loved the friendly camping cat, which was definitely one of the highlights! 🐱

Overall, a lovely, clean and well-equipped campsite. We would happily stay here again!

Disliked No blame for campsite, but fire-pit ban ruined late evening vibes.
And we didn’t bring our BBQ as was expecting to get it from site, so had to cook everything on the gas stove.

Liked The facilities were great! I personally loved how they had compost toilets and that they kept them very clean and the process of “flushing” was great aswell.
The showers were great aswell they got warm quickly and had good pressure
Also how calm it was in the area of where the campsite was felt very peaceful

Liked Very relaxed and peaceful site with well maintained facilities and some good suggestions for places to visit (I went to Holt which wasn't on my original plan, and loved it). Great location for exploring the Broads, visiting Norwich and the coast.

Disliked Nothing.

Liked Facilities were brilliant, very clean

Liked The location is excellent if you are looking for a rural campsite, the fields are large and we had lots of space around us, the showers and toilets were clean and well maintained, there was a sink to wash up and power points to charge, it was a lovey stay at the Old Vicarage.

Disliked Due to the weather and it being so hot unfortunately we could not have a firepit for a few nights, for H&S reasons, not the owners fault at all and he communicated really well.

Liked What a gorgeous campsite.
Off grid for the weekend
Only five of us on here
Camper and have a pitch just inside the field so the field isn’t driven on
The campers are given a wheelbarrow to bring their camping things in
The kids love the wheel barrows

The showers are rustic and water warm ( we had a glorious weekend weather wise )
The toilets are a shovel saw dust over your number 2 but well maintained

We were able to have a small fire due to the house fire pits. Logs £6 a bag.
They have an in house resident cat called sprout who adores everyone
And a doggy ( think it’s a Jack Russell ) comes to say hi too.
Washing up facility but no toilet waste disposal…. So if you poo you take it home :) which we did.

The field is well spread out
There was five of us and we all had our own space but people were friends and always stopped to say hi as did the owner too

We came 29/31 May for two nights £48 for the weekend.

Reedham and acle close by
Acle bridge is a definite pub to visit for the food people and the broads

Disliked No shops on site
This isn’t a dislike, this is to make other campers aware to bring all you need
Nothing else to dislike :)
