North Norfolk Camping and Glamping

Liked: Absolutely beautiful scenery of the lake, if you like your walks there is a nice walk nearby the campsite, called holt country park. Toilets and other necessities are well organised and clean. Communication from the owner is well informative and polite. Thank you for having us !

From the manager: Thank you Arijus for your brilliant review of our rural North Norfolk Campsite, we are so pleased that you enjoyed our natural lakeside views, there are walks straight from the site and Holt Country Park is not to be missed. Our back-to-basic facilities are perfect for wild campers, and our dog-friendly and campfire-friendly pitches are just what campers need to get back to nature. it was a pleasure to host you and we very much look forward to seeing you again very soon here with us in North Norfolk :)

Liked: It’s definitely away from the crowds, only one other campervan there.

Disliked: It has an unfinished feel. It would really benefit from some signage and a simple site map. It’s an unmanned site and there are no signs anywhere to help you figure out what’s what (eg which taps are drinking water or where you can make a fire, which wood to use etc) or where to park/pitch. There is also no power/electricity anywhere on site, not even in the toilet block, so a headtorch is essential. There are many other sites that offer lit toilet blocks and EHUs for a lot less, so this felt v expensive for what you get. There’s also quite a lot of random piles of ‘stuff’ lying about that is unsightly. It’s a good spot and the basics are there…it just needs tidying up and finishing off to warrant the price tag. We foolishly paid extra for a pitch for a camper ‘with awning’ thinking it would ensure we got allocated a bigger pitch, but there are no marked pitches at all…just a couple of areas where you park anywhere, so it felt a swizz to have paid extra.

From the manager: Thank you Ros for your great review of North Norfolk Camping & Glamping, we are so pleased that you enjoyed the peace and quiet of our rural location in the countryside of Norfolk.

Our site is still being updated and we hope the work did not impede the peace of your stay, it was a pleasure to host you and we very much look forward to seeing you again very soon :)

Liked: We had an amazing time at North Norfolk Camping. The host was ready to meet us when we arrived and showed us around the site. Our pitch was perfect! We had an amazing view of the lake and the entire 15 acres to ourselves! It's unfortunate to hear there are bad reviews for this site, we felt it had all the best parts of wild camping with facilities! The skies were clear and dark and we could hear owls in the distance. We had a really magical time and are looking forward to our next stay :)

From the manager: Thank you Greg for your great review of North Norfolk Camping & Glamping, we are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay here with us in the rural Norfolk Countryside close to Holt, our back to basic in the wild campsite is ideal for campers who want peace and quiet away from hussle and bustle. We very much look forward to seeing you again very soon :)

Liked: The setting was really beautiful. Toilets were clean.

Disliked: No where to really camp, the grounds all too soft and Carol wouldn’t let us camp anywhere. Only one side of the lake is usable. And not even close to the lake. Space really for 4 family sized tents and a couple of campers. Chose to book a large pitch so we had more space as a family, cost over £160 for 2 nights for family of 4. Very expensive compared to other campsites. It’s half finished. Defo wouldn’t put any part of your body in the lake, as advertised. All the pics used to advertise the site are NOT of that campsite, expect one. Very very misleading. Poked my head in one of the bell tents available to hire, it was mouldy with a mouldy mattress. Also no firewood for sale as advertised. Really disappointing that was so misleading when I booked. Could be an awesome site but it’s not ready, or reduce the cost to be on par with other campsites. This is nothing special for the price. I didn’t even want to leave a review but no one replied to my email!

From the manager: Thank you Claire for taking the time to leave a review, our rural campsite surrounds natural ponds full of wildlife and offers camping and glamping to all, we are dog friendly and allow campfires, there is ample space for tents and vans and with the weather we have had this year the ground has been soft. Our Back to the wild campsite is suited more to those who want to camp without all the frills of holiday parks and to have peace and quiet. We are sorry that you did not enjoy your stay and it is a shame that you would not return :(

Liked: Great camping site! It was easy to find. The facilities were clean and the showers had hot water. There was a space to clean your dished. We also had acces to fresh drinkable water. The camping space had a great view onto the lakes in the middle. We came with a sports car and didn't had any problems driving on that country road even after a strong rain😊. The pitch was leveled and it was easy to set up the tents and securing them. There was barely any phone signal but that can be a good thing if you want to enjoy the nature. If you do really need it you only need to drive a couple of minutes to the nearest village The hosts were very friendly and we look forward to go back there
