Liked Nice level, mowed pitch with stunning views of the Norfolk countryside and lots of wildlife. Access to the fantastic beach was just across the track and over the sand dunes. The setting is just to die for with some good weather. The owner was very communicative and responsive to some challenges that arose.

Disliked Although the owner had made every effort with the supply of a new toilet and shower block, just two showers and two toilets were insufficient for the number of people camping. Also, the toilets were either blocked, frequently had no toilet paper, or were without light (and had no windows!). We supplied hand soap in each toilet as none was provided. The showers were just about warm but, were tiny, with no room to get changed. I know the facilities are a work in progress and there’s clearly a way to go yet. Wifi signal is exceptionally poor, so be prepared! It’s impossible to get the weather forecast, news, or research local restaurant opening times, or local activity information.

From the manager: Thank you for your comments the toilets blocked is because we’re are in holding tanks and they were but I resolved the problem within the hour and the tanks emptied same day . Toilets rolls yes to start were an issue as because 8 rolls a day and if I put more out they get stolen so I resolved this by replacing with a dispenser and was not an issue again . Toilets lights are on solar and we are getting another battery fitted for back up .thank you for hand wash as i putting a new one out most days and now getting a dispenser fitted for that so solves the issue . Next year there will be urinals for gents so toilets and showers will be more than enough for less than 20pitches I did give you money back as you left early as your friend was going and as a good will gesture and also I let you park an extra car for the duration of your stay which should have been an extra £5 a day as stated on pitch up . You collected several plastic drums from the beach then left for me to dispose off as your properly aware these are difficult to dispose of .

Liked Peaceful, quiet, lovely site and at least some shade during an unprecedented heat wave. Toilets and showers were fine. The pub staff made us very welcome, our whole group ate there on Saturday night and the food was excellent!

Disliked Nothing

Liked Lovely friendly staff at the pub, a super lovely, laid back, atmosphere, a lovely quiet, peaceful, camping site. Great to be able to have a fire and old, aluminium beer barrels cut in half available for this purpose. Also, some chairs available for sitting around the fire. Great real ale and food served in the pub and a fantastic garden, different sitting areas with lovely flowers and a new food/refreshment shack. We’re a small group of women, members of an international motorcycling group. We've been made very welcome for the last three years and hope to return again next year.b

Disliked Toilets and showers just about adequate and clean, but, really need a bit of updating, possibly for next season?

Liked Lovely, laid back, but helpful, staff in the pub, beautiful, quiet, campsite, gorgeous surrounding countryside, near to the National Science museum and Ashburnham house, with its beautiful gardens. Just 7 miles to the beach. Fantastic choice of beers and wonderful pub food. Even the weather was exceptionally kind again (3rd year running). In fact, I was glad I managed to camp where there was a bit of shade! Cant wait to go back!

Disliked Although the shower/ toilet was clean, a fresh shower curtain, would have spruced things up wonderfully. But, its a very small thing, considering how lovely everything else is.

Liked Friendly, helpful, staff. Lovely quiet, well kept, spacious, site. The new washing up area and additional shower, are a definite upgrade, an extra, new, toilet, maybe for next year? Being able to have a small fire is great. Fantastic range of real ales and food at the pub. The new horse box breakfast stall is a cool idea for campers who dont want to cook breakfast. Lovely walks in the countryside, Herstmonceax castle, The Science centre/Royal Observatory and Ashburnham place all close by. Less than 4 miles to the beach, if you fancy a paddle. What more could you want? Been here 4 times now and will definitely return.
